No phone line for 3 weeks, and no idea what is hap...

I reported a fault with our phone on 28Oct. The BT engineer came on 31Oct, at which point the phone was completely dead, and he said the wiring in our house was ok, the fault was in the line outside our house in the pavement in front of the house. The wire was worn away and needed replacing. The road diggers came 7Nov and dug a trench on the pavement in front of the house and showed me the wires, which were almost raw. They placed the wires in a tube, and re- tarmac'd the pavement, leaving the ends open. We then had to wait for the BT engineer to come back and replace the wires between the two holes. On 11Nov, the road men came back and poured cement into one hole. At this point we lost broadband connections to the house. I rang BT broadband to register the bt hub was flashing a red 'b'...they said they couldn't find a circuit to the house. The BT engineer arrived 2pm and said he couldn't replace the wiring 'cos cement had been poured into one of the holes before he'd replaced the wires, and the hole needed to be re-dug. He said the cement had probably caused the broadband line to go down. He rang in and registered all this. Nothing happened 12 and 13th. I rang BT 13th evening and was told the road diggers would come 14th and the BT engineer would come 14th and it would be all fixed today. No one came today. At 6pm BT rang and said the problem will be fixed tmrw. At 7pm BT rang and said as the road had been dug up today the cabling would be completed tmrw. I said NO ONE has dug up the road. They said it's all being done at the exchange and once they have replaced the joints and cables at the exchange tmrw it will be fixed. How can replacing the cables at the exchange fix the wires outside our house?? I have asked this question, but the Indian lady on the phone said it will all work tmrw. She is just reading a script.... I don't know who to talk to because I can't understand how it will all work miraculously tmrw. We have had no phone line since 28oct and no broadband since 11nov. Can someone please please tell me what is happening, because every time I ring I talk to someone in India who has no idea.

    Hi,
    I am getting a warning message on screen, saying that myiPad hasn't been backed up to iCloud for two weeks, and advising under what circumstances the message appears. My problem is, is that I have backed it up, but am unable to remove the message, and whilst the message is there, the iPad is frozen, and I cannot do anything.
    Has any other user had such a problem, and if so, how did they rectify it.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up

  • No Phone Line for 1 week; moving towards urgent!

    Hello All, I am posting this on behalf of my father.
    Problem
    Phone line has not worked for a week; BT broadband works. Context: he lives along a country lane, nearly all his neighbours are experiencing problems with their phone line, broadband or both. Becoming urgent? One of his neighbour's husband died this week and she has had no phone line to organise the funeral. She now has a mobile phone which she can hardly use, she is very elderly. That example was to illustrate that inaction can really affect people.
    Actions Taken
    1. My Dad phoned the BT fault line. BT (to give them credit) arrived the next day. They checked the wiring inside the house and confirmed the fault lay with BT. They then confirmed that they needed to dig up the road and the job was with 'Planning' and there was nothing more they can do.
    Follow Up
    1) My Dad did not get a reference from the BT guys that initially visited.
    2) He has not heard back from BT of their Planning department.
    3) He has tried to phone Customer Services but ends up in India and gets confused. He is elderly as well.
    4) He did manage to use the Live Chat function last night and communicated the problem on his line. He got a text today to say it was all fixed and his phone would work. He got home and his phone did not work. Something he could not get his head around since BT texted him to say it would be working. Different generation, different values!!
    Conclusion
    I guess I am asking for help or advice. Any help would be much appreciated.

  • No landlline for 3 weeks and counting

    We have had a phone fault for 3 weeks now, since 25th April. no incoimg calls and no outgoing calls. BT said they would redirect calls to a mobile but have failed to do this. BT have not contacted us to tell us when the fault will be fixed, nor how to claim compensation. I hate to thiink what we are spending on the mobile now. I don't have time to spend ages on the phone in a queue, but how come BT can't apporach me to tell me what's wrong? After all we are way past the standard 3 days to fix a fault. How come BT can email me every quarter about my bill, but can't email me to tell me what's happening. The fault tracking system has been updated once in the last 2 weeks and simply say's "we're working on your fault". The silence is deafening. Wasn't it BT who had the advertising slogan 'it's good to talk'.

  • Cost of new phone line for BT Basic customers

    I have ordered a new phone line for my 92 year old mother who is moving sheltered housing flats.  She will be charged £130 for the new line because a) there is not an existing line to take over and b) she is a BT Basic customer.  These customers are discriminated against as they are on low income and seem to be the only type of customer that is charged this fee.  Also because it  is just a phone line ie no broadband etc she will be 10 days with no phone and her mobile does not work inside her new flat.  She is a very vulnerable person and again seems to be discriminated against. Any one got any ideas?

    HI the 130.00 charge is made by Openreach for the work to install a new line this charge is made to all customers that need a new line installing for the first time there is no discrimination because you are a BT basic customer like wise the time scale is also the same for all customers it depends on the availability of an engineer to carry out the work

  • Business scenarios for daily, weekly and nightly loads!!

    Can any body tell some Business scenarios for daily, weekly and nightly loads where we monitor the loads in Production support.
    Regards
    srikanth.ch

    Hi,
    It all depends on your business needs. In general on daily basis you will load the SD and MM which will cover all the stock and sales done for day. Generally most of the clients use Lo Cockpit extraction for both the modules. FI chains will run on month end for example the AP(Accounts Payable),AR(Accounts Receivable) chains will be run on the month end.
    Some SD datasources : 2lis_13_vdhdr, 2lis_13_vditm, 2lis_13_vdkon - all these to pull billing related data
    Some MM Datasource : 2lis_03_bx and 2lis_03_bf.

  • How to get data for current week and previous week using customer exit in Bex.

    Hi everyone,
    I have a scenario in which I need to display data for current week and previous week (based on "sy_datum" the program has to calculate current week and previous week) in Bex using  Customer exit. I have created one variable in Bex Query Designer and I have written code for the variable in CMOD. But it is not working fine, (I know that we can do the same by using offset value in Bex). Can some one guide me how to achieve my requirement using customer exit.

    The tools are not responding when I try to use them.  Some of them work sometimes, but not others and some don't work at all.  I'm in a design class online and I need these tools desperately.  I have an assignment due Monday and I'm losing the whole weekend because Tech Support is only open M-F!

    The process to update your Tom Tom is a big data file, you will need to be connected to a Wi-Fi network for it to download.  If will take about an hour. 

  • How can I get my ipod nano (6th gen) to stop making a static-y noise when I try to listen to my music? It has been doing this for a week and the music is faint while the static is louder than it.

    It has been doing this for a week and the music is faint while the static is louder than it. I try plugging it in to my iTunes and when I un-plug it, it still makes the loud static noise. I have also tried tapping my knuckle on the back of my ipod nano. This has not damaged it at all nor caused this to my ipod. There is no water damage to the ipod. Only a few scratches from a couple drops. The drops have been on concrete but not at a very high distance. How to I stop this? Do I need to replace my ipod instead?

    Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones?  You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack.  Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage.  You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
    I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?
