BT teams with Microsoft to give customers access to Xbox Series X

BT broadband customers can purchase Xbox Series X | S through their MyBT account from today 

BT has today announced a new partnership with Microsoft for the launch of their new Xbox next-gen consoles. The partnership will see BT Broadband and EE customers receive access to the Xbox Series X | S consoles, subject to availability.

BT Broadband customers can purchase the Xbox Series X | S, plus a range of games and accessories through their MyBT account.

Existing EE pay monthly mobile customers will also have the option to take out one of the consoles and add the cost to their price plan, split over 11 interest-free instalments with EE’s Add to Plan service.

BT’s director of devices and partnerships for its consumer division Alistair Wilson said: “In the world of online gaming a win or loss can be measured in milliseconds, as a result, gamers stand to benefit from the ultra-responsive, super-fast connectivity that BT fibre and EE’s 5G service gives them.

“By working with console manufacturers such as Microsoft, we’re helping support gamers so they can ensure they’re getting the very most from their gaming experience.”
