Natasha Gorrie (@tashaj1984) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia I have posted but not sure how a forum post will help. Can you advise of your official escalation complaint process
-
A Rintsie (@arintsie) reported from Marlow Bottom, England@virginmedia You keep cutting me off when I call ! / just email the complaint number to a member of your UK team and ask them to call me, really not that hard
-
Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia Internet keeps disconnecting. Called, useless as always. Intermittent issues or connectivity issues. Just send an engineer to check, why wait for another 24h when this is an ongoing issue. I've even reset the hub, still same issues.
-
Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia I don't know. You never answer the phone when I call you.
-
Callum Penny (@callum_penny) reported from Fleet, England@virginmedia no WiFi for the past 4 hours now… have ran tests to solve issues. Says service is fine in area again now but still nothing? Gu52 area code
-
gonzo (@pears0) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia so, I've been trying for over 3 hours now to cancel my contract and absolutely no progress made so far!!! 3 hours. Surely this is a breach of ofcoms rules to make cancellation a reasonably quick and easy process!?
-
Becky Morrish (@BeckyMorrish13) reported from Camberley, EnglandUseless service from @virginmedia called 2 discuss package options on hold for ages the agent says he was trying to help them puts me on hold then put the phone down. If their customer service is like that I think I’ll try give someone else a go @skytv can you do better?
-
Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia @elise_john85 So you're whacking up Elsie's cost because you have more customers (who are presumably also paying you) using the service, and you want to use Elsie extra £4.50 / month so you can invest in services that attract even more customers?!? Get in the bin!
-
FFR Tweets💥🚀 (@FfrTweets) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia really difficult to get connected with an agent and some decent support, been trying to reach for days, just get Bots! @richardbranson
-
Cameron🏴 (@CRJG_) reported from Bracknell, EnglandHuge congrats to @virginmedia for having a web chat service that is so bad that I joined the chat to upgrade my broadband, but after waiting for an eternity for replies I’m pretty much ready to just close my account
-
Ems (@EmsAlice) reported from Bracknell, England@virginmedia We just purchased a film from the media store and it won’t play - just is stuck at 0 minutes 😡 we’ve restarted our box but always have problems like this with catch up especially… not ideal when we’ve paid money to rent a film! Can you help at all?
-
Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia It about moving house. As Virgin is unavailable at the new residence and the move is only temporary I was told in two separate calls that I could ‘freeze’ my account and now it’s come to it it seems that I have to keep paying whilst not receiving any service or buy myself out!
-
Nattytude (@nattytude) reported from Fleet, England@virginmedia Internet is down in GU51 since yesterday. When will it be up? Can't report it online, because we have no internet for it to check with!
-
Tim Bourne (@TimSBourne) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia I'm sick of explaining this again & again - see previous tweets & msgs to VM. It isn't even noted - yesterday 2nd line support looked at my ticket & said I'm "not receiving any emails" NO NO NO! Just emails with etickets attached, even tho get non ticket emails from same sources
