BT you are a joke

Having done some checking for BT infinity coming to carlisle in june,now they are saying only very small parts of the city centre are going to be able to get fibre,BT pathetic excuse is its not viable to do other parts of the city,what good is the city centre not many people live there,they are excluding all the residents who live out of the town centre.i live 10mins walk from the exchange and you can't even offer me more than 5mb and 0.7mb upload,so now i find it not viable to keep paying each month for a shoddy service.i awaite my call back off BT to explain why they are falling behind everyone else.

OFCOM separated them a while ago, B.T Wholesale, B.T Retail and Openreach are different companies, they run independently as a business/company would.
Anyways, i'm in a well populated area in London, being waiting since September 2010, that's when my exchange got enabled, frustrated to say the least but accepted it, i'll just have to wait.

  • Read this if you are thinking of ordering infinity...

    Ordered infinity on 1st of June, had my conformation email after ordering stating that i would have a engineer come and do some work. asking me to be at home 8 Am till 1 PM (even though i ticked the box that said you don't have to be there for this visit as it will be external work). 13th came and no visit. OK i thought no problem as its external work no drama (lost a days pay though).
    2 days later bt emailed me saying" sorry we missed you, your new appointment for the engineer will be the 18th also asking me to be at home for this visit 8AM till 1PM, Bt never turned up for this one aswell, No phone call email or text message to say why they have not turned up.( another days pay lost) so i rang bt 0800 800 150... 45 minutes later and 2 bt employees from India that could not help, they put me through to bt infinity division in England. Sharon apologised for the 2 visits that was missed but could not understand why. Sharon put me on hold so she could ring the engineers, 15 minutes later i was told that they would not be coming out today (18th) and she would put a message in there departments diary for some one to ring me on the 19th to explained why and put me on the high priority list.
    7.30 pm on the 19th No phone call!!!!! so i rang again 0800 800 150. 20 minutes later and 1 lady from India i got through to the infinity diversion again and asked why no ones have rang me like i was told and promised (Sharon words not mine). Vicky from bt infinity could not believe what had happened to me and was shocked, my activation date is on the 25th and Vicky told me that i should not have had the 2 visits from the engineers until the activation date was completed ( ok £200 notes down the drain for taking 2 days off for no reason) she promised me that some one would ring me tomorrow 21st i told her i have already been feed that line yesterday but she promised they would.
    guess what happened...... no phone call....... so after me ringing bt at 7.30pm tonight and finding that the department was closed via a pre recorded message (8pm is the time they close i checked) i tried one more time and got though to a lady that did not have a clue even after reading the notes on the system. she tried to ring the engineers department but got no answer. WHAT A F... JOKE... 
    I have never had such bad and disorganised customer sevice in my life ( i work in Customer Service myself)
    I will be ringing bt back tomorrow in the afternoon to find out if there is anyone that can really help me find out what is happening to my order.
    ps. to top it all off my home hub and welcome pack was due today 21st. that did not arrive and i have tracked it. its in isle of man rang the post office and they said it had been sent there by mistake (i live in Chester) now i am worried that if everything goes ahead on the 25th i will not have the home hub in time to start using infinity lol
    if you are thinking of ordering infinity good luck you are going to need it after my experience

    I feel your pain Bro, had a lot of hassle when I first got infinity, and lately had a bit of hassle before and during the upgrade. There is a serious communication error between various departments at BT and this is something they need to sort out. In my opinion it has lost them a great deal of custom and a great deal of money. As I am from N. Ireland I ended up having to get in touch with my local office in Belfast to sort the problem out and they did it flawlessly without any messing about.
    1. Had engineer out regarding slow speed and I suspected it was a Retail server problem, engineer told me full speed was coming into the premises and reported this back to BT and Openreach.
    2. BT said there was no problem with the server, sent another engineer, same thing...etc etc...Reported back to Openreach.
    3. Openreach said there WAS a problem and that they have now fixed it, guess what...not fixed.
    4. Another engineer call out, same thing.
    5. This went on and on for 3 weeks
    Ended up doing this:
    1. a. Contacted local crew in Belfast.
    2. a. got a call back the next morning and was told they will not be sending anymore engineers.
    3. a. Line fixed within 2 hours of the call, and yes, you guessed it. Server problem all along.
    BT needs to stop automatically blaming a lot of the faults on the end user and instead listen to the customer or they would have had this job fixed that same day. Instead they wasted money sending loads of engineers which could have been available for other installations etc.

    I am fumed!  I am starting to get the feeling that the 3 Large that I spent on this computer was a fraud.  I get these kind of error messages when trying to submit an error message, trying to submit an error message.
    In 1976 I was working on an IBM OS/360.  As a college student, I submitted the new box of cards from the city hospital every night.  It would run for 3-4 hours.  At the end I would either get a report, or it would throw an error.  If it was an error it was always the same:  "A Number of Errors Have Occurred."
    I had to check my calendar.  I can't believe that this is 2015 and 39 years later the error messages are still the same.  I spent my hard earned money for an operating system deployed in the 1980 for the purpose of testing telephony digital switches, so that the company could send programming specs to Indians, who have no idea of the culture that is using these applications that I pay for?
    What am I missing?  This has got to be some one's idea of joke, but I don't think it is funny.

  • BT YOU ARE PATHETIC!!!

    About 3 months ago BT did "upgrades" to the lines in our local area. Ever since then we have had connection issues when our telephone rings. The issues are random in nature, sometimes the connection doesn't drop, mostly it drops when the answering machine kicks in, and sometimes it drops as soon as the phone starts ringing.
    Over this period we have had at least 5 visits from technicians and every single time the technician runs the same tests in our house, finds there is a fault but can't locate it meaning the fault is in the lines outside somewhere, and then leaves us with the problem meaning we have to get in touch with call centres in India so that they can recommend sending another technician round to repeat the process.
    Trying to get this joke of a company to fix our problem is like trying to run through a brick wall! It is a ludicrous situation and I have lost all confidence in "British" Telecoms. There is a clear problem with the lines and you are aware of this problem, yet you have done nothing progressive to fix the issue. How can your company be so incompetent? 
    The worst thing is that I rely on a stable internet connection for my job. I am a professional poker player and haven't been able to play optimally since the problems began. It has now reached a point where I don't work altogether for fear of losing my connection.
    We've looked into changing providers as it is clear BT and their ape-like workforce aren't capable of solving this problem. Unfortunately almost all other providers rent the lines off BT so for anyone else suffering the same issues as us, when you go onto google and see people having these same issues, it is because they rent BT's lines. The only other company that uses their own lines, as far as we know, is Virgin. But we don't live in a Virgin area so they are not an option.
    Using a wireless internet method is not an option either as I require a highly stable wired connection for my line of work. I can't work because of these issues and it has got to the point now where I can feel myself slipping into a depression as a combined result of this predicament.
    BT, I hope you crumble and burn you inept **bleep**!

    Perfect, thanks.
    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Message:You are already logged on to the system in the following sessions

    Hi Experts,
    We are implementing SAP SRM7.0 with Portal integration.
    After logging in when we click on the shop link , it is taking us to the new screen and getting message saying "You are already logged on to the system in the following sessions"
    and also providing the details of the user.
    This is happening for all the users created in portal.
    can someone help me to resolve the issue.it would be really appreaciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Prashanth P.

    Hi Prashanth,
    You can enable multiple login in two ways.
    goto SICF and open service.
    1.Navigate to default_host->sap->bc->bsp->sap->srm(double click on srm service)
    2.Open Error Pages tab and clcik on Configuration button.
    3.Check whether check for multiple logon is enabled.
    or
    goto RZ10
    To allow the user to have multiple login in SAP R/3, one have to set the Profile Parameters u201CLogin/disable_multi_gui_loginu201D OR u201CLogin/multi_login_usersu201D.
    1. Login/disable_multi_gui_login
    Controls whether multiple logins are enabled or disabled. 0 = enable 1 = disable
    2. Login/multi_login_users
    Here a list [user IDs] can be deposited that would allow users a multiple login even though the multi login is generally disabled. The multiple login information are stored in the table URSR41_MLD.
    Note: Select extented administration and clcik display. this is the place to maintain parameters.

  • Don't use Best Buy Delivery if you are thinking about it...Just lies, lies, and more lies..

    Wow, where should I even started?
    We brought a 55 in TV from the local store last Sunday, and schedule a delivery yesterday (6/6/2015).
    They called us the night before delivery date, to confirm the delivery on Saturday from 1:30- 3:30pm.
    We waited until 3pm, and finally received a call saying "they were delayed a little bit", and moved the time to 5:30-6:30pm. Ok, not good, but we can understand.
    But of course, they didn't show up on time. We decided to call them again at 6:22pm, and were told they were 45 minutes away...
    7:30pm, after a hour, we called them AGAIN, and was told they are 25 mins away. 
    We had another delivery scheduled from Lowes at 8pm. Lowes showed up on time, and installed our fridge and washer/dryer professionally. They left around 8:30pm. 
    WHERE IS OUR TV FROM BEST BUY THEN???? Don't they supposed to show up before the Lowes???
    We called them again and again, but nobody answered...well, I guess it is a Saturday, and they went home WITHOUT even bother to tell us.
    Last time we spoke, you told me you are 25 mins away. Is this a lie? or you just decide to go back to your sweet home after we talk on the phone?!
    Sunday (6/7), I called the warehouse again in the morning, but no one answers, the voicemail is full as well (So I think we are NOT the only one experienced this ridicuous issue). Then we called the 1-888 number, and explained what happened. The customer rep on the phone couldn't get hold of the local warehouse neither, and told us to call back within several hours. (They did give us a case number: {removed per forum guidelines} though) We called back before noon, and was told they are not open on Sunday, and they don't know when will be get our TV delivered, maybe Monday morning.
    Ok, here is the thing, we have to work Mon- Fri, that's why we requested to deliver on Saturday. And come on, Best Buy, it is just a TV, it is not huge appliances that take you that much time.
    I can see why there was delay, ( not saying we were happy about it though...) But you could at least called us to let us know before you went home on our scheduled delivery date!!!! And were all those "45 mins away", "25 mins away" things lies???? 
    Dear Best Buy Coustomer Relations,
    I am expecting a responce back from you in a few business days from today, 06/07/15. Your responce should be sartisfying us. If we don't hear anything back from you or your responce to us doesn't satisfy us, then we will go talk to someone higher in your organization. Thank you,

    Hello MengyaLiu, and welcome to the forum,
    I’m honestly not sure why our delivery team would have told you they were on their way to your home and then not arrive without an explanation as to why. Our delivery agents should be notifying you of all necessary changes in their delivery schedules, as we realize the inconvenience any possible delay may cause, so it’s regrettable to hear we failed you in this regard. I truly apologize for any frustration this oversight may have caused.
    While I’ve personally documented your feedback here at the corporate office to ensure something of this nature doesn’t happen in the future, I’m glad to hear our delivery team was able to make this right and successfully delivered your TV yesterday. Please feel free to let us know how it went and if you have any further questions for me. I’ll be glad to help.
    Best wishes,
    Alex|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

  • How do you surf the web while you are on the iphone?

    How do you search the web while you are having a phone conversation? do you have to put the phone on speaker?

    You dont have to, but it is hard to listen and look at the screen at the same time.  You can also use a bluetooth headset or ear phone that came with the phone.  Remember you can not do both at the ame time on Verizon.

  • You are unable to log in to the user account at this time

    I am facing this problem for some time now. Can anyone give some hints?
    By the way. Excuse me for my English. I am not a native speaker.
    I have a MacMini with Snow Leopard Server (10.6.7 since yesterday) wired to two iMacs (10.6.7), two PC's running Windows and a Time Capsule/Airport (7.5.2) which is wirelessly connected to a MacBook Air (10.6.7), iPad and iPhone.
    The PC's use file sharing (SMB) which works fine.
    The Server has some network accounts. Home dir is on the server.
    At one iMac, I can log in to a network account. E-mail, iCal on Server, sync with iPad and iPhone. Works fine.
    At the second iMac, I can NOT log in to any network account. Window shakes, saying "You are unable to log in to the user account at this time" and "Logging in to the account failed because an error occurred". In Terminal window, I can reach /Network/Servers/do.main.name/Users. Using the Finder, I can access all my files. If I shut down the first iMac, I can log in.
    At my MacBook, I can not log in to my network account. In Terminal window, I can Not reach /Network/Servers/do.main.name/Users. I get "Users: Host is down". But using Finder, I have access to all my files. Shutting down both iMacs doesn't help. Airport settings see to be correct.
    Where do I have to look. On the Server side? Using Server Admin and Workgroup Manager (from any client) I can not see anything strange. In WGM, multiple login for the network accounts is enabled. I even have Guest Access enabled for AFP (both in the sharepoint and in AFP settings).
    Anyone?

  • I recently had to swap out my iphone 4s and I am having problems restoring photos and videos from icloud.  I get a message on my phone that says " the URL you are requesting is not found on this server".  Pics and videos have been deleted too.

    I recently had to swap out my iphone 4s and I am having problems restoring photos and videos from icloud.  When I restored my phone from icloud, half of my pics and videos have been deleted, the pics that were restored on my phone are very blurry, and the videos won't play.  I get a message on my phone that says " the URL you are requesting is not found on this server".  I have erased and reset my phone twice, but every time I do it, more pics and videos are deleted.  I have backed up to icloud and iphoto, however, some of the pics are no longer on iphoto either.  Is there someway to get the videos to play on my phone again?  Make the photos not as blurry as they are now and to restore the pics and videos that have been lost?  I really would love to have them back, this phone is supposed to be the best and right now it doesn't seem to be.  Please help if you can.

    I too have noticed that once i restored from iCloud. Pictures blurry and videos wont play!
    Need help too!!

  • Issue with opening a site in SharePoint Designer 2010 -The version of SharePoint foundation running on the server is more recent than the version of SPD you are using, you need a more recent version of SPD.

    I have a SharePoint site which I am trying to open in SPD 2010, I am getting the following error(some of my team members are able to open)
    The version of SharePoint foundation running on the server is more recent than the version  of SPD you are using, you need a more recent version of SPD.
    These are the ways I tried
    1) Earlier I have MS office 32 bit and SPD 32 bit, I uninstalled them and installed both 64 bit versions
    2) I uninstalled restarted my machine and installed it again still no use.
    3) I installed SPD 2010 Service Pack 2 of 64 bit
    4) I uninstalled the SPD 2010 and opened the site—site actions—edit page in SPD , then it asked me to install SPD 2010, then I installed and tried to open the same site, again same error.
    How to solve this issue?
    I checked permissions also at that site level – I have full control like others. I don’t have access to Central Admin so where else I can check the permission settings?

    Please update us SharePoint version
