TalkTalk Upgrade

Oh My

They upgraded my phone and broadband did TalkTalk

as a result...

I lost my broadband
I gained a continental style ring tone
and when I dial 1571 and hang up
it phones me with modem type garbage!!

then they tell me I have to wait another 48 hours before they can resolve
the issues.

Let buyer beware

For around 2 years all you hear is the constant problems with TalkTalk,
you didn't expect anything to chance, did you?

Complain to Ofom instead of moaning here.

It'll do more good. Companies who can't provide a working service shouldn't be
allowed to trade.

Big fucking deal! As if BT are better - and in any case most of the
problems arise from BT, as they continue to "manage" the line and the
boradband.

Well the broadband is managed in house by Talk Talk & seeing as the
telephone service is also supplied by their kit. That only leaves BT
looking after the copper connection, none of which appears to be
relevant to the OP.

My new car developed a fault. I took it back to the dealer but he said it
was BT's fault and there was nothing more anyone could do and I would just
have to put up with it.

You took your new car back to the dealer and he said it was a fault
known to Ford and that they should be held responsible.

and not getting anything done.
