BT Retail has become the only UK ISP to hit the 4 million customer milestone,
and the a staggering increase of 2,000 a day Over the past five years BT's broadband
customer base has been growing at a rate of one customer every 40 seconds,
growing from 172,000 back in June 2002.
While this growth has been in individual
new customers the telco's purchases have helped along
the way, for example it's purchase of PlusNet netted it an extra 190,000
customers overnight.
"Four million customers is a great achievement in such a short time.
Broadband has proved to be one of the most popular new services ever
seen. It is already delivering next generation television, inclusive
free phone calls in high definition sound and great value mobile
calls,"
"Broadband can provide so many more services than just internet surfing and
it has become central to many people's lives and businesses. Customers want to
take advantage of the potential of broadband and need a high quality, reliable
service." |
