    I seem to only be able to get a 21.6 kbps connection both last night and today,rang the status line and there's no problems.
    Just wondered what others are getting?


    Seems to have been a modem problem, probably zapped by the storms through the phone line, as i had all sorts of trouble trying to connect to other isp's.
    Anyway,tried a spare usb modem and got an instant 46.6kbps connection on fast4.

    I believe there must have been a problem at Fast 4 as well, because my speeds are back up to 53,333bps and have been for a few days now.
    There is some more interesting stuff about Fast 4 account cancellation on a new thread started by Eliza 252. See : http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=66010

    No problems at all lately! Even during the evenings have been able to log on OK. Maybe the dial-up users are all migrating to BB !!!

    I have so many problems in this last week, I just cant get on. I am going to cancel today and sign up with another!

    Well, so did I but almost eversince I signed up :confused::confused::confused: weeks ago and so wrote to cancel. Beware - I paid with debit card and FAST4 ignored my letter and took 2 more payments from me. Had to cancel card to get them to stop. Nothing but trouble with Fast 4 and email - what email - never managed to get into them........... Fast4 brought "stuff" with it and it has just cost £30 to get rid of it. So I am very disillusioned and returned to Wanadoo. Nice people there.

    Pingy

    Why should we switch when we have no problems getting connected first time every time for only £6-99 a month unlimited.

    Broadband may load the pages faster but YOU can`t read them any faster.
    Maybe you just look at pictures.

    We thought you had retired Pingy!! 1. Can't get NTL and anyway from what I've read on here they are C**P, so wouldn't consider them. 2, There are other deals for £10 per month, but do not wish to tie up for 1 year. Quite happy at present, and the more you encourage to go to BB the better the service from FAST 4 becomes. And I am still only paying £5 per month !!!

    pages load faster so while you still waiting for them to load i have already read them

    anyway everything is faster and sound/picture/video quality is brilliant but that is too hard for you to understand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    carry on surfing(i mean waiting)
