BT and Yahoo?!
 

Is it just me - or does anyone else get totally confused by the whole BT Yahoo thing.

I am a BT Total Broadband customer and if I need to change my email settings I need to log into BTYahoo. From there it is a mystery. I am suddenly in the middle of a bunch of Yahoo links for whom I am not a customer and that do not relate to what I want to do.

I really don't get why as a BT customer it forces me to be a Yahoo customer for a whole bunch of things I have not signed up for or have no interest in. Finding the BT settings to change is a bluddy nightmare!

Yup, and you need a bt email address, and a bt yahoo email address IIRC

Bt were sending my bills to one of them (the one i never used after signing up) and i remember some kind of PITA thing happening because of this.

IIRC they also spaminstall some crap yahoo software when you use the homehub, i HATE products that do that :mad:

I'm with BT and they gave me an email address. Just signed in and set it up so any emails get forwarded to my proper email address. Works a treat.

Only thing is I need to try to sign in to a previous BT account and remove that one as, even though I stopped the Bt contract about 7 years ago, the email still exists and I got a forwarded email from it ....

Oh, and never install an ISP's SW. Just get your own router and set it up yourself.

I'm with BT and i never installed the softwar that came with the hub. I just connected it to my laptop and away i went :D

Ditto :thumb:

BT Yahoo is nothing to do with the Homehub :)
