RANT!!! — Lilandra @ 11:36 pm
When Chennette did her master’s she made friends. So, I don’t know how much contact she’s in with all of them but I think there were…3 she talked about regularly.
Well of those three, one had a Nikon SLR (not digital) and his girlfriend recently bought a D80.
Another of those three has a Nikon SLR too (digital? I don’t know).
ewe_are_here is the other but her husband didn’t buy a Nikon recently. I forget what tho she told us.
So this is how she is saying she wants a Nikon!
Conspiracy.
I hope all the D50s don’t sell out by the time we’re ready.
*fumes*
If any of her other friends are reading this, I’m just her sister. What do I know about who her friends are. (But you don’t have a website for me to link and you don’t have a Nikon so you’re not relevant!)
Very cute speed test.
I wish the state of internet in Trinidad was better.
My mom’s letters to our ISP (GreenDot) usually results in someone1 frantically trying to contact her/us. It was a beautiful letter.
But will they do anything?
We asked them to reduce our package to 128k/64k because when I don’t get the 64k and the good service I won’t feel as hurt2 as when I don’t get the 256k/64k.
Should I just get a new ISP? But who? Dial-up with TSTT? Try to get EV-DO with TSTT? But why pay that if I already don’t trust TSTT with my dial-up. My options are really just other wireless providers like GreenDot (Lisa, Caribel, Carib-Net). I don’t know if they’re any good. Should I pay another huge hookup fee to just get rid of them?
Should I just wait for Flow to come? They’re my cable company and some people don’t trust them either. But…their cable service here is…passable…is passable enough? Will they really come here like I was told?
Oh well, here’s my speedtest (clearly they’ve not reduced it to 128k yet and my upload still…sucks!)



- Almost always seems to be a DIFFERENT someone. Passing the buck so it’s always tell me what’s the problem, how big was the file you were trying to download? (Like it was one file I was downloading.) You know if it’s a file several megabytes in size it will take longer. Idiots! I’m not an idiot. Obviously. Did you run speed tests on toast.net? I’ve run speed tests everywhere. How else do you think I’m telling you…and idiot if you talked to people who we were communicating with before…well…hmmm…they would’ve told you yes we did run speed tests and we call and tell you it sucks.
The thing is, I’m tired of talking to someone new. Mom and I are just tired. We don’t want to repeat the same old story every single time. It’s tiring and draining and you start questioning questioning and I’m just fed up and mom’s just fed up. Stop stealing our money and give us good service without all the cut outs. Come check our service too.

FYI:
US Exchange Rate: US$1 = TT$6.33 (approx)
256k/64k package: TT$375 + VAT = TT$431.25 (a month)
128k/64k package: TT$275 + VAT = TT$316.25 (a month)
Hurt Savings: TT$115 = US$18 (approx)
Is reduced download speed really worth US$18? Who knows! I just don’t see why I should give them all our money.
