@NickMortel @Fasthosts Thanks Tech Team not replying either

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@Fasthosts I've been requesting assistance via email over the past few days to [email protected] but they are not answering me. This email address has worked for me in the past. Is there any reason why you're ignoring me?

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@T0MMYC_ @FHTechTeam Same here, support no longer answering me. Maybe I shouldn't have moved to Fasthost?

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@FHTechTeam Any reason why [email protected] are ignoring me? I can send any emails from my new VPS2 server, I think I need ports opening at the backend but can't get anyone to respond to me.

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@VodafoneUK Same happened to me, however if you contest strongly enough they should rectify that. They did for me. I've now switched to #toob 1 Gbps up and down for £25 per month.

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

Just been switched to fibre at the invitation of @VodafoneUK and put onto their "Migration Only Full Fibre 100" package. I now find my contract ends date has been extended by 2 years, and they are asking for the return of my backup dongle despite being on a Pro package. #SCAM

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@VodafoneUK As an ex employee I'm now at the end of my Tether. Since I migrated to full fibre FTTP my fixed line voicemail no longer works i.e. I can't access my voicemail. I contacted TOBi many times and spoken to a live agent who assured me he would raise a ticket. Nothing yet.

@SkyBroadbandd
I'm currently moving my broadband and landline to Sky. When I received the order confirmation Sky say I can't have my old number and I'll be given a new one. My current provider says they can and will transfer my old landline number so why is Sky refusing to port?

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@litfibre I don't particularly want another fibre run into my home.

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@litfibre I currently have a Vodafone FTTP connection and I am considering switching to @litfibre. Lit tell me they have to run a new fibre into my home as Vodafone own my present connection. This can't be right can it? I thought that OpenReach owned the fibre ?

@OctopusEnergy You've been saying that for months, still no engineer?

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@OctopusEnergy What does a customer have to do to get their Smart Meter fixed. They haven't worked for months now. Reported several times, nothing happens. Time to find a new energy supplier I think.

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@SmartEnergyGB Since my Smart Meters were installed by #OctopusEnergy they failed after 3 days and they have not been working for months. Repeatedly reported to #OctopusEnergy no engineer visit to date. Time to find another energy supplier I think.

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@allbeautysocial Very disappointed, order placed Dec 9th still not arrived. No reply to email sent to customer support. Twitter link in order confirmation email, broken. No good to me if it doesn't arrive by Christmas. Buyer beware

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@QRZnow There's an Android app that gives you VFO knob functionally.

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@bbcworldservice Welcome back BBC World Service on proper radio.

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@OctopusEnergy I'm an ex Avro customer hand have been migrated to OctopusEnergy. I have a direct debit with Avro which I was told not to delete as it would be moved to OctopusEnergy. I'm still paying Avro. Should I now cancel my Direct Debit with them?

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@G4ELI Love the speakers, what are they?

[David Toombs @g8fxm]

@DrOrthogonal FB, what grease do you use.
