@VirginMediaIE failing to get support on phone or web chat. No one available since mid week. I'm a new customer with two outstanding issues with installation 7 days ago. How do I speak with a human before I cancel the whole lot via cooling off period?

@CWeston_Indo It was suggested to reinstall the app if an android user 😂 some resolution that! But it also suggests that this calamity could've been avoided. Timing and quality of software updates needs respect, something PTSB don't appear to have much of Charlie

[Ciarán Dempsey @ciars_d]

@AskPTSB 'Intermittent' and 'Some' - two deliberately choice words used, which do not accurately reflect the outage. This is becoming a bit of a joke

[Ciarán Dempsey @ciars_d]

Hi @AskPTSB you've more spammers about today, trying to be clever. @PTSBIreland

@cian_duffy Cian I think the Shaw bus ended up being used for pizzas in Avon Ri in Blessington. Keep up the great work, love the blog!

@willgoodbody Quality journalist Will!

@NewstalkFM A chancer forgot to turn on his meter half way home. He thought I had a few drinks cause I hailed from near a pub. He tried to charge me €46 using his magic calculator. It's usually €28 and that's what he got when he refused a trip to the local Garda station. App uninstalled

@yascaoimhin @PaulBonass @Pidge I said viable options. Anymore bright ideas?

@conor_feehan @dublinbusnews The only app I use these days. Crowd sourced location data sharing, including real time delays much like how Google maps traffic layer works.

@Pidge Appreciate the reply! Example yesterday, DFB Firefighter/Paramedic leaves home 8kms away at 3.55pm for 6pm shift. Still commuting at 5.50pm (8km) the restrictions in place greatly hampers these heroes. A pass to use college green or an allowed passage/turn around quays would help

@Michaelkelly707 Back again. Some sight!

@rtenews Clearly lessons are not being learnt Minister

[Ciarán Dempsey @ciars_d]

@Feljin_J Yet firefighters cannot get to work with ease or with urgency if the need arises given the restrictions in getting to the likes of Townsend Street HQ or North Strand if starting from the southside. It's a detour costing additional time and further squeezing the likes of the canal

[Ciarán Dempsey @ciars_d]

@Michaelkelly707 @gardainfo @IrishAirCorps Hopefully quieter 😂

@Michaelkelly707 Weston as a base Michael?

@crazyhouseprice Similar for me at a viewing in Knocklyon last month...132k over initial asking price following first viewing. A modest semi detached home 🤪
