if you phone CS and you here an indian dude then hang up and try in the day and hopefully someone who can help you will answer. Nothing against the indian dude just he don't have the tools for the job.

I believe Customer Service has not been outsourced to Indian so you're safe as long as you aren't calling Technical Support.

The other day I called up and arranged for a Samsung box to be installed, however, this can't be done until 26th April. I just called CS to see if they could reduce me to the 1Mb tier for a month while I wait for my new STB. The lady on the phone discussed this with her manager and came back and told me that although it was possible to upgrade my box to 1Mbit this was causing more problems than it was worth. Fair enough, I thought, so I proceeded to ask if I could pay £17.99 for a month until I get my Samsung box and she told me to get lost as I am currently receiving the service I signed up for. :( So if I had a SACM they would have still refuse to drop me down to the 1Mbit £17.99 tier? I don't think so... I thought this was a bit out of order but seeing as it only affects me for a month I can live with it.

Have I heck!
Still no call, four days after I was told I would be called back. *sigh*

I'm going to try and call them again tonight, what should my approach be?

1) Try and speak to same CS Rep again (I have her extention)
2) Talk to someone else

And then do I

1) Try and get the samsung I've been offered or
2) See if they'll update my Pace to the 1meg rate because the last CS Rep was daft?

If you're not bothered whether it's a Pace or Samsung for tv, why not try asking for a SACM?

Or will (anybody can answer this for me :)) they not let you change from a stb to sacm?
