Are you a recent customer of Orange Broadband and experiencing no ftp upload connection or very slow upload speeds? I bet you are connecting to your router wirelessly too huh. Well fear not, I have the solution!
After 3 days of speaking to the frankly useless Orange Tech Help, various speed tests and my own fiddlings I finally stumbled upon a solution.
So lets cut to the chase because if you were as frustrated as me then you are on the verge of telling Orange to stuff it and have a big tantrum.
The fix:
Log into your router (If …
I recently revceived two letters from the Bank of Scotland both of which informed me of the same changes to be applied to seperate accounts.
The title read thus; “Important news about changes to your Bank of Scotland Current account” it should have read something like this; “We have thought of a new way to screw more money out of you”
The changes are to the overdraft fees. Bank of Scotland are no longer charging a debit interest rate but will be charging a pound a day for every day you are in your overdraft (for overdrafts upto £2,500)! At …

Ive got quite a few businesses listed but only one ever got displayed for some reason? The listing that appeared was for the key term “Web Design Perth” and my website www.webdesign-perth.co.uk was the one displayed (although I have two others business websites listed which dont appear?) before I added this one it was www.thepathwebdesign.com that was displayed. It had been displayed no problem for over 1 year in a prominent position.
I recently added another business to my Local Business Centre …

If you receive a cold call from Creditsafe (ASA Creditsafe – Creditsafe Business Solutions Ltd – www.creditsafeuk.com) or their sister company Marketsafe (www.marketsafeuk.com) please just say you are not interested and hang up the phone. If you let them speak the salesperson will aggressively sell you their services for the “low” price of £800, you can however haggle them down to £150 if you show complete disinterest! Thats a good deal I hear you cry, well no think about it. What does it tell you about them as a business and the service they offer if they devalue it so …

OK that’s it Ive finally had enough! This rant has been brewing and indeed people closest to me have had to endure it consistently up until this point. So hopefully this will get it all off my chest never to be spoken of again (mmm doubtful). As you can see I have also vented my frustrations on the Twitter bird…ahhh makes me feel a little better.
Twitter………..what a complete load of pants that’s been jumped on by every celeb with a PC and no common sense. I mean come on what real use is Twitter providing apart from keeping the …
Why do we (I suppose more so the media) build people up to a God like status then shoot them down……the answer is of course money. That’s what sells papers, magazines and what makes news sites and blogs popular.
But who’s fault is it? The media wouldn’t publish the stuff if the general public were not lapping it up. So surely we can not blame the media for supplying the masses with information they want to read, hear and watch! Perhaps over the years we have been groomed to accept and even look for this type of information but I …
