scottishlassI have been offline since Friday 6AM as we could dial into the remote port and the conenction went asynchruous.
Of course I phoned them, told them of the problem in a coherent manner and what did those dickheads DO?
Asked me if I had switched on my computer and my modem ... WTF???
For the whole Friday I tried to make them understand that I'm not some dumb blonde user but a computer geek who KNOWS WHAT SHE IS DOING AND I CAN EASILY DEFINE WHETHER OR NOT MY FUCKING COMPUTER IS ON OR OFF!!!
Jeesh .. they told me it was my problem and that my modem is probably toast, so I went out to get a new one on Saturday morning (€90) and got that on ... got that, switched that, got the t-shirt as it was the frelling same problem AGAIN. But now the technicians had their weekend off and couldn't help me anymore. RATBASTARDS!!!!
So now they have switched remote ports (it was their problem all along) and hopefully we will stay online now. Because of the Telecom incompetence I lost € 1200 - thank you very frelling much.... NOT!!!
On a nicer note,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
