Cookie (@chrissincl29564) reported@stephenm68 @virginmedia That is awful. Virgin media have really done down hill in looking after their customers. All they care about is customer acquisition

Iain Sankey (@IainSankey) reportedSo, after three long telephone calls, I'm back to square one. Now, I'm going to have to look for an alternative internet supplier. I wouldn't mind so much, but I've been a customer of @virginmedia for about 30 years! 😡

Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reportedIn 2003, Stan Beaton lost his wife Ruby to cancer. But there was one small piece of her he could still hold onto. Her voice. Ruby had recorded the outgoing voicemail greeting on their home phone around 2001. After she died, Stan deliberately kept it. In the difficult years that followed, whenever he was feeling particularly low, he could pick up the phone and hear her voice again. He even avoided changing phone providers because he was afraid the recording might disappear. Then, in December 2014, it did. Technical work involving Virgin Media's voicemail system caused Ruby's recording to vanish. Stan was devastated. After protecting it for more than a decade, he believed the sound of his wife's voice was gone for good. When Virgin Media learned what the recording meant to him, a team of engineers began searching through their systems. They initially thought the chances of recovering it were extremely small. They searched for three days. Then they found it. In January 2015, BBC Radio Leeds was there as Stan heard the recovered recording for the first time. The moment Ruby's voice came through, he recognized her immediately. "That's her." Stan broke down in tears. He later described hearing her again as a "wonderful, wonderful sound." Virgin Media also gave him a permanent copy of the recording, so he would never have to rely on the voicemail system to keep it safe again. Ruby had recorded nothing extraordinary. It was simply an everyday greeting for their home telephone. Fourteen years later, that ordinary little recording had become something Stan thought he would never hear again.
