Thanks Chaps!

Well the damn thing seems to have settled down now. But I think that the next time this happens I will be ringing BT to ask for a migration code. I'm off to Pipex. The system at BT has never been the same since they sold it to Yahoo.

Thanks for the advice Less, even though, of course, you didn't give give any, it was much appreciated nonetheless.

don't ring write, the result is still the same i.e. they won't help but it does work out cheaper!

I think we can safely conclude that went down like a knackered lift.

With regards to migrating - if you are with Tiscali you will have to pay £50 to move to another ISP.

I wanted to join Zen Internet (because after doing some research they topped a lot of subjects, like customer service and ease of connection, for example), but when I found out I had to pay £50, it kind of puts you off.

Which I guess is exactly what Tiscali want.

I shall send a letter to Which? and see what they have to say about it

More problems this morning. So I have re-intalled the drivers to see if that has any effect. We shall see.

Migrating to Pipex sounded like a good idea because they pick up the moving fee.

Six hours of phone calls later and not one ha'porth of change. I now have to sit and wait for an engineer to call sometime in the next forty-eight hours.

On the back of their bill Bt say they aim to offer a "first class service", My shiny pink backside!

So an hour and a half ago, I hooked up the modem to the old computer, which runs Win98. No Problems! No dropped line! What does this mean? Is the vastly expensive laptop now to be considered as having "gone up the pictures"?

ive been on bt. broadband for nearly 2 yrs now , no probs.

Doug · 30-11-2004, 22:11

Sorry your having so many problems A-B. I have to agree with Mez, I've be on Bt Broadband for a long time now and never had a problem. Hope thing improve for you.

Acrylic-bob · 30-11-2004, 23:31

This is so Damn annoying. The thing has been behaving itself since five oclock, and on the laptop too. It makes no sense at all.

WillowTheWhisp · 01-12-2004, 08:28

I can sympathise with your frustration A-b and hope you find a suitable solution one way or the other.

I've never used BT. Have been on AOL for a good few years now and I know people knock it but I've been very happy with it and find the "after sales service" to be very helpful.

Acrylic-bob · 01-12-2004, 08:39

Back on the laptop this morning without any problems. So clearly it isn't the computer that is faulty. ? ? ? ? ?
