how to wind up customers

please sort out your website and stop misleading customers , with regards to home phone call features if you access call feature page from phone bill it lists special offers for call feature packages , under standard feature list it clearly shows annonymous call as a standard feature. hence bundleable for special offer . NOWHERE ON THAT PAGE does it suggest that this feature is not includable as it is listed under standard and not additional.When customer phones up and trys to point this out it is not very good to suggest that "we do not get in arguement over couple of pounds"
In the spirit of this can i have my internet for £3.50 next month instead of £15.99 as we dont need to argue over a few pounds  Grin ;D.
ps
the money is being refunded and i have cancelled the feature so sorted as far as we are concerned but the website needs to be made much clearer to avoid others being misled.

Hiya,
Could you possibly give me the link and quote where it says that anonymous call reject is supplied as included?

Re: how to wind up customers

As far as I can follow what you've said I get to this page, where Anonymous Call clearly has £4.00 a month next to it, as attached.  Is that where you are looking?

Re: how to wind up customers

I agree Phil,  but the OP's point is that despite it's posted 'one off'  charge of £4, it appears in a list of 'Standard features' and is not excluded from the Bundling offer?
I believe the OP is correct.  ACR as offered currently needs to have a note excluding it from any bundled price.

Argh, right, I understand now.  I misread it as the OP thought it was not chargeable!  Yes, I agree now as well!

Re: how to wind up customers

I've just had a play about with the call features in my control panel (without ordering any!!) - ACR is always charged at £4 irrespective of bundling of other features.  It would appear that it should be listed under "Advanced Features" along with Voicemail Extra.
As it stands it would suggest that it would be available for less than £4 if you took ACR plus Caller ID for example (i.e. two features for £3.00).

Re: how to wind up customers

Would it be better named 'Standard Call Options'
