@virginmedia Shame your customer service agents on the phone don't seem to feel the same. You cancelled my TV & BB before agreed date, agreed to re-instate which turns out to be a lie as now refusing to unless I agree to a long term contract. Astonishing awful treatmeant

@RUTrainingToday @virginmedia Also Talk talk. Probably worse still. And to be totally fair, I was once on BT and the engineer literally told me they play pass the problem parcel at the junction when one person complains by just switching wires around. At this stage I have no reason to doubt that.

@virginmedia Off and on for over a year - whenever we’ve tried to sort account systems seem to be down and support tried updating software which made no difference- box is very old now

@virginmedia Since we are back at the beginning, no further along the road with your suggestion to spend another hour of my time on the phone fixing your problem, will you cover my phone bill this time?

@virginmedia I'm trying convey that your website and chatbot appear to be out of sync. Chatbot provides info and links that don't work, which seems to be a bit of a problem when all upgrade paths are funnelled through the chatbot. Even the 'Chat Now' button is a no-op

@virginmedia Appreciate you following up. It's on back on now but yesterday morning was a nightmare in Exeter with the internet off from 8-10. Was not in the mood for one of your ads popping up after having to cancel several important meetings yesterday morning.
