BT WHOLE HOME WIFI

It's rant time after my Uncle's shoddy experience with BT. He needed an extra disk for his WiFi - which comes from BT btw.

Off to the shop online, logon as an existing BT WholeHome WiFi customer, picks BT WholeHome WiFi additional disk as shown.

note it says works with any broadband service provider. So as I already have BT WholeHome WiFi it should be a shoe in yes?

Waited for 3 days for it to arrive, follow instructions to the letter and it doesn't fuckin work.

Phone BT shop, get bounced around.

BT: Hello sir can I help you?
Me YES I can't get my new BT WholeHome WiFi disk to work.

BT: Have you followed the instructions sir?
Me No I just pressed all the buttons at random.

BT very witty sir. Who is your provider
Me YOU ARE FFS

BT let us just check ah yes you have BT WholeHome WiFi premium and you've bought a BT WholeHome WiFi extra disk.
Me yep call me cavalier

BT ah well the BT WholeHome WiFi disk doesn't work with BT WholeHome WiFi premium.

Me despite the fact it says works with ANY provider and I just happen to have you BT WholeHome WiFi as my provider?

BT aaah ... I can see you've spotted the flaw in our online website. 
Me No shit Sherlock. The flaw is that your product doesn't work with your network despite having an identical name.

BT afraid so sir yes, we've deliberately wasted your time. 
Me can I swap this Duffer for an exact match?

BT aaah we don't have any in stock that's why they didn't show on the website.
Me didn't stop you showing near identical but incompatible disks did it?

BT aaah you've spotted the other flaw in our website
Me well you can piss right off...

Stay Woof

My Mate Frank

Is a sheepdog and his two-legged is a farmer. Frank was out with him in the tractor drilling wheat last autumn and they unearthed a rusty old lamp. So the farmer hopped out of the cab to have a closer look at it and gave it a little rub on his jacket, as you do, and was amazed to see a genie appear and offer to grant him any wish he wanted. Well the farmer thought for a moment and then said "I'd like the price of wheat to go to £200/tonne!" So the genie sighed but said "OK, I'll sort that out for you then, you greedy bastard" and popped back into his bottle. And the farmer casually tossed the lamp into the back of his cab and got on with his drilling. Well they were out again this morning putting a bit of nitrogen on, Frank and the farmer, and the farmer spotted the lamp and gave it a little rub again, just on the off chance, and you'll never guess what happened, the genie popped out again, and said that he'd grant the farmer one more wish. So the fa...

RIP Frank Carson

It's a little known fact that Frank Carson actually got into comedy purely by chance. When he was a young man, he was a church bell-ringer in Northern Ireland, but he was so bad at it that every time he rang the bells, everyone immediately burst out laughing. It was the way he tolled them. Pooh count: two, and one of them a cracker that has your name on it Frankie. You can pick it up from Pearly Gates reception on your way in.
