It's Monday. I am spending my day on the phone to BT. Shouldn't the help-line be able to help? I pressed all the numbers, I listened to cr*ppy hold music, I managed to make myself understood (I think) by the poor sod on the line....................and now I am waiting again.
If I break down in tears will someone throw me a blanket and soem cake?

You have my sympathies Rach. I had the same problem with Virgin recently when they upgraded my broadband but forgot to tell me I needed a cable modem.

Sorry about that. I get Xs for most images as they're all from restricted (by RBS) sites. Pretty soon this is going to apply to the whole flamin' Interweb.

I need a darkened room and some soothing incense to calm my ragged nerves. 4.5 hours on the phone to BT and it sucks!

I've got City and Guilds Telecomms Technician Full-Tech Certificate and I'm pretty sure phones aren't supposed to do that. 
It's not a Dyson phone is it?

Can anyone tell me why itīs cheaper for me to phone home to England on my Spanish Orange pay-as-you-go than it is to call within Norwich on Mrs Dingoīs Vodafone pay-as-you-go? 
Home at the end of the week - I just canīt stand the sun
By the way this cyber cafe is ONE EURO for an hour. The only bad news is that unleaded has suddenly shot up to one euro per litre, so now mon amigos know how weīve been feeling for the past God knows how long  |

It's not that I can't find worth in anything, it's just that I can't find worth in enough.
