Need to stay in touch with family and friends and want something more personal than email? With Yahoo! Messenger, you can instantly connect with friends and family over the internet and you can 'chat' with them in real time.
And if both parties have a webcam and headset, a microphone and speakers or a USB phone - they're easy to set up - you can have a live two-way face-to-face conversation with friends and relatives. Or you can use a webcam to monitor your home or business via the internet while you're away, giving you peace of mind.
BT Broadband Talk allows you to make and receive calls over the internet using a phone connected to your BT Home Hub or router. You gain a virtual second line with a separate phone number and can make inclusive UK1 Evening and Weekend calls and get great low international call rates2.
Talk to friends and family face to face. Upgrade your BT Broadband Talk account with a BT Videophone and make high quality video calls to other Videophone or BT Softphone users. Video calls within your BT Broadband Talk calling plan are charged at 10p a minute3.
Straightforward, jargon-free advice and support over the phone whenever you need it.
