Did they say they would give you your MAC code?
From what you're sayin, it sounds like they must have.
There's an OFCOM ruling that they have to give it you within so many
days.

We already know...

about leaving as I had been with NTL for about 8 years but they wouldn't
tell me when the service was going to get back up to speed. After averaging
less than 300kbps late last night on a 7000kbps profile I am rather glad I
did give notice. The best I have had for the last few weeks has been just
over 3000kbps and it is rapidly getting worse. Good job I don't bother with
video or music downloads.

Surprised to see an old faithful like Demon towards the bottom of the list,
how times change.

Also, surprising to see Eclipse 4th from the end - surely they should be
last?

I'm on Demon. My speeds aren't great, indeed I have to do devious things
to my router to sync at 2016Kbps, which will get me a 1.75Mbit BRAS
profile. No way is that Demon's fault though.

Last time I needed their support service, well over a year ago, I had no
complaints with it, everything got sorted.

I know I can get a cheaper deal, but can I get a better one for what I
want? I've looked, but I think I'm best staying where I am.

I phoned VM on Monday morning (17th) and received my MAC yesterday
afternoon.

Hey, why don't you do like the rest of us ?
Turn your life upside down and get up at 5am in the morning and then
you'll see that VM broadband is superfast !
I always get up to 6mbps in the mornings..this plummets back to about
300kbps in the evenings..have to stay up ...(yawn)...until after 12am
in the evenings ......and then it ....(yawn)...speed's up
agai.....Zzzzzzzzz.....

Jokingly aside I asked for my MAC and got it the next day, I've been
with them over eight years.

Not used it though... ;-(

Brainwashed ? :-)

BTW Graham, Here's a good one..my mum has been having a lot of gief
with BT recently regards her phone and they accidently ceased her line
instead of cancelling the previous owners number ( she took her number
with her when she moved in ) telephone gone, broadband the lot.

After inflicting a great deal of stress and pain upon myself trying to
get BT's Indian call centre to get her line reconnected...and getting
absolutely nowhere...at someone's suggestion I e-mailed the CEO of
BT !

Do you know what ? astonishing though it may seem it yielded instant
results..

I'm taking great pleasure in informing everyone who keeps trying to
call/e-mail me from India that they are too late as I have got someone
in the Chariman and Chief Executive's Office in London dealing with it
for me.
She's been excellent.

Jim.
