Credit where credit’s due

I am a new customer, my go-live day was yesterday (4th) and the engineer arrived set everything up but the outside work, put in a couple of weeks ago did not work. Overnight, the provider I was switching from pulled the plug so this morning had no broadband, I had done away with the landline and because the mobile signal here is virtually non-existent (I was relying on the call over WiFi thing) was a bit cut off. Managed to get through to customer services (from the top of my garden :-) ) and was promised a visit this afternoon to have a look.

Within 10 minutes of putting the phone down (about 8:30 this morning) 2 virgin engineers turned up and had it all sorted within the hour. Given my previous rants and misgivings about opting for VM, I felt I had to say a big thank you and share some good news on here for a change. Well done to the VM teams involved for sorting it all out so promptly, I’m impressed.

Thanks again, John

    Hi John,

    Glad you are up and running. It's nice to read something good on the forums, especially with all the current issues regarding VM emails and My Virgin Media accounts.  

    Just a reminder re your post <here>

    Your 14 day colling off period starts from today which is when you went live.  Hopefully you won't need to take advantage of that.
