Or.... Bunch of Tossers, to give them the full title.

If you are moving house and are considering their service, JUST DON'T BOTHER!!!!

Sky, Virgin or taking a blunt knife to your genitles is preferable to the service I am recieving from BT.

Morning everyone!!

Excellent, but I believe this is what the 'What's annoying you today?' thread is for.

Yes, yes... I thought this was all common knowledge?

Let's just hope you don't have to have a BT engineer round... you'll be airing your house for weeks after.

A BT engineer? Turning up? Hahaha.

Funny.

Ha they do turn up eventually... they just stink. I think it's a job requirement for a telephone engineer to wash a maximum of one day per decade.

And wear 10 year old blue t-shirts that are two sizes too small for them.

My friend Mike, who runs the pub quiz I go to, had an absolute nightmare with BT. They cut him off even tho his bills were paid and couldn't/wouldn't reconnect him, which made compiling the quiz with no internet a bit of an ordeal. He was so annoyed that one evening during the quiz he suddenly announced: "Did you hear that they've caught someone for the abduction of Madeline McCann? It was BT. All of 'em." :D

When I was in my flat I could get cable and had that for both phone and internet. It was NTL at the time, but was Virgin by the time I left. Sadly my house doesn't get cable, so I had to get a BT landline and I'm with BE Unlimited for internet now.

Took a while to get BE though, they wanted a phone number. Which had to wait until BT connected me.

Which they did.

But didn't tell me.

It was a whole week before I finally managed to get them to confirm that it was connected and what the phone number was. In hindsight I should just have tried it. I reality they should have * told me they'd connected it!

Since then I've had no problems with them though.

I'm with Be too, I like them a lot. They were very quick to get set up too.

The Be part of things was very smooth, and they're pretty fast considering I'm miles from the exchange.

Oddly, when I got my iPhone from O2 they tried to offer me broadband through them too but when I gave them my postcode they said they wouldn't offer me it.

Be and O2 are the same thing. And apparently were when I got my iPhone too. I really should check with them to see if I can save a bit of money because I've got both.

Look BT might be crap, they might be great. I really don't care. All I care about is what is going to happen next with Adam and Jane? He's been being cut off in the middle of a conversation with her about his moving for a new job for AAAAAAAAAGES now, and apart from a few fillers with him taking the piss out of his mate and one - count it, ONE - glimpse of a call to him from a frosty looking Jane, there's been nothing. I need to know what's going on for gods sake.

Ah yes that supposed 'sitcom' - 'My Family'. He was the only good thing about it, he played the layabout teenager brilliantly.

He was good as Colin in Love Actually too. And I'm dying to know what happens next. There hasn't been a decent advert couple since the Gold Blend adverts!

Yeah, I've already mentioned my penis size today.

No, the BT advert series is definitely not a sitcom with him playing a teenage layabout.
