  1. anyone on sky?? Totally frustrated with EE now and considering Sky or Virgin or possibly Talk - ..now know even more about fibre and companies than I ever new before. Even fibre as confirmed by BT yesterday works from exchange to box and then God only knows who is responsible from box into home.. EE by all current research is in 10/11 place. As someone mentioned to me, possibly all Zibam getting is a booster at the end of the day. Still buffering and frustratingly now disconnects regularly from server - new problem. Rant over
  2. I have also had problems for the last two weeks - with EE and have taken the steps to go fibre route to attempt to defuse the problem. Got sent 2 new routers and 2 BT engineers and no success at all. The only other thing you could try is Ethernet cable - a friend Tried this and solved problem. I am no techie so can't comment further however, one my frequent walks around ED coming across more employees at boxes from all companies connecting people to fibre.
  3. Another couple of thought - couples ton centre and what about asking on local church???
  4. How about approaching Bell House at 27 College Road - they from my understanding are becoming morexinvolved in community events... Also Southwark CAN has a volunteer section which I assume is for people but might give you some ides as to organisations/ charity.
  5. My toaster doesn't work and frustratingly know it must be an easy problem... Neither time or patience..
  6. Hi there, I volunteer at a local care home in East Dulwich and I know that there are a number of talented musicians in the local area and no doubt choirs to - children and adults. I was wondering if any person/ groups would be interested in entertaining the old folk - they are avert interesting bunch of people who have led very diverse lives. Dobthink about it - only asking for an hour or so of your time once/twice a year? Could be, subject to abit of forward planning an afternoon or early evening. We might even stretch to a cup off tea and biscuits after. Thanks for reading and PM if interested.
  7. Just seen this post and hope you are all connected Not sure if this helps, but when I was coming home yesterday afternoon around 3/30, there were two men from VM doing something with the I assume the junction box on Sylvester Road near Barry Road which I assume might be the nearest one to some of you. They did mention that fibre is the way to go....
  8. After a long and hard battle, I am staying with EE for ?25 for an 18 month contract with fibre. Getting installed on 21st. Also got a ?30 credit for absolutely appalling aervice but, now it is jumping about all over the place. Been particularly bad over the last few days. Only other company was Talk Talk - straight 12 months with no increase but just to tired to fight and argue - just want something reliable and works - I have been with EE for 10 years..!!! Didn't realise they were a wholly owned sub of BT.
  9. There is a group that has just set up in Herne Hill
  10. Pick up a copy of SE families - should be new one coming out soon, but you can find it in library and family friendly places.. Join Facebook for Spanish children in se
  11. Thank you.. I gather that Sky is the one to go for or Talk Talk who have a fixed price. Plus net is another - based on research and good customer feed back.
  12. Hi there, Having a truely frustrating time with EE as service keeps on dropping out and frequent buffering. Have now had compensation of one month refunded to me with a cost of ?29 for fiber if I start a new contract with them for 18 months which frankly is a No. Since it is my understanding that all suppliers use BT line and I am in contract until June guess I will just stay where I am and work in other ED or other areas. EE seem to think that they are doing me a huge favour - having been a customer for almost 5 years, can't be bothered to stay. I gather that fiber with Virgin is not great either. Someone has suggested that I don't need broadband with anyone and can just go into Personal Hotspot which is like double dutch to me. Rant over, assistance appreciated and thanks in advance.
  13. I have been looking into this as well as Having problems with EE but now that I have been told they all use BT lines, except Virgin & Sky assume they are much of a muchness. Looking into fibre next in the hope that I don't keep on loosing connection.. Vodafone does a package that is reasonable but not sure if it is for mobile or landline.. There again, folk moan about Virgin here as well so who knows..!!
  14. How about little superhero training? Dulwich Village. Lucy 07813791757 www.littlehericompany.com Lucy Soarkles www.lucysparkles.com Music for little people
  15. Great choice....lots around in local parks
  16. Mini schnauzer or mini labradoodle- both are ?allergy friendly ?.easy to train good family dogs, portable in that you can pick them up and carry them understand your arm. Other breed is Border Terrier. Downside t mini Schnauzer is they need to be clipped every 6/8 weeks.
  17. Agree with tomskip...name & shame PM me and I may be able to help
  18. Francis Peak Building in Dulwich Park - no idea as to costs. 0207 708 2806. There was a school locally that advertised rooms on EDF not should which section.
  19. I am with EE and am having problems. Just spoken to them again re drop out and was told they have 11 frequency settings they can try. Never get a straight answer from the different operators but have insisted that it is all detailed on computer so I don't have to go through the whole thing again. Yesterday operator said was to do with BT line that they share...!! Thanks for mention of femtocell might ask for one of those next call or maybe even a booster. Not sure if I left them, the service would be any better so will continue for a bit.
  20. Thanks for all your advice
  21. Hi there, Currently have an older VW Golf and am thinking about an electric car or perhaps a hybrid in view of changing laws. Does anyone have any advice they could offer? One of my major concerns is the lack of places to charge up - know there are places locally but was thinking further a field and also how many miles you get on one charge? VW that I am thinking about says roughly 200 miles. Also any pit falls that I have not considered? Thks in advance.
  22. I have recently moved into the area and quite surprised that my post including things ordered before Christmas has not turned up. The best has got to be a Christmas Card posted on 15/12/2017 that turned up this week - I hasten to add all correctly addressed. More worryingly, a white card which apparently only used before Christmas also turned up this week which was my diploma when I went to sorting office. Is this normal? Clearly yes as when Zi was queuing heard about parcels not arriving and more worryingly staff not being able to locate parcel and no explanation. Have informed post office and for those of you who are interested, this seems to havebeen a re accruing problem in Dulwich in general according to Dulwich Society Newletter. In future will pay for courtier service....
  23. I am with EE and can recommend them - not the super fast just basic which works for me. Not on TV package 'cause I don't need it. Was with Virgin years ago and would never touch them again or Sky. Very happy with EE and with several moves over the last few years they have been reliable and consistent. paying ?20 per month.
  24. And me - the woffers are going to love it as are many waking groups. Tks
