    i hope i don't have to spend most of tomorrow with the idiots at talkindiatalk:confused: only to get put through to someone in the uk who sorts it out in a few minutes

    Whenever you have a company with both Indian and British call centres, call during office hours - you're much more likely to get hold of someone who understands you.

    That's exceedingly shiite. First a confession - I'm not with talk talk.

    :rotfl: :T :beer: :j :dance:

    Try browsing talk-talk's own web pages, and see how fast they are for you.

    get put on hold, put through to another pudding, explain your problem,
    get put on hold get put through to another pudding explain your problem,

    all the while your asking them to put you through to a techie or "cancelations":money:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
