Virgin media not available at my new address but is available next door!

Joining in

 I have been a customer for over 20 years and I am about to move home. The home I am moving to does not have virgin but it it is in a location of only 6 houses in a row. 1 or 2 have virgin and I was told it should be able to be provided and a survey would be done. That was 2 weeks ago. I called back today and got the same response that a survey would be needed and would take 2 weeks. I told her that this is what I was previously told and was that not logged. She checked and agreed that it was logged 16 days ago but no response was filled in so she didn't know if it had been done. I was told to find a new supplier.

This is a terrible way to treat a loyal customer. If technically it cannot be done I can accept that but because there is no proper logging of surveys I don't know if I can get the service or not I will have to find a new supplier!

My new address is at G78 1TY and the house is called [REMOVED]. The nearby house under the same post code which has the service is called [REMOVED]  Any help you can give would be appreciated as I wish to remain a customer and need a service from 1st December latest.

Called them up and still saying can't get fibre in. Not trying again as the service is deplorable. The left hand doesn't know what the right is doing in this company.

Phoned to get told it cannot be supplied!

 

Who works in these depts?

The problem is not with the staff. It's with the lack of a system that would allow them to communicate with each other and pass on information. Your case is a  typical one, where they have lost a customer due to their own disorganization.

My name is NOT Alessandro. That's just a tag Virginmedia sticks on some contributors. Please ignore it.
