Poor Roy. He's like a Drug Addict Going Through Withdrawal !!!! LMFAO!!

Here is the latest in his quest to get his high speed Internet working.

Some choice comments:

"Hi,

I did not manage to read your mail before I had sent my previous
message; however, for personal reasons* I have not carried a mobile
since a decade ago (I stopped in 2003) and my landline is supposed to
work now. "

I hate to tell Roy but a decade is 10 years...
You'd think a PHD would know that.

"A lot of the trouble is rooted in the fact that the wrong flat was
connected (and mine disconnected), which in turn prevented me from
making calls to BT from home, not just receiving any; had I had a mobile
phone, I doubt much would be improved as I would still be standing here
talking to BT for many hours, in addition to paying mobile charges/air
time for hours of unfruitful phonecalls. Eventually my friends had to
foot this bill. "


Looks like Roy is *STILL* *SPONGING* off of his friends.
If he were an honest, stand up person, he would reimburse them for their
costs. But no, with Roy it's take, take, take


"This does not even begin to account for the 20 hours I spent at home on
Tuesday and Friday waiting for a delivery which didn¢t come (maybe they
tried to phone my landline, which clearly was not connected, but they
were advised/instructed to use the intercom given the nature of this
apartment block. I was almost literally sitting next to the intercom
from 7 to 6)."

Must have drove Roy freaking nuts sitting at home not being able to
SPAM.

Here comes "The Evil Monopoly" rant.

"I wish to add that I blame neither you nor Warren. I understand that
the chain of liability in a corporation as large as BT makes people
emotionally susceptible/exposed to people whom they did not wish to
disappoint or whose career to harm; I too found myself in such
situations in the past. As my phonecalls made to about 20 people in BT
so far (some not logged/identified, so you can¢t map them all) may show,
I kept polite at all times; politeness just isn¢t the thing to get
progress and get things done, as my landlord insisted when he picked the
phone and spoke more assertively, demanding that the order gets
canceled."


...And here comes Roy bragging about himself, as usual:

"Over the years I¢ve been preaching against monopoly and the abuse it
enables a monopolist to get away with. BT was an expensive lesson for me
and not a lesson I ever wished to go through. I went with BT thinking it
would be the fastest way to get reconnected and write again to an
audience of millions. I¢ve been planning my ISP switchover since late
February and thought I had it planned to ensure my work is not
interrupted; never did I imagine that even the phone line would not
work. Well, it worked at first, but then BT broke it and who knows
what¢s left ahead now that someone else used it and I might be billed
for calls I never made. It looks like it¢s only the beginning."


An expensive lesson for Roy?????

Sounds more like it was an expensive lesson for Roy's friends!!


Here is Roy asking to be compensated.
Hopefully he sends that compensation directly to his friends who are
footing the bill for this.

""UPDATE: you¢ve just phoned me, so I will stop typing and send it as
is. I do expect compensation for what I have had to go through and am
still going through.""



I can tell you exactly what is going on with Roy.
BT screwed up, no doubt about it.

Then Roy called them and his monotone slightly condescending voice
turned them off.

They clicked a box on their call center screen that puts Roy in the nut
case bin and he has been at the bottom of the pile ever since.

That's what is happening...

I'm laughing my ass off reading this.
Roy in a corner and BT poking him with sticks.

It doesn't get any more satisfying than that!
