Dr Stower and the Stock Market of Madness 🦍 (@1CreativeRay) reported from Wainscott, England@virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

Scott Wickham (@Scott_Wic) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia My request to support was about the hub5 and some Wi-Fi extenders/boosters which I’m entitled to, they said that it was sorted and would be in the post and now only the hub5 has turned up!!! Does this mean I have to contact support again…….

Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.
-

-
egneg (@egneg) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia Let contract run out then ring virgin and cancel, sign up to sky, literally next day virgin ring you and offer the earth. Then just ring sky again and cancel. Works every time I promise.
-
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.
-
Noely Daniels (@noel33330) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia Never understand why companies do this … same goes for insurance companies.
-
Dr Stuart Woolley (@FractalDoctor) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia Had exactly the same situation last year with a close relative. Complete shambles that took many mails and waiting on hold on the phone to resolve, then sending back boxes of crap that would no doubt go into landfill. I'd recommend avoiding them at all costs, for anyone.
-
Tino 🐧🌋 (@TinoElduderino) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia They will offer you login to the website new deal if you do the chat with an agent or speak to some in the phone if you are willing to lock in for a new contract.
-
🇬🇧 FI is awesome 😎 (@GrahamCompton) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia Leave. Send back the equipment at their cost. Get your partner to order a new contract via a comparison site. Claim cashback. Been there, done that. Totally nuts customer service by Virgin.
