Virginmedia woes

I’ve been suffering from huge problems with my virginmedia phone service over the last 4 weeks. It’s been hugely inconvenient and virginmedia have been nothing short of incompetent in resolving the problem.

I’ve given them a week to sort it out, or I’m taking my business elsewhere. The lesson here is that they might be good on price, but it comes at a huge price in terms of customer service. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone who needs reliable service with access to decent support when things go wrong.

I’ll certainly be going for another provider when we move – I don’t want to go through all this pain again.

A new start…

Hello! Welcome to my new website / bloggy thing. I kind of gave up on the old site – it was too complicated and I rather lost the will to keep it maintained and up to date. I tried using Mambo and Joomla, and whilst they could do tons of stuff, they were just a bit over the top. I’ve made the switch to WordPress and hopefully it will prove to be simpler and less scary to use.

I’ve got a bunch of photos and things to post, so watch this space!
