Maybe they have just got back from a course in installation and maintainance of the new system.

[Noreen]

Is this likely to have any effect on my problems or is it dealing with a different one?

[Rik]

We hope that it's the cure BT have been looking for, Noreen, but given the smokescreen of words, we can only wait and see.

Entirely possible, Alf.

[Noreen]

Wow! Simon asked me to do a speed test and I've just got this.

[Rik]

Getting there. 

[Niall]

Whoever came up with under-dimensioned needs to be dragged into a street and kicked to death.

[Simon]

Should they clear their desk first, Niall? 

[zappaDPJ]

That's a bit harsh imo, can we not just scoop out their insides with a small spoon? 

[pup]

im sooooo glad that my exchange (camborne) isnt wbc enabled yet, i would have been tempted to swap from max.

[Rik]

Don't worry, Pup, we'd have soon talked sense into you.

[Noreen]

I've just asked my nephew who works for BT Openreach what "under-dimensioned" means. He said that he'd never heard of it and that they are instructed to not use jargon.

[Rik]

Clearly it's an instruction which hasn't reached the WBC team.

[bobleslie]

I think we all know what "under-dimensioned resourced" means.

[Rik]

 

I think it probably means they just worked out that bytes and bits aren't the same thing. 

[bobleslie]

 

Simples!

Here's another view of all things BT WBC.

[Rik]

I think IDNet might identify closely with the feeling expressed...

[bobleslie]

BTW I think the 'upgrade' has much more to do with this than sorting out our problems.  

The Any Questions? section in the above link is hilarious. 

[Rik]

Cynical, Bob?

[Glenn]

Can I have the Mercedes?

[Rik]

You mean the Spanish dancer? 

[bobleslie]

Cynical, Bob?

Not exactly, Rik. The new service is aimed particularly at BT Total Broadband users, so who do you guess will be soaking up all the new bandwidth?

Is it a coincidence that a national advertising campaign for the 'faster' service starts on Monday?

[Rik]

OTOH, that's BT Retail who, in theory, stand in exactly the same relationship as IDNet when it comes to BT Wholesale.

I used the checker and guess what according to them I can enjoy up to the maximim speeds if I sign up........where do I sign
