if my 3G 'dongle' works OK

Headline of the Express & Star tomorrow - Sandwell Councillor spends 3 grand on penis extension.

I believe they do that sort of thing a lot cheaper in Thailand.

You would know wonko, I've always thought of you as a bit of a Gary Glitter... Or is that rhyming slang?

Anyway, the bleedin' dongle don't work, and 3g are totally f*@?ing useless. And that is being generous to them. My advice to anyone is give them a very wide body swerve.

That was below the belt Bob ... get it? Below the belt? Never mind.

Got as friend who's been in hospital for 4 months (long story but you wouldn't believe the damage you can do to yourself by standing up underneath a shelf) and he's been keeping in touch with the outside world with a 3 mobile dongle. I was thinking of getting one myself for when I'm out and about.

Mine works ok at home, but not abroad and the ridiculously titled 'help' line seems to be based in downtown Bangalore or something.

Sorry to hear about your dongle mate. Dont know if you are keeping upto date with local news but it seems the local tories, laughing refferred to as 'the opposition' are threatening to sue us labour Councillors for denying them their Human rights ,if I was some where warm and relaxing I would seek asylum just in case?

I tried Three when they first started operating in England and I wasn't impressed. The phone was huge and the signal was crap, even when it roamed onto O2 when I was outside of a Three area. The customer services was a joke - the same handful of people in Bangalore, we were virtually on first name terms.

That said, Orange have outsourced most of their customer services to India now and it's gone right down the pan.
