    it seems that not only has three ireland got boards.ie by the proverbials(i post my dismal experience with dealing with them and i get banned by boards/three)

    but also boards/three.ie cannot decide whether a posting ban should include a ban on reading any particular forum. all this since that IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THREE LOL would be laughable if not so serious!

    is this where the naughty people hang their heads in shame for speaking the truth about the unaffiliated yet all powerful three?

    If you're banned from a forum, you're banned from posting and reading. There's no way to separate the two. You can log out to read the forum.

    i do feel that i have been unfairly banned for posting my experiences with three and yes i do accept that i did include a lot about customer service BUT with three at the moment the service is all about customer service and the lack of any service!

    i was merely explaining that in ten weeks all customer service had done was chase their tails covering the same ground over and over again!

    if i am not allowed post about this in mobiles&pda's please let me know where i can bring this up as i feel a company are only as good as their response!

    For you yes, but not for the mods and owners of boards.

    I dont really see the problem you were warned about discussing a network providers customer support a month ago and yet you decided to stick up another thread about it. Take the Ban and ssssh now, let us enjoy the peace.

    No.

    You could spend an entire thread making up stuff about anybody and then boards.ie gets in trouble.

    You don't have freedom of speech.

    Why should the owners of Boards take all the risk? Get off your lazy ass and make your own site if you want to say whatever you like.

    Pop onto Google and search for vBulletin ... its only $160.

    It’s "their" dumbass. I think it’s clear you are an ass and the reason they probably aren't arsed helping you is because of your attitude. The same reason why I doubt you will get much help from the mods here.

    In fact the rules of that forum state
    "If you have a problem with your phone, in particular with coverage, lost PINs, sending SMS or MMS or similar, then your first port of call should be your operator's customer support rather than here.

    Why? Because chances are they deal with your problem hundred's of times a day and they'll help you resolve it within minutes. Also because the last thing we need is the front page cluttered with threads that invariably end in a "talk to your customer support" post.

    Now if they weren't able to fix it for you, then by all means post and let us know that you tried them first. Otherwise your thread will get locked / binned without further warning."

    <- most recent rule regarding it Post #6 in the Rules, so what's wrong with it ?

    Because he wasn't looking for help with a problem, he was bítching about their customer care. That isn't what the forum is for. Also he was previously warned by a moderator to stop. He ignored that warning, he got banned. I can't see anything wrong with that to be honest.

    He wasn't asking for help fixing a problem, he was complaining about there service. The charter states
    specific/personal consumer issues should be directed to the company concerned, posted in the Consumer Issues board or contact the National Consumer Agency directly

    No you weren't.
    ...they have consistently FAILED to provide a resolution or even a proper Customer care procedure!

    my next step will be a protest outside my local three store! anyone got any advice like who do i need to inform or give notice to?
    they couldn't provision a pissup in a brewery


    Those two comments were whining about the companies customer service which doesn't belong in mobiles & pdas. They belong in consumer issues, which is where dubwireless directed you to.

    Even on this thread you insist on complaining about three's customer service even though this is not the place. We are talking about your ban here which as far as I can see was for repeatedly posting threads and comments that are not related to the forum.
