Same here. I did press one, but they hung up. I had a call last week from "Peter at BT Openreach" telling me my router had been reporting errors. I asked him if I could take him through security, and what was my name. He hung up pretty sharp.

That made me laugh more than it should have!

Surely you keep your omelette up to date with the latest frying pans and optional herbs and spices?

Just send a tracking number and wait for their response. Feel free to Hive-Mind your next reply...

I like that the web site came up with the standard cookie disclaimer... "We value your privacy."

Surely the type would be Fruit, as part of an assembly of Healthy in a project called Food?

Depending on how the front end is implemented, it is all too easy to delete vast chunks of data that suddenly become unrecoverable. An Access front end (used to) automatically carry out database operations such as delete without any logic. I had a customer hit Ctrl+A then delete and wipe out most of their billing data as the data on screen was pulled from a table rather than a view. It took about 4 weeks to recover most of their data. Understandably they weren't hugely happy with this, but the application was built fairly badly (before either my predecessor or I got our hands on the code.) The app was multi user with an MDB back end and an MDX (Access executable) front end. This kept the code hidden from the customer, but also meant we had to implement releases to update it. So - if the GUI hasn't been implemented properly then you may be just as quick building a new front end with the correct logic layer, and a suite of APIs in the background. Also... good luck!

Thanks for posting that. I just got a great deal on a Hyundai i10. :-D

That's some serious storage you got there; I remember my first PC had a 40MB hard drive and that was plenty. I also remember coding in "Machine Code" on my speccy. And yes, I'm aware this is starting to turn into the Monty Python 4 Yorkshiremen sketch[^]. :)
