BT Broadband gets worse
My BT Broadband service is getting even worse. I'm now down to 0.1 meg, 87.4 kpbs to be precise. It would be a laugh but for the fact that its making online activity unbearable.
BT Broadband - speed still slow
Despite some pretty heavy complaints my BT Broadband still isn't much use. Today it went down twice before 10:00 am. At one point it was still down after 15 minutes, so I gave up.
This afternoon I ran another speed test. Despite my complaints it's still running at 0.2 meg, 173 kpbs to be precise.
When I complained to the BT Broadband "Customer options" team in Doncaster I was told it was tough as I was contracted to them until April 2008. According to Richard - he refused to give his surname - BT up to 8 meg doesn't they have to deliver 8 meg. And in his opinion 0.2 meg mean't they had delivered their side of the deal. I shall be taken up a complaint with trading standards.

BT Total Broadband
What is the purpose of BT - British Telecom? In April I signed up for BT's new 8 megabyte service. What a farce. The speed of the line is shown above - 0.2 meg.
