496172 2006-11-03 07:05:00 I rung Telecom tonight and got:groan: :groan: put throught to xtra as i was querying my broadband speed.

The guy i spoke to told me that next week telecom are putting in a new system designed by telecom engineers to make your broadband speed more consistent instead of just random as you find out when you do speed tests.

But i wonder how efficient this will be and will it really work i DUNNO.

496178 2006-11-03 12:26:00 You guys don't truly expect a silk purse out of a sows [gattungs]ear do you now !
I mean that's just not realistic when there is no competition [as yet] lets face it it doesn't make sence to shareholders to give anything away which will deplete there greedy interests until one day it will eventually come and it will be suicide to remain a shareholder I reckon !

I don't like the tactics and management of Telecom either but insults of that nature are inappropiate

I agree, plus exchanges that telcome has not stuff up / don’t play up with the rest of NZ has issues ;)
