  • lexo6647 Acky (@lexo6647) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia the problem is now being dealt with and will need repair. Thanks for the help again although it shouldn’t be so difficult. Pensioners don’t have the knowledge to do what I had to do for my dad

  • iABehl Abhishek BEHL (@iABehl) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I would like help / assistance in setting up my new account. I received 3 missed calls today from your sales team and when I did call back nothing productive happened. I have a severely disabled daughter and we need the new account to be activated as we have alot of…

  • lexo6647 Acky (@lexo6647) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia We have tried to problem solve ourselves and need help. A replacement box or an engineer, not a link to a forum. Do you have a link to a customer complaints department? Maybe I will get somewhere with them.

  • lexo6647 Acky (@lexo6647) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia as it was tiresome and he can’t get through to anyone. The same problem I had today. He has his phone, broadband and tv with you. His mobile as well I reckon. Having spent a good bit time today going through all the stuff on the phone to eventually be hung up on is infuriating

  • lexo6647 Acky (@lexo6647) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia been trying to get through to you. Finally got through to try and speak to a customer service and was cut off immediately when transferred from automated service to an actual person. Trying to sort out my 80 year old dads tv service. Awful service

  • DebbieMid61 Debbie Middlemass (@DebbieMid61) reported from Newtongrange, Scotland

    @virginmedia We have a complaint number however as stated in your email you aim to get back to us within 28 days!

  • bigtoodle Peter Tuffy (@bigtoodle) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I can hear a band playing a tune but it will not be to my benefit. I phoned today about being overcharged obviously the call handler was so inept she cut me off rather than fix it. But she did get in the fact that this terrible service was going up by 20% next month.

  • bigtoodle Peter Tuffy (@bigtoodle) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia more problems with Virgin, their internet and phone service in EH 14 has had problems for two weeks, no refund for the loss of service though. I was cut off today after their call handler could not answer the simplest of questions on an overcharged bill.

  • bigtoodle Peter Tuffy (@bigtoodle) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Well as usual you are not proactive to customers informing them of a lack of service. You instead are always reactive when someone complains and slow to compensate for loss of service. Your frequency of drop outs in service are held as secretive.

  • thefyvies David Fyvie (@thefyvies) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia It’s been horrific for the last 4-5 days although today is by far the worst.

  • JetteUk Jette Goldie ♿ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣@wolfette@mastodon.social (@JetteUk) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia broadband in EH11 is up and down like a yo-yo. More down than up. (like my attempts with a yo-yo)

  • Kim6672012 Kim667 (@Kim6672012) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia poor show @virgin media. Nothing works! Not even the app or your service status page.

  • gedi29 Ged O’Hara 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@gedi29) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia any update on the uk wide broadband issues??

  • wfastronomer Nicholas Cross (@wfastronomer) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @andrewducker I did have two rather stressful conversations with Virginmedia a couple of months back. In the first one they offered me a terrible offer and said it was the best and moving took ages. They did this in a slow way, always trying to divert the conversation. 1/

  • DarrenObbard Darren Obbard is on mastodon (@DarrenObbard) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes. Yesterday. Which is why our phone doesn't work. No adapter, despite being assured it would be sent.

  • plasterer_mj M.J Plastering & Tiling (@plasterer_mj) reported from Tranent, Scotland

    @virginmedia Certainly not ideal paying for a service we're not getting

  • MacqueenHector Hector MacQueen (@MacqueenHector) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia, I have been trying to contact you for 3 weeks in order to cancel my TV contract. Email, phone, WhatsApp and your app all lead into frustrating brick walls. Kindly contact me, quickly.

  • ladyracer70 diandrick (@ladyracer70) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks for asking. An operator will call me back tomorrow, as it’s part of an ongoing three week saga. I’m so disappointed as I’ve been a loyal VM (originally Telewest) customer for around 30 years. Remaining hopeful 🙃

  • vcash78 victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Finally something positive to say about @virginmedia following a call from Callum at the “executive team” providing the level of current service I would expect from a such a huge company! Perhaps the skills of good customer service need to be a CPD exercise for the call centres!

  • vcash78 victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Very interesting as I was told £216.11 for each service (TV, BB, Phone). I asked is this a total of over £600 and she said, “yea mamm,that is correct”. My response was purely to laugh. This conversation has happed in the last 15 minutes. Absolutely despicable!

I've worked on behalf of bt before and done interviews with them... no free drink for me no free drink for them! They get a solid 7.5 for the install though! Even gave some free financial coaching...

    @virginmedia had about a month's worth of decent internet when we signed up with you then since, it's been intermittent ****, we had someone out to change cables,hub, and connectors in the hub on the street and after about 2 weeks of decent internet, were back to intermittent

  • jazzyjeff10 Jeff Gilmore (@jazzyjeff10) reported

    @virginmedia So I take it the service engineers are off for the weekend and bank holiday. Really says what Virgin Media think of their customers. No TV services for a week and not even an explanation of what the problem is.

  • PLenus42458532 P. Lenus (@PLenus42458532) reported

    @virginmedia what ******** are you guys doing now , this is the 4th time . can you guys please stop ripping people off and fix your **** ? i have 3 technicians come over so far & nothing gets fixed . all you guys do is delay it so that you can STEAL another months pay .

  • hryevans Harry Evans (@hryevans) reported
