    my post of last thursday refers.......

    Eircom's area manager have been in contact and he has told me point blank that he won't be able to do anything for me as regards upgrading my line. He was quite blunt about it too!!!!!!!

    he told me he can't do anything until the exchange is upgraded. I also emailed Phil Nolan and he hasn't come back to me......

    can you give some advice of what to do next!!!!!!! please !!!!!

    yes, something along that line. Is this the typical excuse they use?

    he said teh exchange has to be upgraded and they have not planned a date for this yet.

    If the exchange isn't upgraded then there's really feck all you can do about it until it's upgraded. They're not going to reschedule a very expensive upgrade to please one person.



    ... to put it bluntly :/

    It is quite common to find that the ISDN capacity of a rural exchange is limited.

    Keep at phil so, strees the importance to you / work / employer yadda yadda yadsa . Alternatively consider wireless instead such as www.westnet.ie seeing as eircom refuse to provide you with an adequate wired service

    be de fuk the web server is down (first time I saw that )

    they will advise you of your options depending on where you live in mayo so do contact them and hassle the bejaysus out of Phil anyway. I do not have the micro details but mayo is a hotbed of wireless because eircom are so totally useless .
