Re: Speed much lower than estmated speed..

Thanks Adam.. No worries... Please check PM...
Had the engineer visit. He could get into that office but not to a room where the cables and box is situated. He tried to get the keys and it was available only till 4 pm. As it was already 3 pm by then he couldnt practically get the key and sort things before 4 and return the keys.
Hmm..Life is so complicated... I wish the line came directly to the house..
I would have opted for an AM slot if given the choice..
I would be extremely grateful if the nice reps here arrange an AM slot for me so that there is enough time for the engineer with this complicated issue of keys and all.

This is like a Hitchcock thriller. How mant bodies will he find in the locked room? Watch this space. Crazy

Re: Speed much lower than estmated speed..

Seems a bit weird that your phone line and internet access seem to be routed through (and therefore reliant upon) someone else's property!
The bodies in the locked room will probably turn out to be dead mice that have gnawed through your cable.

I can ask them to get in touch with you, I assumed from you saying that any AM slot would be OK?

@ Adam... AM is ideal as they can get the access for sure...
For me Wednesday and Friday AM is fine.

Re: Speed much lower than estmated speed..

Phoned PN customer care to double check tomorrows engineer appointment has been booked or not.
They said there is some problem in booking thru the automated system and hence will try to book manually.
I also mentioned about the no dial tone fault which started after the engineer fiddled with the master socket yesterday... However the broadband is working as good as before i.e around 12-14 Mbps...
The guy on the phone did some tests and felt there is fault at the exchange end.
He has raised it as a fault and ask for the engineer to look at that as well..
I hope this doesnt confuse the engineer while they continue with tracing the fault re: low broadband speed...

Re: Speed much lower than estmated speed..

Sorry to hear about the additional issue! The no dial tone issue has been logged as a phone fault rather than a broadband fault so there should be no conflicts or confusion between the two.

I've just checked with Dan and he's talking to our suppliers right now about this. I'm about to leave but Dan should be in touch with you soon.

Thanks, glad to see Dan confirmed an appointment for this morning. I'll do my best to have a look in the afternoon and see what the outcome was.
