This disease is the second leading cause of cancer death in US women. Since this is an issue that affects all of us, this October we are working with the National Breast Cancer Foundation® to help make a difference in the fight against breast cancer.

According to experts, early detection is still the best and most effective defense against this disease. When breast cancer is found early, in the localized stage, the 5 year survival rate is 98%. The best ways to be proactive are self breast exams, clinical exams with your doctors, your clinical breast exams and mammograms based on your age and health history.

The best way to fight breast cancer is to have a plan that helps you detect the disease in its early stages. Create your Early Detection Plan at www.earlydetectionplan.org to receive reminders to do breast self-exams, and schedule your clinical breast exams and mammograms based on your age and health history.

How you can help make a difference

This October, we are donating $1 from every purchase to the National Breast Cancer Foundation to provide help and inspire hope to those affected by breast cancer through early detection, education, and support services. So with each ink and toner order that you place with us, know that you helped us support NBCF. You can do your part to contribute towards increasing awareness and ultimately saving lives.

That's why our campaign slogan is Pink Doesn't Yield, It Survives!"

In the effort to provide support and empowerment, CompAndSave.com will not only donate money to NBCF through transactions made on their website, they will also donate $1 for every new "Like" they receive on the company's Facebook Page and for every re-tweet of "Supporting the National Breast Cancer Foundation (R) @compandsave - Pink doesn't yield, #pinksurvives" on Twitter.

"We know that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but we don't want to stop there," said Andrew Yeung. "We needed a way to continue bringing awareness and support for those who are affected by breast cancer. That's the purpose of the free t-shirts and wristbands."

Their ultimate goal is to donate at least $10,000 to NBCF by the end of October and they're using a variety of different online presence to achieve that goal.

Just think about it, with 3D printing we can create actual objects just at the touch of a button! From healthcare applications where lives could be saved to easing everyday functions of life – the possibilities are endless!

 Perhaps we will have edible objects that are created using syringes containing actual food. Maybe one day bio-printing will help replicate human tissues and organs. Perhaps one day you and I could create things we need right at home without even having to head to the store!

Here are some fun and amazing facts about 3D printing that you may be unaware of:

Whereas regular printing prints using ink, 3D printers create objects using plastics or polymers, glass or metal to create objects from a 3D design that are very close to the original object sought to be created, though the functionality may be limited as of now.

Just recently, NASA used 3D printing for a powerful rocket engine check. According to Chris Singer, director of the Engineering Directorate at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville Ala, the successful application of the 3D printed rocket injector helps to bring the organization closer to actually reducing the cost of flight hardware. Amazingly, 3D printing using moon-dust is also currently being worked on.

There is a clothing line called N12 Bikini that is created from 3D printing technology. The clothing is made from Nylon 12 and created entirely with the help of 3D printing. The design is created after scanning the body so that the fit is perfect. The 'fabric' is created using small connected circles that conform to the shape of the wearer.

The applications of 3D printing for healthcare can be many and amazing; even lifesaving. It is possible to use a 3D printer along with other screening protocols to create a model of a tumor so that surgeons know what to expect before they even start to operate. It is also possible that 3D printing could help create artificial organs; for instance, it can help to correct deformed limbs. Medical specialist in Belgium actually created a titanium jawbone for an 83 year old woman using 3D printing.

Experts also suggest that the technology could help create new defense systems or weapons so small that they are nearly impossible to detect.

3D printers are fueling the Maker revolution of designers, inventors and creators. With the help of advanced and super-fast prototype creation, the time taken is reduced and the number of prototypes created increases. In short it has become easier for more people to translate an idea into reality; into an actual object. According to experts, 3D printing is set to revolutionize manufacturing processes and could result in dramatic price changes because big supply chains would be rendered redundant.

3D printers are already being used in schools and in future have the potential to turn into even more potent educational tools. 3D modeling tools such as Google Sketchup are already a part of some curriculum. Kids will be learning with the help of advanced 3D objects and also creating them in the very near future.

3D printed components are now being used for different types of transportation. British fighter jets have been flown using components crafted by 3D printing technology. Wing Commander Andy Green used 3D printed components, in this case a titanium steering wheel for the Bloodhound SSC in his bid to break the world land speed record.

Car manufacturer Honda has enabled people to print out a concept car prototype – 3D printable models of the car are available at the website Thingiverse is the place to head to, if you want to learn and see more of the 3D printing community. This is a community that encourages people to make and remix 3D things, helping others discover, create, participate, and share.

In the foreseeable future, 3D printers will be a part of our everyday lives; experts predict that this will be a major technological driving force in the future. 3D printed art, and 3D printed meat are already a reality. The amazing world of 3D technology keeps evolving by the minute. Keep yourself informed of what else could become our reality in days to come.

They've had a glorious few months of enjoying the summer, playing, taking holidays and trips, spending time doing things they enjoy, following no schedules, with no studies to do or classes to attend. Restoring the mindset to waking up early, following timetables, getting into a regular study schedule and home work every day can be tough – for kids as well as parents. Here are some tips to help smooth the process:

Get kids involved in back to school shopping

This will serve a dual purpose! Not only will a child get into the right frame of mind to go back to school, he or she will also feel a spark of excitement about using new school books, clothes, stationery and other back to school items. You can let your child participate in the decisions and choices when you make all those purchases.

Get back on schedule

Don't wait till the day before school starts to restore school schedules. Do this a few days in advance. Start enforcing bedtimes and wake up times. Ensure that meals are served at the times they would be served in school, and revert to other school night rules about the amount of TV viewing permitted, video game allowances, no late nights, and so on. This will help your child ease into the school mindset.

Wean them off technology

Gradually lessen the amount of TV time permitted, and limit or taper off the amount of time spent playing videos games. Consider putting away the gaming console, joy stick, tablet or whichever electronic device your child seems to spend too much time on for a while. But be careful you do this in a way that doesn't spark a revolt. Help your child reconnect with school friends – this will help them recall the good times that he or she has enjoyed in school and will help divert their attention from those pesky electronics. In fact have a back to school party!

Have a party

Have a party and let your child get the idea that going back to school is something to celebrate and enjoy. Involve a few close friends, particularly children who have been close to him or her in school this past year. Consider having a little theme for the party and just ensure that everyone is having a good time. This will draw your their attention to the more positive aspects of school and help him or her recall some of the good times they had in school.

Start studying in small installments

It may also be a good idea to start with a few lessons at home – introduce your child to new concepts and subjects in an informal, familiar and non-threatening home setting. Get them interested in their school's course material so that they feel less trepidation about starting studies afresh. It will also give their confidence a boost if they are a little familiar with their study books when the teachers start giving lectures on them.

Set goals

Talk about the coming academic year and find out what your child is apprehensive about. Offer reassurance and bolster their belief in their abilities. Also, speak about goals for the coming school year such as study schedules, grades and offer the promise of rewards when those goals are achieved over the coming year.

Help your child ease into their school routine with the help of these tips – it'll make things easier for them and you!

These items include school and college supplies such as text books, stationery, and electronics and so on. Let's look at some back to school tips that will help you save on your back to school expenditure:

Make a list

Every savvy shopper will tell you the importance of making a list and then sticking to it. Start a list and keep adding new things so that you have a comprehensive list when you start to shop. This is the best way to keep track of the things you need.

Shop summer sales

Space out your shopping to coincide with sales. Don't buy everything at once; buy items as and when they go on sale. This is particularly true for clothes; shopping on sale items can make a huge difference to your budget. So keep an eye on online promotions as well as the retail outlets you visit regularly.

Shop online

Online stores typically have a central warehousing facility rather than fancy bricks and mortar retail outlets. Since operating costs are low and online stores are able to source items directly from manufacturers, they are able to pass on these price benefits to customers. Take advantage of lower prices as well as discounts and special offers that online stores provide. There are lots of back to school discount offers you can currently take advantage of so don't miss out.

Check online buzz

Check published user reviews for products as well as online shops. See what users say on review sites, like Yelp, Reseller Ratings, and CNET before deciding what to buy and whom to buy it from.

Compare prices

Always compare prices before buying. The internet gives you the convenience of being able to check out many stores simultaneously. So shop around and check to see who's giving you the best value for your money and then decide who gets you as a customer.

Save more

Since stationery, and school and college supplies are some of the biggest back-to-school expenditures you're likely make, we thought we'd give you a helping hand with this special back to school offer we're running for August:

You can add quirky designs to a bag, put a funny personalized message on your t-shirt, monogram your pillow case, create a craft project with your kids for school – the possibilities are so many! Let's look at how you can print on fabrics such as cotton and silk right at home, using an inkjet printer.

Printing on fabric – a few pointers

Pick your fabric – experts recommend pure cotton or pure silk because these fabrics are better to print on. It is best to use white or a light colored fabric for best results.Use color fast printer ink (pigment based inks are best) to do your fabric printing to prevent the ink from running and to retain your print results for longer. Also, ensure that your printer is not the sort that expressly forbids fabric printing check your user manual for more details). Typically inkjets will print on fabric whereas few laser printers may be able to do this.

Printing on fabric – things you will need

Inkjet printer with ink cartridges that are not depleted or exhausted

Cotton or silk cloth fabric

Card, printing paper, freezer paper

Lightweight bonding spray adhesive and an iron (if you plan to use card or printing paper)

Scissors

Images, designs, graphics or slogans that you want to print on your cloth (ensure that these are properly formatted and sized)

Prep or stabilize the fabric

The first thing to realize is that you can't just put any fabric into the printer tray as you would do with the paper. If you do this, it may jam the printer. You could use pre-treated fabrics that are suitable for printing – these fabrics are backed with rigid materials that make them stiff enough to run through a printer.
Here are a few techniques you can use to stabilize the fabric first, and make it stiff enough to run through the printer:

Use regular printer paper or stiffer, card paper: cut your fabric to the same size as your sheet of paper, and then iron these together. Spray the paper with adhesive – do this outside or put a protective cover over your workspace to prevent the adhesive getting everywhere. Pay particular attention to the edges; you don't want the paper and fabric to separate when passing through the printer. Now paste the fabric and paper together.

You can also use freezer paper to do this. You don't need glue for this, simply ironing the two together – the plastic side (the shiny side is the plastic side) facing the fabric – will do the trick

If your printer lets you print on a roll of paper (as opposed to sheets from the feeder tray) then your options increase significantly – you can print banners with messages and so on.

Print on your prepped fabric

Once you pick out a design, photo, graphic, or message, make sure that you crop and edited the image properly for the size or dimension of your prepared fabric. Trim any loose threads you find and then insert your prepped fabric into your printer. Print as usual. It's recommended that you use the best or highest quality printout mode from the settings – draft or regular quality printing will not last as long. Let the printout dry properly, then peel the paper backing away from the fabric and you're good to go!

So as you can see from these simple steps above, it isn't really difficult to print on fabric at home – just follow the simple steps listed above and keep those pointers in mind. This will help you create unique home furnishings, let you personalize clothing and other DIY products for the home, school or elsewhere.

And if you think a project such as printing on fabric is going to use up too much ink, worry not! We make it possible for you to save up to 80% on your printer cartridge purchases.

The printer could cost something in the region of $50 but buying the cartridge could actually cost you more! This is a clever thing that printer manufacturers do; they price the printer low, knowing that by doing so the printer is an easy purchase. But, this also makes the buyer commit to future cartridge purchases.

Obviously you want to be able to bring down that recurring cost of printer cartridges by not only finding the right supplier, but also buying the kind of printer that uses the least amount of ink in the first place. Here are some pointers to keep in mind about printers in general and cartridges in particular:

Laser over ink jet

The fact is, laser printer cartridges are more economical to use, they last longer and turn out to be more affordable. Inkjet printers typically use more ink than lasers, which uses a less amount of toner compared to how much ink an inkjet uses. According to analysts, laser printers yield better printing cost ratios per cartridge than do inkjet printers. However, the printer itself typically costs more than an inkjet printer so it follows that you have to consider your own printing needs before deciding.

What are your printing requirements?

Consider how much printing you're going to do. Is the printer for the home or for an office? If it's for the office, is it to be the home office with few printing requirements or a medium size setup with a lot of printing to do? If you require high volumes of printing you need to consider a laser printer – a bigger initial investment but lower recurring costs. If you need to print low volumes and occasionally, ink jets would be a better bet – an economical initial purchase and lower recurring costs not because of cheaper cartridges but because of low print volumes.

If you print about a 100 pages a week, pick a higher end machine that has a larger capacity cartridge, which will not need refilling as frequently.

Other factors to consider

Your print settings are something else to consider; unless you need a formal printout, use draft settings. Higher print resolutions use more ink or toner so the cartridge last for a shorter duration.

Finding affordable ink and toner cartridges is another factor to consider; it goes without saying that compatible cartridges are way more economical to use than branded cartridges.

It's no secret that ink and toner cartridges cost a lot more than their compliment. It's called the "loss leader model," and this is how companies profit. Cheaper the printer, the more expensive the cartridge. Purchasing re-manufactured printer cartridges is considered the best way to save without reducing your print load. But why are so many consumers feeling reluctant to purchase a recycled product?

The answer to this question is tied to customers not knowing or understanding the process. Let's review how recycled cartridges are processed and crush your inhibitions. There are minor differences in how ink and toner are re-assembled for use. However, the steps below will give you a clear understand of this diligent process.

The Re-Manufacturing Process

Raw materials, such as the electrical circuits for the ink and the drums for the toner, are inspected to verify their quality.

All the components are cleaned and prepared to be filled with new ink or toner. This kicks-off of the actual recycling process. The cartridges go through sorting and grading and only the premium cartridges are used to guarantee optimal performance. Components are then disassembled and recycled. The disassembled toner cartridges are cleaned through an automated machine that splits the toner hopper which is where the toner is stored.

The cartridges are then filled with new ink or toner by an automated filling machine and then sealed to prevent any leakage.

Each cartridge is tested by highly trained quality control professional to ensure that they perform well. Each toner hopper is filled with new toner by an automated machine that precisely weighs the amount of ink or toner within the cartridge. There's usually more than one test before any shipment leaves the facility.

The cartridges are now packaged and cleaned while the hopper is also cleaned and sealed by an automated machine.

With the guidance of industry standards, each ink and toner cartridge is tested again to guarantee performance and all other components are now re-assembled with more than 70% of the components being new materials.

Quality Control experts perform routine inspection before the re-manufactured ink and toner is made available to the public for consumer use.

Companies, such as Compandsave.com, implement this very same process in re-manufacturing their cartridges. In following this method, they emphasize on the notion that the compatible brand is just as good as the genuine brand. The only remaining difference is the cost.

Entire libraries now fit neatly into an eBook reader and then into our bags or pockets; they travel with us wherever we go.

However, there is one thing that these ingenious minds seem to have been slow to invent – a portable printer. A small, pocket size printer that goes wherever you do and prints on the go – this isn't something that has yet gained currency.

What is a pocket size printer?

Theoretically, this is a small, hand held device that lets you print on the go, whenever you want. Either your insert paper through an opening or put it down on to the paper – any size of paper –it prints documents or images. Sounds great doesn't it? It does sound great, so why don't we see this nifty little thing online and in all the shops?

The pocket printer for images

There is this type of pocket printer right now, but it is limited in terms of functionality. This isn't a printer in every sense of the word; it's just an image printer. As of now you can buy a product such as this LG PoPo portable mobile photo printer that lets you print images on the go.

As you can see from the link in the last paragraph above, the LG Pocket Pinter does at least some of what you want a pocket printer to do. This one lets you print pictures on the go, but this particular type of printer is limited by the fact that only very small printouts can be printed. The printer receives print commands via Bluetooth and prints pictures; so this is a printer that is used chiefly for image printouts. This type of portable printer is ink-less and requires ZINK photo paper and considering that it delivers rather low returns in terms of range of utility,this printer is quite expensive priced at approximately $140-$170, depending on where you buy it.

What about a pocket printer for printing documents?

The type of printer that rolls on to a page and prints is still some way off. This device is still in the development stages and is likely to see the light of day only sometime in the future. What is being envisaged now is a just a printer head without the rest of the cumbersome printer. So here we're talking about a print head that moves over paper, perhaps on a set of wheels or moves as the hand guides it. We're talking about a pocket printer that prints documents of any size; not limited by the size of the paper such as the Mini Mobile Robotic Printer.

This device will work on any type of paper and use a standard ink cartridge that will print up to a 1,000 pages per cartridge. This printer will run on its inbuilt battery that can last for up to an hour and be recharged via a USB cable. It will print wirelessly from desk top computers, phones, tablets or other devices that may be invented by that time.

When will we see a genuine pocket printer?

Well at this time, ZUtA Labs in Israel are working on a device such as this and are seeking backers for their project. So it does seem as though a multifunction pocket printer that does everything and goes everywhere will actually be seen in markets sometime soon; perhaps as soon as next year, according to some estimates.

Regardless of how big or small of an organization you have, the activities of that organization will create greenhouse emissions because of the energy expended and the products/raw materials consumed in manufacture or services.

The environmental cost of printing

One of the things that increase your carbon footprint is the amount of printing you do in the office – circulars, memos, newsletters, correspondence, bills, invoices, records, legal documents – the list goes on. It isn't just the paper you use – you are probably socially and environmentally aware enough to print only what is really required.

But, what about ink cartridges? Do you know how much it costs the earth for each cartridge to be made? The plastic raw material, the ink and the packaging material, to say nothing of the energy consumed in manufacturing that one cartridge is very considerable.

Also, have you given a thought to discarded cartridges – where do they end up when they are exhausted? Well typically, you toss that empty ink cartridge into the trash after you're done with it. Via your garbage it reaches the landfill and stays there for a really, really long time, in the meanwhile polluting soil as well as waterways.

An estimated 350 million used ink cartridges end up in landfills every year – this is a staggering amount. And here's something else that is staggering: it will probably take a thousand years for that cartridge to decompose!

Is this the only thing you can do with a used cartridge? Can you do anything to make your printing more environmentally friendly?

Recycle your ink cartridges

It is thought that more than 70% of all used ink cartridges are simply thrown away, without a thought to where they go and what will happen to them. However, you can help to make a difference. Instead of tossing the used cartridges into your garbage, you can recycle them. Many manufacturers offer recycling facilities – all you have to do is drop off the used cartridges at specified locations or ship them to the specified address.

Another option is to buy re-manufactured ink cartridges (learn more about environment friendly ink cartridges). It is possible to reuse one cartridge 2 to 3 times by refilling it. This can help to keep several pounds of waste out of landfills each time you use a re-manufactured ink cartridge and will also help save a significant amount of energy and oil.

This can, in the end, help to make your business more environmentally friendly. This helps lower your carbon foot print and helps you make that little extra effort to make your business greener and more sustainable. This is beneficial to your community and to the environment because your business is contributing much less to environment pollution. Plus you have the satisfaction of knowing that you worked towards fulfilling your corporate social responsibility at least to some extent.

OEM cartridges) or compatible cartridges? How does a compatible or re-manufactured ink or toner cartridge compare with its OEM (brand name) counterpart with regards to quality, cost, and results? These questions can be very confusing to many who may not understand the process and make it difficult to decide.

Compatible ink cartridges can damage your printer?

Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) warn consumers against buying compatible ink and toner cartridges, claiming that "fake" cartridges can damage the printer and are poor in quality. They insist on only using "genuine" cartridges since they are made specifically for a given printer's make and model. In fact, compatible cartridges are also made to suit the specifications of the same printers, hence the name "compatible." Ultimately, they are as safe to sue as any brand name cartridge.

Recycled cartridges offer the same printing quality?

Since compatible toner and ink cartridges are made to fit the specifications of their complementary printers, the results are parallel with the OEM brands. Buyers are particularly concerned about the print quality of re-manufactured cartridges, because they are made from recycled material. However, when cartridges are re-manufactured, each part is examined for integrity before it is reused. As long as you buy from highly reputed sellers; such as CompAndSave.com, the print quality and results will be as good as a brand name printer cartridge.

OEM cartridges vs. Compatible cartridges: Cost

The main difference between OEM and compatible cartridges is cost. You can save up to 90% if you purchase a re-manufactured brand rather than the brand name one.
Merchants often price their printers low, while inflating the price of their cartridges. As a result, the main source of profit for many equipment manufacturers is the cartridges and not the printer itself.

Compatible Cartridges don't void Printer Warranty!

Another concern people have about using compatibles is the voiding of the printer warranty. There is the misconception that if you don't use brand name cartridges, the printer warranty will be voided. However, The Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act, which governs warranties on consumer products, mandates that sellers of consumer goods who make service contracts on their products are prohibited under this act from disclaiming or limiting implied warranties. There are exceptions to the law, but in general an original equipment manufacturer cannot refuse to honor the warranty simply because the buyer chose to use it with a compatible brand.

Save environment & Save on Ink

Since OEM cartridges are made using brand new parts, this has a significant environmental impact in terms of raw materials and energy used in the manufacturing process. On the other hand, generic cartridges are made by recycling used or exhausted toner or ink cartridges. The entire re-manufacturing process is oriented towards preventing used cartridges from polluting landfills and creating an environmental hazard. Therefore, using re-manufactured cartridges has a positive impact on the environment by reducing contamination.

So, in regards to quality, cost efficiency, and environmental impact, it makes more sense to use compatible ink cartridges rather than their brand name counterparts.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - Gas restoration order is listed below. Officials caution customers to utilize only trained authorized personnel to work with natural gas transmission lines, meters and associated equipment currently dysfunctional because of yesterday's main gas line explosion in eastern Lee County.
The TECO People's Gas line has been repaired, after being damaged by a construction vehicle working on the expansion of Colonial Boulevard near SR 82. Approximately 6,500 customers lost their gas connection, and company representatives say it could take up to a week to get all service restored.
As in any emergency, restoration of the utility will occur in order of priority with the largest and most critical customers, such as hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities and emergency service facilities, first.
Commercial customers, such as hotels and restaurants will be next, and residential customers will be third. If a less critical customers is on the same line as a critical facility, then their service may be restored more quickly (similar to what happens in restoring power following a hurricane).
A key factor in the service restoration is making sure that customers get in touch with TECO People's Gas as quickly as possible, and maintain contact. Each customer must be contacted twice by TECO People's Gas before service can be restored.
Customers are advised by TECO People's Gas to insure safety by not turning off the gas at the meter. They may turn off gas to specific appliances using the local valve located near the appliance. More information is available at www.peoplesgas.com and by calling 1-877-832-6747.
Customers should enact their emergency plan substituting another energy source for their gas system, as they would in a natural emergency.

ASA slaps down BT over 'misleading' broadband claims
Those toothless tigers gummy stripy cats at the Advertising Standards Agency have given BT a talking to over "misleading" claims about overall broadband speeds, outpacing packages from both Sky and TalkTalk. The Brit telco made an ad headed "Official", claiming it could "Superpower your broadband". It contained a cartoon man …
Locking the stable door
Once again, the ASA bans an ad AFTER it's been shown to the public.
When is it going to implement pre-approval for all telco ads? The industry seems to be riven with persistent lies in advertising, and any sensible(*) supervisory organisation would have mandated pre-approval by now.
(*) Yes, yes, I know that the ASA has consistently shown itself not to be a sensible organisation...
Re: Locking the stable door
Unlimited broadband. "It's unlimited I tell you" apart from the, er, limits.
Still the Telco's are the inert bean counters who think sitting on their price cartels is all they have to do and who have ignored HD audio and don't try to compete on International tariffs, and have done nothing about the problem of increasing numbers of sales calls. They have only succeeded in training their customer's to discover they are very often better off using HD audio with services like FaceTime audio and going for the nearest WiFi connection. I now just leave the answer phone on and never answer my house phone because of the silent calls I get from Indian service centres (like for spam, the cost to them of calling and only connecting up with an call centre rep when one happens to be available is extremely low). They are only succeeding in hastening their own transformation into commodity utility Internet Service providers.
Re: Locking the stable door
"When is it going to implement pre-approval for all telco ads?" Pollachius
not a sensible organisation???
The ASA is about as useless as an organisation can get.
It's glaringly obvious that company's can say and do whatever they want in adverts and the only repercussion will be a letter from the ASA telling them off - all after the ad campaign has run it's course.
If the government wants to cut 'whitehall waste' then the ASA is the best place to start.
Chocolate Teapot
"The ASA is about as useless as an organisation can get. [..] If the government wants to cut 'whitehall waste' then the ASA is the best place to start."
The ASA is the advertising industry's self-regulatory organisation. On the plus side, this means that there's no "whitehall waste" going to fund it.
On the downside it also explains why it has absolutely no legislative power and is "about as useless as an organisation can get". In theory they can pass things on to the Office of Fair Trading or OFCOM. Whether this simply doesn't happen, or it does and the latter bodies do nothing, is unclear to me.
The ASA is a powerless waste of space
That is all
BSkyB makes one complaint about BT, and the ASA listens.
Thousands of us make complaints about BT, and the ASA does nothing.
Re: BSkyB makes one complaint about BT, and the ASA listens.
It really does help if your surname is Murdoch.
"He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!"
Has the ASA ever made an enforcement ruling while an ad was still in widespread use? If not, it's entirely a waste of space, especially if it cannot force repeat offenders (such as ISPs) to stop being naughty.
Who cares?
The whole thing is so flakey that data rates fluctuate virtually every day anyway.. I'd much rather they commit to protecting whats left of our privacy. I'd also love to see the profit breakdowns of peoples payments for service as opposed to what they get paid for selling data on us. If it was possible to function within society without any form of connection I'd seriously consider it.. They're all as bad as each other..
It seems you can basically make any claims you like in an advert, generate sales/revenue immediately, then worry about a slap on the wrist or a small fine from the ASA about a year later. Surely that's completely arse about face?
Unless you're going to impose such massive fines as a deterrent for blatently flouting the rules. Oh, not that either.
Re: Stupid
Why not ban them from advertising on the television for periods of time (Like 50 years)
How many times must the same drivel be peddled by ISP
Personally I am waiting for ronseal to become an ISP, no fuss, no mess, no bother, does exactly what it says on the tin.
Cat amongst pigeons
I recently had a nice BT Openreach man come to install my Sky fibre broadband. He was honest enough to let me know that I could expect up to 40mb download and 10mb upload. In real terms it'll fluctuate between 35/38 and 7/10 after a couple of days. True to his word, that's what I got. The infrastructure all seems to be owned by BT and the engineers who come to install the line to your property seems to be owned by BT too. As an end user/consumer I don't really care who provides my service as long as I get what I pay for. AFAIK Sky are the only provider that don't traffic shape in any manner. That's why they get my business.
I'm just sayin'
Re: Cat amongst pigeons
I had a very similar experience too.
Open Reach came, installed new lines around my house, told me what to expect and left. True to their word i received the service they said i would and sky claim to not traffic shape too which is a bonus on top of the discounted BB as i'm a tv customer.
BT at it yet again
Add this latest one:
* BT has "better performance" for up to 16Mb customers than Sky or TalkTalk
(from http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/12/04/asa_bt_bskyb/)
To this lot:
* fibre optic Infinity already available throughout Manchester
(from http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/11/13/bt_manchester_infinity_ad_slapped_by_asa/)
* Oh, no, fewer people are complaining than ever before
(From http://forums.theregister.co.uk/forum/1/2013/03/12/Kelly_Fiveash_BT_engineers_missed_appointments/)
* BT's "six-month free broadband"
(From http://forums.theregister.co.uk/forum/2/2013/01/16/bt_asa_ruling_line_rental/)
* No, we've never intercepted web traffic

* No, we've never had anything to do with DPI
(from http://forums.theregister.co.uk/forum/1/2013/01/16/bt_asa_ruling_line_rental/

(from http://forums.theregister.co.uk/forum/1/2013/01/16/bt_asa_ruling_line_rental/
Pitiful, really
I agree the ad is misleading, but the reasons for the objection are questionable! The performance of the companies over wifi? Errr, thats entirely down the router in use surely and nothing to do with the ISP, granted they give you a router but you could just buy a different one if they are otherwise the fastest. Personally if they are indeed faster when wired then i'd choose them and buy my own router (not that the BT wifi router is bad anyway, its far better than the Sky offering anyway).
Similarly connection speeds. These are dependent to some extent on the modem (again, buy a different one and you may see some difference) but mostly on the line itself and, when it goes bad, on the Openreach part of BT's schizophrenia – and quite possibly on them being hit over the head with a blunt ISP (assuming that their support people are competent).
Misrepresented advertised broadband speeds?
I refuse to believe it. Must be one of those April Fools stories.
Unlimited Broadband actually means limited to some extent that you can only find out by reviewing the products T's & C's that are buried in their website.
Fibre Broadband: actually means fibre to some cabinet down the street and coax to you house. if you have fibre to some cabinet and twisted pair to your house (FTTC) you can't call it fibre!
The ASA would never pre vet adverts as it would invite a severe beating from all concerned, as well as making them liable for any damages. At the moment they can try and claim to be on the side of the consumer. Like all national type agencies, they have an enviable ability to dodge scandal and controversy and deflect it to either the company concerned or the consumer.
New advertising campaign.
Simples. Just say "We're not Rupert".
every ISP except virgin uses BT's exact same network and any non BT engineer are probably still not allowed in any of BT's exchanges
New Revenue for the exchequer?
Its simple. Make the ASA a government body with powers to levy big fines and put that into reducing the deficit.
Ah of course the snag there is that the big business mates of the politicians might respond with a huge cut in the bribe - sorry I meant political donations - they make.
Party politics.... is there anything more corrupt?
The current system is laughable and shows just how empty worthless it is.
Re: New Revenue for the exchequer?
the ISP speed war is laughable, when BT setup its openworld ISP, it obviously gave itself 6x more wholesale broadband then any other ISP will ever have or need to buy
But we all know.....
....that BT stands for Bunch of T****rs
