I agree that this is very much a two edged sword. If I have struggled with Zen's invaluable help for two months and finally got a satisfactory resolution, I might be rather keen to get a line re-train.
However if there is, say, a high resistance fault on a line, maybe containing aluminium, the last thing anybody should want is to let BT O escape if the new MSR record shows a very poor performance.
If your ISP is effecient enough to keep a record of the line performance figures, there might be a mechansim to get BT O to re-visit a problem. However I wonder how many ISPs do actually keep those records and provide the data to the end user ? For those unaware I've included the data which can be made available on the 7 km line I've been helping with (and which has now been capped at 500 Kbps), although there is no guarantee that all data are included.
It will also be interesting to observe the retrain implications on lines that have been transferred to 21CN equipment.
Kind regards,
Walter
