Paul666 suggested complete winxp reinstall after first formatting the hard drive.


So I thought...well tech must know their stuff it must be summat on my pc.

10 mins ago winxp finished reinstalling:

1st 128K took 2187 ms = 59932 Bytes/sec = approx 499 kbits/sec
2nd 128K took 2047 ms = 64031 Bytes/sec = approx 533 kbits/sec
3rd 128K took 4016 ms = 32637 Bytes/sec = approx 272 kbits/sec
4th 128K took 3484 ms = 37621 Bytes/sec = approx 313 kbits/sec


48hours ago tech said they would have someone out...maybe if any of you guys work near them you could give them a nudge...maybe?

or am I being paranoid here...

btw: monkeybreath..any idea when they are rebalancing again? methinks tuesday early hours same as this week...honestly mate I don't think that's the only problem...

Flip-you need to escalate this as far as you can in ntl, as clearly they won't listen otherwise.

Do you want me to give you a name/number for someone?

[paulyoung666]

well at least now you have a bit more ammo to lob at them

sorry it was a waste of time though

Paul gave me one but I have no response as yet - hehe only 48 hours...:pp


Man this has totally brought me down...as for son well as I'm dad I'm the big bad guy in the house...even my wife has started asking her friends about pings....jeez...why is all this so dammned stressful...

I'm poretty sure tech must have me on a bad list or summat...someone tell em i won't shout this time.....pleeeeaaassseeeee


PS: Just rang tech and spoke to TONY - can I say for the first time I've spoken to someone who is a gentleman and honest...his explanation and his apparent anger at fault team made the grim realisation that NTL HAVE NO PLAN TO COMBAT MY AREAS PROBLEM... slightly easier to swallow.

For the record this is a scandal...an absolute disgraceful scandal..


Ofcom, watchdog any consumer mag listening....in a former life I was a journalist...man i feel a few stories coming on.
