    Gmail down?

    Every site is working fine, but Gmail seems to be down. I'm with 3bb, worst company in the world, switching to CAT next week.

    I hate 3bb too. Last year I paid them via internet for several months and got notified that none of my payments were ever received. They harrassed me for months via telephone. I sent them all my transfer records and they still insisted that they weren't paid. Finally I threated them with a lawsuit and they finally credited me for my payments.

    I switched from TOT to 3bb when we moved house, and 3bb have so far been faster and much more reliable during the last 6 month's or so, I guess it sometimes has something to do with where you live how you experience your connection quality.

    And my Gmail is working.

    A lot of people report being ok for the first 6 months or so, the the service deteriorating drastically. The conspiracy theory is they flick everyone to indy after some time, their outdated infrastructure can't handle the customer base This is from Thai forums my missus was reading. Definately the case with us.

    Anyone used CAT landline service? Actually moving premises to get them, they seem to be the best and are the most expensive. Reccomended to me by a guy who owns an internet cafe.

    I once had an HR application that said it was going home if I didn't stop calling it a useless piece of shit.

    Do that ones that can't send to you get an error message back?
    If so, what does it say?

    Works fine on FF (Fire Fox, prince). May not be long before gMail won't work there either. Could it be Google wants us all using Chrome?

    No, no message. Nothing at all, just a phone call a few hours later saying "are you gonna send that bloody email or not?"

    Could be that, since MS are likely phasing out IE6 and therefore not doing any more work to patch security holes, Google are likewise protecting you by telling you not to use it?

    Yes I know what FF is. I'd completely forgotten about Internet Explorer.

    I use Firefox but my gmail is sent through TB. (Thunderbird to any other dumb ass's )

    I actually use my Gmail accounts in MS Outlook, and I must admit I haven't had any problems (then again, I'm not in Thailand at the mo).

    Using firefox I was unable to access gmail for the last 2 days -server would not accept request. I could on IE and Chrome, however. Deleted and re-installed FF twice (2nd time not saving bookmarks, etc) before it worked. Then Chrome stopped connecting to it! Who knows wtf is going on.

    Gmail has been going shit here in Thailand for months,

    I suspect that the surveillance proxy that the ISP use for the Thai government are responsible for the sluggishness of the service

    it's a bit better on the iPhone, but hardly as it should be

    I made one payment via the internet and had to get my money back from K-Bank. Just pay the old fashioned way now and make sure they keep my package price down to the latest offer (much to the annoyance of their call centre).

    3bb has been pretty good here. It occasionally goes down, but what do you expect in a country populated by retards.
