I've been a member and occasional user of Business Ready, a program available in EMEA that gives a discount on flexible rate and breakfast for 1. I've had an email announcing that is closing and being replaced by "Business Access", which is apparently global.
The new program gives a discount (SMB rate) and a load of business admin tools. Does anyone know what discount the SMB rate gets, or whether there is any other positive to this change aside from the wider geographical area?
