Broadband & TV services screech to a halt about half a dozen times a day for varying lengths of time. I've given up relying on a connection for anything.
Whilst I was looking forward to the speed upgrade, I secretly dreaded it - I just knew this was gonna happen.
Not gonna bother ringing CS - last time some snotty ar$e told me unless I'd had an outage of over 3 days, it wasn't considered urgent.
If I didn't absolutely dread the nightmare of switching TV/Phone & Internet providers, I'd be gone like a shot. Hopefully one day soon I'll get the spare time to switch elsewhere. Not fussed about prices - just want a package that works.

Yep it sounds like we're in the same boat.
The cable tv service is the worst of the bunch. It's ruined 2 things for me this week alone, and when it does actually work it's so painfully slow to use that it's ridiculous. Simply checking the tv guide for a couple of hours later takes an age. It's like working with stone age equipment.
