BT Wholesale and Conservative leader David Cameron are among the nominees for the Internet Service Providers Association (ISPA) net villains of 2007.

BT earns its place on the roll of dishonour for "changing the whole engineering plan for 21CN [BT's next-generation broadband network] only six months before the launch date." BT announced last summer that it was changing the way customers will be migrated to the new network, causing consternation among ISPA members.

The new plans, according to ISPA, mean that ISPs can no longer migrate customers to 21CN in one, easy block, but have to do so one-by-one. ISPA also claims the lead time from ordering 21CN to actually being connected to the network has leapt from one day to 15-30 days. BT wasn't prepared to comment at the time of publication.
