God virgin media are useless:

Me: “hello how long is left in my contract”
VM: “you have three months left, may I ask why”
Me: “this is now the 3rd day in two weeks I have had no broadband I’m looking to swap to someone more reliable”
VM: “ I’m sorry to hear that I’ll check our system to see what I can do for you”
2 mins on hold
VM: “hello mr day we can offer you a special offer of doubling your internet speed for only £5 a month”
Me: “how does that help with the fact I have no internet”
VM: “well it won’t but we have an engineer looking at the problem and we estimate it will be fixed by 17:05”
Me: “thanks but no thanks, what’s the early exit fee”

😡🤬😡

    I don't have much issue with them tbh but then I have the home worker option so priority repairs.

    Same with every ISP tbh. We’re stuck with Sky (not even fibre!) and it drives me insane.

    We had an OpenReach engineer out the other day because sky’s system identified a fault - turns out some dippy sod had plugged our line into a different property at the exchange box. *facepalm*

    @Brolls We has that issue last month, had no phone line as they disconnected the wrong one as it was linked wrongly in the cabinet 🙄

    Why you have to pay to exit? Just.. Unplug and find new ISP

    @gajahterbang because it’s a contract? You have to pay to exit the contract.

    I would have answered: Well, two times zero is still zero

    Glad I averted that disaster. Get hyperoptics if it's available

    @angryMoFo wish gigabit providers were quicker. I guess it's difficult for them to rapidly expand. The whole OpenReach system did and Virgin idag available in a lot of places so there is no *real* competition. Whether it's EE, TalkTalk or BT, they can only compete on price and can't even lay cables themselves to attract customers.
