Quite possibly the worst onboarding and customer 'care' experience I've EVER had @virginmedia Unfulfilled promises, failure to deliver contract as agreed and now I'm 'lost' in the system and being ignored. I'm left with no choice other than to 'out' you. #CaveatEmptor

@virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

@virginmedia He has called a few times and I called once. They say there is an issue in the area. He's been without service since July and they said the issue would be resolved on 21st aug. ive been away and it's still not fixed. It looks like an issue with the box to me as a layman

@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 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 the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

@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

@virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

@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 Just called your offshore call centre regarding my internet connection. I’m having the same issues as I had when I got a £154 credit from you. /1

@virginmedia And this is why, I'll be reporting you to trading standards for fraudulent misselling/misrepresentation and then abdicating ALL responsibility/accountability to resolve. There's no security/DPA issues in you giving me a direct dial number via DM. You just don't want to resolve.

@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 so I just had to contact o2 and cancel a sim card contract which I was scammed into having through virgin media, the salesman told me I wouldn't pay for the sim as it was complimentary as part of my package. Be careful people when signing up with virgin media.

Trying to cancel my @virginmedia broadband is slowing turning into that episode of Friends when Ross and Chandler just want to cancel their gym membership 🙄🙄 #virginmedia #itstoolateforyourspecialoffers #couldyouBEmoreannoying

Quite a few @virginmedia users are tweeting about receiving an email asking for payment for bills already paid. Might save their customers some stress if VM put information about this issue on their site, tweeted and sent emails.

@virginmedia Yes, I believe there is an issue from the cabinet to the front of the property, this was not anticipated the 1st time and has not been completed before the 2nd time

@virginmedia This was never explained at the point of changing my package. I’m in a cooling off period, so it’s easy to cancel.

@virginmedia Anyone know if there is an issue with Virgin TV in the WA5 area. Used checker and it says intermittent signal issue in area. We have two boxes, one is fine the other is stuck on start up mode! How does that work.

@virginmedia This really needs to move on. It’s been dragging on for weeks because a) help resources are desperately under-resourced+poorly staffed b) VM staff are obstructive when I do manage to make contact. @libertyglobal will urgently need to resolve this aspect of their new investment

@virginmedia Can I send my wifi pod back as its made no difference to my service? Also my package price was raised without me being told
