First of all unlike you I was not moaning, I was pointing out what you could do as regards Yahoo and what BT have done with regards to BTMail and what they may do in future to BTMail.
Secondly if you care to read the multiple threads on this board Home phone including Digital Voice - BT Community you will see that what you have posted about Digital Voice has been covered in multiple threads numerous times so you may wish to read some of them to see what BT are doing to mitigate your comments about power cuts, which I'm sure you will be aware also affects people who presently use cordless phones when there is a power cut.
You're priceless 😂 Of course a cordless phone won't work in a power cut! Hence anyone with any foresight for emergencies will have a proper corded phone (like me, mum, friends & family). BTs solution is to offer a 'power pack' which will have a 2 hour duration - told to me my BT themselves when I discussed the issue of the vulnerability of mum.
Fairly useless if she's asleep when powercut starts, and has need of the phone when waking. (Battery will be long dead)
Look, I appreciate you could care less about the issue, but I found her 3 years ago collapsed on the floor from a stroke, there was a powercut at the time which may or may not have impacted on her fall, we still don't know. The point is I was able to lift her phone and dial 999 which absolutely saved her life. Next year, I won't have that option, as I can't even use my mobile as there is no signal.
Like I said, no one will care over this until the Daily Mail report the 1st death.
Note to moderator - please delete this if you wish, out of character I am writing this out of sheer anger & frustration...
