Hmm, thats interesting I just put my postcode in for
Crawley and it says its available to me from the 2nd
September. I'm sure it'll be a cock up but I've put
my name down anyway.

Their postcode search seemed messed up last night, was working correctly
again earlier on

Has anyone got a call back from Eurobell yet? If they go live on September
they aint gonna have many users unless they pull their finger out!

I rang them as I hadn't received the call back - the 0800 number given
on their website after posting the registration form was the wrong one
- I was given 0800 499 994 - rang that and was told they are not
accepting requests until Monday 2nd Sept. They reckon it will be
between 7-10 days after registration to have it all installed.

Can you provide some further details? I'll see if I can get this
investigated.

Cheers

Alex

Hi Alex, on the site when you typed in your postcode it then produced a list
of properties in that postcode from which you selected your house, you then
entered further details on the next screen. The other night it bypassed the
house select part and went straight to the further details screen. I can't
remember what the URL said but I think I saw the word error there somewhere.

Cheers, Shane.

Hi Shane

If it re-occurs can you mail me some info, screenshots etc and I can dig
into what's causing it and get it sorted.

Thanks

The Telewest Eurobell site only references the 0.5Mbit service. Is the
1Mbit service available in the area too?

Spoke to one of the marketing guys and 1Mb will be available in the area in
2003 sometime.
