Dialup premium alerter from BT prevents huge phonebills

When you’re connected to the Internet with your dial-up connection, problems can occur if you unknowingly download an Internet ‘dialler’, which changes the way that you connect to the Internet.

This could result in your dial-up number being changed to an international or premium rate number, giving you higher than average phone bills.

BT Privacy Online will help protect your computer from such scams while you are using your dial-up connection. It gives you:

  • Modem Protection software to help keep your modem safe from malicious Internet ‘diallers’
  • SMS alerts to let you know if there has been any unusual activity on your account

And what’s more it’s FREE.


For more details and to download this very usefull tool if you still use a dial-up modem to connect to the internet visit the BT Modem Protection website.

For a subscription free dial-up account at lo-call rates (0845) visit Value Dial Up.
