  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Yet a new LOW in crappy “customer service” from @Virginmedia - letter saying they have been trying to contact me (still waiting for a callback from 26/8/20) no attempts made and to text a number to get someone to contact me ...... guess what an automated system that gets

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I didn’t say it was an instant response service !!! I said that YOUR COLLEAGUE said they couldn’t access account information on social media !!! So they were lying then? This would seem the case if you are now asking me to provide the complaint reference?

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia (And watch all will go quiet they like to make a public show of responding but because I’ve called out @Virginmedia on their crap service - they now won’t respond !!! )

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No I did not “tweet you” about the complaint I was agreeing with another customer & saying that I am having the same experiences-YOU responded to that tweet by asking for the complaint implying you were actually going to do something which you have not!! Further proving my point!

    @JohnWant6 @virginmedia I’ve got the same in Belfast BT5, @virginmedia network down, “C133 Network Availability” error

  • StripeyMiata Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Also, on the Virgin Media support forums, loads of people complaining text cancelling isn’t working either, hence I wrote.

  • davmacfc Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No it’s not fair at all John, I’ve been a loyal customer of virgin for quite a few years and the price increases along with the differential to new customers have got too much. Soon to be an ex customer if I can get through to your call centre @skytv any thing you can offer

  • davmacfc Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia @SkyHelpTeam any offers on the go for a soon to be ex virgin media customer

  • niscaffolding Robert Andrews (@niscaffolding) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Still no WiFi in the house and no on hold for another 55min today all I need is an engineer out as the boost you keep doing is not working no matter how many times I boos reboot the system? I’m sure an engineer can solve the problem please just send one out.

  • bernardmccabe Ben McCabe (@bernardmccabe) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia 4 days since internet cut off and still no sign of fixing it. While I’m paying a stupid amount for the privilege.

  • carey_jonathan Jonathan carey (@carey_jonathan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Aye, sure I've nothing better to do that sit for 45mins on hold. How about you call me? Your customer that you're not providing a service for!

  • ChairborneG G (@ChairborneG) reported

    @virginmedia That was the intial complaint. Now it’s all snowballed from the customer support. You just keep lying about a manager calling me. Lied about raising a complaint I was given a made up number. Want to raise with CISAS U Refuse to process my GDPR SAR asked for since 17/01/2021

    @virginmedia can you please explain to me how I’m supposed to get a STAC code when my SIM card is broken and I’m trying to use your online function to fix this????

  • ChairborneG G (@ChairborneG) reported

    @virginmedia I will get the call transcripts from a SAR eventually. ICO will just enforce it. Then I will raise a complaint that will be upheld. It will become an aggravating factor. Also u refused to raise a complaint for the customer service. Telling me I can only have 1
