When i have been connected, to the poor speed one, will possibilities then open up to get what everyone else has got on the road? Only reason i ask is because the new build immediately next door, has been lived in for a while now and they have the poor speed version and it still only offers the poor one to them, is there any chance that despite the neighbours and across the road having access to fibre, i may not have that access for whatever reason?

Hard to say without looking at the site information. It’s rare that a new build wouldn’t be hooked up with at least FTTC (which should result in speeds of 24mbps as a minimum). Most sites these days are hooked up with FTTP (which is speeds of up to 300mbps).

Best thing you can do is contact BT and ask them about the deployment plan for your home – what will the speeds be both short, medium and long term. There are plans for basically every home.

Bloody BT.. should have to lay fibre right into any new build as a matter of course.

Actually bloody government not insisting on it.

So this is actually down to the site developer requesting internet access from an ISP. If they choose BT (and BT actually offer free FTTP to sites above 30 homes, so it’s in their interest), then Openreach start providing the infrastructure. As with everything, these things have lead times, and often liaising with the developer is the hardest part.

What the government does insist on is overall coverage of superfast broadband availability based on a fixed number of homes on a certain date. BT does meet these commitments. OFCOM also have minimum service level agreements with BT, these are also met otherwise BT get significant fines.

Can I just ask, I’m assuming it’s a new build that you’ve moved into? I actually work for BT (Openreach), new builds are often pretty horrendous liaising with the developers to get internet available on the move in date.

You work for them?….. please fix it for me

 

Yes it is a new build but it is only offering the plop speed, houses either side of the new build and also directly across the road, can get 100 meg guaranteed speed fibre, do you know how i sort it?

I’m a finance manager there unfortunately, if I was an engineer I’d bump it up the queue and come over. 😉

Me and my team organise the budget for one of the sectors of Openreach (fibre delivery being one of the key components!). Without looking at your site on our systems, it sounds as though your street is hooked up to the exchange via a PON or cabinet, which is good news, but the fibre at the moment for your house only reaches the curtilage, which is basically the closest point to a premise we can get prior to the customer putting in an order for internet. Once this order has come in, an engineer (eventually) will come and connect your house up from the curtilage.

As it’s a new build, depending on the distance from the existing infrastructure, they may need to install another cabinet or additional PON technologies closer to your house. This may be why you’re facing a month wait!

What i want to no is was the slot goig to do what it did regardless of steak i.e you think oh i might raise because the bonus hasnt come in then you decide not to and it bonuses next spin. Would the bonus still have came in if you raised ?

Or another example if you get a first spin bonus would that of happend regardless of the steak ?

The easy answer is no. And this isn’t because stake affects the RTP in any way, because it doesn’t, but merely because a spin outcome is generated randomly based on the exact moment you press spin. The server is constantly generating new tickets, and when you click spin, that’s the ticket you get, in that moment. So by taking the time to change the stake, it wouldn’t have resulted in the same outcome.

So I’d have to imagine, if you were to click spin at the exact same time on 10p and £2, the % return should be the same. Any experts, correct me if I’m wrong here, but certainly this is how land-based slots in casinos work.

I can sympathise with you on this one – I gave this one a really good blast a while back, hundreds of spins. Don’t think I managed to get a single bonus. I did get like an 80x piggy bank though, think I left at that point!

Stake certainly has no effect on outcome, even if it feels that way!

Please! Duplicate moan threads really grate on me. I’m getting tired of pointing people to an already existing thread on the same topic!

Great advice bud, don’t feel like you’re annoying anyone with this post because you aren’t. And you never know, this could save a life.

Sorry to hear what you’ve gone through.

Honestly, I’d have to score myself an 8. However, there are some caveats. The only one I haven’t done in that list is the “illegal acts” item. I’ve never stolen money, sold things without permission etc. to fund gambling, and I never will.

“Have you needed to gamble with more and more money to get the amount of excitement you want” – going back to when I was younger, yes, I guess. I used to spend a lot less, but that has more down to an increase with what money I have available. I can play 50p stakes and I can play £5 stakes, but they’re both enjoyable to me. I select my stake based on what my deposit is/what I can afford for the session.

The risked relationships one is also an interesting one. I spent £20 on slots in the casino while one of my ex girlfriends was with me and she thought that was a problem which resulted in an argument… it certainly wasn’t, and I don’t think that should qualify towards a “problem gambling” criteria as that’s down to external perception, which would vary significantly depending on the person.

So somewhere between 6 and 8 for me. Somewhat in-line with what I was expecting.

Come on guys… we’ve literally got a hundred threads on this – can we just stick them all into a single WWTBAM rage thread?!
