BT fire: update
The chaos caused by Monday's underground cable fire in Manchester appears to be easing, according to the latest update from BT.
As of 7.00am this morning, seven of the 41 cables destroyed by the fire have been repaired and a couple more are nearing completion. Others are expected to be repaired throughout the day. So far around 20,000 phone lines have been fully restored, but it still means that around 118,000 lines are plagued by an intermittent service. A spokesman for BT said the situation "was improving", adding that that the repairs should be completed over the next 48-72 hours, if work continues at the current level. Source The Register |

Plusnets Broadband Home Lite
Plusnets Broadband Home Lite must be one of the cheapest 512k adsl services around at the moment at £14.99 (inclusive of vat) but with a 1gb restriction a month from July 1st.. i'm not so sure it will be suitable for everyone.
Plusnet's website details/gives an example what you can download/leech for your 1gb a month... but wait... if you look further down Plusnets web page it says you can bbb buy (i hate swearing) extra gb's at £2.50 upto a max of £10 extra per month... I hope other Adsl isp's dont follow in Plusnets footsteps to restrict adsl packages.. because if it becomes the norm then adsl wont be a cheaper option to cable BB |
Cheaper Adsl Activation Charges on the way?
migration prices have fallen to £11 + Vat per user, from £35 for switching customers from one BT IPStream provider to another, & down from £50 for moving a customer between a BT IPStream to BT DataStream.. 4 days on i have not seen an advertisement/announcement from the top Adsl Isp's/various Adsl Isp's even advertising these reductions asyet.. (they are not very quick to act in the interest of the customer) also something else thats interesting many ISP's charging well above the price of the BT £50 activation charge.
Link I also read that on the 10th of May 2004 they will be hopefully an announcement about reducing the £50 activation cost, but if Adsl Isp's are not very quick in announcing cheaper migration prices, how long is it going to take them, if BT do reduce the £50 activation charge to pass this saving onto customers. It will be interesting to see what happens in 5 days Time. Link to the Ofcom website (concerning ADSL Broadband Access Migration Services) |
Get Paid for recommending Tiscali?
Just register 6 customers for x10 BB & 3 for Tiscali's money saving telephone service & Tiscali will pay you £250
you receive a fixed payment (for every group of 3 customers you introduce), but you do not earn ongoing commission each month on the bill spend of customers. Smart Talk £75 (3 Customers) BB x10 £100 (3 Customers) BB x5 £30 (3 Customers) BB x3 £50 (3 Customers) Might be an good earner for this Forum :) More Info & Registration here Register today & Tiscali will provide you with your own personalised website which you can use to tell people about their services & then register them online from the comfort of your home OR register customers over the phone via Tiscali's dedicated number. no forms to complete, no paperwork to register customers. :erm: Whether Tiscali BB/Smart Talk services are any good :shrug: who knows? |
