Isn't there some ****e if you ask Eircom to do a test and it passes, that they allocate that port for you and you can't go to another provider without going through some obscure process to get the port unallocated?

so shortly after this thread i managed to pass the test
so i ordered online with esatbt
rang them up to check a few days later and they lost my order.
ordered over the phone
rang once a week afterwards
everything fine
rang today
theyve lost my order
so they can put it thru again
nope
they need me to get my bank details and my eircom account number
so i ring eircom [grrrr] and the bank and get the info
ring back to order
i cant have bb
why not?
line failed

help me please.
its been a long time since all this bs started.
if anyone works in eircom or esat and can help me get this sorted I will do anything, anything at all to repay the debt.
