If most people on your exchange are down, then that would sound like an Openreach issue affecting many BB suppliers, of which BT is only one. They will be relying on information given to them by Openreach which can be limited and other suppliers such as Sky etc will be in the same boat. Grass is not always greener when there is a common denominator.

If you need a line for business, all companies will advise that you have a business line installed which then carries more weight with repair times and compensation.

Why would you have needed to wait in all day for them to call. The case manager is only going to discuss compensation with you. If your phone and broadband is fixed now then that will be all that is left to do.

Sorry but if you have a residential line then they will not compensate for loss of working from home. You would only get that with a business line. They will have a set calculator for the number of days you are down for. It will be worked out based on what your package is.
