Order BT now, get Infinity end of march??

Hi,
Just moved house and have looked into Infinity, it's available from 31st March in my area.
Would I be able to get a normal BT broadband until then, then get upgraded to Infinity straight away??
Thanks

you could upgrade to infinity when available but there are numerous posts on the forum about the dates for infinity being moved back often by months - so be aware that march 2011 may not happen until later

  • Was able to get infinity but now can't?

    Hi
    I have been checking the BT website for a while now since Sky bought O2 (my current provider).  It has always confirmed that I was able to get Infinity 2.  Even last week when I almost completed the order but cancelled at the final step as I had only just received my MAC code (and apparently I could not use it for seven days otherwise I would be charged).  It was all good news you can get Infiinity 2. 
    But now, went to order tonight and now I cannot get it.  The openreach website shows all the surrounding exchanges are accepting orders.  My neighbour (two doors away) who is an openreach engineer has confirmed that he has it and that both our telephone lines share the same cabinet.  Thanks to my neighbour I know that my cabinet has been upgraded.  I can even follow both our telephone lines to the same cabinet (we still have telegraph poles) and the cabinet is 50 metres away.  So what has happened?
    Sabotage by Sky (joking) or just bad planning from BT and too many people signed up for BT Sports?? 
    Trouble is it now means that I am severely tempted by the offer that Sky is trying to intice me with of free broadband and Sky Entertainment plus for a year but it means that I will have to transfer my phone to them and I am just not keen on moving wholesale to Sky.
    Just to confirm that my telephone line has always been with BT and has never been transferred to another service provdier.
    I am in Eastbourne - BN22 8.
    Thanks

    I'm afraid it probably means that the cabinet has reached its capacity for FTTC users.  If lots more people want it they may and extra capacity but not for some time.
    Probably worth trying every few days for a bit in case there was a mistake, or someone cancels.
    You could also see what happens if you try an order with PlusNet or similar.  You'll probably get the same result; all the FTTC ISP's share the BT Openreach cabient resources; first come first served.

  • I pre-ordered an iPhone 6 Plus and the delivery date now says October 14th. The point of the pre-order is to get it on release day (or shortly thereafter). Can I go to a Verizon store to pick up my new phone on release day?

    I pre-ordered an iPhone 6 Plus and the delivery date now says October 14th. The point of the pre-order is to get it on release day (or shortly thereafter). Can I go to a Verizon store to pick up my new phone on release day?

    I'm not sure that answers the question Candice.
    I'm in the same situation.  I was up trying to get on the Verizon page at 11:55, kept getting the ECPD error.  When finally got through, the Silver Iphone Plus 64 showed arrival of 9-19.  At every step of the process, it seemed that I was ordering a phone that would arrive on day1.  At no point did it say this was an estimate.  At no point did it say it might change.  In a big yellow box, it said "9-19".  Ordered it, then got confirmation email stating it should arrive at 9-19.   Seems like all should be good, right?  Order site said 9-19, I've got a confirmation email saying 9-19, done and done.
    Then I check the website, and suddenly it changed to 10-14?!?!?!?  I feel like this was a bait and switch.  I was able to pickup an iphone5 in a local store on launch day, and would not have locked myself into a preorder through Verizon if I had known this would happen!
    So, that leads back to the original questions.  Lets assume I walk into a Verizon store on 9-19, and there is an available iphone6 plus just sitting there, can I either get that phone as fulfillment of my pre-order.  Or, cancel my pre-order and buy that phone right then and there?

  • My new events no longer show up in Events, since I upgraded to iPhoto 11 at the end of March. The number of events goes up, but they no longer show. The photos are in my photo place all right, but everything is getting every messy and confusing. Help!

    I upgraded to iPhoto 11 from iPhoto 08 at the end of March, 2012. Since then, although all my photos appear in the library,and the number of events tally goes up, no new events show up in Events. My iPhoto is getting very mess and confusing. I have checked preferences, and they are the same as what I always had (one event/day)

    Go into the Event mode and set the View ➙ Sort menu option to By Date, either ascending or descending, and look for the new events at the top or bottom of the list.
    You can view the last import in the Last Import section and then Control (right) click on one of the photos and select Show Event.  That will take you to the event where you can rename it at the top and then check to see where in the list it is placed.

  • BT refuse to acknowledge I can get Infinity

    Hi all, been fighting BT for several weeks on getting BT Infinity now.  Despite getting letters in the post to say BT Infinity is now available, I have simply been unable to get BT to acknowledge that Infinity is available in my area.
    Here's the situation:
    Property has been on Sky phone and broadband service for at least a year
    Area is relatively new (built within the last 5 years) - postcode RG2 9FS connected to Reading South Exchange which is FTTC ready
    Online Infinity checker last year said I would be able to get Infinity around March 2012
    March arrives and I get the letter from BT saying I can signup so I give them a call and they say nope it's not supported in my area
    Reluctant to give up on this, I try tapping in my next door neighbours address details in the online checker and it says they can get Infinity.  I try this for all the houses on my street and they can all get it.  I try several more houses on adjacent streets and on the rest of the estate and it shows they can all get it.  I explain this to BT sales but they say the same thing - system says no, I can't place my order - it's just not available because you're not connected.  You must be on a cabinet that isn't fibre ready.
    Sounds like bull so I reach out for support on the thinkbroadband forum. It was suggested that propety may not be listed as 'gold' on the BT database as property may never have been using BT services (i.e. always on Sky or some other provider).  And that the next thing I should do is to signup for a BT phone line.
    So today I've just had BT line with BT ADSL activated.
    When the Openreach engineer was replacing the faceplate for my phone socket and doing his checks I asked him if this property is Infinity enabled and he said yes - all of the houses on this estate are going through the same cabinet and the same exchange and Infinity is enabled.  There is no technical reason why I can't get Infinity.  His word was good enough for me so I tried the Infinity checker and it recognised my phone number (earlier in the day it didn't) but it's still saying Infinity isn't supported.
    There doesn't seem to be any sort of escalation route for this.  I've tried escalating via the BT Twitter account but last time I did this they just fobbed me off saying it's just not supported in my area - which turns out to be completely untrue and wrong.
    Is anyone here from BT listening - can you knock some sense in to your systems and get this resolved?

    Hi
    This is a customer to Customer self help forum the only BT presence here are the Forum Moderators
    If your line has only just been activated today it can take up to 5 days for a new number to get on the database

  • Am I due to get Infinity soon?

    Hi, I've noticed several BT vans in the local area recently putting up new cabinets and digging holes, so I'm hopeful it will be soon! I've attached a photo of a cabinet near my house that has just been put up- can anyone tell me if it's an Infinity cabinet as I've seen larger ones?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you are connected to that PCP then yes, you are going to be able to get Infinity. However, it could still be some time before that is the case. My cabinet was installed in early February this year but wasn't activated to permit orders until the end of June.
    That said it does look like they have dug a route to the cabinet recently so the power already be installed (almost certainly power as it goes to the pavement rather than a BT manhole or the PCP next door). Keep an eye on the BT Wholesale checker to see when it goes live for orders.

  • I have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number

    i have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number. also, when i click buy, i get an error message saying, "application not found."

    There are two different LR’s, one with a serial-number licensing and one with a CC-signin license.
    You should uninstall the serial-number LR you have installed, then
    Quit the CC Desktop application,
    Restart the CC Desktop application—this will rescan what you have installed and not see LR,
    LR will now be on the CC Desktiop apps list, so install that.

  • Purchase order no not getting displayed in FBL3N for doucment type RE

    Dear all,
    We have done a settings in FBL3N t.code. We have added BSEG-EBELN in the special fields and saved the layout. The purpose is to make the purchase order number to display when we are executing line item display for GR/IR clearing and Cenvat clearing gl account. Purchase order number is correctly getting displayed in Gr/ir clearing account. But in cenvat clearing gl account the transactions that are related to doucment type SA(that is J1IEX transaction), the purchase order number is getting displayed, but in the transactions that are related to document type RE(MIRO transactions), the purcahse order number is not getting displayed.
    We have checked the BSEG table for the gl account. The purchase order number is not getting updated for the MIRO transactions in the cenvat clearing gl account.
    Please suggest us so that the above issue can be solved.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Anand

    Hi,
    Could you please add field BSEG-EBELN as a special field in FBL3N (from menu path Settings -> Special fields). Then, select the Purchase order field again from "Change Layout" (Ctrl+F8). Now this field is available for display variants, it has the technical name 1-U_EBELN and the description 'Purchase Document'. The other field has the same description but as technical name
    '1-EBELN'. When you create a display variant be aware that you select 1-U_EBELN and not 1-EBELN.
    Please also refer to note 215798.

    If you haven't already done these steps, this section contains information that might help your situation, as the order and manner which you uninstall has an effect on the outcome:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.

  • HT201210 I downloaded the latest update to itunes.  I am now getting a message that my ipod is on recovery mode and needs to be restored.  When I click to restore, it says it does not recognize the device.

    I downloaded the latest version of itunes.  I am now getting the message that my ipod is in recovery and needs to be restored.  When I click to restore, it says it does not recognize this device.  Now my ipod is frozen with an image of a cord and an arrow pointing toward the itunes icon.  All was working fine before the download!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Acrobat fails to open after software update (end of March 2012) in Lion

    When opening a PDF in Acrobat x Pro the programme crashes, ever since I did a software update at the end of March 2012.
    I have also been having problems with emailing PDFs, with emails disappearing or getting corrupted.
    Seems worse if I have Firefox open at the same time.

    Still failing to launch after repairing permissions and restart.
    Part of the report says:
    AcroSecurityBailOutImpl
    It has always opened the file when I try a second or third time, though.
    It's just the first once or twice that it fails.

  • Tried to download an update. Failed. Now get messageMSVCR80.dll missing. Any ideas

    Tried to download an update last week. Failed message. Now get messageMSVCR80.dll missing. Advised to download new Itunes programme. Would this delete all my existing library and wish list? Any ideas

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Archived Service Orders settling in the month end job!!!

    Hi All,
    Service orders were archived using object PM_ORDER and now the month end settlement job has settled some very old service contracts. Why is this happening inspite of running the archive pre process job which ensures that the service orders have been settled before archiving them.
    What can be done to correct them? We have a list of order numbers which have got settled, but not sure how to set this problem right.
    Plus need to prevent this from happening in the next month end settlement.
    This is a critical issue.. so any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance!
    Janani

    Hi ,
    1)  In general , archived Orders won't be avl in the system for process. Check whether those orders are really archived .
    2) While running preprocess for archiving that is deletion process for Orders , it might have closed/deleted the linked objects ( for e.g. Purchase requisitions,reservation, etc ) . System might have settled those orders in the current settlement run

  • Too close to the exchange to get Infinity???

    Hi,
    I wonder if anyone can verfiy te following please?.  
    I live on the outskirts of Reading and have been told by a neighbour, who managed to speak to someone at BT, that in our road we are never likley to be able to get BT Infinity the reason being as follows:
    We are close to the Spencers Wood exchange and the lines to our road come directly from the exchange and not from a road side cabinet. In order to get Infinity the line must come from the cabinet and not the exchange.  Therefore although the exchange has been upgraded to be able to provide Infinity it is only possible to get this if you are supplied from a cabinet.  So, a number of houses round about us can get it, but we are unlikley to ever get it.
    Is anyone able to verify the accuracy of this please, and are there any other options available?
    Thank you.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    BT Infinity runs off two kinds of VDSL types;
    FTTC - Fibre to the Cabinet. This is where there is a fibre line from the Exchange to the street cabinet then normal copper from there to the house/business.
    FTTP - Fibre to the Premises. This is where you have a fibre line all the way from the Exchange to the house/premises and doesn't route through a FTTC, aka RDSLAM.
    If your line is an EOL (Exchange Only Line) then you will have to wait for a FTTP Service to become available in your area.

  • Next-door gets infinity but i dont

    I have been looking into getting infinity for a very long time now because i am the main user of the internet in our household. I regularly upload videos to youtube, but it takes a long time as well as knocking out wifi on all other devices. I recently noticed on my phone that a house nearby is using a hh5. (I believe is made for infinity) so i went online out of curiosity to check whether houses nearby got infinity. Turns out my nextdoor neighbour has infinity but for me it says i cant have it. I am just asking why this is the case. What did they do which allows them infinity which we havent done?

    If you use the checker posted by imjolly in the above post it will tell what cabinet you are on and what services it can receive.
    If it does not show a cabinet number it will be because you are on an Exchange Only(EO) line. This means you can not get Infinity because you are not connected to a cabinet, instead you are connected directly to the exchange.
    Sometime in the future Openreach may install a cabinet out side the exchange and this will allow EO lines to connect to a cabinet. This however is not high on their priority list so may take some time.
    Use your phone number. If you don't have a BT number use the address checker. It is more accurate than the post code checker which can cover more than one cabinet.
