Not sure that this is the right place but here we go.
Yesterday morning the local authority were cutting the grass verges and the twin cable feeding my property was shredded by their machine as it was above the grass level. On returning from work I rang VM and a rep from India answered. I explained to her numerous times what the problem was but she still insisted running a diagnostics test to my house. As I was getting exasperated because of repeating myself I asked for an engineer appointment. I was told this Friday so I asked to speak with someone from the UK with a higher authority............I was transferred to a VM rep in "south east Asia!!!!!!
I explained the problem again and asked for an engineer to come out to join the damaged cable as I had lost `phone, TV and broadband. I was offered Friday again. I explained that my wife was classed as "extremely vulnerable", registered disabled and amongst other medical issues, suffered with type 1 diabetes and had to download on a daily basis the information from her insulin pump to forward it via e-mail to the diabetes dept. at the local hospital. This didn`t seem to matter one iota to the rep. I find it very hypocritical that during these times of the Covid pandemic I have received quite a few e-mails from VM stating that their priorities for any issues would be the eldery, disabled and extremely vulnerable. Am I to assume that their priority timescale is FOUR working days??
