Post subject:  Independent - trouble with my phone line

I'm currently experiencing some difficulties with my land line, so if you need to contact me at all please either email me at indi8films@aol.com or my mobile on 07906539453. I'll let everyone know once the land line has been sorted.

Well I've managed to contact my line provider Talk Talk and they have found a difinite fault on my line, it should be fixed within 72 hours so hopefully by Wed/Thu it should be up and running again, as a temporary fix all my calls are being diverted to my mobile, so anyone who wants to contact me can now use my landline number or my mobile number I listed above.

Another phone call later and I've got a date for the BT Engineers coming in, it's next Tuesday between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., so at least it should be fixed after that (I'm crossing my fingers here!).

Well finally my phone line has been repaired, so at least you mcan call me direct, but there's still a fault somewhere as my broadband speed is awful, we've now got a Talk Talk engineer coming out on Saturday.

Just had a nice Talk Talk lady engineer come to look at my internet (or lack of it!), it seems there is still a fault on my main line coming into the property, so now it's back to BT, oh joy!

My speed (what you can call it!) is ranging from 0.4 down to as low as 0.1 mbps, a year ago I was getting nearly 3 mbps, so no catch up tv for me for a while, as it needs a minimum of 2 mbps. At least the phone is working, and I can get emails (for now!), but it's a bloody nuisance all around.

Finally my Broadband woes are over (I'm crossing my fingers typing this!), I had a brilliant BT Open Reach broadband engineer who came this morning and sorted every thing out, I've gone from 0.4 - 0.8 mbps to around 3.4 mbps, and what a difference it is already. He said to me if you can get a deal to go to fibre, go for it, as the speeds and reliability are much better. Talk Talk are phoning me sometime tomorrow, so I'll see what they say, but at least 3.4 mbps is OK for now.

I've just done a deal with my broadband provider Talk Talk, I'm getting fibre with an estimated 40 mbps speed, all UK calls included (plus a new high speed router), and it works out £4 a month more, so long gone are the days of programs buffering, it should all be up and running by June 22nd, I can't wait, now to watch some of the world cup in 4K via the BBC iplayer, yea!
