    @virginmedia I'm now waiting on a call from the retentions department (I missed one earlier)! I know exactly what they will say because I've spoken to them on a number of occasions...they will offer me a new contract & raise a complaint about the messing about you've given me!!!

    Alleluia @virginmedia Just taken one month to have most issues resolved. Feedback: less silos in customer service so they can see all issues and be more helpful.

    @virginmedia New contract Jul 31. Netflix completely broken, web throwing errors, and profile is showing an incorrect phone number that isn't mine. Called, used WhatsApp, zero help. Logged formal complaint and got a generic 28-day wait. Unacceptable customer service. Fix this.
