    @Paulout @BT @virginmedia I can’t believe how bad BT have been over this. Advisors just seem to want to keep you talking even after taking 20+ mins to get through and then do nothing for you. Proper fed up 🙁

    @virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

    @virginmedia Thanks for you lack of response @virginmedia, obviously customer support or helping out my 86 year old mother who lives alone get her phone back and working is not a priority to you, maybe @SkyHelpTeam will be more helpful when I call them tomorrow, disgraceful customer service

    @virginmedia Help !!! How do I cancel my contract? On line it says to ring you and when you ring it says to go on line. If I call to try and speak to anyone at all, there is simply no answer, no matter how long you hold for. #stuck #customerservice? @richardbranson @MartinSLewis

    @virginmedia hi. Can you advise why my internet is so poor at 5 York House Leeds LS28 5DE?

  • WolfofX
    Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reported

    In 2003, Stan Beaton lost his wife, Ruby, to stomach cancer. Before she passed away, she had recorded the voicemail greeting for their home telephone. It was an ordinary message to anyone else, but to Stan it became the last recording of her voice. For more than a decade, he kept that voicemail safe. He even stayed with the same phone company because he feared changing providers might erase it. Whenever he missed Ruby, he would call his own home just to hear her say, "Sorry, at the moment, Stan and Ruby are not available..." For him, those few seconds were enough to bring her close again. Then, in December 2014, a network upgrade accidentally deleted the recording. Stan was heartbroken. He later said it felt like losing his wife all over again. Believing there was nothing left to lose, he contacted Virgin Media and asked if there was any way to recover it. What followed was something no one expected. Eleven telecommunications engineers spent three days searching through backup systems for a single deleted audio file. They described it as looking for a needle in a haystack, but they refused to give up. They found it. Instead of simply returning the recording, BBC Radio Leeds arranged a surprise during an interview with Stan. As Ruby's familiar voice filled the room once again, he broke down in tears. "That's her. Wonderful. Wonderful." The company later gave Stan permanent copies of the recording on a CD so he would never have to fear losing it again. It wasn't just a recovered voicemail. It was the return of the last words he could still hear from the woman he loved, a voice that had waited silently for years until someone cared enough to bring it back.

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia Yes, we’ve got it and I’ve found it way faster, and more reliable than Sky. Haven’t had to go through customer services yet, so can’t comment on that. 12 months in and not even had to reset the router.

    I was told I would get £40 credit on my account for poor service but it had not been taken away from my bill,instead ypu have stated that I owe £40 from last month instead. Lying again. @virginmedia

    @0xsachi I think "moat" is just a polite way of saying monopoly. First mover advantage builds a brand and customer stickiness, and I think this should be the goal, personally. But all these anti-competitive practices like making cancelling services ridiculously hard (hello @virginmedia ) or walling the garden once you get enough users (hello @facebook Open Graph) should be cracked down on, in my opinion.

    @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia Mad concept but it is possible for both Ireland to be poor and the ref have had a poor game.

    @virginmedia You close a call and open a new one without resolution. That’s how you avoid @Ofcom ratings
