@virginmedia It’s coming up to 3 hours wait on WhatsApp on TOP of 3 hours of phone calls. Do your teams compete for the worst service levels @virginmedia ?

@virginmedia I don’t have a problem with mine. I changed it to a different router a couple of years and all of the problems that everybody experiences; such as dropping Wi-Fi disappeared.

@virginmedia Not ‘sorry hit you’ll need to get into another queue for hours and hours because it’s another team and we can’t help you’ That is not how to treat customers. In any business. Someone needs to take ownership of a situation. Truly terrible customer service. #virginmedia

@virginmedia So @virginmedia what do I do when your phone team tells me they can’t do anything and it’s down to the WhatsApp team who don’t do anything ? What is the next turn? I have a contract offer I want to accept but can’t ?

@virginmedia Sorry but the old ‘we don’t have email addresses’ doesn’t work. Everyone does. It’s just company policy not to hand them out. The key issue is that with this level of service, someone should say ‘leave it with us, we’ll look into it and someone will get back to you’ 1/2

@virginmedia Is anyone actually reading my tweets… I’ve called 10+ times and no one seems able to help!? Apparently no one here can either…

@StephenD1402 @virginmedia It’s the router Steve. The free Virgin router is the problem. Buy a new router from someone like Asus and turn the Virgin one to Modem mode. Should solve most problems.

@virginmedia None. Last three phone calls were cut off. I don’t really want to phone again, spend 20 minutes only to be cut off again. Can you help ?

@virginmedia Hi virgin just rang the phone number you have gave us to call but we went through using the key pad and then all you said was we will send a text message with way to fix which don’t work.

@virginmedia And to re-emphasise what I’ve said countless times before; you’re wasting peoples time, because you don’t tell them that it is your router that causes most of the problems. Can’t believe @Ofcom allow this.

@virginmedia Hi I’ve tried using the link you sent to fix our problem but it keeps just turn off and restarting itself. It happens whether we watch live tv or recorded programmes.

@virginmedia @Ofcom - can you help with this situation? As you monitor, telecoms companies; Do you think 3-hours worth of phone calls, being cut off 3 times and 80 minutes on WhatsApp (and counting) is good enough service from @virginmedia just to renew a contract ? #virginmedia

@virginmedia Totally shocking service from your team today. Nearly 2 hours of calls. Cut off; not being put through to disconnections and effectively being called a liar. Interested @virginmedia ? @MartinSLewis one for you

@virginmedia So @virginmedia my contract has finally been resolved. 3 hours of phone calls in 24-hrs (including phone being cut off 3 times) 6 hours of WhatsApp Failure to honour contract offers. Shambles of a company. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. #virginmedia #fail

@gashead @virginmedia Bizarre that it’s not actually Kelly causing an issue yet they’re being very helpful for me! Unfortunately not sorted! Honestly lost all faith in it being resolved. Never had such an issue trying to get an answer from a company. Hope you get sorted too!

Dreadful sales call from @virginmedia. I need broadband, Sky & BT sports. Best deal requires having a load of unwanted extras apparently. No attempt to qualify my needs just clearly underpaid & commission desperate sales staff relying on a very bad script. #badservice #badselling

@DuskyMoko @virginmedia it's so ****. does anyone have a phone with a good data plan that could be temporarily used as a mobile wifi hotspot?

@virginmedia your internet service is extremely poor and then I’m told you guys don’t guarantee WiFi & try to upsell me a product that also doesn’t guarantee a stable connection. Customer service is abysmal & your offshore call centre is far from helpful. Absolutely fuming 😡

@virginmedia Not unhappy with current offers. It's just that as an existing customer of 17+ years they're not available to me. When I look on My @Virginmedia page to see what I can get, it just says call. But one can spend hours on multiple calls that get cut off after holding for an hour.

Trying to get a refund for my recently widowed 87yr old mother in law from @virginmedia which really shouldn’t even be an issue. 1hr 30mins on the phone, 4 different customer advisors and no further. Embarrassing and a little degrading @BAFTA

.@virginmedia, true fibre broadband, 1GB, coming to my property, but yet, no news from @OpenreachHelp regarding #FTTP. In conclusion, Virgin has the money to install FTTP, OpenR doesn't. I suspect it will install eventually, but being a customer, disappointed it is not sooner :(

@virginmedia I’ve been waiting for an agent for over an hour now on your Live Chat - why does it take so long? This is totally unacceptable customer service
