We used to have a btinternet email address; I think we must have gone with them after Eclipse. For a while, we both had a Zen account and address but Harvey wanted IMAP and started a Googlemail account. ?I tried it for a year but ended up back with POP3 - is it 3? I¡¯m not good with numbers - didn¡¯t get Maths O-Level! ?:D

I was stalked. I had a renal infection. One of the secretaries came in & said:

My parochial tutor told the departmental tutor this.
He gave my notes on depression to the same secretary again.
Well, how do you defend a rapist?
You say the woman's a sl@g.
Discredit the complainant you discredit the complaint. If I failed my complaint would be descrited. It was absolute hell!
My exam papers were fixed
How I graduated Best of Year, God alone only knows!
It's happened many times before:
The University is Judge, jury & Executioneer.
It got so stinky they had to set up the Office of the Independent Adjudicator.
It's a fig leave to cover their corruption.

That¡¯s interesting, John! ?Plusnet is doing everything right at present, but it¡¯s taking days to get a Broadband connection. It should be up next Tue.?

Between the 2 of us Chris, I wasn't very impressed with Zen!
They told me the direct debit I set up hadn't gone through, but it was definitely debited from my account
Then they couldn't read the electronic transaction I emailed them! For an IT company no less! Had to print it & send it by snail mail
It took me a year to get a refund!
Now with BT

I¡¯ve gone with Plusnet, Susan. ?Zen started off well enough, but told me that the previous ISP (plusnet) had put a Cease Order on the line so they could not start on the takeover straight away. ?No problem, I thought, I¡¯ll wait the extra few days. ?But when I rang them last Friday, 5 days after the end of the Cease Order, they told me that they had cancelled my order for service ¨C the previous owner of the house had delayed their takeup of service at their new house so Plusnet had delayed stopping service at this house. ?That wasn¡¯t Zen¡¯s fault, but they had cancelled my order without telling me, so I reckoned that their much-vaunted service had failed me.

I¡¯ll look at them again in a year¡¯s time.

We certainly have been very satisfied with them. They aren¡¯t the cheapest but we went with them while still running our limited company, swapping from what was then a very local company, Eclipse, and they don¡¯t really do strictly domestic. You do hear some horror stories about a few of the others.

Yes, Susan, partly on the basis of your implied recommendation from a year or two ago :-)

I¡¯ll drop him a line, John. ?But we¡¯re in the middle of a move, from Cambs to Dorset, so it will have to wait until Zen is set up at our next home.
