The only information from ehotspot was

a) your service will not be available because of aramisca

and

b) we are coming for our box.

My reply was that they could have their box when they have reinbursed me with;

the installation costs £99

the last three months direct debits of a useless service.

The van did turn up. The engeneers did see me and my son.

They asked " er do you know where Mrs Smith lives", there was a Mrs Smith on satalite;-)

They moved off and never came back.

I have a nice box that flashes on my outside wall. I tell every one that it's a specialised burglar alarm.

After singing the praises of ehotspot for nearley two years, the next bit is unprinable.

This happene las year and we went over to ADSL. What a difference:-))

Could it be that ISP’s are making this out to be a bigger problem than it actually is? We’re a small country with an internet penetration of less than 60%, for every Youtuber there’s someone who only uses the internet to check their emails, more people surf on their mobile handsets than a few years ago. Surely things should even themselves up.
