cant begin to get angrier
Zen, the hallowed turf of ADSL have just sodded me about to the n'th degree.
This morning I rang them to get a 100% answer on a broad band account that I have paid to have set up on a house I wanna buy. It failed to connect last night when I wqent trudging round to this blokes house, set up my shuttle in his hallway, sat on the floor and spent half an hour with a flashing light on the ADSL USB modem.....but hell, BT DO activate some stuff late in the day....up to midnight.
I said sorry for wasting the mans evening, the night he got back from his 2 week holiday, and this morning I rang Zen who ASSURED ME it had gone live now.
So I booked time with the Estate agent, who had to sit there, in silence for 30 minutes in a house it turned out he had NO CHANCE OF SELLING because, guess what....it still didnt work.
I SHOULD blame BT for this...as its their TPON network problem.....but I WONT blame them.
I will blame Zen. Why?
Cos I rang their technical line, who rang their BT contact (Like I asked them to do over a week ago, AND last night AND this morning) and I was on hold for 10 minutes and then got told
"BT cant do a copper overlay on that service, so unfortunately we cant make it work"
Now I KNOW its BT's line, BUT A ZEN EMPLOYEE FOUND OUT AFTER I HAD ASKED THEM TO FIND OUT, THAT THEY CANT GET ADSL AT THAT ADDRESS.
I am actually LIVID...... FRIKKIN FUMING because APART from the time wasted, and APART from the fact that the poor sods house has said SOLD on it for 8 days ,and he might have lost ALL MANNER of people to buy it, while I was sodded about, and APART from my missus not getting what she wanted after waiting all this time....
Zen let me down. Personally. If I had been clueless I'd have understood but I have ASKED them to check this THREE TIMES....and each time I've been told its gonna work....no reason I cant work. etc
Need to go fly IL2 and shoot stuff now.....
on my NTL line that NEVER GIVEES ME CAUSE FOR COMPLAINT!!!!!
/stalks off....with dark cloud over his head
