Am using True Online and torrents are going at a normal rate.. Last month I had a scare when torrent speeds (browsing was faster) were down but this was at the same time when maintenance was being done. Things improved after 1week! Already orientated on the use of VPN but in the end in was not necessary.. There are a lot of public trackers that I cannot connect to (connection was closed by peer), but maybe that was the case before I got trouble.

Another interesting thing I found out on True's website is that with my standard 4MB package I have a data-limit of 540MB per hour..

Our bedroom is leaking on both sides of the sliding door. The husband of my friend's wife is a mechanic and he came to have a look.. According to him the sliding door should've been built on a 10cm high wall in order to prevent leaking and he recommended to do the job proper. Our landlord thought this was unreasonable and came with her own mechanic. This man could do it a lot cheaper by spraying silicone on the corners, also he could fix our leaking kitchen (we have a waterfall in our kitchen during a heavy rain) for just a fraction of our guy! He would do it all next week (weeks already passed since we complained), he never showed up.. Since then we only get apologies from our landlord!

We told the landlord that we would not give the next month's rent in order to pay for our mechanic to spray the silicone and fix some other problems in the house (the gate fell down). Landlord agreed on this. The mechanic also found that the protection bar of the bedroom was electric as the wires were faulty.. After spraying the silicone it is still leaking.

My heavily pregnant wife almost slipped on some water just now, lucky she could grab the wooden towel-rack (which is broken now), Our baby is almost born and the house we are living in is a complete mess! I am fed up and want to move out..

I know that getting your deposit money back from a rental contract is tricky, but what is my legal position if I want to break the contract based on the fact that our landlord is not providing a live-able environment?

I recommend New Way Diving, I enjoyed working for this divecenter very much! One of the smallest center on the island and a good atmosphere.. Small groups, small boat and a very early morning trips (before rush hour).

Chumphon Pinnacles is the best divesite Koh Tao has to offer and to really enjoy this site, decide to dive with a diveshop that avoids the peak hours and dives with a small boat.

Do you have the reference for that please? I cannot see any limits referenced to the True 4mbps 599THB/m plan?

Check the Terms & Conditions at the bottom of the page. It is well hidden and in Thai, but the reference to the Data Transfer Limit is English.. http://www.trueonlin...m/en/terms.aspx

I read on the True Online website that I have a Data Traffic Limitation of 540MB per hour with my 4MB Standard Package, I wouldn't mind a smaller limit to help True fight P2P clogging up the international bandwidth.. I do still experience higher speeds using a private tracker or when I am (accidentally) connected to a local peer! I don't see much future changing to another ISP as I expect them all to be equally bad.

Very disappointed in True Online as I decided on this ISP after reading articles on the internet about True using cache for torrents to keep open the international bandwidth.. Guess that using a VPN will be the best solution!

From what I quickly googled Sandvine throttling basically upsets the uploading, unless it is to a local peer. Maybe we should look for a localized tracker..

Using True Online the Pirate Bay is still there, too bad that public torrents seem to be dead!

It might actually be a problem with public trackers, as I just downloaded at full speed from a private tracker..

I use True 4MB and bittorrents are still slow, in fact new (well seeded) downloads don't start at all.

On http://wiki.vuze.com/w/Bad_ISPs True doesn't have an entry but the other ISP's are not appealing.

Hope this is something temporary and be back to normal soon!
