I love BT too. I'm just trying to get a frigging phone line activated: they had me wait two wooks for an appointment, then cancelled it and sent me a text message saying they'd done the job remotely... only they hadn't and now I have to wait another week and a half for a new appointment! Grr.

Now that really is TMI!

You see... it's all retribution for you not giving me your referral!

I was seriously thinking about switching from pipex to somewhere else for my new house. Now I know that my new house should preferably be in Sweden, as they don't have BT there.

Maybe there was a bit of Pringle crisp under the flush button.

I think you're getting quite good at pressing it by yourself.

Would you like to push it for me?

I think your flush button is sticking ;p

Well, if Radiac is short of seats there is always the throne room... problem is, you can't move the "seat" into the living room, you would have to bring the computer into the bathroom.

Unlike the bathroom decoration?

..... nods, and very necessary too.

Prods CF... who just had MaxDSL enabled and is on a 2Mb connection

You have your priorities right I see... "There's no furniture in the flat, but there is 2mbit internet."....

Get used to it...

It's the Plusnet Way

Nah, you can't use it too much - they throttle usenet using a special system called "feck up the news server pool". They also use a technique where they blame the customers for every fault, just in case.

That's lame as f***. BT activate 100,000's of ADSL lines every day. No problem to push you up the list.

Also it really sucks that the right people didn't have access to the right information. Sounds like the sort of thing some of my co-workers try to sort out!.

Good luck getting it sorted.

You'll regret being with Force9^H^H^H^H^H^Hplusnet, I'm sure.
Just wait till they threaten to cut you off for using their "unlimited service" too much. Again. ;)
