I now have a bouncy barking, over excited bearded collie jumping about besides me wanting to know what the big papery parcel is and whether it's rippable.

Back to my desk and redial - go through the menu options (saying the nature of the problem loudly and clearly when asked, but having to do it three fucking times because Carrot times his barks to drown out my words) listen to the on-hold music for 5 mins and then: another fucking knock at the door. Neighbour back already, wanting his parcel.

Is it Talkmobile, by any chance?

I had problems getting into my account this morning and ended up having to reset my password.
It's working OK now, but they have been messing around with the website and didn't post a warning to the effect that problems might ensue.
