I had complaints with Pipex my old provider, BT loused up my connection and then a series of problems with them and Pipex’s customer service made me decide to leave them and move elsewhere.

So I moved from Pipex to Plusnet, I know that others have had no trouble but I have had nothing but trouble since I joined.  First I joined the wrong plan, the plan I joined did not detail that I would get really poor download speeds even on web, so part my fault part theirs due to poor descriptions of what is and isn’t included.

I switched to the better plan, now I’m paying 5 quid a month more for an inferior service to pipex, Pipex’s network was rock solid with no tampering, plusnet’s network seems solid enough but they apply QoS to your line between certain hours.

I have tried to get out of them exactly what is going on but I get short terse responses explaining I have exceeded my 30gb limit.  the supposed limit is for peak time download.  Whilst one part of their system tells me I have downloaded 8gb, which is close to my estimate, the support dick tells me its 30gb, well there isn’t More >

I haven’t had much to say recently, the big sharepoint implementation has now finished and I will be honest I’m glad to see the back of it.  So if your looking for sharepoint insights, for the time being there ain’t gonna be any, well not untill the team site restriction is lifted an I have a bunch of templates to create or until the office 12 services rollout anyway.

So to get back to things, here is a list of my favourite firefox extensions, you might be interested but for me I can record the ones I use for the next machine rebuild.  In image format as I haven’t tried that in dasBlog yet.
