Hi, We have been having the same problems. We are in the middle of the country and FT and wanadoo insisted we could take the high debit ADSL. At last after two months they have aknowledged that it goes to the road at the end of the drive ok but into our house "we are just 50 metres too far!" any way they have reduced the debit which seems to be better (still ADSL) and reimbursed a months rental.All of this after 7 engineers all who insisted it was the computer and the 8th bothered to test the line from the exchange to see where the problem was.

Hello, I am sorry for my late response. There's been mix up with the cheque issued for these trip Anyway , our sponsors were able to make out a cheque in your name for the bill of our stay in your home but the mix up is that he also issued on the same cheque the travelling expenses which is to be paid to the travelling agent before our depature. The whole money issued out is 5,000 Euro All effort to contact him and rectify the mix up is still not through ,now what I think is that if you are willing to help us on this I could send the whole  5,000 Euro since the cheque is made out in your name and can only be cleared into your account.  I would give you details on how to remit the balance to the travelling agent .Also , due to the time in sending the cheque and making sure the cheque clears into your account before remitting any balnce I suggest we prospone our arrival date forward , so let know the best date you can give us but I would prefer the second week of december . lastly, I am aware of taxes on cheque clearing into an account and we are ready to foot such bill . I hope you could help on this issue You can call me on this number  +447031848655. Thanks Dr. Ian goodyear This is the latest from our friend Dr. Goodyear, he never gives up. The English mobile phone number is registered to a telecommunications company who sell the mobile numbers anywhere in the world.On calling this number and "foreign" gentleman answered so I put the phone down. He called me back within 5 mins. and when I asked for a fixed land line number he gave me a London number 02081457383 which I also a number which is not allocated in the UK.It seems to me that these companies who sell these numbers without any checks are the ones to blame for half the scams we have to put up with.
