    They are without doubt one of the worst.

    End of August I started having problems with my Broadband. It was either running slow or non-existent. I was also having trouble with the land-line.

    3 Times I called the "Help" desk in Mumbai or where-ever it is. Now I am slightly deaf, which makes it even more difficult to understand the accent, but each time I called, I was assured that person was taking personal charge of my complaint. Each time I called back, I had to go through the whole rigmarole of had I done this, or that. I had an engineer out, who looked at the line, said he would return, and I never saw him again! (The line did improve for a few days, then went back to the original fault).

    2 weeks after the initial call, on the 3rd time of calling, I actually got some action, as they sent out a Broadband engineer who solved the problem, and (touch wood) the line is better than ever.

    The fact is, most people would prefer talking to someone who knows what they are talking about, not someone obviously reading from a script. I have some knowledge of IT and found it very irritating to be asked to change the filter, and re-boot the router on 3 seperate occasions. Especially since I had tried these things before calling.

    the saga still continues today, i've told them if they can't provide me the channel they can pay for me and my friends to go down and watch it. (i know this will not happen but still fun telling them)

    So todays call was 22mins of can i turn the systems off and on and take the card out and put back in, then she came back to me and told me that she was on the phone to someone else giving her advice, so why can't i bloody speak to the person who she's speaking to and cut the middle person out,

    I asked if i should put the vision box in the microwave to warm it up.

    Moved house in April, let them know in March like they ask you to so that all is up and running when you move in, needed two lines, one for broadband and domestic use, one for alarm and business use. Finally got first line fitted in July, broadband became active at the end of August, still waiting for line 2, got a text tuesday saying it was being fitted on September 13th. Factored in the idiot preset and that it should have read 13 October so I'm currently waiting for 1 o'clock so that I can phone them again to complain that yet again nothing has happened. Formal complaint has gone in and has been registered - some good that does!
