ugh ntl (our isp) got bought out by virgin
media.
£35.00 per month internet
£11.00 per month phone
£20.50 per month tv
£66.50 per month right???
well last month the direct debit was for
£150 and the month before - Steve hadn't
got around to calling them because of his
work hours.
So today I tried ringing my dad and I
can't dial out.
Come to find out that they have cut our
services to the bare minimum for
"non-payment" what?
They are saying the outstanding is
£430??? errrrr hello
so yeah, there's a risk right now that we
might lose the internet but it will be
temporary.
sucks ugh

 I would be
absolutely livid  Do you
think they lost your records when they
were sold to the new company? Or maybe
they didn't get all of the payment
information ported over?

judging by the monetary numbers it looks
like we are being charged double each
month.
they've got all our account details. they
are saying that because of one late
payment back in feb that they cancelled
the direct debit (why?) and they haven't
bothered to tell us (yeah, that's great,
well done virgin).
Danni, Steve works for Orange business
services (currently based at airbus
{A380}), not the customer/internet side.
and as an isp orange have been rated the
very worst and their care of their staff
(at least in business side) is crap

Oh oh oh Let me call I'm great at getting
stuff like that handled I do it for my
clients all the time!
Seriously thought that sucks, call a lot
tell them to make a note of everything.
The you also need to keep notes, when did
you call what did they tell you. Just
basics but if you can call they back and
say I called you on April 1st about Blah
blah blah and you said ..... they normaly
start paying attation.

OMG what????
Kind of what happened to me too.
They put a cap on download/bandwith limit
on highspeed so I went back down to dsl
excet they forgot to mention that the dsl
is now basic so 32-56kb, so my internet is
sooooooo slow. It's like I have dial up.
THat's why I haven't been on from home in
a while. I'm going back up to ultra
highspeed on Tuesday. grrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I hate phone companies!!!
I work for .Yellow .pages, but we're just
directories not phones. lol
