Looks like fun, no?

Where is hubris when you need it?

Currently EE has displaced our actual internet connection with BT to come up first when connecting pc to wifi. This immediately takes you to a my EE subscription service and asks for money even though we already pay BT for the service. This sharp practice confuses anyone who is digitally challenged.
