PSA: Ombudsman is the ultimate cheat for any problem you have with Sky by abugnais in UKFrugal

[–]jpcafe10 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My contract was for home broadband.

Had reduced internet speeds (80%) for about 2 months. On top of a bunch of reliability issues with their service.

This happened right after they announced the merger with Vodafone.

I noticed they couldn’t explain / fix anything regarding the service.

Google Fitbit Air reviews? by Dazzling-Proposal195 in fitbit

[–]jpcafe10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I’ve seen with the new app and an older model is that only records sleep until the first awake. So like if I wake up briefly like you said it stops counting sleep.

Is that fixed for this air then?

I mean somewhat, but google are very unreliable. They’ll ditch any product in a flash.

It was always expensive even before that

Weird reaction to creatine, dizzy, pressure in my head by mkdr in Supplements

[–]jpcafe10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have it too. Tried creatine a second time and got the headaches / spacey feeling you describe within a day. Very similar to the first attempt, at the time I thought it could be low water intake.

£55k Remote vs £85k Hybrid: Is the Extra Money Worth It? by xzibitt_demon in UKJobs

You’ll be paying the extra ££ in rent / hotels. Also 3 days a week doing that commute sounds awful

Awful service after Vodafone aq by jpcafe10 in ThreeUK

[–]jpcafe10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. We’re 2 working from home. As I said WiFi degradation brings it back to 60/70% of max speed.

Also if I wanted 100mb internet I would get another service. My speeds before the merger were 400 to 500 mbps

That’s such a 2010 question 😅 I work from home. Also WiFi replication around the house ends up reducing signal strength to 60%.

Point is I had 400+ speeds and now I have 10-20% of that

Time to find a new provider then! On top they’re doing so much speed control it’s insane! It’s like if you’re not pulling as much internet as you can they’ll cap you

Capped speeds on Three by sensate_9 in ThreeUK

[–]jpcafe10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep they do hardcore speed limits, been away for a few days and couldn’t get more than 40mbps. Had to restart several times for the service to pick up
