A Decision from the Ombudsman
So after months and months from the introduction of the shambolic VM/O2 login which locked me totally out of my account settings for nearly twelve weeks, the Ombudsman has upheld my case, awarding a compensation payment from VM.
When you prepare your case you have to fill in the section that asks you what in your view would be a satisfactory agreement to finalise the issue. Whilst the Ombudsman was reflecting on my suggestion of a public execution of a random ten senior managers, VM in the meantime countered with a legal loophole citing some obscure regulation that this was not within the contractual terms and conditions… even for senior VM managers. (Maybe ten was too many?! Perhaps 5 would have been accepted?!)
Oh well!
(PS … my compensation payment has now all gone to Cats Protection… and for anyone out there with an issue… look to the Ombudsman… It takes time, but it can be done!)
