    Some other Telecom company is framing Toucan.Because Toucan has just recieved 5 stars from Uswitch.com so it doesnt need to harass people to get more customer.All this is entirely false and bogus

    Do you work for Toucan by any chance ;)

    Looks like I'll be in good company

    Do you have any interest in any other subjects here? I'm more inclined to see lies elsewhere

    If you work for BT why are you recommending your customers to switch to Toucan? Can we make recommendations to BT about you?

    I am quite happy with my current set up with TalkTalk and 18866 thank you BUT I would be interested to know what department of BT you work in that you call them YOUR customers?

    Coupled to this, I did not think that generally BT employees had access to the web anyway from their workplace systems as a rule, so how did you get onto this site ? Are you maybe a mole or a toucan?
    My website has lots of info and photos from various Greek and Canary Islands esp. about walking. My profile has the site address cos not allowed to put it here.

    The abuse from some Toucan sales people is very serious indeed and has resulted in them phoning with foul language F word etc., during day time when recipients really get angry at their non-stop calls ; everyone must report any malpractice so someone eventually can pull a plug on what must be a serious abuse of telesales

    Try keeping a whistle by the phone - when you get harrassing calls blow it loudly down the phone!
