I'm so pissed!!
More than a week ago my internet service provider made a huge data base mistake and they decreased my band width by half... I've been phoning them and visiting their office almost every day to get this solved, but at least I had a connection until now... Yesterday after they tried something new to restore my normal bandwidth they actually screw things so bad that now I have no connection at all! Man, I'm so pissed... right now I'm posting from a friends computer... I can't practice my GMC lessons, read the forums etc... This is so annoying. I will have to call them again this afternoon and see if they can do something, worst thing is each call I make is pretty expensive. 8 days since they screwed my connection, this is beginning to feel like a nightmare This post has been edited by Fran: Jun 12 2008, 10:37 AM -------------------- Guitars:

I'm still screwed....
Phoned them again yesterday, and they say they are working on it, but still no solution... I even told them that it was my last call, and I would leave if they don't solve it asap... At least I'm spending this weekend at my girlfriends' so I will have connection there! -------------------- Guitars:

It's not Telefonica by any chance Fran?
I'd switch - assuming that there aren't any penalties/lock in clauses. Lots of ISPs around so lots of competition - you'd think your ISP would be fighting to keep you rather then driving you to leave .

All ISPs are the same, a bunch of liers! All goes well until you have a problem! Oh well... right now I'm at my girlfriends', but if they don't solve it by monday I will switch, been with them a while so no penalties I hope. Keeping fingers crossed... it's a pain to switch anyway. -------------------- Guitars:

Just wanted to make a small update to this little episode I'm going through: after two weeks they STILL haven't fixed my connection...
Summer is aproaching and I will move to my girlfriends' for two months (her connection does work!), so I will more than probably leave my ISP, and hopefully they can solve this when I re-connect in two months time, though I think I might as well choose a different ISP next time around... They have given me 6 months with 50% off already, but the fact that they still haven't even sent a tech guy with a new cable modem to my house shows how dumb these people are... I have already told them my MAC number 5 times to 5 different people because they had it wrong again and again! At least the connection works, at just 20 KBps, when it's supposed to be 6Mb... go figure!, at least I can surf the boards and stuff, but it takes ages for gmc videos & youtube stuff to load. Oh well. Enough ranting!, at least I can post :/ -------------------- Guitars:
