Trudi Foster (@MsWhippet1) reported from St. Julians, Wales@virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.

Absolutely useless, on the phone tomorrow to cancel this **** completely.

Anathema🇵🇱🏴🏴 (@Dyslogix) reportedVirgin Media O2, you can **** off now tbh, I'll find a better provider, your app won't work properly, and your website is worse .... na I'll find a better provider. O2 was better till you virgin arwsebadgers bought it out, and **** you o2 for selling out.

Sam Greenland (@SprocketEtQuill) reportedThis week I’ve learnt a lesson. Resilience in AI Agents isn’t just about model provider Vs local hosting. This week @virginmedia accidentally cut my internet connection and it’ll be a week before they can fix it. I’m buying a 5G router so the baby monitors still work because that’s a safety concern! The router will also bring the Mac Mini back online so two of my three agents will be back. The third agent is on a laptop at work so they’re still up anyway. Resilience baked in was a good strategy, but it will get better still. There’s always room for improvement?

-
Charlotte Riggio (@MsLiberty1776US) reported@virginmedia you know what would be great? If your phone system worked so your agents could hear customers and not hang up on them saying there’s no response
-
