i ventured on a certain telecoms outfit for a while i could not get any sense out of the fault line staff. when they finally wanted to sort it out/understand me they charged me £88 to to have an engineer out to repair their fault, needless to say they apologised about not telling me i would be charged but did not offer me a refund- so came off of them like a shot.
now a bt hubber.

Nothing outrageous going on that line at that time TD - just a check for AV updates and MS Patches (and a mirror sync if there are) between 5 and 6am...

Phoned up the w*****ks tonight and cancelled - well downgrade to PAYG and crap card connection.

Told them due to their poor service I'm off to BT!

I would like to confirm for that Onetel do not support ISDN so you will not be able to get Dial Up with this type of line.  I am very sorry for any confusion and inconvenience caused.

Currently on go faster PAYG Ukonline at 128kbps

I think it maybe me.....well not me....but the pishing filter check.....it sometimes goes for quite a while at the bottom of the browser before display the pages.....ive turned it off to see if it makes a difference....btw anyone know what the difference is between disable pishing filter and turn off automatic checking??  Sounds the same thing to me! :-/

Get onto ADSL  :y

The only good thing for ISDN as i can see, is the speed of connecting, but not relevant on ADSL, as always on.

We have a 'ringback' system that uses ISDN (used to use analogue lines, but was too slow!) lines to call the customers to tell them their car is waiting outside....i can hit the button in my car to give them a ring...1 or 2 secs later...i have a message sent back to me saying 'customer phoned'  :y Lot faster than the 30 or even more secs it used to take on analogue.
