BT Total Broadband customers who have iPhone or Android mobiles will be able to get an app that will connect their phones to free unlimited Wi-Fi connections.
The app, called the BT FON app will notify users of the nearest WiFi hot spot to them, users will then be able to enter their email address and password and select if they want to automatically be logged in to a BT Wi-Fi area.
Being connected to these WiFi areas will save customers money as the access to BT FON and BT Openzone is free for BT Total broadband customers and there are 1.6 million of the Wi-Fi hot sports avialable worldwide.
The app will not only auto sign usesr into available Wi-Fi networks when they become ava\ilable but will also provide a map view so you can see where there is available access points close by.
What’s more, BT are donating 50p for every BT FON app that is downloaded (up to a maximum of £10,000) so providing 20,000 people download the app then BT will be paying up the full amount to BBC Children in Need.
There’s a lot of mouths dieing to blabb that BT has a mobile phone app for connecting to Wi-Fi spots around UK.
Hey we know that ! shut up stop clogging the internet with usless information and open sites for us to download it for christ sake is the system any good or is it just another con.
I was told I could recieve 20 meg speed total broadband and I jumped in the 12 month contract with both feet only to find its a big laugh on me and the consumer and if you cancle your hit with a £5oo bill. Your lucky if you get 10mg I only get abour 3meg. So BT befor you bring out new products to rip more money out off us don’t they think this system of 20meg broadband speed we are offered should be 20 and not a meg less. I for one can’t wait to through there junk out after there contract is up.
I believe Nokia has it right for once and done all Nokia fans a big favor and that’s leave this cr_p off there phones using the Sympian Software. DONT DOWNLOAD THE BT Wi-Fi APP. VIRUS WILL SPEAD LIKE THE WIND AND FREE TO TRAVEL ONE END OF THE COUNTRY TO THE OTHER IN SECONDS DAMAGING EVERYTHING IT TOUCHES. BE WARNED !
