On the flip side their most recent financial results showed a sharp -16,000 quarterly decline in the BT TV customer base (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2018\/05\/bt-cut-13k-jobs-raise-3-7bn-to-boost-fttp-broadband-and-mobile.html\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The news will no doubt do little to dampen complaints from some quarters, not least over the ever increasing price of being able to access and view all of this content.
