    BT have now got back to me and confirmed that TalkTalk have agreed to release m old number to BT so they can change me back to it. But it will take 14 bloomin days ! Pain in the arris but at least my banging on to them has achieved some sort of positive result as we have gone from 'can't be done' to 'can be done but will take a while' ! Also I have suggested that I expect a fee adjustment once they get this sorted and they appear to be receptive to that.

    Apart from that, my broadband connection is still in the initial shakedown period and is a bit unpredictable - but , when its working, its flying . I appear to have gone from an upload speed of around 3 to around 35. I haven't got the direct to house connection so that increase is presumably due to the much faster connection from the BT box just down the road to the Exchange (which is around 4 miles way). My TCB has also tracked .

    Milk is more expensive in M. Hth

    Please can someone help me with what I switch off on iPhone 5 so it dosnt roam abroad please. Is it ??
    Mobile data (switched to White & not green)
    Data roaming (switched to white & not green)
    And then do all Aps need switching off or something.
    Thanks in advance.

    It is - or the 'normal' 4 pints are anyway - however they are 89p vs £1.00 so only lose about 1p:(. So, if you have a bit more than that that you want to lose, unfortunately milk isn't going to lose much at all. The 6 pints are even 'worse', from this perspective, as they are £1.30 vs £1.30 M and the M comp. is actually the only one that adds to the APG. A bit against my nature to be working out how to lose money:rotfl:.

    I'll have a think about what might lose a little though.

    last time i got a handful of sprouts it knocked about 20p OFF
    safer your way but you could play it close to the line :p
    i think parsnips do the same

    They do - or they should do, anyway, as M is nowadays really expensive on its loose parsnips. However, be careful with loose veg. as that's one area that I particularly don't trust the price collectors on - and items can come on and off with each price collection - so, you may be hoping to lose, but find something returns vs N/A.:(

    At one stage, the loose mushrooms were showing a quite bad comp. for M (from normal perspective) but the latest I had from the APG was N/A:(. The loose new potatoes have been much more expensive in M but they have been recently N/A too:(.

    :idea:SP Mandarin Pieces tin may be 35p vs 59p M!:D
    Assuming they continue to pick up the item in M. As long as it continues to compare against M's price of 59p, it should lose you about 18p.

    Thanks zippy :) xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    i done the same chang without the hassle.
    but a good thing with bt is everyone that has bt can share your hub. i walk along the street and i am constantly picking up free wifi. to do this you also have to allow peeps to use yours. it does not affect any allowances.
    app is called bt wi-fi
    it also picks up some wifi while abroad, but ive not had that yet.
