  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Last pt... a helpful member of the community just advised me to text a random mobile number for help. May be innocent but I have no idea if that is a @virginmedia number ... feels a little suspicious / could be a scam? Hope the moderators track these types of things too.

    Anyone looking for truly appalling customer service? With terrible communications? Try one of the UK’s leading comms company @virginmedia - great example of how to truly undervalue customers with poor and dismissive service #poor #CustomerExperience #CustomerService

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I understand that but if it’s not related to virgin how did they get my service provider and date payment is due,customer services are aware of this,as a service provider have you informed potential victims that this has happened?

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia It wasn’t an email it was a text message I have reported it and they are aware of it if it’s nothing to do with a data breach how do they know my service provider, mobile number and day the bill is supposed to be paid?

  • TheRealNigsy Nigsy (@TheRealNigsy) reported from Newport, Wales

    Anybody else lost there #VirginMedia internet services, getting stupid now as I'm loosing money not being able to work... @virginmedia

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia You can, I assume this is potentially an agency who is managing their social media accounts. So you can kindly pass these on to a manager from the complaints team please. This is beyond poor customer service!

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Received a text message with a link saying that my bill had not been paid and update my details checked my bank and paid that day customer services confirmed this also this is the second time this has happened why does my information keep getting breached?

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Okay I'll keep paying you for something that doesn't work and wait for another customer to advise how to resolve the issue... or if I'm really lucky a moderator might get in touch... 👌 Is there an SLA?

  • emmalouise_ions Emma Ions (@emmalouise_ions) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Nett13y @virginmedia It’s always internet we’ve had a issue with TV has been fine. Shocking service.

  • emmalouise_ions Emma Ions (@emmalouise_ions) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Good Morning @virginmedia please can you kindly contact me DM or send me your complaints email address please awful service at customer service. #notahqppycustomer

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia can you tell me who I need to escalate the issue I have regarding my data being breached again for the second time in around 18 months I have spoken to customer services who have confirmed you are aware and investigating?????

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia pls can you help? Website and app help doesn't address the technical issues and don't provide way to contact you. Phoned 150, automated system said it would update & restart TV. Nothing happened. Can't watch recorded programmes since 12th Oct. Frustrating!

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @adamburgessevan @virginmedia They are absolutely TERRIBLE at customer service

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Only from customers hypothesising what the issue is... appreciate the help but not going to resolve anything.

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Hello, raised a complaint yesterday at 11:00am, told I’d get a call back within 24 hours - no call, so what’s the next exhausting step?

  • emmalouise_ions Emma Ions (@emmalouise_ions) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Nett13y @virginmedia Hi. No never spoke to anyone. Gone to BT.

  • Sionedwards Siôn Edwards 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 (@Sionedwards) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    ....and now that I’m led to wonder if I might get better service elsewhere re internet provider, can anybody advise on their experience of quitting @virginmedia ?

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia right - how on earth do you actually speak to someone in your team? If I have issues with my broadband, it’s not exactly practical to advise me to head to your website! Any options on how to speak to someone?

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia is there anybody in your customer services department today?

  • WildthingJ74 Johnathan Williams (@WildthingJ74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @emmalouise_ions @virginmedia @skytv They won't even want to talk to customers. Had same recorded message fobbing you off to the site even though that doesn't help with what I need

  • Edgeymon Edgey ♦ ♣ (@Edgeymon) reported

    @vixfaz_ @HPSupport Try Virgin Media when trying to cancel a contact/speak to retentions. I started by web portal, was advised to call, which resulted in being moved a text chain and then eventually to whatsapp all in the space of 90 minutes.

  • ziahlunar Kezzy - EDS Fibro ADHD (@ziahlunar) reported

    @wolfnsunflowers @virginmedia Did they fix it?

  • jasonpeacock8 Jason Peacock (@jasonpeacock8) reported

    @virginmedia 4 days of terrible broadband and tv in the whole area, and you want me to pay 100% of my bill. Come April when you want to boost your bills will be my way out.
