Angry recabling

What does it take to get a re-cabling.
I have dodgy internet every time we have a period of heavy rain.
Typically, we will lose connection for 10 mins, a whole evening or a couple of days. This will repeat for as long as the rainy weather lasts, sometimes a month or more. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/im...lies/tdown.gif
Over the years with Yorkshire Cable/NTL/Virgin, every time the problem has reoccurred we are promised a new cable "next time". All I ever get is changed attenuator.
We have had 3 engineer visits in last month. After last visit, Virgin promised to ring back to check if ok - still waiting call. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/im...milies/mad.gif
Spent 40 mins "on hold", & 10 mins speaking to 4 different people on so called helpline. Virgin promised engineer would phone back next day - I think you've already guessed - no call. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/im...milies/mad.gif
Is it time to give up unreliable "fast" cable & go for "slow" copper? http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/im...s/confused.gif
