Title: Virtual landline
Post by: tom20001 on July 16, 2020, 10:13:09 am
Ive a virtual landline a few years and during the covid lockdown I felt i had paused the service,  well thats what I requested. Ive been on to the provider who now wants a Reconnection fee of 30 quid to turn it back on.  I know its small money but on a point of principal surely its not the best customer service . What you think? Maybe its a bit of previous as they charged me twice during lockdown and I was refunded after complaining that I ahd paused my service.

So you paused the service ie... stopped using it?

Perhaps it's like a first clean they charge extra until your a regular  ???

its like people who charge first clean price after you've missed some because its a deep clean

its business isn't it. you creating them extra work and so they need to charge you for that

i'd a bit disgruntled by it, but i'd just pay it and move on. its business

Why did you cancel it? What if someone wanted to contact you. I don't get it.

I use TAMAR £5 a month for an 0800 number and you get the first two hours of calls coming in free... If I'm on the phone for two hours a month talking to 'potentials' I will be more than happy to pay up!
