virgin Media router never arrived when promised
 
been 2 weeks now since i change my services and i have not received the router for when i upgraded to 20 meg from 10;
I just received a letter this morning informing of my new contract installation date 18th nov this is 27th:
why was this sent an were is the router?
i phone them on wed 24th, to find a reason the girl said it was never order (what a suppraise) meaning i wasn't to get 1;
as i do no its going 2 take another 3. to 5 days expected by tuesday 30th,
again i wont hold my breath for it to arrive as this is a private courier who sending it: i am not in most days so i am going miss it being sent to me;
not very happy with this
been with ntl/virgin for 10 years

Can you not arrange for a neighbour to accept delivery?

chill_fm 27-11-2010 11:37

Re: virgin Media router never arrive when promise
 
yeh it could be possible but think its 2 late 2 organise anything if its being sent on mond or tuesday
as i dont no who the courier is:
if no answer from myself would he/she go 2 next door?

Not unless you left a message for him. A friend just pinned a note on his door "deliver all parcels to NoXX". He received his OK.

The router will be delivered by YODEL ( formerly HDNL ) and the will be a tracking number on your account that an agent can give you which will tell what is happening with your parcel and gives you the option to reschedule if required.

This could explain the company name (maybe using old cards?) YODEL ( formerly HDNL )

Quite often there is a service button or similar for deliveries or utility companies to enter high rise with call buttons at the entrance.

There has been a little bit of inclement weather recently, which has affected delivery of many sorts of goods (for instance, I am awaiting 3 or 4 deliveries from Amazon).

When you ring up does the agent have a tracking number for you.

vm agent phone them direct not me

When we order a router and the courier processes the order they put a tracking number on the account which any agent can give you, then you put it into the couriers website tracker which tells you what is happening and gives you the option to reschedule delivery.

We can give you a customer phone number to call as well, we only ring if the router has not been successfully delivered.

chill_fm 13-12-2010 15:00

Re: virgin Media router never arrived when promised
 
so another story is this never ending quest to receive a router from this delivery company that failed to turn up
just rang vm an they have said to me they will sent me another 1
why is this as this will get lost to it;
be sent within 2 days:
just wandering if this failed to turn up what do we do next???

Hugh 13-12-2010 16:12

Re: virgin Media router never arrived when promised
 
Have you tried tracking the parcel, as advised earlier in this thread?

chill_fm 13-12-2010 16:23

Re: virgin Media router never arrived when promised
 
dont have 1 as said before
vm were doing the tracking on the parcel when i phone an said it was on the road but did not show
only receive 1 calling card an as said before tried 2 phone them with no joy or even get a redirect failed 2 turn up
its a total breaking down on the company who are lieng in when they said they have delivered it but didn't or i get a calling card from them

Hugh 13-12-2010 16:29

Re: virgin Media router never arrived when promised
 
Well, next time you ring VM, ask for the tracking number and track it yourself; it may help.

chill_fm 13-12-2010 16:34

Re: virgin Media router never arrived when promised
 
i wait till end of the week if this new 1 won't arrive
then we no the company are failing to deliver when they should be
an not sitting on there bums all day
