You don't get anything for free these days, not even Freeview television. But BT is looking to cut the cost of getting on the scene because the BT Vision service is now available to self-install, cutting out the middle man.

For just £30 customers will be able to join in the delights of on-demand and free-to-view television by installing it themselves, rather than paying the usual £60 installation fee.

The Self Install option includes a pair of Comtrend Powerline Adaptors, which plug into wall power sockets and carry the video signal from the BT Home Hub to the V-box across the domestic power circuit.

Dan Marks, BT Vision's CEO seems to think it's a great deal: "We know that most people have their main TV in the living room and their PC elsewhere in the home.

By using the Powerline adaptors, customers can connect the V-box to their BT Home Hub wherever it is in the home without requiring an engineer visit."

And just in case your're DIY phobic, fear not. The process, according to BT takes no time at all. So what're you waiting for, you can order yours from here.
