Recently my local telephone exchange was enabled for broadband. Yesterday I ordered my line to be enabled and told that the line was ‘Amber’ and may only get 1Mbps. Kinda expected that, but then I asked for a static IP address. I was told that since we were only on 1Mbps, the line couldn’t hold an IP. After running an ISP for 10 years, I don’t think so!

Asked to speak to a member of the technical team… refused!
