Don't forget our Glossary!

I have a recollection of being told, way back when FTTC was being rolled out as a new system nation-wide, that the DSLAMs in the fibre cabinets were specified as being part of the BT Operate domain.

Wasn't that before Openreach were spun-off as their own company though?

Sorry, I'm not sure what it is that you are trying to query.  :-\

Operate ("BT Operate") exists and has nothing to do with Openreach.

Its just constantly confusing the line between what Openreach own and what BT own.

I find the best way is to not worry about it, Alex ..... it's waaaay above any of us on here and not worth the time and effort trying to pin it down .... unless you're obsessed with it.

 ;) ;D

The LLUMS case has been closed with no changes seen ( card  or speed). Zen say we have to start a new fault. I think that’s probably a waste of time and I will mange with the 800k upload.

Will ZEN log it as a repeat fault and escalate to care level 4?

I have no idea ! Zen have been quite disappointing, not the Zen I recall from a few years ago. Their emails are quite confused and not really moving the issue forwards. I have a new anointment (number 6) on Wednesday

Kinda silly to say "whats the point" to contact their MP though.

I get some MPs are bad, but I know mine is VERY proactive and shes chased a lot of issues I've had, though mostly regarding the council.  Either way, saying "whats the point" is foolish, what have you got to lose?

The MP that covers my work address is excellent, but my local MP covering our home is just about useless. The former really acts for his constituency the latter just expects his constituency to give him a job. Still not a route I favour

Zen have now said 800k is the max upload I can achieve ( dsl checker 1.9-3.1) options are to revert to ADSL2, accept this speed or cancel with no cost.

No idea what to do  :(

Lengthy email from Zen explaining why there was no further options. However it might be amusing for others to read this part of the email. Zen's technical knowledge might now be questionable !

"I understand that when Openreach attended the property on the 16th July 2021, they advised that there was a fault and that possibly changing the line card could rectify the issue. The engineer advised on their notes that they had rectified the issue by completing a lift and shift; meaning that they have replaced or moved the socket within the property".  :lol:

I would raise a formal complaint with Zen saying they have no idea what they are talking about and have not progressed the fault investigation to a satisfactory resolution, the LLUMS case was not completed or just ignored. Overall it gives a very poor impression of Zen support. Have you considered emailing the Openreach CEO (email address has been posted on various forums) giving a brief description of the problem. This has been known to get results when other routes have got nowhere.
