Pyrotequila

I hate to ask, but has anyone heard of https://onestream.co.uk/ ? They have utterly awful reviews online, but typically speaking unless the service is amazing, it's usually the people with issues that will write scathing reviews. Nobody ever wrote a review that said "it was ok 99% of the time, and occasionally dropped" 😂 But I mean, unless you go for full fibre all the companies use the same cabling, right? We recently had Hyperoptic come into our block of flats and install their stuff, so that's an option. I'd only been with FTTC, been with Sky, Plusnet and now Vodafone, all roughly the same speed.

The second message appears to be something to do with wireless signal strength. The user guide is here, if you want to tinker yourself; https://www.pyronix.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/10/downloads/389.pdf

It's worst than you think, further in it says;

Not sure which "No right turn" you're referring to? The junction on Prince of Wales road near to the parkway where the Lidl is has a red light camera, but at that junction you're allowed to turn right.

Literally only just seen the first gritter of the day... its 10:10pm

My Nightmare Neighbour Next Door. My God some of these people need to just get a grip! One guy had complaints because when he started his van in the morning, because of how his driveway was positioned, his lights shone into his neighbours window...cue police complaints and a court case. Did nobody ever think maybe he could just park his van in his driveway the opposite way around?

Condolences to the family in this hard time

You can, but it has to be "approved by Openreach", not sure what that means to be honest. https://support.vodafone.co.uk/Broadband-home-phone/Set-up-getting-started/1464003752/Can-I-use-my-own-router-with-Vodafone-broadband.htm

Yes and no, it varies depending on the age bracket; https://www.gov.uk/national-minimum-wage-rates 25 and over 21 to 24 18 to 20 Under 18 Apprentice April 2020 (current rate) £8.72 £8.20 £6.45 £4.55 £4.15

We're on Vodafone too, ours went down yesterday at about 1:15pm and was down for about 3 hours. Managed to get on the live chat, but they were just reading off a script, no real help. Seriously considering getting a new router, but I think it was an Internet issue rather than a router issue.

When you say she cannot use the internet, do you mean that she doesn't know how to, or that she doesn't have access? If she doesn't have access, I'm pretty sure the libraries are staying open during lockdown for exactly that reason; to help people who don't have access at home.

The lockdown document with the information about what has to shut can be found here; https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/949536/NationalLockdownGuidance.pdf I don't think it's the latest one as it mentions alcohol being allowed for takeaway, whereas I've seen it mentioned elsewhere that this is not allowed this time around.

Looking online at the deaths by country, who do China think they're fooling by reporting around 4700 deaths from Covid?

They should just make it subscription based like Sky or Virgin, make it so that you need equipment to decrypt the signal or you can't watch. Simple. Apart from the news, I can't remember the last time we watched a single thing on the BBC.

Give them a call and explain the situation. I got overdue bill notices from Octopus when my dad passed in the middle of 2020, called them up, explained it all to them and they were fantastic. Basically said "pay when you can"
