What ever happened to fault tolerance and uptimes, redundant servers.... :|

Re: Bloody email... Again
 

NTL took it the wrong way and made their email servers redundant today! They're off down the job centre tomorrow to sign on! :)

Actually I haven't had any email all weekend, since the 'upgrade' started.

On the upside, I'm now looking as ADSL suppliers* so this shouldn't be a problem much longer.

I don't care what they might have claimed to have done to improve the email I just want a service that's actually up and runnning 99% of the time.

To be fair, I've never had that many problems with browsing but thats not going to make up for the pi** poor email.

* I currently work for BT and this will mean that I can defn work from home as well, it may have been possible with NTL as was but I guess I'll never need to find out.

Its all been said before....

You know what to do if your not ahppy, because I dont think its ever going to improve, although they claim it will.

How hard can a simple thing, that everyone else seems to get right, be?

Re: Bloody email... Again
 

So where were you when the overhaul of the email system was announced?

Re: Bloody email... Again
 

Normally I'm the first to **** NTL off, but I think in this case they put a notice up, and have been working on the email servers at the same time of week for a while. It's only overnight one day a week, so if it results in a much better service, then it's worth it.

If little changes.......well, then that's another matter!

Re: Bloody email... Again
 

quick call ntl - tell them to cancell all their mail server work cos you want your email now!

Re: Bloody email... Again
 

Is anyone else still not able to connect to the email servers?

I'm in the ST16 area.

NTL Email - asking for username & password
 

Ive checked the server status page & there isnt anything today for email problems.

When trying to collect my email via outlook, just for my ntl account its asking me to confirm my username & password.

Its been fine until day, retrieved it all fine last night.

Is there a problem at the moment?

Cheers

Re: NTL Email - asking for username & password
 

There is maintenance going on....

If you PM me your username & password I can tell you if its correct on our systems, and then you know if you need to phone in or not :)

Others here will vouch I work for NTL if your worried about security....

Re: Merged-Bloody email... Again
