Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, EnglandCracks me up that the main feature of BT’s internet provision currently being advertised is that it breaks!

nevynxxx (@nevynxxx) reported from Rawtenstall, England@virginmedia I understand your call centres are suffering, but 2 hours for text chat support and a phone line that 4 menu levels deep hangs up is not good enough. Massively annoyed and time wasted.
-
Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England@virginmedia when is someone going to ring us back after the failure to apply the package to our account we sorted on the phone yet still hasn’t changed or a manager ringing back to deal with the complaint. Shocking services but soon quick to mailing bills out!
-
Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England@virginmedia You haven’t applied the contract you sent out and the balance on our account is double the contract charge and your advice said pay in full to speak to someone if not it tough. And then said it would then be credited on the account. Your advisor are no help.

-
Sally O'Donnell (@SallyOdonnell) reported from Burnley, England@virginmedia Hi thank you however a good start would be you to know your client base. Some of us are just not tech savvy and being talked to like an idiot is not the way to win hearts and minds let alone customer loyalty. Felt very undermined and very disappointed.
-
Dave Gracey (@lamsom) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the phone, I can travel to different areas and get 4 bars on my phone and it works no problem, the problem is in the area I live.The reception always used to be fine but for quite some time now it’s been awful, I currently have one bar.
-

-
Will_BRFC.1875 (@WillBr1875) reported from Great Harwood, England@virginmedia There isn't anything that could help with the problem because I don't fully understand what everything is or means etc It could do with a technician to have a look, something similar as happened before and you sent a technician out
-
