Change your poll to something comprehensible?

Perhaps the poll could be added back with an added option "I hate pointless polls" Tongue

@paulat, as your service is not currently provided over the BT network we need to carry out a process called Number Porting, this takes longer than a standard transfer, and involves some manual work.
We've sent the port request to our supplier, and should have a response soon, once we have that we can progress and give you an appointment date.

Hi there,
The order has now been placed and is currently set to complete on the 23rd March, though this is not yet approved so could change.
It should be approved by Monday, and then we'll be able to confirm the appointment date and time.

That's the date we've requested (as it was the earliest available), but as I said, we'll be able to confirm for you on Monday.
