It's not really a case of us having the nerve to charge for something. Caller Display, as with pretty much anything in our Business Model is charged for because Openreach charge us to supply it.

But, to be honest, I think you could have got away with adding at the onset for everyone and adding the cost to the initial price. I know not everyone wants it, but then it could be listed as a FREE service
Oh and as a PS, I am sure there are still loads of BT customers paying the additional fee for caller display as BT have never told those paying it that is free if you ask for the "security package" - we were paying extra for a few years until someone mentioned it to me.

As otherwise it seems that BT are getting a £1.50 a month advantage, as anyone wanting to switch needs to factor that into account. In my case it makes it such a marginal saving going to PlusNet Anytime over BT that I am still dithering.

I am with BT and have Caller Display and Voicemail - both free as part of BT Privacy. Plusnet would charge £2/month for these. Until Plusnet remove this charge it will not be cost effective foe me to move.

Option 2 on BT is £13.95
With PN the equivalent, including voicemail and caller display, is £11.99.
Option 3 on BT is £18.45, the PlusNet equivalent including caller display and voicemail cost £17.
The only time it would cost more is if you're on BT Option 1 but PN don't do a package equivalent to that (4.5p per hour package with no inclusive calls) as the base £9.99 package includes evening and weekend calls (equivalent to Option 2).

So adding another £1.50 a month for caller display makes it it harder to call.
But I would still be interested to see BTs internal charging for these features investigated.

So with PlusNet Anytime at £45 per 1/4, plus £4.50 for caller display it really is close (this ignores the non geographic and mobile calls)
THe only advantage of PlusNet or BT option 3 is that our bill is more or less a certain amount and we then can use it more during the day with no worries
Cheers

[We use VOIP at the current voip.co.uk cost of 2p per hour (yes per hour) during the day. (fee of 20 pounds per year) Free calls in the evening and at weekends. 2p per min to the USA with no connection fees.]
So BT is cheaper.................
