This post is perfect timing for me, as I was literally looking at what BT
had to offer 30 min ago.

 

Two weeks ago I caved in to my ISP, Tiscali, and signed up to them taking
over my phone as well as my Broadband, all for £19.99 a month. BT dropped
the line last Tuesday as requested by Tiscali but Tiscali have not picked it
up over a week later, so I'm still without a phone and having to rely on my
mobile. I've tried to call Tiscali around 8 times, got through 3 times with
an avarege wait of 25 minutes, been promised call backs that dont happen etc
etc. These calls along with my everday calls have cost me over £25 in in
week on my mobile. Called support again this morning and they are off line
until 11pm tonight and not back to "full" service until Saturday. They
suggested I try emailing instead, which I did...3 times over the last week
with no reply.

 

Rant over, sorry.

 

Anybody recommend an ISP whith phoe package.

 

Brian.

I switched over to BT 8Mb coz they offered free TV (shit) free web phone
(shit) & a decent router (shit) 

My speed dropped from my old 2Mb line!


 

An engineer came out & tested everything & the internal cables from the main
line to my comp has degenerated.

On the direct line in I get 7.2mbs, in my office it can be as low as 2mbs!

am getting a new line put in.

all big laughs.


 

what a great story.

Of course, the chance that the average 33kbps line actually averaged 33 was
rare . . 

How many people here are on  "Up to 10meg"?

How many actually get 10meg (or anywhere near)?
