Having to reorder twice and waiting a month to fin...

I ordered BT Broadband with BT about a month and a half ago (the first order)! I asked for a new line(not the exsisting line) i placed the online order and set everything up happy days or so i thought!!! new internet very soon. A few days later my brother had an email through saying his broadband had been ask to be terminated by BT(on the exsisting line) I specifically said i wanted a new line installed.
So anyway i phoned BT automated **bleep** line that needs replacing with real people from the UK and create jobs in the UK rather then India or do away with the automated system completely. RANT over. I was then told i had to cancel the order, get my brother to cancel the termination of his broadband, Job done. I complained a bit (not to aggressively) about the cancellation of the order and that i asked for a new line installation and i was then put through to a UK BT sales person to set up a new order!
I set the order up was given some story i could get free BT vision for a year as i was messed around, then told i wasn't allowed it (was this to sweeten me up i now ask myself).
The nice speaking English woman then said i could have the same contract BT Broadband Option1 twelve month contract so on. But that i couldn't pay for the line rental saver straight away and that i had to do this when the connection was set-up(fair enough i thought) They took my email address over the phone but never gave me a btinternet.com address.
I received an email from BT stating i had to confirm my email address but when i entered my details i always got an error please try again later. I then logged into MyBT page and discovered i had to wait 3 weeks until i received my BT homehub and the engineer to come round and install the line. thought ok this is a long time to wait but so be  it.
7th of november arrived great new internet to be installed today i woke early thinking there was gonna be a problem today, helped dad rig up some new cables around the house!! waited for the engineer waited  and waited no router delivery either well mid afternoon i phone BT up again and after the 3rd call got through to some one.
Now to my shock and horror i was told that my order had failed for some reason which wasn't explained and that neither the engineer nor my router would turn up. Then to even more shock i was told that i would have to have this order cancelled and then reorder it after 24hrs. B y this time i was a little angry(no steam coming out my ears as to yet) I then asked why the order had to be cancelled and the pretty sounding Indian women gave no answer and repeated that there was a problem with the order. I then angrily said that the problem was your end and that i was lead to believe that my order was supposed to be set-up that day! Which the woman then stayed quiet and didn't respond no answer after about 30 seconds i repeat my question with i am sorry sir. an then no response i stayed on the phone with her ignoring me for at least a minute and said what can be done about this. you should be able to sort it out. repsonse was that i had to reorder then have to wait again for 3 weeks.
I then asked to be put through to a manager 5 minutes later of music and i was through i explained what had happened and he said he would make some inquiries. 5 minutes later he came back(more Music) and said i had to phone back tomorrow and that it was something  like it was the engineers fault this happened and that i would probably have to reorder.
If it was the engineers fault why would i have to reorder couldn't they just send him out a few days later. No very annoyed me and shocked have to reorder again and wait for how long i do not know! perhaps the order will fail again.
I  have had to take a day out of work and need this new connection for my work!
Can anyone shed some light on why this happened and whether there is a fast track service to get me up and running!
SOME FEED BACK WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

    I have an i phone 4s, I have had it just over a month. The charger is not working and it has to be returned. Very disappointed considering it is Apple I expected  better and have never had this problem with any other phone. Now I have the inconvenience of having to return it and waiting for a replacement and in the meantime I'm without a phone. Has this happened to anyone else?

    Wow, life is certainly tough for you.

    I'm having the same problem. Dreamweaver is supper slow. Uploading and downloads from the server... any server I use two different servers. It times out all the time. Menus are slow too.
    I'm on a MAC Pro, 6 gigs of ram no issues with anything else. I have talked to Apple they have checked everything for me. They say it's Dreamweaver. I've noticed the Dreamweaver is talking to the FTP even when I'm not doing anything.
    I've tried cleaning out my MAC caches, turning off file check and check out. Still really slow. I've worked with Dreamweaver for 6 years never any issues like this before. 18 seconds to upload a 4 kb file. 11 seconds to download the same file.

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPhone by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPhone. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • Can find my iPhone be turned on remotely? I had it turned off, and twice in the last month I've found that it is turned on and someone was tracking my location. I'm a little freaked out!

    Can find my iPhone be turned on remotely? I had it turned off, and twice in the last month I've found that it is turned on and someone was tracking my location. I'm a little freaked out! Is there any way that someone could be turning "find my iPhone" on remotely? I was under the assumption that the only way to turn the service on was from my phone itself.. Is there any way that my phone is somehow resetting itself to a time when the app was turned on? I'm just grabbing straws here... I have no idea. I just know that the location arrow came on at the top of my phone, and it showed that someone was tracking my phone at that very moment... Any help would be appreciated!

  • Hi my late 2008 model Mac Book Pro has gotten really slow and has made a loud noise twice in the last month.

    My Macbook is not acting right it has gotten very sluggish online and has made a really loud buzz or screaching sound twice  in the last month.  The first time I was just on the internet and it wouldn't quit making the loud noise until I turned it off and back on.  This last time it made it while restarting it or was in the process of restarting from updating and while it was still a black screen it made that noise but stoped on its own this time.  I have no idea what to check in Macs or where to looks for errors or problems.  If someone could please direct me in what I can check to see if there is any info on what may be problemactic on my computer.  Thank you. Laurie

    Thank you ds store for replying.  Not to sound ignorant but I am when it comes time to this...how do I upgrade to 10.6?  I also think I have all the ram installed I can on it.  This is what system profiler shows in memory.

    Also the link you profided is this what the update to 10.6 will provide?  I really didn't understand the tech language so I didn't understand what it was telling me.  I am sorry to be so inept on this.  I just had to have the battery replaced about a month ago and while in the store I was asking the tech to check all the error messages and make sure everything was OK because I had no clue what they meant or if I had any problems.  I just use it I guess you would say.  The tech said I didn't need to worry about any of that stuff that Mac's don't get viruses and I was fine.  Well that didn't answer checking for hardware problems or anything like that but he didn't have anything else to say about it.

  • Hi Apple! I am having a few problems with my 6 month old iPad mini (ios 7.1.1). I am using my iPad and then some time later it just restars! Don't know why and it just keeps doing it! Please fix or if I restore my iPad will it do any good? Thank you

    Plug your iPad into your computer, open iTunes, and click Restore. This will reset your iPad to factory settings, so make sure everything important is stored safely. Once the restore is complete, do NOT restore from your backup.
    If you still have problems, take the iPad to the Apple Store or another AASP (Apple Authorised Service Provider). If you're still within warranty, any service will be of no cost. Check your serial number here or find your receipt.
    Hope I've helped!

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • Horrible Customer Service!  And a 33 month old BB problem continues to exist!

    I have been a Verizon Wireless Customer for over 7 years.  I have been a Blackberry user for even longer.  In November of 2008, I switched my Blackberry World phone for the then new, Blackberry Storm.  I kept my same phone number, had no previous problems with the World phone or any calling issues, etc.  I just thought I might like the latest and greatest.  Almost immediately after getting the Storm, I started getting these strange 1 way audio problems.  When I say 1 way audio, I mean, I could here the other person on the end of the line, but they could no longer here me.  It was strange and it happened infrequently.  After about two weeks of having the storm, I decided that I really did hate not having the qwerty keyboard and so I took the storm back and got the BB Curve.  Again, noticed that I had the same 1 way audio problems and contacted VZW customer service.  After sending me out a new phone and several customer service calls, VZW opened a trouble tickets.  It was never resolved and conveniently closed, with Verizon saying they could not duplicate the problem.  I was not experiencing dropped calls.  I still had full bars, was still connected to the party on the other end of the line and it was happening in a bunch of different places.  I went thru this with the Storm, the Curve, the Tour and the Bold, all with this same sporadic one way audio, all with multiple different Blackberries being sent out to me, because Verizon was sure it was the Blackberry and not them!   Customer service suggested, on many occasions, that I switch my phone number.  WHY???  It didn't happen the first 3 years I had the phone number.  They also, had the audacity to suggest that I switch to a different platform.  HUH???  All of the sudden, I'm the only one in the neighborhood, who cannot have a blackberry phone, because it just no longer works for me????  Numerous tickets were open and no one would ever get back to me.  I couldn't get a VZW Tech to call me back if my life depended on it.  Call with one way audio were hounding me and VZW told me to mark my calls, where this happened.  Did all of that and they still couldn't find the problem.  The one way audio even happened when I was on one of the many calls to a Verizon Tech....yet they still could not "duplicate" my problem.  To this very day, they still have not found a solution.  After many months of dealing with Verizon (or not dealing with them, because they wouldn't call back) and researching new phones, I decided today, to try out an Android platform phone, just to stop the madness.  I called VZW and told them which phone I wanted (I needed something that would have a long battery life, had good reviews, etc) and they told me that I could NOT have the Motorola Android 3, but I would have to take a reconditioned Droid Pro instead.  I explained to them in no uncertain terms, that I was unwilling to pay for this change, as it's been an ongoing issue, that Verizon failed to ever fix or even acknowledge.  While I was getting stuck with a phone that I really don't want, I was completely tired of dealing with these issues, Verizon and my understandably irritated customers.  After the phone order was placed, the Verizon Customer Service guy, tells me that I have to return my Blackberry, within 10 business days or I would be charged for it.  WAIT!!!!  I don't even really want to change to an Android phone, I just want to try one out and see if this is going to give me the same issues as the BB.  Why do I have to return the Blackberry?  And why did Customer Service wait until we were almost finished with the conversation to unleash that little bit of information??  I would have never agreed to getting an Android, should I have known they were going to make me give up my BB too.  No, I don't want the Android phone just to have an Android.  I want Verizon to figure out what is wrong with my phone in the first place, but it's not going to happen!!!!  So, I was really left with no alternative, but to try another phone.  I have never gotten any compensation, in the almost 3 years this problem has been going on.  I have not asked for anything, except for Verizon to fix an issue that is clearly their problem.  We have another Verizon phone in our house and another line somewhere else and we have no problems with the other phones.  I have had at least 10 different blackberries in the last 33 months and all have had the same issue.  Quit blaming the phone VERIZON.  Don't ask your customers to give up their phone numbers and change platforms, all because of your incompetence.  I NEVER write reviews or go into any kind of forums, etc., but I've had it!!  Customer Service ignores the issues.  I didn't even know that any of the tickets were closed, until I called back with a ticket number, only to find out that the issue was unresolved and because of this, they had closed yet another ticket.  To me, the fact they are making me return my Blackberry, just to try out another phone, is beyond comprehension.  To top it all off, at the end of each of the conversations, the guy had the nerve to ask me if all of my needs were met, due to the issue.  Lol!  Yeah, they were all met!  Why ask that question to someone you know that is completely ticked off at you????

    I'm sorry, but when does swaping from a Blackberry Bold to an Droid Pro (certified pre-owned) qualify as an upgrade?
    Secondly, I've had my phone number for over 7 years.  It worked just fine for over 3 of those years.  Why should I have to give up my phone number?  It's not only a personal number, but a business number as well.  I have more than worked with Verizon to figure out this problem.  Done way more than my share and for anyone to say that I'm unwilling to work with them is beyond belief.  I have marked every single call that has gone bad.  I have turned off my phone for a period, to see if it was the network.  I have switched Blackberry's numerious times.  Why does everyone just jump to changing a phone number?  Say I did this.  What are they going to do with that phone number?  It goes right back out there for someone else to have.  That's what Verizon told me.  If that's the case and the next person who picks it up has no problem, then it wasn't the phone, or me, or the number.  
    Oh, and Verizon has spent a lot of money trying to fix my problem??  Well, I've spent a ton of money myself, paying for a phone that doesn't work, time and energy switching from Blackberry to Blackberry, and not even mentioning the amount of time I've spent trying to figure out this problem, to no avail!
    If something didn't work for 4 years I would be willing to try something else. Then again I don't run a business from a cell phone..
