Before this Christmas, on 9th December, BT has become the first ISP to have five million customers in the UK. Elizabeth Patterson, a chip shop worker from East Kilbride, Glasgow is the five millionth customer of BT.

BT awarded their five millionth broadband customer with an attractive luxury trip.  During the trip to Canada, she can also watch Winter Olympics at Vancouver. Mrs. Patterson showed her gratitude and said that being never to Canada before; she would like to have the trip. She added that she had signed up for broadband for purchasing Christmas presents and to help her son with his education.

John Petter, managing director of BT’s Consumer division said that with this, BT is never going to stop the unending quest for making new plans and getting broadband cheaper. BT is preparing way to meet six million customers. He added that within two years, BT will get the next one million customers.

Mr. Petter added that Broadband has got an immense power to transform people’s life. More than 14 million customers in the UK are depending on Broadband for various purposes, this is a proof for this.

He then mentioned about the next mission ‘Project Canvas’ which was to launch soon in partnership with BBC, ITV, Five, Channel 4 and TalkTalk. Already, people of the UK are enjoying high facilities and low rates because of the high completions between ISPs. By the launch of Project Canvas the coming year, broadband customers of BT can enjoy iPlayer and ITVPlayer in their TV set.
