No chance, Not By Half and Not On Their....

No chance, Not By Half and Not On Their.... When I think of all the times Of all the times I have sat here Trying to get this stuff reconnected Its hardly enough to fill anyone with good cheer Yet I am thinking come on take heart Just think of that goodwill and cake you want to compart Yet they ring me up five times a day Selling all their services Of course all at an exhorbitant price Yeah, I have thought about it all more than thrice So I let them gabble on with their sales talk Yet I am thinking to myself You can sit there for another three thousand years Try to sell me what you will Because no chance, not by half and not on their nelly Not on their little nelly am I buying what they say Go, come back in another five thousand years is what I say. So here we go again, trying to get the internet to connect. This is a company I would certainly reject but there are only another two at the moment and they are just as bad. No fibre optic here to be had. Its a humorous outlook on the service they give and seeing as the others only want to sell you their television packages which do not work I am just having to have the patience with these ermmm I shall not fill in that word there lol. So goodwill and a big slice of cream cake is what I am doing to have a break from all this stuff.

That’s so frustrating, but all you can do is wait for better service and enjoy cream cake.

Sorry to see that yours is not good either. If I were to tell them the amount of times I have been having to do what I do to get it going they would be here for dinner and tea and I know I am not alone with the same problem. At the end of the day money is the tune they hum as it goes into their pockets. Good luck with finding a new better service.

@bunnybon7 This cake was okay not loaded with sugar which was much better. Glad you enjoyed that piece though.

Okay so right now I am sending you some have you got it yet? Its a good job I only eat a small piece of once a year. Spanish cakes are way too sweet. Sending you all the sweetness and the comfort you can get from it.

I totally agree. It is so frustrating when someone tries to sell you something that doesn't work and is so expensive. I'm locked into an Internet whose cost keeps going up. I have one other choice and that one is the worst of the two.

It works because I have to make it work really. I have my little tricks I get up to to get that internet back online but it can get you really riled up some days.

There are other sayings which are applicable: "Pigs might fly ...", "Chance would be a fine thing" and "Are Bears Catholics?" Cream cake is certainly a panacea for such things!

You can say that again I think that teeny weeny bit of cream cake has done the job more than anything and not on their nelly am I going to pay for such a service I am sticking to their old charges at the moment and pledging their would be other charges to something more worthy methinks.

Bad, if all the options they offer there are not too good, re: internet connection. I love the idea of a slice of cream cake. (That reminds me that I have some sponge cake left in the fridge, with some custard.)
