So I get a call from flow saying they're upping my speed to 25Mb/s for $50.00 more, starting on the 15th July. I said yeah ok, sounds like a plan.
Of course that never materialized, I was waiting on the bitches to charge me the extra $50, so that I could tell them how they mudda make them, and where they could take their service and shove it.
Low and behold I downloaded a 700mb movie yesterday and the damn thing took 3 minutes........yeah you read that right.
So I did the standard speed test using their server, which is a shit test btw, (how the fuck do you check your real speed using your own server as a benchmark?) then I did a test with a Russian server.
The Russian server was just 20Mb/s slower than what you see below. Yuh know That 1TB hd Price Smart have, is going to get bought and abused very soon, before then bitches catch on.
PS....please be advised, this thread does not require the posting of dick pics. |

Yuh could have them. For my part, Flow could go to Barbados, OR TO HELL, whichever is closer, Lock, stock and barrel, with they Cable tv, they internet and every DAMN thing else and all they piss poor customer service and smartman policies, AND STAY THERE!
How anybody who EVER dealt with flow fuh TV could want to do MORE business with them, is beyond me. I go stay with mih Blink. At least TSTT does TRY to satisfy any concerns i may have. |

Trini I hear yuh. For about 2 months earlier this year I was lucky to get a 1Mb/s from Flow, mind you this was with a 15Mb package.
Fucking thing stayed like that, and no amount of calling was doing shit. Just as I was about to tell them fuck off and go with Blink, the bitches stepped up their game. So far so good.
TSTT ain't bad, but that contract thing is a bitch, plus as usual TSTT digs out yuh eye for a frigging 2Mb connection. When I saw how much they wanted to charge for a 10meg I almost shit myself. Combine that with some asshole stealing cable and yuh out of service for at least a week, that shit used to drive me crazy.
cksamurai the people that own Flow are Bajans bro.  |

Man if you do your checks properly you'd realise that the speed test you used is one of the most used tests to c what your upload/download speeds are and it is quite accurate...in comparison to the US (as we caribbean ppl don't know any other place) most of the packages offered by the standard ISP are somewhat similar. Is only in places like Asia their ISP offer 1000Mbps Download service packes to domestic customers.
The average international domestic consumer (those who aren't tech savy) are offered standard packages such as 5Mbps Up/50Mbps Down.
What I can tell you is unless you're streaming videos/music on the net (like in Veetle.com) the average user doesn't really require/care for anything more advanced...why...they are only on the net for Facebook/Twitter/Porn.
So whilst I hear your greivance and in some respects agree with you...FLOW undertsands the market that they're dealing with and capitalizes on it bcus they have the monoply and quite simply some of we to damn stupid not to see otherwise.
As for TSTT I haven't done much research with their service or had much experience with it. But recently I had the experience of their Blink Turbo service and.....GEEZAS Christ...Iz d worse!
The day we as consumers can understand what we really getting for we money and exercise our consumer rights then and probably only then things can change. |
