Average waiting time of IOLBB

Khannie

How long were you waiting to get your line enabled? I just ordered on Friday. Forgot to ask. I have a router / modem already, so that's not a bottleneck.

Apologies if this has been asked already. No searchy searchy.

11 weeks and a day...

after i cancelled my utv clicksilver trial, that's how long it took to get BB back with BT Ireland

Leave your router/modem connected, when you see upstream/downstream phone them and look for login details
Well thats what I did, they eventually gave me a modem 4 weeks later as their system finally showed my line enabled

it took me around 10 weeks from making the first call to BT to getting my connection setup. God damn cabaal if I'd read your post earlier I would have set up the spare modem and probably had internet for the last while. The reason I was delayed for the 2 and a half months was because I needed to pay them a deposit but they never sent the request to my home. I read on boards that they often wait for a deposit before giving you bb so I rang them up and was able to pay with a credit card. 3 weeks after that I was in business.

All I can say: it takes LOOOOOOOOOONG time

I had mine within 2 weeks of ordering, but that was in June before the current offers so there may have been less demand at the time.

Jebus. Thought we'd be looking at days. I placed the order last friday. Been checking the line every day with my own router and no joy so far.

Thanks for the replies.
