@virginmedia Hi, following on from the resolution of the issue outlined above. My dad has received a full bill despite being assured by every employee we have spoken to that he wouldn't be charged for the period he was without service (more than two months). Please advise

@virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL

Causing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?

@virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

@virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

@virginmedia Yes I’ve done that. My connection drops out for a minute or so every 30-60 mins. Hard to replicate. My account has notes regarding the reason why the credit was given last time. Ideally I don’t want to wait so long for the same issue to be fixed.

@virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

@virginmedia 2/ Despite that issue being due to a junction connection in the cabinet in the street, the op seems to refuse to look at that and just wants to reboot my router. Also claims it is due to my use of Modem Mode. Is there anyone in the UK I can contact regarding this?

@virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

@Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

@JimSterling @virginmedia Yeah absolutely do not go with virgin they dont get any better. They have gone down hill alot over the last few years. Just watch out they may say you have canceled and then come back for money months later ( we had this happen) so keep records/dates/ names of staff you spoke to.

(@MorrighanThe) reported
@virginmedia I simply get hung up on when trying to cancel or your team says my password is ten characters long but it is nine characters long meaning I fail security. It's absolutely ridiculous. I have vacated the property I'm trying to cancel for over two months,

@virginmedia just signed up for broadband and all good but you seem to insist on overcharging me. Spend 4 hours on support chat sorting out but still billed. Any chance of getting my money back?

@JimSterling @virginmedia if you need the connection for business (which obviously you do), I wouldnt touch Virgin Media with someone elses barge poll never mind my own. They are absolutely dreadful and they dont care. Their routers are shite, their tv boxes somehow worse.

Jamie Gillespie
(@JayDGee) reported
@JimSterling @virginmedia I used to work in one of their call centres (Don't recommend it). Then at least they fostered a culture of getting through calls quickly at any cost. People would regularly drop or transfer calls as soon as they got near the 5 minute mark to keep their call average down.

@JimSterling @virginmedia If they need to have a dedicated department for people who cancel before their service before it's even installed, that says something.
