How about a nice old fashioned recorded delivery letter. Quick, no comeback and traceable.

Phone calls can easily be forgotten/ignored/not answered.

Thanks, I'll look into that.

Otherwise, these mass redundancies you fear will happen will be down to you.

It's getting harder to have any concern after seeing the pig ignorant way that some speak to customers on here.

Your communication attempts pribably got lost in vms memos of what they will go crying to ofcom about next.
Liberty global have made vm a worse company imo and a embarrasment too, vm still owe me £152.50p i have got to pick up court papers this week to start proceedings, knowing vm they'll go crying to the courts accusing me of being unfair, i think over a year is more than fair especially when their ceo office doesn't respond to communications.

Re: 30 minutes to cancel!

Half an hour to wait in a queue to a call centre....Imagine!!

Only took me 12 mins to get through when I called last month.

Re: 30 minutes to cancel!

I had a problem with my new modem and despite the phone stating a 3 minute queue I waited for well over 15 minutes to be told it's natural for a new modem to take 2 to 3 hours to update. Thanks VM would have been nice if you told me that in the information sent with the device

Standards have certainly slipped since LG took over.
