    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia I rang pre installs 3 times last week, spending an average of 1hr on the phone, getting no where nobody in preinstalls can tel me what’s going on, they just promise to get someone to call me. That call never happens

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia This is the second time the complaint has been raised as the first one was ignored. It’s literally a joke and very ironic that I need to complain about the complaints department.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia the worst customer service I’ve ever encountered. 6 cancelled installs, no broadband, no Tv, no heating. Unable to work thanks to virgin media. No resolution in sight, just empty promises and apologies.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately no end in sight. I had to make another call to Virgin today. It took 40 minutes before I was talking to someone. It seems Virgin are not capable to get this over the line without me pushing them onto the next step and following up to make sure things are done. Poor

    Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    @virginmedia It's both. I have been doing some digging and it's the upload speeds. They are not getting anywhere over 2MB /sec which is not good enough. It has been very slow over the last couple of days

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia It seems like nobody @ Virgin is willing to intervene and sort this out. As a result Virgin just keep setting install dates and cancelling. The cycle repeats over and over. Customer service don’t help, despite me calling everyday.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia The installation is still not complete! That’s the problem. Virgin was ordered on 2nd oct. First install was planned on 17/10 and then cancelled by Virgin. Virgin have cancelled 8-10 times since. It’s now 08/12! 52 days and counting

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Further to this, my install date has now been pushed back to 13/12. A quarter of a year later than quoted. This is unacceptable and the joke is, it won’t even happen then! It’ll get pushed back again. My partner is pregnant and Virgin are seriously letting us down. Shameful

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Come on! This is as lazy as your customer service. Of course I have service.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Every one of your engineers that I’ve spoken to have also warned me that your customer service is diabolical. The only truth I’ve been told by a Virgin rep

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Well you said that on webchat you can’t do anything but raise a complaint for me. I called the pre-installs team again who have once again left a note for the area install manager to call. This note has been left several times, and of course - he doesn’t call. This is stuck.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Your pre-installs team cannot assist either. It seems nobody can actually help.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Yes. A third party has just arrived to pull cables and they can’t do their work because Virgin haven’t actioned the construction. 9 weeks down the line and it hasn’t even been actioned from your end. So poor.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia I guarantee you they cannot help. I call every day, usually spending over an hour on the phone. The pre-installs team only promise me a call back from someone who can help, within 24-48hrs. The call back never comes, despite further requests for this to happen. Explain that?

  • DIZZYDJC
    Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    My internet is painfully slow tonight. Checked my router and it's not that, it's the internet itself. What is going on @virginmedia ? Your status says no faults but I can assure you there is. I am paying for 1GB bb and so far only reaching speeds of about 2.25 mb- explain??

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia @NetflixUK You may as well not have a customer services team. I’ve spoken to one helpful person in the 53 days I’ve been chasing Virgin for my install.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia The call back was organised by your virgin customer services because nobody seems to know what’s going on with my install. I think the hope was that the area manager might know. I’m not even exaggerating.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Look back through my previous tweets. After 3 months of cancellations from Virgin, lies and let downs - I’ve had to cancel the agreement completely

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Still no call. Still no service. Still no customer support whatsoever from virgin media.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia This has already been dealt with yea, we’re continuing just because it feels as if we’ve waited too long to cancel now. Plus, Virgin are crediting me £5.35 for every day of delay that they’ve caused (55 days and counting).

    @virginmedia Is that because your service is so poor and customer service is non existent 🤔🤔. Interesting you never have issues taking money that does not belong to you.

  • KevinSaunders23
    Kefaloniaman23 (@KevinSaunders23) reported

    @virginmedia No it’s not showing! For goodness sake, I just want this problem sorted out once and for all, I’m paying a lot of money and not getting anywhere with your fault team

  • jimmysunny85
    jimmy rae (@jimmysunny85) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and again was told it was my fault because of my phone even though the phone worked fine before and still does,so again it's either I get back what I paid for last year and never got or the price remains the same,if the price goes up even £1 I will cancel and want my refund!

  • toriat5
    Victoria Tolson (@toriat5) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting for your customer services to help me, luckily my new sims arrived in the 2 hours I’ve been waiting so now I can call

  • GurjinderSingh
    GurjinderSingh (@GurjinderSingh) reported

    @virginmedia Been trying now for three days straight through both calls (lasting several hours at a time) and the whatsapp chat (days) to get through to someone so I can cancel my subscription before the next bill date on the 7th....

  • KalpsBul
    Kalpesh (@KalpsBul) reported

    @virginmedia Been on the phone for 30mins, still waiting for someone from VirginMedia Customer Services to take the call !!!!!! Anyone home ?

  • SimaxPep
    Pep Simax (@SimaxPep) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your response. Unfortunately it’s really not good enough and I know others have had the same issue about not being told. Your sales person convinced us to stay but didn’t at any point tell us about the recordings being wiped. We should have gone to Sky

  • LadyBrienne1
    GinFuelledCassandra💙 (@LadyBrienne1) reported

    @positivesarah @virginmedia Oh ffs. And I love how they say it’s easy to set up when it isn’t if you need another extra router to give a strong signal to the rest of the house.

    @virginmedia In my house was the worst and also the most times it has cut out. That's the WA3 2 area

    @Clive_Burt @virginmedia Exactly - Call them, email them, send smoke signals.... nothing is going to get done and Im not even going to be able to end my contract and get away from this mess. WORST COMPANY IN THE WORLD
