Post your Correctable/Uncorrectable Codewords horror stories..

You know you want to :P

As some from here have seen, the staff at VM think high levels of CC's are fine. I say there is a massive problem. They think its a problem with me, but have had plenty of techs out in the past and nothing wrong with my connection etc.

But they persist in shifting the blame to myself, funny thing is there is always a bad channel, but the last week holy bat mobile its been horrendous.

Got to love that 2nd channel, a few days ago it was close to 190 MILLION yes million CC's before I reset the modem.

So don't know what fairy land they live in to expect this to be acceptable (even at lesser but high amounts also). This is in Uddingston (supposed to have been upgraded this month.... lawl yeah wonder how many months this will be pushed back also)


What about you guys, post your horror pastes and what location you are in. Lets see what others have. Would love to see other Uddingston users post theirs too.
