I have bt at home and phonecoop at work. I have used phonecoop for three years and the service has been outstanding. Over the years I have got to know the folks who work there and usually recognise who I am talking to. The service is brilliant and I would wholeheartedly recommend them. A guy I work with has just ordered phonecoop for his home after getting it at work. BT however, will not be getting my custom anymore. I will be gone as soon as possible.
