My ISP kindly have upgraded my speed to 4MB, however they forgot to tell me that BT would be spending time playing on the line & disconnecting me every now & then. The reason to test if my line can take more than 4MB.

Well when on BT site yesterday i put in my post code & number and found out the max speed i can get is 4MB anyway, so why do they need to test the fecking thing if it will not go above 4MB.

And to top it off i'm connected to a local call centre in down town Idia who tell me that this will happen for a few more days. And this is the 2nd time i have had to type this out! I'm going to SCREAM, i'm going to throw my teddy out of the pram & i'm going to open the emergency bottes of beer and get pi55ed.

Rant over

give it a week and you should be up and running

 
I'm out of bed and dressed, what more do you want?

I always take life with a grain of salt, ... a slice of lemon, ...and a shot of tequila

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out

One more step to enlightenment ... but which way ?

I got 4, waiting for 6-8 ... only been 2 months.


My brother "went back to BT" a few days ago and has 8 ...




 
I'm not grouchy by nature, it takes constant effort.

Every day I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive.
