You mean this right Chesters?

This sounds like Chesters connection

 

1. Text on Web pages displays as Morse Code

2. Graphics arrive via FedEx

3. You believe a heavier string might improve your connection

4. You post a message to your favorite newsgroup and it displays a week later

5. Your credit card expires while ordering online

6. ESPN Web site exhibits "Heisman Trophy Winner" ...for 1989

7. You're still in the middle of downloading that popular new game, "PacMan"

8. Everyone you talk to on the 'net phone' sounds like Forrest Gump

9. You receive e-mails with stamps on them

10. When you click the "Send" button, a little door opens on the side of your monitor and a pigeon flies out.

strangely i notice the damn thing stalls halfway through anything to do with entering debit card details .

this site has been difficult to get to over the last few days but everything else ok.

i would go broadband but BT's lovely offer excludes upgrades or existing customers despite the offer still being there on signing in .

and just what does a 2gig a month "download" mean ? all data recieved or software downloaded ??

i am afraid to leave the bt nest (including the line rental) as then who fixes the line when it breaks? its bad now on dialup i'm getting dropped many times a night (usually just as i post) and dialing 3 or 4 times to get back on.

was AN off last night i couldnt get in ?

Hey folks don't be so mean to Chesters, he's a southerner he might get a complex...

I was on dial up until a few months ago and jeez was it cr@p, but even on Broadband I live so far from the exchange I can only get it because BT relaxed their rules about signal power or some such technobabble.

 

I had problems with AN last night too, perhaps someone can explain if there was a server glitch.

 

Chesters if you are currently NOT on broadband ie you are on dial up, you should qualify for any offer relating to broadband, (?)

The download limit, as far as my addled simpleton brain understands, is the total data downloaded, that is everytime you open a webpage the counter is running.

 

Fortunately, unless you are watching movies, ripping music or heavily into surfing you may be able to live with the limit.

Yes there was a server glitch last night, and another earlier today, which hopefully will be fixed within the next few weeks or so once we find what the problem is.

Chesters. is this of any help to you...tiscali UNLIMITED 1gb £12 99 a month plus bt line of course.

 

 

I am so far from exchange that I an only get 1m so opted for that service ( I also get free weekend phone calls)

 

Assuming you pay for BT line anyway, it's only £3 a week, you must use that on diallup ?

"Chesters if you are currently NOT on broadband ie you are on dial up, you should qualify for any offer relating to broadband, (?) "

 

looks that way but if you look at the small print the offer doesent apply to "upgrades" i am upgrading from dialup to broadband hense it must exclude existing customers and just an offer to grab new customers.

 

"This offer is for new BT Total Broadband customers only and excludes upgrades /regrades. "

 

Hi Den is that a 1gig download per month

 

strange there is still a glitch in the software ,if i copy and paste a bit of text then select an emicon it re-pastes the text + the emicon
