I can only agree with all of the above. A chap named 'Preet' phoned my wife and did a really hard sell on her. Baby crying and kicking, dog barking and general chaos in the house, she switched over. I got home and suggested that we stay with perlico. There was no problem you see, they tell you, you can cancel anytime within ten working days. We canceled within an hour.

Now my broadband is shagged, Perlico tell us we aren't with them. A daft and ignorant b*t*h from eircom told me that we are not with them at all. Another one says we are. Phone calls. Letter. More phone calls. Still no joy. Plenty of rudeness though.

Although not with eircom, up the drive arrives a netopia modem for me. 'Delighted that I have returned to eircom' note with it.

In the heel of the hunt all I want is revenge on someone.

Mike.
