    Spend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

    @lennylaw @virginmedia There's an exception to every rule. Usually they're crap. Certainly the worst company I've ever had the misfortune to deal with.

  • Malcolm_Sillick
    Malcolm Sillick (@Malcolm_Sillick) reported

    @London_W4 The trouble is that O2 are now in bed with Virgin Media, who also have dreadful Indian 'Tech Support', who can't sort anying out and just read from scripts. Like many companies these days, if you can even find a phone number, they just give loads of messages, telling you to go to their website. The UK could do with a dose of American style customer service!!

    @virginmedia Still waiting on your chat agent - to say he/she is incompetent would be the mother of all understatements. And yes, I've tried calling in the past, and that experience was so frustratingly pointless that I'm never trying again.
