Phone Saga – Again

Well on one hand that didn’t take and hour, on the other it still isn’t sorted but at least I have now been told the truth, that BT probably wont be able to fix it before Christmas.

However a quick call to Virgin Media, the previous supplier, meant I was talking to Dave who was very helpful and with his assistance a temporary if not ideal solution has been found.  By tomorrow morning the Rectory phone number will be able to be answered again, no thanks to BT who are the ones that have messed it all up.

Phone Saga

It was a simple task, everyone told me it was, I had actually resigned myself to the nuisance of getting a new phone number, but the Vestry, friends, my old phone provider and BT, all said there would be no problems in keeping the same number.  Yes BT actually used those words – No problems!

Three weeks later BT have still not sorted it out and the Rectory number is still lost somewhere.  Of course BT never contact me to tell me what is going on, I have to always get myself a cup of coffee and find a time of the day when I know I will not need to rush and do something for at least the next hour, and then start the journey of ringing them, but not today, no today I don’t even have any coffee - I don’t have any water the supply has been interrupted while they work on the mains - today I am going to try a different tact. 

Wish me luck!
