According to a report in Silicon.com, NSL, a network systems
consultancy based in Edinburgh, is preparing to sue BT over its
failure to deliver its wholesale ISP product, ISPNet with 99.9%
reliability, the service level that NSL says was promised by
BT.
NSL ordered 50 lines this year but alleges a five-month delay by
BT in delivery followed by continuous connection problems with the
lines, making its ISP business plan unworkable.
Silicon.com says that NSL is planning to sue early next year
with a view to recovering the cost of its investment and seven
months' lost ISP-revenue.
