We Love BT SO MUCH

Yes, so the activation date for my ADSL, the ADSL I ordered on 06/07, didn't end up being within 48 hours as I was promised. No, it was a week, scheduled for Monday 08/08. It is now 22:40 on Tuesday 09/08, and, no, you guessed it, still no ADSL. Woo.

Seriously, what are BT playing at? I've been waiting for my ADSL line for over a month, and it's all their fault. They are so completely incompetent, the only way they haven't gone under is just because they are our only option. And it's not just that I've been without ADSL for a month. The other thing is that I'm only here for 12 months - seeing as they haven't sorted me out yet, I'm facing an 11 month contract and a penalty from my ISP for quitting early. I am not happy - BT are definitely going to be on the recieving end of a strongly worded letter! Yeah! That'll learn em good!

The good news is that I have a shiny new server sitting here ready and waiting for me to download linux onto it; but that has to wait, I dont really fancy spending 3 days getting the ISO over dialup. Ooh, and I finally seem to have a WAP that works, which is nice.

Leela is off for a couple of days tomorrow - she has some training somewhere, so I will be all alone. And with no internet either! Burn. I'm limited now to doing work that doesn't require an internet connection, which is a bit of a pain for someone who develops websites for a living and who doesn't have a working local server. Hohum. Well, I hope that all is well with everyone else, and good luck to those of you who also have BT problems - I guess at least I have dialup!
