Business owners be aware of resurfacing scam callers

Be aware of a man claiming to be a Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) or associated with, who is working on an anti-social behaviour campaign and selling advertising space in a good citizenship magazine. This magazine simply does not exist. We cannot name the company responsible for legal reasons. There are legitimate clubs that do actually exist throughout the UK and work hard to prevent anti-social behavioural issues.

The caller may also claim to work for or be associated with Police Community Clubs of Great Britain, which is a legitimate community initiative fundraising organisation.

These scammers constantly change their tactics and can be very convincing – don’t give them a penny! If in any doubt, contact Action Fraud : To report a fraud, call Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040 or use their online fraud reporting tool.

Hard Disk Shortage

Posted on April 2, 2012 by admin

Unfortunately, there continues to be a huge hard disk stock deficit throughout the globe. Thailand has been devastated by the worst floods in more than half a century. The country is a major producer of computer hard drives that has been making about 45% of the world’s supply. But production and the supply chain have been badly disrupted, and with fewer hard drives being produced, prices are going up. By the late part of 2012, production of hard drives should be back to normal. Our suppliers have yet to receive a due date for HDD replenishment and any disks available are very overpriced and hard to obtain.

Therefore, we advise our customers to hold off where necessary. But unfortunately, situations will arise where the dependency outweighs the cost of data loss and replacements must be sought. If this is the case then we will endeavour to supply any available stock throughout the UK as soon as possible. Please note that prices have hiked considerably of the past few weeks, and in some cases almost 700%.

Leased Line Prices Reduced

Posted on March 30, 2012 by admin

Endrick IT has reduced its leased line prices dramatically over the past few months. This price decrease is essentially due to more of Endrick IT’s suppliers all bidding for the line install work. This allows businesses to take advantage of big line bandwidth opportunities at low prices.

The standard leased line setup charge for most 3 to 5 year contracts is still £0. However, excess construction charges may still apply. About 1 in 5 leased line orders attract excess construction work. Sometimes this price can be amortised in the monthly fees. The line carriers do absorb some of the excess charges.

Leased line pricing will continue to fall so long as more line carriers become involved in the bidding process. There are a growing number of new suppliers yet to get involved in Endrick IT’s bidding system, but as leased lines continue to be ordered from Endrick IT more suppliers will be introduced to the system over the next few months.

Business owners can get a no-obligation online leased line or EFM quotation today by visiting Endrick IT’s leased line costs page: http://www.endrickit.com/leased-line.aspx

Ethernet First Mile (EFM) vs. Bonded ADSL

Posted on February 14, 2012 by admin

The question “Ethernet First Mile or Bonded ADSL” is still surfacing throughout the information technology world.

Installation Lead Time

Ethernet First Mile (EFM) and Bonded ADSL (Bonded Broadband) both use existing copper wire technology, this allows for quicker installation times compared with copper or fibre leased lines.  If copper wire currently exists from the local POP to your place of business, then you could have either one of these technologies installed within three to five weeks on average.  However, if your business already has existing active PTSN lines (phone lines) and an active ADSL subscription on these lines, then it is possible to bond these lines almost immediately allowing for a bandwidth increase without the extended wait. In addition to this, if you only have active PSTNs with no ADSL subscription, you could “Fast-track” an ADSL installation on each line required, enabling you to be up-and-running with Bonded ADSL within 48 hours.
