-

Mrs c (@w47carr) reportedWhen you have to use 4g because @virginmedia is down due to storm 😡😡
-
Mark Logan | Ecommerce Consultant (@mlogandigital) reportedSo you get a bill from @virginmedia to say your bill is doubling from tomorrow but can't get in touch with anyone on support to sort it out. @skytv just come and take my money
-
SJA505 (@SJA505) reported@virginmedia @PeteUK7 3months to update an auto send template. Media savvy VM at the cutting edge of tech and customer service.
-
Kris (yes it's actually spelt with a K) (@kobraman88) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia Stupid ***** tried to offer me a "deal" for my broadband after i had been on a rolling contract for a while that was more expensive (£75pm), managed to grind them down to a decent price and the morons didn't even put me on a new contract so left and went with HyperOptic for £25pm
-
Chris Stephenson (@4sec7) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia Cancel. Then they will Hassle you daily as you get closer to cut off day offering you the same deal (or better!) you asked for in the first place
-
Syni (@Synifx) reported@marlino @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Just speculating based on industry patterns. A lot of the understaffing has come because companies think that AI is the future, despite how incompetent it still is at customer service matters. More stuff gets escalated to fewer people.
-
Angeltt (@Angeltt_tt) reported@PeteUK7 @IDHDRUM @virginmedia Win95 wouldve taken 3 weeks, not 3 months, theyre lying ******* trying to save face for their disgusting behaviour. Theyre predators, mis-selling + overcharging for services they simply arent (+ never) providing + their service as a whole is worse than running on timed dial up.
-
irons1de (@irons1de1) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia Having the same issue with @virginmedia I just have the internet with them and they have just doubled my price and won’t offer anything where as a new customer can get the same deal for just over £20 it’s disgusting no incentive to remain a customer with them
-
Fletch (@ItsMeFletch_) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia Proper *****…! When my old man died, I called into tell them and try to cancel, explained that I was doing all I could when the call handler asked “could I speak to the account holder to confirm the details” Absolute **** stain of a company.
-
Deborah Guina (@DeborahGuina1) reported@alisterrussell @PeteUK7 @virginmedia My sis in law was in ICU on a ventilator, I had just brought my brother back from another hospital after an MI. A debt collector for a utility Co knocked at his door. Atm the hospital rang to say we had to go down ( SIL later died) the debt guy said not to worry & offered a lift!
