Well, finally had the second technician (hardly 'engineer'!) to cable up my new hub 4 to my Dect 4 base station downstairs where it used to be before it was VOIPed. He came around 4 pm., a second and senior chat replaced him; 5 min's later he was back, so 2 of them on the job. Cock-up with new exterior cable or connection so it didn't work. Finally, with my stomach thinking my throat had been cut (1 hour after dinner time) they sussed it and
all was working.
All this messing about to get rid of copper cables, only to reconnect everything with......copper cables ! 3 hours of my life achieving bugger all and having yet again, courtesy of VM, half another brick face disappear when the hammer drill burst out. I was watching the process, advising etc., but to no avail.
Not a happy VM bunny; shall clear the mess tomorrow (but I did offer just to accelerate their departure). 2 visits, 3 blokes, simply to get me back to where I was in phone placement.
