Quite right, Jim.

Exchange congestion seems to be a problem BT won't invest in. They barely clear the congestion on each upgrade, and very quickly, exchanges clog again. No-one seems to have thought about putting in enough capacity to allow for further growth.

Its Holy Gordie for me.

Rik · Jan 16, 2009, 10:56:43

Let's be honest, there's so much to choose from. Wild mountainside is another favourite, plus Winter it is past...

The best laid schemes o' mice and BT gang aft agley,
And leave us nought but grief and pain, for promised joy!

He's just as relevant today, isn't he.

davej99 · Jan 16, 2009, 11:26:25

Rik, if you have a copy to hand, read The Lovely Lass of Inverness, concerning Cumberland and think Gaza.

Last post here. Guilty of going way off topic. Anyway need to go to hospital and get treatment at the burns unit.

Rik · Jan 16, 2009, 11:32:11

Sorry to hear that, Dave. Perth?

davej99 · Jan 16, 2009, 11:43:28

Don't worry, Rik. It's not life threatening. I keep slipping into 250 year old Scots verse and need to get treatment.

Rik · Jan 16, 2009, 11:44:17

Yeah, bit slow there wasn't I.

davej99 · Jan 16, 2009, 12:05:40

davej99 · Jan 16, 2009, 13:23:30

You want comedy, Jim? Then try BT for the best laugh, or even better, ofcom.

jimc · Jan 16, 2009, 13:31:20

What has happened in the past, Mark, is that when IDNet have been able to identify the problem, they have routed the traffic around the delay. That's why we always urge people to get in touch with support.
