Don't even think about going near Pipex!

I am still waiting three weeks after contacting Pipex for my Mac code
so that I can move to another service provider.

I have phoned them a number of times and each time they promise that
the code will be supplied the following day but nothing happens.

One day I got home to find not only was there no Mac code waiting for
me but Pipex had also decided to terminate my broadband internet
connection without any authorisation on my part.

Each time I phone them I have to wait (no matter what the time of day)
for over half an hour.

A terrible, terrible company. They are inefficient, it feels as if
there are only three people manning their customer service lines at any
time (and I have had to phone them for cock-ups on their part at all
hours of the day.); a big BIG thumbs down.

I've sent them a fax to get my MAC, and they sent one by email with in 24
hours...

please note.

Well bully for you Mr
Probably-Paid-By-Pipex-To-Write-How-Wonderful-They-Are.

I love the 'please note' section above laying down Company Policy.

Note to Da Boys Down On the Pipex Ranch: when getting one of your
skivvies to write in saying how wonderful they are, at least don't have
them quoting from the handbook.

That's because your billing date would have meant that they could not have
charged you for an additional month. You'll get it soon now.

And you have never wondered why the company has ignored you! They probably
have a right laugh each time you phone.

At least they were answering the phone, the ISP which musn't be
mentioned was so overloaded with calls last night all I got was
equipment engaged tones (as against line engaged tones which is
completely different)...
