Sky Broadband

[saxondale.]

They sent an email saying my account will be disconnected and my account will be credited ?40. Still CONNECTED.

Called them asking for a MAC code, the techy said they cant issue it because other ISP dont work with the same type of MAC codes.

Let me look into that and i will let u know tomorrow, i don't deal with issuing mac codes, and have never been asked to retrieve one.

Don't complain that your still connected ! have you been credited yet?

Not yet, here is the email:

Yeah Chordiant sucks mate!! Had to use it as a Tier1 Sky TV Technician. Totally funkin useless

Ok, firstly, Chordiant is NOT a troubleshooting program. It is the core account management system for Sky and is used for all main processes on an account, be it checking billing information, portfolio history, contact history, placing orders, cancelling products or subscriptions, or reinstating things...etc.

Secondly, sky broadband works perfectly well with build-in wireless. Part of the terms and conditions of Sky Broadband point out that you only need to buy wireless adaptors from Sky if you do not alreadu have a wireless enabled PC and do not wish to buy the equipment elsewhere.

Thirdly, on to earlier comments, Sky Broadband requires a TV sucscription because that is where Sky make their money. Broadband is an ADDON product, not a standalone product for Sky. Why? For the same reason it is so cheap from Sky. They make nearly no money on Broadband, and infact within the first year actually make a LOSS in setting a customer up on it. Without them also having a TV subscription, it would not be monetarily sound for Sky to provide Broadband to a customer. The same also goes for Sky Talk.
