@virginmedia Can’t answer calls ems bouncing back. Wouldn’t it make more sense to just take everyone’s sports package off. Paying £125 per month at this my point my other half is ready to cancel everything when we can.

@virginmedia No, unfortunately I never got that far. Seriously considering just cancelling and going with a company that has more respect for its customers. Literally became a client 5 days ago

@virginmedia Twice but very unsatisfactorily and although I was told at 5.30 that I would receive a call back within half an hour from a customer services manager, I am yet to receive that call. New customer extremely f***ed off if I'm honest

.@virginmedia have emailed me a survey about their handling of my complaint. Nil points all the way. To be fair once I managed to speak to someone she was ok(just) and gave me answers. Trust is so low I don't entirely believe them

@virginmedia understand that like every other business that you’re short staffed with the pandemic, but the speed of internet recently has been shocking. Website is useless, community help is useless. Don’t want to ring up, yet they’re happy to still take my money every month.

@WilliamNB @virginmedia Nope. Stuff thankfully works pretty well but company is proving to be awful. Shamelessly trying to use the breach their sloppiness allowed to wriggle out of the gdpr queries I've lodged as a result of the breach.

@virginmedia Hi I text two evenings ago when you told me too, and then received a very generic response about upgrading my package online. I have since text again to say that the problem is with the increase and that I may need to cancel but nothing back yet. Over 6 hours on hold now to you!

@virginmedia can you please explain why once again my install date has been delayed?! As a new customer this is now getting beyond a joke and I’m seriously thinking of leaving before I’ve even started

(@OhThisBloodyPC) reported
@virginmedia The call centre say "we will call you back in two hours because the tool we need is not working" They don't call vbqck. One female operative was friendly, but after 45 minutes she, like Jomil before, said "we can't change the details" She passed my wife on to a male call handler

@virginmedia I expected that that’s exactly why you have a 2 star rating (poor) on Trustpilot. I am not wasting my time making anymore complaints to your incompetent staff thanks I will just let everyone on social media platforms hear how terrible you are

@virginmedia Yeah with huge respect this been going on for over a year. So I won’t hold my breath. Just do your job and fix it before someone gets hurt. As I’ve said previously. School nearby and there’s sharp edges on the cupboard. Only takes a kid to trip and get hurt.

(@OhThisBloodyPC) reported
@virginmedia We have tried to phone your call centre, and twice a man has hung up on when my wife tries to speak to him. It's her work broadband account so she has to place the order - but obviously there is a cultural difference and male callers have a problem with female callers.

@virginmedia Hi, as per my origi al tweet, I've been on a WhatsApp conversation with various people since 9am this morning. It's indicative of the state your customer service is in. All I'm asking is consideration of the fact I have been trying to close my account for days.

@virginmedia Here are some frequently asked questions missing from your automated service: Why do you outsource customer support to people who are, understandably, struggling to understand callers from a land 5000 miles away in a different time zone?

@virginmedia Virgin Media we had a new fibre line fitted on the 9th of march still hasn't been fixed. Got off the phone to customer service an hour ago told me there's nothing they can do. Said they can book another tech visit but nothing is getting sorted had 4 months of bad internet.

@virginmedia hi, please can you confirm if my contract has been cancelled. I never received a confirmation email and I don’t wanna call again as I’ve just spent £42.34 for 58 mintues of being passed from person to person.
