David Bryden (@Daveyb1974) reported from Urmston, England
@nickleeland @virginmedia I asked to speak to someone that could help and got “my supervisor is on 14 day isolation”. Ok put him on the phone as I’m guessing he can work from home? Computer says no! Poor poor service!

Christine Thompson (@magpiegirl80) reported from Bolton, England
@virginmedia ....before going to lunch. Your system is set to terminate unanswered calls after just over an hour. This is much more enraging than having to wait in a queue. We’re British, it’s what we do. We DO NOT HANG UP on people. It is beyond rude. #rude #virginmediasuck #stillnointernet

Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England
Nearly a week after signing up to a new contract with @virginmedia they’ve still not upgraded my speed to what we agreed to. Their Twitter support refuses to acknowledge the issue and my complaint hasn’t been picked up yet. I guess they don’t care once a contract is agreed.

@virginmedia Another issue is if I were to get a phone call in a weeks time I cannot just stop the job I do to answer it. Where will we be then? Having worked for Virgin I know exactly what’s going to happen. This won’t get sorted until my new bill gets paid for services I don’t want ....

Humps Snr (@HumpsSnr) reported from Stockport, England
@virginmedia What details do you require in any text I send?? Seems a bit odd considering you should already have my complaint and my details 🤔 we’ve established I don’t have a ref number, so further info will assist??
-
Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England
@virginmedia There’s no known issues. I shouldn’t have to spend 30 mins on hold trying to get through to you to have an issue corrected that hasn’t been done as part of my contract agreement. Shouldn’t you be able to call customers when you have an agent free who can make outgoing calls?
-
David Bryden (@Daveyb1974) reported from Urmston, England
Great work from @virginmedia, your contract has expired, we want you to stay as a customer, we’ll give you the best deal out there! Give them a call, sorry can’t help, you’re on the best package, but we want to charge you £40 a month more than a new customer! #shitshow

⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England
@virginmedia It’s NOT an upgrade which I made clear on the phone. Again, no mention of this being the issue.
-
Humps Snr (@HumpsSnr) reported from Stockport, England
@virginmedia I don’t. When I submitted the complaint (2nd) I chose the telephone call option, using my home number. I haven’t received any call to date!!
-
CharlotteJadeDuffy❀ (@XCharlotteJadeX) reported from Warrington, England
@virginmedia please can someone help me cancel my contract, I move house in a few weeks and have been trying to get through to you many different ways with no luck for over a month now, I need to sort this ASAP, thanks

⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England
Hey @virginmedia On the phone to your customer service for 80 minutes in total now and counting. Been put on hold for 30 minutes of that. Losing will to live! Pound to a penny you lot cut me off in a minute......
-
Humps Snr (@HumpsSnr) reported from Stockport, England
@virginmedia Thank you for your response. I have submitted a complaint, although I’ve no response to that either. Our internet is shocking and we’ve got a temp fix outside which needs to be made permanent from 4 wks ago. Paying a lot for nothing currently
-
⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England
@virginmedia Bet you anything they won’t I’m sorry to say. Never known a change in contract to take a week. Normally done there and then on the phone. The lady didn’t mention anything about this being the case. What now? I’m not waiting a week I’m afraid.
-
Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England
@virginmedia The text messaging team that says it aims to respond within 4 hours but hasn’t responded to me since 11am yesterday? Basically I have no option now but to sit on hold in a queue for 30+ mins to fix a problem you’ve created by not upgrading me. Your customer service is awful.
-
Humps Snr (@HumpsSnr) reported from Stockport, England
Over 3 hours and counting on the phone to @virginmedia , spoken to 5 different people and put on hold for the 6th time now. Issue yet to be resolved 🤬🤬🤬 #vpoorcustomerservice #timeforachange

macauley stephens (@m_stephens8) reported from Bolton, England
@virginmedia is the worst for speaking to an actually person🤯 adding packages unauthorised then making the bill nearly double.. jokers
-
Christine Thompson (@magpiegirl80) reported from Bolton, England
@virginmedia The hold times aren’t the issue. I’d wait happily if I got an answer at the end. The issue is being hung up on after an hour then having a call answered only to have to listen to dead air for over 30 minutes while whoever is supposed to be helping has forgotten to logout ....1/2
-
Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England
@virginmedia I get the same result hard wired with Ethernet too. It’s not a wifi issue. Also I’m not sure how wifi would decide to ignore an increase in speed and decide to limit itself to the old speed coincidentally. Someone on your end hasn’t enabled the faster speed to my property.
-
Jamie McDonald (@lambtiger) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England
Truly appalling customer service from @virginmedia. Due an engineer visit today: he’s just rung to say your call centre raised the job incorrectly and he’s not coming as they don’t carry the stock any more. No apology, no lifeline, no empathy. Shocking.
-
Christine Thompson (@magpiegirl80) reported from Bolton, England
@virginmedia we have been trying to arrange our virgin services to be moved to our new house since 23/11/20. We were supposed to get a call back from one of your guys yesterday to help with a self install - no joy. Since yesterday I’ve spent over 3 hours on hold, been.......1/4

@virginmedia I already did, they left me a message on my answer phone and never contacted me again and closed the complaint, and getting back through on the phone is a nightmare.. but you seem to have a lot of staff doing those outgoing calls hey!

@andytaylor03 @virginmedia Watch out with him, he is a liar, he then deletes his tweets, ask for someone else to help you.

@JessieB_22 @virginmedia That is ridiculous! Unbelievable, I've had a great experience with them for 2 years and now everything went to ****.

Lillian 🏳️⚧️ - boostered (@Lillian_C14) reported
My phone has terrible WiFi. Same access point at home (connected via a 100mbps ethernet port on the access point to the main Virgin Media supplied router via wired, since theres a concrete wall between the router and me so a second access point helps with reliability)

@virginmedia @DonaldMacleod01 Still, waiting on you John, maybe Mr Macleod needs to spend tens of thousands of pounds to update his equipment as it's never your equipment that failed, is it?

Alex Kebby-Jones (@AKebbyJones) reported
@virginmedia I am only getting 3mb DL this morning making calls difficult I should be getting 100mb, your website says no problems - help

@virginmedia Just had a series of phone calls from people claiming to represent VM, checking on broadband strength. The last call ended with your rep telling me "...you're wasting my time. **** you!" Is this what you teach in call centre school?
