Ye gods, @virginmedia customer service is beyond terrible. An hour trying to resolve a "phantom calls" issue last night which now needs an engineer visit, and spotted that a direct debit is in an incorrect name but this can't be changed via WhatsApp chat and needs *another* call.

@_MMaritima @virginmedia I'd say that needs an engineer visit then at least. Probably either a bad connection or a flakey modem. Phone and log it every time it goes off.

@virginmedia This appears to be a known issue on your forums (phantom calls) but we refuse to be charged for the visit. Also waiting for a WhatsApp for over an hour because the direct debit still has his late wife's name on account after 7+ years, & we can't change it online (same acc no.).

@gotthegistofit @virginmedia Same, just spent a frustrating hour on their "customer service" line because about £40 of calls are on my father-in-law's bill which weren't made. Still not resolved and an engineer has to come our first (which they wanted to charge for!)

@virginmedia checked your outage tracker and says all services good on the area. Been without internet for nearly an hour. What is going on?

@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.

@_MMaritima @virginmedia Wired speed test would be to isolate between a wireless problem or the connection in. Router might be shielded which would kill signal. Make sure other electronics aren't too close. I can ruin my wireless if I put router on top of my TiVo box

@GingesLife @virginmedia Honestly mate it’s a joke! Just paid the bill yesterday and now the cheeky buggers can’t even provide the service they charge us so much for.

@virginmedia please advise Reduced mobile signal in the NE31 area. The signals were fine until a couple of months ago. previously had 4g I now mainly get E or sometimes 3G this is an issue due to my elderly mother-in-law being in hospital and now very poor signal in their home

@virginmedia everything else is working except kids channels 712 to 717, W02 error. No other channel issues or broadband, done all the standard resets, unplugged at mains etc. Do I need to call to have this resolved? TV guide just says 'to be announced' Everything else is fine.

@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 2 technicians over a week period, 4 visits. TV back on but Internet on and off now. Will be ringing Sky tomorrow and also your cancellation team. Clearly this is my service from now on.

@virginmedia what’s happening in LE67? No internet, TV or phone and website through 4g says no issues.

I absolutely despair with @virginmedia and all the overblown promise about them being ‘customer-obsessed’. In reality they’re nothing of the sort. Lazy, incompetent and utterly disinterested in the needs of their customers.

@TheRichCourt @virginmedia I got exactly the same thing @TheRichCourt and I logged my complaint a week ago now. They asked me to try using a different browser lol🤔

@virginmedia I'm moving and have shut my a/c. You want your kit back but your packaging doesn't fit. I'm too busy to sort this out - tried your chat system - awful, stopped responding. If you want your kit back, contact me by phone - I'm moving house and haven't got time for this

(@pangolinogram) reported
@virginmedia I actually logged it over a week ago so you'd think something would be there by now. Let's not go down the 'is it the browser' route. We know it's not that.

@virginmedia Absolute rubbish I’ve held this email account for 29 years and at points haven’t been a customer for much longer than 90 days! PLUS I think if you were closing it you are obliged to give notice - no?????

Do not EVER do business with @virginmedia - singly the worst company in the world. Disgraceful failure to let customers communicate with them - no phones, nor email, and a chatbot system that makes you scream. DREADFUL COMPANY.
