He tried a spare phone on the line, still the same problem, and so he asked to try his phone on my line and his phone is working. So he tried ringing NTL today at about 2:45pm (150 from my phone), at about 3:30pm when he got someone on the phone and explained the problem he was transfered and after 10mins the phoneline just gave a continuous tone and he had to hang up. He then left, a bit pee'd off!
So I tried by rininging 151 and reporting the fault, I got through in under 5 mins  explained the problem and was told 22nd November was the earliest an engineer could call?
Is that acceptable? Should he have to be without his phone for at least 2 weeks? Should he ring NTL back and complain? |
That is absolutely awful. Get them to phone right back and say you want someone out TODAY!
