@virginmedia Media Services. We were offered a deal back in July which was all sports, movies and kids channels for around £111. Since then we have had our wifi and box and each time I call about one of these issues you clear the deal from our account. This month billing us £215!!!

It's 11:45. Having been awake until about 6 or so this morning for the election count, my alarm was set for 8 so I could be up in time for the @virginmedia engineer to fix my broadband. They'd be here between 8 and 12 they said. Clock's ticking...

@virginmedia Your customer service is a joke! I've been on the phone over an hour and spoken to 9 different people to be lied to and told the engineer tried knocking and calling my mobile this morning (I've been home all morning but had no one at the door and no missed calls).

@virginmedia I've been a customer with you for 21 years and your customer service is not great, I'm paying through the roof for my package, the wifi is crap sometimes, your team has offered to take my bill down £20, but when I mentioned about replacing my hub, that will cost £35

@virginmedia Each month I've had to make subsequent phone calls to have you rectify the bill. I called 2 or 3 times before this bill came out and was assured that it would not happen again. And as expected it has. Absolutely disgusting service!

It’s a shame @Virgin only look after new customers & punish old customers. One less customer because of New Cystomer deals not available to look after current ones #ShameOnYou #Virgin #Virginmedia

@virginmedia Construction issues apparently but we had an engineer out 3 weeks ago who said it was an easy fit so not sure why further delays. Very frustrating trying to speak to staff, spent almost 10hours on the phone trying to get answers. Wish we could just cancel and get a refund!

If you are about to switch or upgrade to @bt_uk for your own sanity don’t. My upgrade has disconnected me from 6/4/21 to 4/5/21 and been replaced with a useless 4g connection (13up/2down) @virginmedia how do you treat customers offering you more money???

(@Keogh1122) reported
@virginmedia Thanks SL @virginmedia for the prompt reply, but sending me the number of you Chat Bot isn’t really providing support is it when not even your customer care team can help. Just proves the lack of customer service provided by @virginmedia #substandard

@virginmedia No point though as not even your customer care team can help. So just thought I’d advertise my dismay at your customer service on here and your showing how bad it really is.
