Ordering your MAC code

hi guys
                  just ordered my mac code from customer services (Kevin) who said it can take up to 4 days to come through as they have to get it from bt.
                  is this usuall  as i thought they could just give it to you straight away
                                  cheers binzy

Re: ORDERING YOUR MAC CODE

Hi,
We're obliged to generate your MAC within 5 working days.
You will receive it within that timeframe.

They are generated on BT's systems, but I know they are generated or where the delay comes from.

Re:Ordering your MAC code

They're generated separately to the telephone conversation as has been alluded to by other people in this thread.
