Tiscali

[Kinky Monza]

Is anyone on here with Tiscali???

I'm havving so many problems with them, i've only been with them for 2 weeks, and already i've made in excess of 20 calls to there so called helpline!!!


And all they can say is it's in hand with BT, so i'm sat here, like a noob at nearly 2am on the fecking phone, talking to some fecking eejit with a foreign accent (i am NOT racist) bnut ffs it'd be easier if they knew what they were talking about!!! GRR :mad:

hey girl , sorry to here ya gettin messed bout , wots the prob with tiscali , exactly ??

i use bulldog and have been for last year and im pleased to say never a problem , very randomly i may lose conn' , but i just re-conn' and all sorted , the only thing im not happy bout is im on the 8meg deal but i only ever run at 3meg , which IMO is bollox , but ppl tell me its because the signal i receive from whatever im conn' to .. so i thinks i may as well pay less and get a 4meg conn' ..

Well my problem with Tiscali is that they cannot deliver what the agreed to, which is broadband to my house, every time i connect, i have to keep the house phone and mobile with me, cos when the connection goes it re connects quicker if i use the phone, which is just costing me even more fecking money, but the main thing is that i'm losing more money than i can afford to!!

Rant over lol

[superfu-kingnova]

well u were saying bout 'racism' - 'bulldog' (british) , tiscali may as well be 'mr patels corner shop' lmao . lol

and NO i am NOT racist before people start , but you get the drift !!

I think it is, but the're not the typical pushy sales reps, THEY'RE FECKING COWBOYS aarrrgggghhhh i hate tiscali

Been with UKO now for over a year and no problems at all.

Alex's connection on the farm is rubbish, keeps dropping out. As she lives out in the sticks though its probably her ADSL line thats crap. Keep telling her to hassle BT about it, as she (or rather her parents) are paying ?xx a month for a 24/7 512k broadband connection and they're really only getting a ~6 hour a day on and off connection at speed not much better than dial up lol

You should all feel for me...... I'm still on stoneage dial up.

There is a thread on MIG about this.
We have Tiscali at home & I think its a load of toss myself.

Others have issues with their customer support etc.

im on tiscali, its ok, but it disconnects me all the time which means i may as well be back on dial up as thats exactly what that did

Ditto!!! :mad: been disconnected 12 times today already!!!

we use tiscali at work, no problems. Had a bit of an issue with the primary and secondary DNS on the router, doesnt switch to secondary if primary goes down - or so it seems, but dunno if thats them or the router at present.

Nothing at all serious though, the above only causes momentary lapses.

[Kinky Monza]

But it's no good if i'm doing pOrn stuff, i can't afford for it to keep cutting off, i lose money :mad:

[wisewood]

fair point. cancel the contract as they can't provide the service and choose someone else.

[Kinky Monza]

I tried that, all i got was 'it is in hand with BT'!!!

If you want to cancel it, then cancel it. Unless you're tied into a minimum term contract (in which case you'd have to pay off the remaining months) they can't really do squat about it - if they refuse then write to them saying you are cancelling the contract and get your bank to stop the direct debit.
