@virginmedia shocking service and support this weekend in the Dudley area. Service constantly down and getting fobbed of by call Center staff asking to reset routers saying it will all work? Now no ones picking up in fact you just keep cut people off and no options to complain?

@virginmedia Waited over an hour on hold only to be hung up on by an extremely rude call centre operative after explaining I’m trying to administer my father’s account as he’s just died! @virginmedia you disgust me!

@virginmedia After a couple more wasted hours and speaking to two more useless, rude and incompetent call centre operatives your customer retention team actually listened. Might help if ALL your call centres were UK based and had some compassion.

@virginmedia Does anyone at Virginmedia ever actually answer phones? Calling from my parent’s number, supposed to be listed as vulnerable/priority. No answer for over 40 minutes! The hold music is torture, and zero indication of how long the queue is! Your customer service sucks!

@AksTailor @virginmedia When I had some issues like that I haggled a month or two of free Internet from Virgin until the issue was resolved. Convincing them to do that took an infuriating number of phone calls but it was a satisfactory outcome, I've stuck with them.

@virginmedia It's not an issues according to the site. It's working on wired connections. I'll be looking for compensation after this. If the costomer tells you there's a problem then take their word they're the ones paying you, why would they spend money other than to get what they pay for.
