I know exactly what will happen if they phone customer services... a form will be filled in and they will be told they should hear something shortly. Whereas, in most cases, I know I can fix that issue...Monkeybreath also knows HE can fix them too...so we tend to sidestep all that and just jump in and sort it.
We should take every customer complaint seriously. After all, whether WE think it's justified or not, it's clearly a problem to the person posting it. Even if we think it is NOT justified, we can explain this politely without flaming the person concerned.

Yes Mark isn't that what we are supposed to have done but for some reason members failed to. I hope Tardis will look on this experience and realise we are not all like that and stay within the community.

I have only ever seen the Admins and Mods direct members new and old the best way to get help or offer to contact someone withing NTL for help.

No Mick you havent failed the member its us the members of the community that have failed this new member. I hope any visitors will look at the end of this thread and see we are not normally like that and I hope we can promise this will not happen again. WE have always given out warm welcome to new members yet this member was given a raw deal. I hope he stays and accepts we are only human and some made mistakes in the way they welcomed Tardis to our community.

but tardis we

of friendship.
