The telecoms giant shortlisted Starcom Digital, Zed Media, MOne and one unknown agency, believed to be All Response, for the account.
A consortium of The Allmond Partnership and digital specialist Profero were eliminated from a longlist of agencies. Unique Digital was also asked to pitch but declined.
Zed Media will take over the account from i-level in July. The agency had held the BT account for five years, but resigned it in April after winning the £8m digital planning and buying business for Orange from Initiative.
BT reported a 44% jump in profits to £435m in the last quarter of the fiscal year on the back of broadband internet uptake.
