@virginmedia your call centre is an absolute joke. No one deals with problems and just transfers to a different department who hang up

@virginmedia Yes spoke to a member of the team, we have been having issues with our wifi. She offered to send another booster & cable out free off charge. Available on our contract. I’ve just received email to say my payments are going up to £60!!

@OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.

@virginmedia That was the original issue, the main thing outside was flooded and corroded (affecting 6 customers in street), so the network team I think came and fixed that, we've had 1 week of working service until today.

“You don’t need to be there, we can do the cable work outside no problem” That translated into a card through the door saying “Sorry we missed you” and the work not being done. Don’t really understand that one @virginmedia

@virginmedia why is your self service so poor please. Unable to resolve the fault that I have on my service for 2 days now. No one to speak to and the website is abhorrent in terms of customer experience and engagement. Endless loop of bad requests within the servers you use too

@virginmedia It's not a problem at my end, and it's not just me affected. Have you really not noticed a flurry of people saying the same thing? I know people in different areas of the UK who have the same problems at the same times.

@virginmedia Since last Friday, the connection has been awful. Somehow worse and worse since. Why not communicate upfront with consumers in the affected areas? Why pretend there's no issues for days on your site? I want a fair compensation for your terrible service. #virginmedia

@virginmedia You mean a time when they will think about bothering to check to see what the issues are? I'll predict that once it hits lunchtime the fix time will magically change again

@virginmedia i have tried to speak to o2 - as yet no response. But it was a Virgin media issue that caused me to call & it was VM that left me hanging on the line and being passed from 1 person to another. VM can compensate me to make up for the costs I have incurred. o2 were not at fault,
