BT - true costs of call diverting

Hello, new here, have been trying to get the cost of call divert from BT. I know it costs £1.75 per month as part of a package, but I have had 2 different prices fromthem for connection charge and also cost per minute, so am no further on. I have been offered a better package with another firm, but the call divert costs are avery important part of this. Anyone any ideas?
Also - is it true connection charges are going up to 6p. in August - even if on option 3?
 
Currently the connection setup for non-inclusive calls is 3p and yes it will increase to 6p. The pence per minute is made up by you paying the diverted part of the call (as if you called yourself) at whatever rate your option provides for that call type and time of day.

Here are some basic examples:

A:
Imagine you’re on BT Together Option 1 with call-divert, diverting to another landline. If someone calls you in the day (i.e. after 6am but before 6pm Mon - Fri) and the caller gets diverted to the other landline and talks to you for 10 minutes. This call cost is the normal 3ppm as its on option 1 plus setup.

3p setup + 30p call time = 33p

B:
Imagine you’re on BT Together Option 3 with call-divert, diverting to another landline. If someone calls you in the day (i.e. after 6am but before 6pm Mon - Fri) and the caller gets diverted to the other landline and talks to you for 10 minutes. This call cost is the normal 0ppm as its on option 3 and is inclusive and not subject to setup.

0p setup + 0p call time = 0p

C:
Imagine you’re on any BT Together Option (without call-mobile option) with call-divert, diverting to a mobile. If someone calls you in the day (i.e. after 6am but before 6pm Mon - Fri) and the caller gets diverted to the mobile and talks to you for 10 minutes. This call cost is the normal 13ppm for daytime mobiles regardless of option and is subject to setup.

3p setup + 130p call time = 133p aka £1.33
