![]() My e7even broadband connection wasn't working this morning. What was odd was I could 'ping' everywhere but no web pages or data transfer worked (even VPN!) Eventually got a page displayed from Ezee DSL saying that e7even could no longer provide service. Options were either wait until July 14th to connect to a different ISP (there was no explanation about whether or not you needed to get your MAC etc..) or sign up with Ezee DSL straight away (£15.99/month for 512k, other speeds available). I think this is a 12-month contract although they don't make it very clear! I was a bit wary in case Ezee were just e7even renamed and doing another scam but they claimed to be part of 186k (who, as far as I can tell used to be the telecoms part of Transco) and were wholesalers for Tiscali. Anyway I decided to risk it and payed up using Worldpay. Anybody know if these guys are genuine. My connection was working within seconds of paying - which surprised me a bit. |

Foot stamping and blaming others for your failure to do a little research before parting with your cash is not going to get it back. Seems like an expensive lesson, but I guess that is the way the terminally clue resistant learn. |

![]() Have to agree, tried many times to fix AOL problems for clients. My broadband worked fine on their PC's (was E7even) but AOL failed, up to 6 weeks and sometimes complete windows re-install to sort it out. E7even, Ofcom and Otelo cannot update as to whether e7even have gone bust 1. Can anyone confirm this? 2. Also does anyone know if it is illegal to withold MAC codes? I have client websites with E7even and now the domain names are unavailable so no websites. Can't even get to them to re-direct, therefore unhappy customers and my Company Name and Services tarnished again, thanks very much E7even HPC Solutions Limited |
