The damn thing looks just like what IBC, which became UBC which became True Visions started with 20 years ago!!!

TRUE is screwing again today.

Also I got a w3.mict.go.th warning going to TD and a few other international sites

I'm not surprised, it's a bit fucking dodgy.

Yup we had a power outage last night and my router is now not working. It shows a signal through the Lan cable to the main computer but nothing in the house will come up. I have called my guy and am awaiting his call back. I will keep you guys informed. This is a "True" test.

Last night, when my wife called TRUE there was a recorded announcement saying that TRUE was having technical problems in most parts of the country.

She got a live person after a few minutes and the head technical guy said it must be our phone line. My wife mentioned that TRUE was having problems in many areas and he denied it. She told him what the recorded message said and he said he had not heard of any problems.

sounds just about right. He said he would get back to me. The wife got the recorded message last night. the idiot she spoke to this morning said our router is broken. the guy I called is the only one I will let in my house. Could be a few days but I hope not.

I was wondering who gave the order to put the recorded message on their phone system? And the head technical guy had know idea there were reported problems?

I can see the board room talk -

Somchai: "Let's put a message on our phone system saying the whole country is experiencing problems. That way the lemmings will just hang up and we won't have to deal with them"

Watpen: "But we are not experiencing any problems as our service is always like this. This is normal"

Somchai: Yes but it will free up our customer service staff so they can get some sleep or pop out and visit their gik. Life is meant to be nothing but fun and games."

Watpen: "Great idea Khunpoochai!!!"

To make a short story long. I left for work and called my guy at 8am he said he would straighten every thing out by the end of the day and call him when I got home if it did not work. I told him I would be home at 1:30 as we are closing down classes for uni finals. After dropping off the kids my wife decided to come home and call True to find out why last night they said they had a system problem, and why this morning she was told our router was the problem. She spent two hours with technical support trying to fix it only to be told, buy a new router. She called me and for once listened when I told her that Khun adfjajfalj was coming to fix it. So she would not buy a new router today.

At 1:30 I got home and it was still fucked, but could connect to google via wireless from my laptop I brought home from work. But only google could go no where else. I called adfjlajdakj again and said can you come? He was teaching technicians and said he would be here at 3pm, he arrived 8 minutes late.

Within 5 minutes he was able to detect the router was fine, we had signal from router to computer but no signal to router. Luckily my "exchange" box is the term they use is close by in my muban. He sent his second to check it. It was bad but they had a phone call and I could tell in my limited Thai that the technician was concerned if he should use copper or fibre cable to fix it. My guy became heated and said just fix it so I can see if that is the problem. It was. Soon it was up and running. But not quite right. Some pages with US servers like here and speakeasy.net which I use for speed checks were quite slow.

I had to leave to pick up the kids and he took off to another job at Talat Rangsit. But said if it was not perfect in 48 hours to call him. I got back home 45 minutes later and it was all perfect. Faster than before.
As I set out on my balcony having a smoke and a beer it hit me, he went and checked the under guys job before he went to Rangsit. I rang him and joked him and asked if he did? Of course the under had done it the wrong way, and he fixed it at the "exchange" in 3 minutes on was on his way.

This one guy keeps me going with this shit company. Just got my bill today, and they expect me to pay as always one month in advance. Check your Bills they are always like that.

So Chi, am am sorry for you, he cant help in Suphan, but he does sympathise with you.

Over and out.

TRUE has advised me that they will be sending one of their Muppets out tomorrow. That is about the 8th visit with ZERO results.

Should be Untrue visions. They are just as bad. I was eating a delicious burrito today enjoying watching the Ali - Joe Frasier movie. The fight in Manilla was about to begin and the screen went black followed by a message saying they were experiencing difficulties and the program would return shortly. I missed the fight as the movie was over when service returned!

Thats because they failed to pay into the pay per view

So TRUE internet sends out some pimple faced ignoramus. This idiot fools around with my router for about and hour. He exits my office to leave and tells my wife "You have low sapeeeed."

Low speed you say? Really? Thanks for the revelation.

Would I have rang these idiots up if I my speed was fast?

If I was not so angry or if it was happening to someone else, this might be slightly funny.

This country has to be the most frustrating place on the planet.

I think I will spend 4 or 4 hours a day posting a day on this thread so it will on page one of Google when anyone searches for True internet Thailand. I think everyone in the world show know that the worst internet service is not found in Oman or Kenya, but rather found in the heart of the Land of Smiles - True internet Thailand.

Wait, I have to go now. This idiot called the main off at True internet Thailand and was informed that these days they are having massive amounts of trouble with the router made by Zyxel.

Now True internet Thailand never realized that the router they exclusive distribute to their customers is horrible until 2 minutes ago.

I am going to log off so spotty boy can connect a new router.

Stay tuned for this live broadcast of idiots on parade at True internet Thailand.

Sounds awful Chi, by the way my router is D link not zxel or what ever it is. Just wish we could find a guy with a brain for you. As I said only one True technician is allowed in my house. I dont call true, I deal with him directly.

This spotty kid has to have an IQ of a piece of parsley.

This is going on four months of major problems with my True internet of Thailand service.

Are these potato heads just realizing that the router they exclusively hand out are no good?

Just today a light bulb appeared over some idiots head and said the router made by Zyxel is crap? I assume they are still handing this crap out to their new customers that sign up for True internet of Thailand?

I think, if the truth be know, is that the bozos at true internet of Thailand do not know how to tell the truth. I think it is a lie to save face. Let's blame it on the router so True and their clowns do not lose face.

If I was a True worker, I would resign. The difference is I have integrity and could not work for a company that has no integrity. The employees at True internet of Thailand are more than happy to work (I use the term "work" loosely - lazy bafoons) there as long as they can get their hands on a few thousand baht to buy somtum and alcohol each month.

They had 3 difficult to solve cases yesterday and a Zyxel router was the common denominator - he drew a conclusion from that.

I have a whole bunch of different routers and modems collected over the years, Zyxel, SMC, D-Link, and then some not-so-known-brands.
I've now got the very old Zyxels on both of my ADSL lines cause they are the only modem/routers that can uphold the connection during heavy rain and storms - all the other brands do lots of disconnects when the outdoor boxes and cable splices get wet or the cable starts to swing during storms.
