[...] had such a President in Mauritius, we would not complain at having Internet connection being as slow as molasses. One dream of the Mauritian Government is to transform the Paradise Island into CyberIsland, but [...]

@Tushal – Good for you. I hope that was not a knee-jerk reaction and you understood that by “alternative” I meant “better alternative”. There would be no point moving to the crappier Nomad service, would there?

Now, if only more customers would do the same, Orange would eventually realise that they are doing something wrong and start fixing things.

It may look like I am repeating myself here. If you do not get the level of service that you agreed to, you must get out of the contract and find an alternative. A contract needs to be fair, so there is ALWAYS an exit for either party. As a last resort, a court will resolve any dispute (the judicial system being the ultimate referree). On the other hand, if you knew what you were getting into, then there is no reason for whining. (Even then, you can exit a contract if you can be arsed enough, which would not be the case if you were expecting things to be a certain way.)

The above applies to everything in life.

@Tushal – “Secondo, sending a technician?LoL.”

If they do not provide the level of service that you have been sold, why have you not cancelled your contract with them?

@Eddy, No I don’t agree.I am not an idiot.
Primo, I don’t know if they have a list of how many times a client has phoned them.
If my memory is still as good as before, during the year 2007 I made more than 100 calls to myT customer care for issues concerning slowness, livebox not connecting and each time I’m told the same lines again and again despite that they ask you your phone number first.

Secondo, sending a technician?LoL.

@Tushal – You are the idiot. She is doing her job, which requires her to ascertain that you have followed all the troubleshooting steps before she sends out a technician. Of course, all of us would like to skip all that and ask for a technician to be made available to us, but are you prepared to foot the call-out charge of said [knowledgeable] technician? I think not.
