Is Caller Display free or not free for 12 months?

When BT announced there would be a charge of £1.75 pm for Caller Display, they also stated this service would be free for 12 months if the subscriber renewed their contract for one year. i rang BT and agreed to take up the offer.
I have looked at the past 2 bills and they have the following line entries. Here's the latest bill, word for word:
1. BT Privacy at Home - Caller Display   28 Apr - 27 May 14 
This is the cost of your BT Privacy at Home - Caller Display up to 27 May 2014 at £1.75 a month    £1.75
2. BT Privacy with Caller Display free for 12 months 28 Apr - 27 May 14   £0.00
I queried the £1.75 charge shown on line 1. via BT online webchat and here's BT's response, again word for word:
"BT Privacy With Caller Display is free but for BT Privacy at Home you will be charged £1.75"
You will notice that in their reply they have omitted 'Caller Display' after 'at Home' although the bill clearly shows this at line 1. above.
Can somebody please tell me should I be paying £1.75 a month? If this is so then will line 2. revert to a further £1.75 after the 12 month's expiry which will mean £3.50 a month in total'.
I just thought as a simpleton that I was getting Caller Display entirely free for 12 months by signing a new contract. Maybe life is not that simple?

john46: You state "to put it very simply the 1.75 is charged on one line and credited back on the next line".
Well it isn't. Had there had been such a credit on the bill I would not have raised a bill query with BT or this forum.
Below is my total bill where you can see I have no credit shown. It all adds up to £34.50 including the £1.75 Caller Display fee.
I cannot get a reply out of BT or even an acknowledgement to my email querying the charge. What do you suggest I do? Send a specific mail giving them 7 days' notice that I will cancel the Direct Debit and send a cheque less the missing credits, if I don't receive a satisfactory answer?
Your reply and those of the 2 other respondents now confirm that there should be a credit line of £1.75.
Whatever happens you have proven BT owes me £1.75 for each month this has occurred. May I therefore use your name and your answer in a further email to BT? It will be interesting to see if that prompts a response.
Line Rental
28 Apr - 27 May 14 £0.00
Barring withheld calls
28 Apr - 27 May 14 This is the cost of your Barring withheld calls charged in advance (£4.75 a  month) £4.75

BT Privacy with Caller Display free for 12 months 28 Apr - 27 May 14 £0.00

  • Ipod touch 2g not used for months, battery drained and taking way too long to charge

    I had an ipod touch 2g that got wet a couple of months ago. They were inside a jacket pocket when the rain started pouring. After that, the screen only turn white when turned on. I just had the LCD replaced, but since i havent used it in months, the battery has been drained. I plugged it into my PC to charge for a couple of hours already, but its still not enough. The lowbatt icon is there, but iTunes still doesnt recognize it despite being plugged in for a few hours already.
    Does it really take this long to charge an ipod touch that has been completely drained and not used for months? I'm worried there might be other problems besides the LCD when it got wet before. Should I have it checked again for battery charging problems? Or am i just being impatient?

    I tried charging it through the adapter, still got the same problem. So i had it checked again and the battery apparently also needed to be replaced. Haven't had any problems with it since then!

  • Requested auto spell check not worked for months - gmail uses Firefox's

    Tools Advanced setting is on auto spell check but has not worked for months - yes it had worked, probably for years. Looking at gmail for an auto spell checker I see that it leaves that to one's browser - Firefox.

    Your More system details list doesn't show the en-GB dictionary.
    If you do not have the en-US locale then check that you have a dictionary installed (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and selected.
    You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.<br />
    Also make sure that [X]"Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu has a tick.<br />
    You can also try to toggle the "Check Spelling" item off and on again.

  • Free songs not free?

    I always like to hit the "Free on iTunes" every week. Have found some cool new artists that way. But the last couple of weeks, songs/videos that appear in the "Free on iTunes", when clicked, are NOT free. Last week I ended up paying for a video that was suppose to be "Free". At least, one would assume it is supposed to be free since it appears in the section, "Free on iTunes".
    This week, two of the items in the "Free on iTunes" section are not "free". If you click the "View" button to look at the details, the download button shows a charge. One is $0.99; the other $1.29. If they aren't free, why are they even showing up in the "Free on iTunes" section. I don't mind paying for music when I want it. But when I'm offered something for "free" and then charged for it, that seems a bit deceptive.
    Anyone else annoyed by this?

    It would appear that the iPod hard drive or iPod software has become corrupt. This doesn't mean that the songs are not on your iPod, hence the fact that the iPod reports used space and iTunes may show them.
    You should restore the iPod and then reload the songs from iTunes.

  • Caller Display etc. requested, not got.

    How long should it take to get Caller Display once the order has been placed? I requested this service last Wednesday, 04/02/2015 along with my BT Sport and Entertainment pack (my BB was installed on 02/02/2015) I was told it would take 24 hours to initiate all three services. As they never appeared, I have been calling daily to find out what has happened to these items and the answer is always it will take 24 hours. Untill that is, I received a call about an hour ago to tell me that my Sport and Entertainment pack will not be available until the 12th and the Caller Display will not be ready untill the 18th! Is this the normal level of service from BT?

  • HT204266 When is a Free App not Free?

    According to Apps Gone Free, 'Pure Meditation-Premium' should be free, but when I go to itunes it is $1.99.   Will I be charged if I download it?

    Pure Meditation Premium shows as being $1.99 for me as well, so it is not free. It would appear that Apps Gone Free is wrong or out of date.

    Hi, Zachary here from Evolved. I saw your post wanted to let you know that the iTunes radio station listing under 'electronica' for Evolved is now working properly. The forums on evolved radio have URL and help info but I saw your post on the Apple discussions here and wanted to reply. You can now just find us in the iTunes listings there and click it or use the following. You can also paste these URL's into iTunes under advanced > open URL. Don't hesitate to email me for any questions.

  • Out of office/free busy not working for Outlook 2013

    Hi!  I have a user on our network that cannot use Out of office or see free/busy information in meeting requests.  We have hundreds of working 2010 clients but this one is 2013 and NOT a member of our domain.  They are connected to exchange
    and can do anything except the above.  When I do a test of email autoconfiguration it just fails.  DNS resolution is working fine but it can't connect to the server for these two functions only.  Any articles I can find assume the user is remote
    and outside the network but he is connected internally.  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Please switch to Outlook 2010 client and login OWA to check this issue.
    The Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Availability service makes free/busy information available to Outlook client. Then Outlook uses the Exchange Server 2010 Autodiscover service to obtain the URL of the Availability service. As you
    mentioned, it failed to do a test of email autoconfiguration. So I suggest the following methods for troubleshooting
    Please switch to Outlook 2010 client and login OWA to check this issue.
    Have you configured
    Autodiscover Service for Internet Access?
    Use Test-OutlookWebServices cmdlet to
    verify that the Autodiscover service settings for Outlook clients are configured correctly.

  • Broadband + Anytime: free or not free for three mo...

    I recently tried to upgrade online to BTs 'Broadband + Anytime', currently £16 per month (+ rental) and free for the first three months.
    When I get to the online 'Order Summary' page, it lists an item described as 'Phone' at a cost of £3 per month (in the first three months), but it doesn't say what this is for.
    Chatting online to an advisor revealed that this only happens if you already have an 'add-on' on your existing BT account for the line you want to upgrade to the new package. Yet, I have no 'add-ons' on that account and nobody at BT can tell me why the first three months isn't actually free, but will cost me £3 per month if I continue to sign up online!
    Does anybody here have any ideas what the £3 / month might be for??
