Could someone confirm whether I'm correct?

Anyway, I've decided to drop down to 1Mb until all the fuss dies down but after another call to CS I've been told I can't even do that until 4th April! Are they picking on me?
Hi! New to the forum today tho' lurking for a while.

I too live in SE London and rang CS this am (the latest of several calls over the last 2 weeks) to try and get a date to replace PACE STB with a SAMSUNG and was given the SAMSUNG doesn't work in your area ring Sales to get an SACM story this time.

I can't believe cabling is an issue as I believe upgrades were done in this area just over a year ago so that we could be offered BB. Is there anybody on the forum who lives in SE London and has BB working via a SAMSUNG STB?

I would prefer a replacement STB just to be rid of the pesky PACE. I'm not asking for it to be installed yesterday or today, all I want is a date for when the job will be done so no need for CS to make up stories if the real issue is a shortage of SAMSUNGS.
