I in fact suggested that I was moved to dial up which they did. However, as a project manager I had every eventuality planed before the move to keep business running.andicrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17555866146377111155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8321975.post-39545929327125148852009-05-14T12:01:00.000+01:002009-05-14T12:01:00.000+01:00The solution is simple and one that any ISP can us...The solution is simple and one that any ISP can use. <br /><br />1. Downgrade the ADSL account to dialup, thereby breaking the association between the Demon account and a physical phone line.<br />2. ADSL account is migrated, meanwhile Demon user can still access mail via dialup and have a working website.<br />3. Complete ADSL migration and test line<br />4. Migrate temporary dialup account onto new ADSL line.<br /><br />How simple was that?<br /><br />BTW I've copyrighted the above, any ISP wishing to use it to do the Really Obvious needs to pay me a royalty fee of £5 for being so stupid as to have not thought of it already.Craig Cockburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13627819863234028263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8321975.post-64497944007740273732007-11-27T14:57:00.000+00:002007-11-27T14:57:00.000+00:00whoops, my typing is appalling but you get the ide...whoops, my typing is appalling but you get the idea of what I was sayign hopefullyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8321975.post-9460903392321914792007-11-27T14:56:00.000+00:002007-11-27T14:56:00.000+00:00actually I think you'll find the inability to tran...actually I think you'll find the inability to transfer your home is common to all ISPs that use ADSL.

They can't get into any customer accounts as Demon's systems are down, moreover I had to ask the same question 5 times "Is it quicker for me to solve this by email or phone" before I got an answer. Complete shite.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18373085280767947395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8321975.post-32483317644309860552007-09-09T10:05:00.000+01:002007-09-09T10:05:00.000+01:00Great post - and sorry that the demons at Demon ha...Great post - and sorry that the demons at Demon have mucked you around.
