Lack of communication from the, so-say, world lead...

ever had to eat your words?
We are moving to a new property in Devon.  Booked BT well in advance.  Also booked 9 other tradesmen fro mAerial installer, plumber, electrician Intruder alarm installation - all turned up when they said they would, did an excellent job.
The tenth person booked?  BT of course DID NOT turn up - no communication nothing, zip, zilch.
having worked for BT for nearly 15 years (Global Services) I learnt to comunicate with the customer and if there was a problem, at least offer a solution or time scale to fix.  Openreach of course do not have to adhere to this common polite principle!
having told all concerned of our plans everyone, without fail sais " Good luck with BT"  I assured them that it was the BT of old they were thinking of - it had changed so much.  So eating my words was very painful and embarrasing!
At time of writing, after 3 phone calls and 2 emails Openreach still treat us with disdain.  Virgin Media or Talk Talk look like a better bet at present, so I hope all the engineers involved in this remember when they complain about losing their jobs through lack of orders with BT.  I'm trying to bear in mind that BT contribute to my pension, but it is difficult!

unless you can get virgin by cable all providers use Openreach for line installations and maintenance

  • Communication from the Oracle Mngt service host to the agent host failed

    Hi There,
    I have installed Oracle 10.2.0.1 Grid software on a Solaris Zone. I plan to upgrade it to 10.2.0.5 very soon but would like to test the agent connection from a remote server first. I installed agent version 10.2.0.5 on the remote server. When I log into the oracle grid GUI I can see the host called "localhost" (this is not the correct name. It should be the server name) and the database instances on that server. However, when I select the localhost and press the configure button I get the following message:
    Communication from the Oracle Mngt service host to the agent host failed. Refer to help for details localhost:cn=servername
    The system administrators changed the /etc/hosts file to make sure the server was listed first fully qualified. For example: servername.domain.com instead of servername. However, this did no make a difference.
    Could the issue be any of the following:
    - Oracle 10.2.0.1 GRID does not work with 10.2.0.5 agents ?
    - Oracle GRID in general don't work on SOLARIS Zones?
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    OMS - -> Agent communication is not upward compatible
    Downward, so Agent 10.2.0.1 --> OMS 10.2.0.5, should not be a problem.
    In the last case however, you would not have access to any 10.2.0.5 Agent features.
    So you can choose from 2 working options:
    1 - Install the 10.2.0.1 Agent
    2 - Upgrade your OMS to 10.2.0.5 (preferable)
    Regards

    If you mean that you have been instructed to contact iTunes support, then will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

  • Lack of communication from Apple

    Given that we are now in the midst of a disasterous release of the new IPhone software, it sure would be nice to see a pinned message at the top of each iPhone discussion saying something like this:
    Sorry, folks! We really screwed this up but please be patient and we'll have all your iPhones working as soon as we can.
    Is there a corporate policy against such commuication?
    John Link

    I agree. As someone with fairly limited experience dealing with Apple and hence major software updates, I have been sitting back for some time scratching my head at the tactics they use that end up "training" consumers in weird ways. For example, I think most are now conditioned to buy the next new thing with caution since we all pretty much now expect them to release something better cheaper in about a year.
    I've been watching this software update with fascination as well. The rollout strategy was just begging for a disaster. To rollout a major hardware and software upgrade on the same day is ********. Also, why make everyone guess and make assumptions as to when the software update would be released? Why keep 'coming soon" as the date for releasing the 2.0 software on the web (The supposedly point of reference for product information)? Because of this, people were spending time looking for ways to circumvent them, hence those of who updated yesterday from the scrounged file (up and running fine, thank you!).
    It's all about COMMUNICATION and organization!

There never was a problem on Opera. Hey! OPERA rule. As foe IE 8. That instrument is completely useless. Even all areon IE appears to be dead...Thanx!

  • I am unable to download Adobe Acrobat Standard from the cloud says the "Adobe Acrobat is not currently available for your language or platform." I am running Vista and using Chrome

    I just subscribed to Adobe Acrobat Standard from the cloud. I am running microsoft Vista and Google Chrome browser.

  • I am using Firefox 7.When I tried to open a player the install instructions from the website says, download the widevine plugin from the automatic download pop-up,but my Firefox browser doesn't show me the automatic download pop up to download the plugin.

    The automatic download pop up for downloading the plugin was not showing in my firefox 7 browser.

    Hi and thanks to not leaving the firefox user alone.
    Cor-el your answer is right as the madperson is and I already knew all these
    answer and I said that before I don’t use any antivirus and I always turn off my firewall from the moment I installed my Windows.
    I even turn off any automatic update for any of my software and I never let any unknown plugins or any thing like that be install without informing me. And if you know some things like Offline Storage and cookies must be to much more than usual and you have to clear them and delete them and I know so much more
    And if you want to know it fixed now. But I don’t know how?
    For understanding my problem read and research about Ixplorer.exe virus it is the same problem about the speed but the different is it doesn’t show any process in task manager like Ixplorer.exe virus
    Bt I have done some things but still I don’t know that’s why it is fixed or not
    First: I searched my system and removed any files have been crated on my system from two days ago since the problem happened.
    And then I used to go about the article in this page and did like this:
    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080910101846AAazxN5
    but still I don’t know any thing about the problem.
    I can do so many things to fix but I am just curios if that is a virus why it just cut the speed when I am using the browser.
    Please if any one found the reason send me your information I like to know it will improve my knowledge however my problem is solved fro now.

  • How do you retrieve a certificate from the browser(say firefox) cert store?

    I want to retrieve certficate from the firefox certificate store and to use the same in jvm context to avoid the popup for certficate acceptance again and again( in case of reauthentication )..
    can anybody help me..
    thnx..

    Firefox stores its certificate in a file called cert8.db. On the Linux/UNIX environment, this file is in a subdirectory of your $HOME directory called .mozilla/. On Windows, it is typically in the c:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<Random Hash Value>\ directory.
    Before you load the keystore, I am assuming you have configured the SunPKCS11 JCE Provider in your java.security file, and have gotten an instance of the provider using the KeyStore.getInstance("PKCS11") call. You should only have one PKCS11 providrer in java.security for this to work.
    While the configuration file for JDK6 has changed a little bit, the concept and capability has not. If you're having trouble with JDK6, I would recommend trying it out on JDK5 first and making sure it works on your machine, and then trying it with JDK6. The source code in the keystoreLoaderHelper.java file in the SKCL module of the StrongKey source distribution (www.strongkey.org) has all the code in it that shows how to load keys/certificates using the Firefox and the JKS keystores.

  • No communication from the Telecommunications co.

    I ordered a phone and Internet from BT on 5th March for installation on 2nd April.  Today is 11th April and I'm still waiting.....
    I have an email addresss, a mobile and a work landline. Maybe BT can do the 'Tele' but they can't do the communication...
    Oh wait- they can't do the 'Tele' either! 

    I've lost track of the number of times I have tried to contact BT- usually several attempts to get through the IVR before speaking to someone who can only read what's on the screen in front of them.
    An email to Warren Buckley did generate an email AND a phone call from BT (who knew they had such technological advances) and now I have a working phone.
    Still waiting for the internet though. 10 days late and counting....

    Hi Lhea
    Welcome to the Community
    If you're using a Chrome or Firefox, I suggest you use Internet explorer for the meantime, once the plugin has been intalled on the browser, since Chrome and Internet explorer almost share the same settings, it should work well with Chrome after it.
    Please leave a post if you have any further questions.

  • I'M coming from the terrible windows world and I feel concerned about sending emails with attachementes like " pages or numbers" to my contacts since most of them use windowds " Word or Excell". What should I do ?

    In my new iPad2 I have no problem with my incoming mail because Ipad2 can read Windows attachements like "word or excell" . The problem I confront is if I want to send a message with an attachement from itunes apps like "pages or numbers" , Will my contacts (using most of them Windows based docs.) be able to open and read them? As I can not use any non Apple  docs for a new doc.,What can I do?Thanks in advance

    Have you taken a look at iWork.com? It is a convenient place for sharing documents and the nice thing is the user you share the document with can download it as a word file. Formatting issues are a possibility with with text only docs that isn't so much an issue. Also consider QuickOffice or Docs2Go which are both Office compatible apps.
