Landline not working again

SammieC1
Tuning in

Could you please help? Please can someone help?
For the third time my landline doesn't work. The engineer comes out, fixes a different issue goes away. It will work for two weeks and then the fault returns.
Always the same fault. When making or receiving a call it works for approximately ten minutes and then the line goes dead.
I am so fed up of paying for something that doesn't work. All I have received is two days compensation but ever since I moved over a year ago it hasn't worked properly.
Please can someone help? I feel such despair with this issue. It doesn't work, engineer comes out, time off work, paying for something that doesn't work but have another 6 months contract left.
Please please can virgin help with this issue?
My landline is not working again. An engineer comes out, finds a different fault. It works for two weeks and then doesn't work again.

OK thank you. 

Paulina, are you able to help me please? This issue has been on going for some time.i am paying for a service I am unable to use.

If this cannot be fixed, could the landline be removed please? 

Please advise ASAP. 

Hi @SammieC1 thanks for your reply, sorry you've had this ongoing for so long.

As we'd mentioned, it does seem a colleague invited you to PM with them, we would recommend to keep in touch with them and if they haven't responded, please send them another message chaser here and we'll get things resolved for you.

Many thanks

Hi, thank you for coming back to me. I thought I had sent a chaser on here. It's what you responded to.

 

 

 

Do I need to create a new message and not reply to existing one?

Are you not able to message Paulina asking her to respond? 

Hi @SammieC1 thanks for your reply.

Apologies, the chaser via PM is what we mean. My previous colleague has said you're in discussion via PM to another colleague - it looks like Ayisha reached out to you on here, you can chase Ayisha directly here if she hasn't responded to date.

I hope this helps.

Many thanks

The technician will confirm during their visit if any of these instances apply, and if so, a £25 charge will be applied to your account.
