I am like WTF. I promptly just ask back for my refund cuz i had signed up and paid from December, since they claim that University Crescent would get service by March.

    Flow's unkept promises makes it easier to throw my hard working money to C&W and their mediocre DSL service. Shame on Flow.
    You payed before you got the service?
    Weird.

    Yeah that is weird cause they don't sign you up unless they are sure service is in your area.

    It look so. But Pardy said, they would have Portmore ready by end of year. You think they would wire up portmore before finishing with St. Andrew?

    Flow don't know where to go... so them just drop one and two cables here and there. Saw them snooping in Clarendon... which caused C&W to do this rapid installation program. Haven't seen them in a while and guess what that mean? Yup....C&W moving so slow them going backwards

    Drove down to Sav yesterday....saw Flow vans all along the way there.

    Trust me - when you see Flow in the rural areas, don't bother to hold your breath for service. They are just running the backbone fiber cables. Them don't plan to distribute just yet.

    I did see them in Spanish Town once but that looks like it was a Site Visit. Haven't seen the trademark Burgundy Reels.

    Does anybody know if the reels are conduit only or conduit with fibre inside?

    Seeing something similar where I am. I'm on Shortwood Road, which had cables on the main road well over a year ago but it wasn't until a few months back that my complex, which is just off said main road, was wired. It was an additional month and a half after before they made a half-hearted, door-to-door sales pitch. I was eventually able to subscribe over the phone but had to wait on my installation date.

    It is what it and they'll get to my yard when they get here but I suspect any early price breaks we might have gotten from C&W won't be coming now. Their stranglehold on the [residential] broadband market seems as strong as it ever was and the promise of cheap bandwidth from Flow will hardly be enough to sway people who want Internet now.

    I hope it is as Arch_Angel says and the reason for this is because the company is focussing the bulk of its resources on Portmore, which I admit probably holds more potential in terms selling the triad of cable, phone and internet.
