Bob Pullen says It will take some time

As Bob has already stated, the PN staff have far more pressing duties to perform in supprt of their customers. Apart from the incredibly small percentage of readers of this thread, the other PN customers, myself included, couldn't care less & most probably won't notice any difference.

Are customers still being moved on to the new network?

Yes, couple of thousand done last week I believe. Not everybody is in a position whereby they can be moved yet and it's going to take months before everybody is across.

Thanks Bob. So that roughly equates to 100,000 per annum, 700,000 members?........................roughly 7 years to complete. Be patient happy readers!!  Grin

Assuming the same rate of transition then yes Tongue
Needless to say, it's not going to take that long.

Exactly , Ok it may make no real difference to many ,, But then is it just to allow for more free PN customers ? or will the new network be an improvement over the present network ?
If there is a imrovement in network performance IE less slow downs due to capacity issues ,several posts about that around .
its not a unreasonable request to ask for some idea of timescale  Huh
