Hey @ring - can you let Ryan in your "Neighbour Solutions Expert Team" know that emailing me from a noreply email with no other contact method isn't particularly helpful! Tried replying just in case it's a weird config - but sure enough it doesn't work...

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, leading Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.
So @2degreesmobile appear to have destroyed my latency over a BOVPN across town with their network "upgrade" - was 2ms home to office, now 20ms. Support's suggestion after escalating was "restart your router." I'm skeptical but will try when I've got a gap.

Oh and @Milkman0O - your post has been flagged by Twitter, convinienty proving my third point. You've also shown that you don't seem to know what it means.

"Great" support from @ring.... enter a chat, ask if a cable is compatible. Answer: "No." Ok, so what one is compatible "Here's a link" which included the cable I asked about. Pointed that out, and got the "if there's nothing else I'll end the chat" response. Hopeless.

This is disgusting - the Tamaki cult are parasites, preying on those who can least afford it, so of course they'll open in South Invercargill. thepress.co.nz/nz-news/36052…

Second night in a row that Three News cut off today's temp crawl after Queenstown, missing out Invercargill. WTF is going on there?

Most providers: Put in a porting request a week out, they action it on the date requested.
@2degreesmobile: put in a porting request a week out, they remove it from their switch immediately so my business has no office number....

Hope the pizza is still good, sounds like more stuff has broken and can hear someone who I'm guessing is a supervisor telling other staff off. Think there's a lot of stress here!

So seeing the @patrickgowernz chocolate piece on Three - no hair nets, no gloves, owner visibly getting her hair in the packaging then flicking it off? I think I'll give it a miss.
