Looking at their twitter support page it's commonplace for any call.

2 hours 34 mins total wait time then the line gets disconnected.
Never had anything near this.
Notify them of your cancellation via email and cancel the direct debit. Provide a phone number so they can call you if that isn't sufficient.
And then send them some shit in a parcel.
I like that last one. Direct debit isn't even set up yet. I'll be due £80 off the bastards though.
When I was on the phone they said it was being passed onto the finance team right now. I emailed them today and they said it was done today and that I might not have the money until tomorrow.Originally Posted by Sir Andy Mahowry
The bullshit continues \0/.
The recent wildfires in Californi might be the worst so far, they’re about 200 miles north of where I am and the sky here has been Beijing tier the last few days. Serious Mad Max vibes. I’m lovin all these particulates
Good job climate change isn't real, otherwise these things would start becoming more frequent and severe.
People being idiots and cunts is far more frequent anyway.
Anyone ever use Virgin Media's customer service online chat? Why are they so slow to respond? Do they have these poor fuckers running about 20 chats at once or what?
100%.
I asked him how many people he was talking to at once but he didn't answer that. I gave up on it eventually as he was so slow. Rang them up instead. Thought I got the problem fixed. It is not fixed. The phone call was near an hour long too so I've basically wasted the entire afternoon with these cunts.
I'm with Virgin and mine has been spotty the last week or so, it'll shit the bed for a few hours at a time then go back to proper speed. There's no point reporting anything though as they just blame your hardware or flat out deny there's a problem.
My business line was down yesterday for about 2 hours. It's not ideal.
It's not a problem with the actual broadband itself. I can't get registered with their My Virgin Media bollocks to see/pay my bills online.
Virgin and only second to Vodafone in the horrendous customer service stakes.
TAP are the pits. I've just been hounding them on social media until they respond. 3 months after I complained about a delayed flight, still nothing.
Sky are far worse than Virgin. Vodafone do top the pops in the shit league though, and by some distance.
Hey, to offer a counterpoint I've just improved my virgin package (sky sports HD & sky cinema HD rather than SD sport and none of the films) with one of the lovely live text chat fellas for about £15/month less.
I mean, had I been an entirely new customer I'd have gotten it for even cheaper (for 12 months anyway), but it's my own fault for committing to a 12 months contract that was a bit shit in the first place.
Having something booked to the point where you can't get your money back. And then having something else come up on the same day.
Found out the place I've been staying for a week has an Amazon Echo. What a fucking piece of shit. When it's not trying to sell me Amazon products it's telling me 'Mystikal - Danger' doesn't exist.
Watch yourself.
Just an absolute tune
Played Cards Against Humanity yesterday. I had only read about it here. Fuck me that was dull.
It's decent, but it's also meant for people half your age so i'm not sure how you got around to playing a game
I played it with 2 people Friday evening and I've never force-laughed as much in my entire life.
'I would like to have sex with... Cherie Blair's crusty anus'
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA SO FUNNY, AAHHH, TEARS
Who do they replace the Madeleine McCann cards with over there?
It's pretty shit and lame, but especially if you're playing with a more mixed group. Terrible as an icebreaker I've found cus generally the senses of humour are less compatible. I also couldn't help but get really fucked off the time I played with a bunch of grebby retards, where every fucking time people voted for whoever had the most edgy/gross card, regardless of what they played it with, so it was an exercise in seeing who'd get lucky and grab all the dead baby cards. Cretins.
I did quite enjoy it though when I played with a bunch of close mates. Undeniably we're a bunch of unfunny wankers and you'd all hate us, but we generally had similar senses of humour, and it felt more like we were actually all judging on how well you used your cards in context rather than AHAHA JIMMY SAVILLE GREAT. Also helped being in an environment where people were comfortable to not laugh and say stuff was shit if it was.
You can play it online somewhere. I genuinely would be up for a game with some of you lot, it might be amusing for 5 minutes or so.
It's just manufactured fun for boring idiots.
I agree 99%, and I wish the stuff was less edgy and lame, but there is an interesting enough parlour game buried in there somewhere. It was quite fun playing with other people trying to approach it with some semblance of...craft? I dunno. It's the kind of thing I hate too but if they'd made it more open-ended and hadn't filled it with all the predictable shock-value shite I think it could be an alright game. Though without the #NOTORIETY I doubt anyone would have bought it in the first place.

I found a far more interesting game in the back of a cupboard a few weeks ago, called Scruples.
You win by correctly predicting other people's answers to the posed questions, and I'm sure many friendships have been ended by it. A sample question is 'You are a journalist and your boss orders you to harass the family of a murder victim into an interview they've already refused. Do you do it?'
Hahahah. Yeah that does sound like C.A.H. but a lot less shit. I'll have a look on amazon.
Surely the answer to that is "if I was a journalist that had to agreed to work for a publication with an editor who would ask such a thing, then yes".
Yeah but then there's no game.
That's what I'm saying.
I don't think there is a game if the questions are like that.
He's another one:
You're a Mujahideen, your colleague has a video camera and some editing equipment, do you behead the industrial oil worker in an orange jumpsuit kneeling in front of you?
Yes
Well there we go then, there is no game.
You're looking at this from an incredibly skewiff angle.
You are a man walking a short way behind a young woman at night. She is clearly nervous of you. Do you try to catch up and speak to her to put her mind at ease?
No
don't listen to the spoilsports John, come round mine and we can have a nice game of Scruples
Unless you play with crazy people there's still only one answer to any of these questions.
No, I'd probably drop back or cross the road to put her mind at ease.
I'm not seeing the dilemma in any of these questions.
I wouldn't play it. It doesn't seem like a particularly fun thing to play, I just think it's a more interesting concept than CAH.
the bullies got to you. this is like when Paul Hopkins called me gay for going to chess club and i said i didn't like chess and never went again.
I hated cards against humanity so much I made a thread
https://www.thethirdhalf.co.uk/showt...light=Humanity
I'm a twit
I feel like Jackbox has kinda murdered the Cards Against Humanity crowd. I'd rather write some vicious robot battle raps than play some madlibs.
Leave @Foe alone you cunt.
