And for all those people who knock Tiscali, the service is generally excellent, it's just when things go wrong and you have to speak to those numpties at the Indian call centre when you start getting a bit frustrated with them.

That is exactly the same at BT,and quite a few other isp's I would think.
You would think that isp's who use these off shore call centres would get the message now.....EVERYONE HATES THEM.  :angry:

I would agree, support from Tiscali isn't to a good standard

I think that's the polite way of putting it.

Yes, I could think of another phrase to explain them but I think I will keep it to myself! :-X

What really frustrates me with them is when you get an operator with a poor standard of English, or an accent so heavy that you are struggling to pick out the relevant words... I have been known to hang up on them and re-dial.  Having said that, when you get to the second tier of support, i.e. when they start ringing you back, then they are pretty good.

The CS issue alone is not enough to make me want to look elsewhere for my broadband, as the connection rarely drops out (only occasionally in the small hours when I'm in the land of nod), and the general throughput speed is generally satisfactory.

Same here, my Dad like Tiscali for value for money (and the free line rental and anytime calls!!) and I like it because like you it is a fairly reliable service :)

Mind you, when I was on Datastream there were always throughput issues at peak!

Yeh I have Anytime Calls to landlines for £19.99

I wonder what the prices will be for faster speeds.

If the ADSL2+ was introduced with TV I would get TV, if only my Exchange had it, I would save a fortune compared to Sky!
