    QoC you didn't happen to be upgraded to a superhub did you?
    We've had nothing but problems since they installed a superhub here and upgraded us to 30mb from 10mb
    :mad:

    Yes, that's exactly what I've been landed with :mad:

    My wifi signal upstairs is appalling :mad:

    10mb was the best I could get on the thousand and one speed tests I had to do while I was on the phone to them

    She even gave it some crappy nonsense about it taking 24 hours to upgrade it :eek::mad:

    Good evening - bit late on tonight, lots of RL stuff being done (and also attempting to collect Adpoints which this thread takes me away from:rotfl::D). Starting off with an okay womble - and the benefits of the 10% becoming clear here. This was the second of two positive returns - but the first was 44p:( - not much 10% added to that as total comparable spend was low. Yet this much longer receipt, unusually perhaps, has a better return...

    (Bold prices are mbuys, rather than necessarily good savings.) As the Morries price expert, I think I should have got more than £2.24. The Nectarine punnet returning N/A - probably should be £1.00 for M (as opposed to 2 for £1.50 last week - only one bought anyway). Note the Savoy Cabbage is comparing correctly:). But the two different bacons (which are both 300g) should most likely be £2.00 each in M (not picking up 2 for £4.00 mbuy in M:( which I think they are part of).

    Walker's Deep Ridged Ready Salted - N/A:think::question:
    Sunny D California should probably have given another 40p (I noticed Sunny D Florida 1L on at £1.00 in M and they normally do have the California too, which seems likely to be same price.)

    CBY Breaded Chicken Breast Fillets 400g - :question:N/A.

    And Indian Takeaway Chicken Korma!!?:question: (I don't know - without looking, it could be outside of the weight limit.) I'm pretty sure M do have the Robert's bread too although, it seems, it always returns N/A.

    Before I read back another moan about mySuperlist.

    I came home to an email update from them re new items for 50% cashback so I click on the link and :T there are 24 items, all the fun items like carling zest and blossom hill :T

    So I go to the MSL app to make a list and go to browse and nothing there - just the 14 left over items that were left yesterday :mad:

    Is it the same for everyone ?

    OMG you have my sympathies!!
    I'm trying to remember how they got mine to improve as my wifi signal outside he lounge was non existant!
    The signals pretty good now but I think it took multiple calls for them to get it to stabilise, I also vaguely remember something about 24 hours :(
    Luckily they let us keep the old router so if nothing got better they were gonna let us wire that one back up.
    Hope you get it sorted :)
