[SOLVED] Concerns over Cat6 install

Hi, was looking for some advice on a cabling job we had completed in our office. Its cat6 (well they used cat6 faceplates and cable). I've posted an image at:

Of about 30 points, 3 don't work at all (fail on even my cheap continuity tester). I'm guessing these have wires out at the back of the faceplates. The others allow connection over the network but having looked at how they've been terminated and from what I've seen before elsewhere it doesn't look good/right to me.

We use a lot of high end IT equipment and I'm worried that giga-bit ethernet will not run over this. Would appreciate an opinion on how good/bad it looks from limited info I can give before I get them back and before I pay for whats been done.

many thanks.
