@virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

@virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

@virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

@virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

@PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

@virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

@virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

@virginmedia Can anyone help please? I have just spent an hour on live chat trying to claim compensation for complete loss of service in early June. Chat disconnected before issue was resolved.

Tom
(@tommygoodlove) reported
@virginmedia I have just spent an hour on a 'chat' to query why automatic compensation wasn't paid for a complete loss of broadband service from 4th to 13th June. Foobed off,I was offered £7 for the whole period, then had to educate the agent on the scheme rules. Very poor.

@virginmedia @allpointseastuk Hi :) I cancelled my account with you guys and even received a confirmation email that the account was cancelled. However, I have just received an email saying that my bill is due in 3 days. As you can imagine, I am not very happy to pay for a service that is not being rendered

@virginmedia I love your roaming charges when I have to call my bank and you cut me off with your subpar service after a 45 minute wait and I have to pay £90 for your incompetent service. Cheers

THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED
(@MemePoet) reported
@virginmedia I have stayed at home 3x instead of going to work for someone to come and collect a wifi box to 0 success. I’ve never received a postage box to send back the wifi. I’ve never withheld or refused to return the box.
