Re: Not really a new topic - Peak Time slowdown still happening.

I tried to call you earlier, we've booked an engineer for tomorrow, 8am - 1pm. Is this OK for you?
We've updated your ticket too.

@chrispurvey: I did miss a call from you this morning, but my ticket hasn't been updated. Is the original appointment for this afternoon not going ahead?

Re: Not really a new topic - Peak Time slowdown still happening.

Question #68600921 - in PMs with Chris we arranged an engineer appointment for Tuesday 7/5/13 PM slot, however the information on the ticket still shows the morning slot. I know that it's a Bank Holiday so this may not be picked up by PN staff, but if it is can you please confirm the appointment slot is PM?

Defiantly? Damn those spill chuckers!
Engineer has called and will be here shortly. I've just run a couple of speed tests and all is looking good just now...
1. Best Effort Test: -provides background information.
Download  Speed
14.14 Mbps

0 Mbps 21 Mbps
Max Achievable Speed
Download speedachieved during the test was - 14.14 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 4 Mbps-21 Mbps.
IP Profile for your line is - 15.02 Mbps
2. Upstream Test: -provides background information.
Upload Speed
0.91 Mbps

0 Mbps 0.83 Mbps
Max Achievable Speed

Still slow last night, though...

I look forward to a lot of head scratching and furrowed brows...

Re: Not really a new topic - Peak Time slowdown still happening.

Engineers (plural) have just left. They have found a line fault but it isn't ADSL service affecting, and my latest speedtest confirms this.

They won't be able to repair the line fault until they get the pole checked for safety, to determine if it can be climbed, however there are no issues with our phone service either. In conversation with both engineers it was confirmed that they also have slow-downs on their own home broadband at night, and they are both on the same exchange as me. I've also spoken to several other people who are in the same boat.
I'll test again after 6pm just to confirm.

Re: Not really a new topic - Peak Time slowdown still happening.

I've raised this as an escalation with the examples we have and now we need to wait for their response.
