| 81773 | 2002-09-21 12:36:00 | A good frend of mine used to ring up and ask why the internet didn't work i'd ask if it was plugged in and everything, and then point out she would have to get of the phone to try the computer. There was total confusment over that. She was with i4free, and couldn't get her head around why a "free" connection needed the phone line... She's got that bit sorted now, and a lot more, but yeah they're out there! |

| 81774 | 2002-09-21 22:57:00 | Thanks Babe, had a quick look while waiting for the washing to finish and have bookmarked the page for getting my giggles later. :-) I like this one: I burned a CD with some multimedia stuff on it for a friend of a friend. He couldn't get them working, because, it turned out, he had a 486 with 8 megs of RAM. Him: "How come they don't work?" Me: "You need a new motherboard, CPU, case, power supply, lots more RAM, and maybe a new video card." Him: "Can you download them for me?" |

| 81775 | 2002-09-21 23:51:00 | Great site! I used to work on the helpdesk of an ISP, and here's a little gem I saved which have to share. This was one unhappy chappy, but it got us rolling on the floor! From:************@[ISP] Sent: Friday, February 09, 2001 11:51 AM To: ******@[ISP] Subject: YOU SUCK - arrrgggggfghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot believe how much YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK!!!!! I feel better now, nearly - The service that [ISP] [ ] provide is absolutely appalling - I have an un-paid account that we are refusing to pay because of a crediting issue with [ISP] over our web hosting - which incidently took 2 to 3 weeks to set up, for some un-known reason, mainly because none of the staff seemed to have a clue as to how to transfer our web-site from our old hosts over to [ISP], it was the most un-smooth tre=ansaction I have ever known, possibly known to man. After thinking this was completed, I find out two weeks ago that our internet trafiic to the web-site is still being directed to our old hosts server!!!!! Over two months AFTER the account was supposidly set up!!!!!!! I have since tried to sort out a credit for our account, have spent up to a week trying to get some one to help me on the phone, NO ONE COULD, or else I ended up on hold for an intolerable amount of time, and had to hang up after prior arrangements took president over my time left hanging on the phone listening to the ****ING CORS!!!! There is only so much innoffensive music any one can take before it becomes offensive, my limit is approximately an hour and a half, I'm not sure if it's just the music, or if partly because my ear is burning off. I then abondened the idea of the phone, after talking to a woman yesterday who had just strarted, it was her secound day, she said the staff had been cut by two thirds in her office, which as you can understand, makes a ****-load of sense to me, given that [ISP]'s policy is obviously make people wait as long as possible, while you screw things up as much as possible in the hope that a - they commit suicide b - they die of lack of nutrition, whilst on hold c - they die from radiation poisoning (cell phone user) d - they die of old age e - they just give up I figure [ISP] is a humain company, caring for the community, and has budgetied heavily on the d option, as the social wait of suicide and death might be a little hard to bear for the CEO's. Back the EPIC tail of dispair - Since giving up the phone option I have tried to e-mail through the [ISP] site the lovely people at [ISP] help who deal with ac**** enquirys, I spent over 15 minutes typing out the scenario and went to send the e-mail, [webmail] I had of course been logged of the [ISP] site for lack of activity due to taking to long with my enquiry!!! AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I went back to log on, copied the text from my original e-mail onto my new fresh re-vitalised log on e-mail enquiry page and hit send - due to a server fault your message can not be sent at this time - please try again later. THIS IS LATER, I AM TRYING AND ALL I CAN MANNAGE TO SAY IS YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK YOU SUCK The only way you can possibly make me feel better is by buying me a house by the beach - If I kill some one today I'm sueing [ISP] for my fragile state of mind, and intolerance to other people - |
