Since we moved in our new apartment in December last year, we have been having countless problems with the internet.
First when we moved in the internet used to go off for a couple of hours at 2pm everyday. We logged the problem with China Telecom everytime but the engineer always came round at 8am and could never find a problem. He would always say, if the problem happens again call me. We would call him at 2pm and he would always say I am too busy and would come round at 8am the next day.
Then they somehow solved the problem but insisted that they hadnt done anything to fix it. Then the problem started happening around 6pm everyday. We again called the engineer but had the same thing happening, with him coming round at 8am.
We never actually saw him testing anything in the house, maybe he tested something outside but we never saw any equipment with him. When we called China Telecom, my wife always spoke to them as they said they didnt have anyone that spoke English. I love my wife very much, but she isnt very good at complaining, apart from to me to of course.
Anyway the problem seemed to go away like last time and again theys aid they hadnt done anything.
The latest thing to go wrong, on Tuesday night we could only get onto Baidu and QQ. nothing else worked. We called China Telecom and they said at their end it showed that we had 5 computers online, when we only had 2. They said to wait a few hours and the problem should go away. All day Wednesday we had no internet. This morning the engineer came, the same one as before, and everything was working fine.
He said that he couldnt do anything, as everything was working fine. I called customer service and tried to find someone that spoke English. Amazingly I finally found someone (if you ever need her, her staff number is 8250).
I told her what my problem has been since we moved in and she asked if the internet was ok now. I said yes, she said ok call us if you have a problem again. I said I wanted something done so that it never happens again. She said that she will look into it.
Finally I have been told that its because we are using more than 4 computers in our house, when actually we are only using 2. She said if I can promise that we wont use more than 4 computers again, we wont have anymore problems.
Trying to explain to her that we have never had more than 2 computers in the house so there should have never been a problem, is very hard. She is using the broken record technique of saying the same thing over and over again until I go away.
They really dont understand that there must be something wrong, they are trying to blame it on me.
Has anyone had the same problem with China Telecom
