@treysis @noIPv6 @omnomis @virginmedia @tschaeferm @adam_as61 Nah, @AskCiti always used to be the only way to get competent customer service. At one point I almost took to using them first without even bothering to go through the proper channels first.

@virginmedia The worst bit you get one letter on 6th Nov saying your case is being investigated & apologising for taking 8 weeks to sort, two days later the case is closed as I didn’t reply to a letter 4 weeks earlier I never received!!!!

@virginmedia I spoke to the team, they will arrange a repayment, my issue is that when you want the money, even if it's on the wrong day, you get it instantly, when I demand a refund it's 4-5 business days and that means I incur charges due to your mistake

@virginmedia All mail has been either ignored or responded to with no suitable advice for my issue. Telephone - no help. I'm not talking about hanging up after 5 or 10 minutes. Even well over an hour of waiting doesn't help. Twitter - no help. It goes in One Month (19/02/2021). Court it is.
