There's a talktalk/BT issue with connecting, there's never any managers or supervisors on the floor, or they're in a meeting etc etc etc. All this time spent on the phone at 10p per minute takes the mickey. Anyone know of any other routes to take to get this resolved?

TIA.
Cancel the talktalk, they a joke of a service, your brother is under the illusion he is getting broadband for free when he has probably signed up for a call plan to qualify for it and secondly he may well end up on their bt ipstream service which has a fee anyway or could be waiting till mid 2007. Best just to spend some money and get a proper isp their are a few budget ones for under £15 a month if money is tight.

If he has sky, they might be an option for free broadband.
