Me, still battling my ISP... It has been a week and despite requesting escalation days ago I still find myself calling these idiots. It feels like I have put a gun to my head >:( >:(

Success, hopefully. I am still at 1MB/s until the exchange staff action...

You guessed, my ISP never calls back even after requesting escalation after days of terrible service from staff answering their support line.

I finally posted on a tech-forum here and an ISP representative offered assistance if needed. I grabbed it.
Near 2 hours on the phone to him and I see progress...
Short answer and text cut from his email to me ....

.... would seem that your original order for ADSL2+ (December 2012) was not possible to fulfill due to a lack of ports at your local exchange. Our system has then processed an order for an Off-Net service with ADSL2+ speeds and our billing system applied a regular ADSL1 billing


I am now to pay $10 a month less for the better product. I am still trying to get my head around this….. Seems a human did 'the right thing' 4 years ago and software has now discovered and corrected :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

So I'm waiting on a house to be finished quite close to the centre of Newport and I hear the broadband is there is shit...this displeases me greatly, so I am on the case with MPs and all sorts to get it sorted out. I'll be fucked if I'm having substandard interweb in my new place.

The planning person denied Virgin the access to cable everything....twats.

BT have enabled the exchange but have not done the local cabinet. They are saying it's on the Super Fast Cymru roll out plan, but it's actually been taken off. But the won't acknowledge that fact so nothing is getting done.

Next up is...Watchdog :D
