Are you considering AAISP?

Their usage tariffs dont suit me, but it might be worth it so they fix the faults and then migrate elsewhere....

I read the rules of this forum before I joined and it mentions something about constructive posts, it doesn't appear to be moderated in that respect so I will find another forum which does appreciate letting people know what a nightmare situations like this can be.....

A good option.
It would be a shame if you moved on from here. Some of us are genuinely interested in the outcome.

Once I find a forum that actually moderates and enforces its own rules and allows people to try and show what dealing with certain companies is like without letting some people just use the thread as a form of their own entertainment with little or nothing to add to the subject, I will send you a link so you can follow the outcome.

Don't let the door hit you on the bum on your way out. While you are searching for an new ISP you might as well see if you can get a sense of humour transplant while you're at it.

And migrating out after a company has tried to help you seems to be your M.O. So I have even less sympathy for you than I already did.

You took the opportunity to join this forum and made your point. The vast majority of posts were members expressing their views on the situation. The fact that some were not that sympathetic to you is the risk you take on an open BBS.

You are entitled to your opinion.............but so are they.

Thats fine I totally accept what you say, but my point is one particular poster is clearly just out to cause trouble and stir things up and do their best to attack me, that does not fall in the remit of what you say......can't you see that?

What you can't see is that your behaviour , in my opinion, was that of a spoiled brat who, on not getting the service you believed you should get from an at best £20 a month internet service, decided to try and slander the company for revenge.

I read the entire topic on the plusnet community board and I have to say that not even my three year old would throw such tantrums that you have done on that forum and this.

The fact that you can't accept that other people may have a different point of view to yours just shows how immature you are hopefully one day you will learn that the world does not revolve around you. Your health might improve once you realise that and stop raising your blood pressure because things don't always go your way.

How about this one?

Like you, I've read thro' all 19 pages of the thread on the Plusnet Community board and one does feel that the member of the Plusnet Support team deserves a medal for services given.

When I had a broadband problem, in mid 2009, I was only too pleased for an Openreach engineer to call 3 times to our house despite being personally convinced that it was (later proven) a line card fault. The chap was most friendly and I gained an NTE5a for free.

Whilst it might be frustrating it's only a broadband connection and it's not worth bursting a blood vessel over it.

No updates have appeared, and I have only just found this thread. I hope that by now your problem is solved one way or another. (I have not read your post on the plusnet forums).

I would say in defence of this forum say that over the last few years I have always received lots of useful and prompt advice here and find it a very interesting resource. The ISP forums are generally very good.
