RE: INCREASE YOUR IQ BY LEARNING A LANGUAGE
Yes brush up! Download duolingo, it's great, you'll find that as you go through the lessons, you know and remember far more than you give yourself credit for. That's what happened with me and German; it's all in there :-)
Yeah weird with BT, basically I discovered that they had doubled my line rental etc from £31 to £63 and then tried to say that they told me from the beginning (they didn't) and then I discovered loads of hidden charges, which is a pretty serious corporate crime in the UK.
I reckon they were just trying to get me to leave, once I'm not a customer, it's difficult to speak to customer services, and of course I won't have a case file.
Anyways, the guy is calling back to day and we're going to discuss compensation.
Without sounding too dramatic, these last 3 weeks have been extremely traumatic, it's like mental torture not having the internet. Especially as I have terrible mobile coverage, so when I'm at home I use Whatsapp to speak to people.
Anyway, back now; whoohoo!
I can imagine the feeling of torture...we're SO dependent on the internet that it's hard to live without it if you're trying to get something done. It's one thing if you were on vacation off the grid or something, but to go on with life and trying to accomplish your usual just seems impossible. Hope you get fully compensated from BT, they have certainly overstepped!
