Appalling TM phone and Internet connections

Appalling phone and Internet connections

I WOULD like to highlight issues regarding my TM fixed line and Streamyx Internet connections which have not been resolved for more than a month.

I have been having telephone problems such as distortion for some time now. So I made a complaint to TM’s call centre.

The next day, one of their technicians came and checked on the problem. He told me my internal telephone wiring had to be changed and gave me a quotation.

So I made an appointment with him after a few days to do it. He came and did the wiring and I paid him as promised.



Soon after, my nightmare began.

It is more difficult to make and receive calls and my Streamyx connection started giving problems. I called the technician, but he said he didn’t do anything wrong. However, a supervisor who came afterwards told me the technician had used the wrong cable.

So I decided to complain to TM again and they sent another technician but until today the problem has not been fixed.

I’m really fed up and considering changing to another provider. The only thing stopping me is the loss of my existing number.

I am a university student and I neThe Stared to use the Internet for my assignments, projects and research.
