Angry Email service????

Over the past couple of weeks the email service as provided by ntl has been down more than up in my area. When I enquired as to any form of compensation or rebate on my 1Mb monthy fee I was told that because the email service is provided FREE by ntl there was no chance of any form of rebate etc. The impression I got was that as the email service is free why should ntl bust a gut to get it back up and running. Hence I have now set up an alternative email account NOT using ntl's servers and have notified all friends and colleagues alike. If only BT broadband were in my area<vbs>

Re: Email service????

It has been down for most people all day today. I think it may have to do with the new email system they are putting in place.

Re: Email service????

I'd dish you out a Gmail account [as your definately in need if your using NTL's ] but Google have really slowed down the supply of Gmail invites

Anyway, in short, find an alternative. You could setup a dial up 0845 account and just dial into it once a while to get access to a POP3 email service account, without having to pay for it.

Just make sure you dial in once a month or something, to keep it active. And give it a quick google to make sure they dont suffer the same fate as NTL do regularly
