Internets!
So the BT engineer who arrived Friday said that the builders who gutted and re-built our house didn't do any of the things they'd need to do in order for a phoneline to be hooked up, and as a result there's going to have to be some sort of dealings between the freeholder and BT to sort it out which may involve ripping up parts of the road and will certainly take ages.

Oh God it's good to have Internets back.

I've seen them leave a telesales company without phones for 3 weeks after an office move , and do everything to avoid sending an engineer out to a flakely broadband service - only to have the service fixed when a new line was order and the install engineer inisted on replacing the junction box due to corrision.
The list of course go on,, particularly is we add my ftaher stories from when he worked for ITV.
But at least you've got a backup plan - or found a backup option - and you could always implement rfc1149 to the flat across the road at a push ;-).
