Jack 🏴 (@kriegarjack) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia They have the absolute worst customer support these days too. Virgin media was great before they merged with O2. Now they are absolute garbage
-
WeHearYou (@WeHearYou2020) reported@virginmedia @rafthemaster Language barrier was a big problem. Not the advisors fault but trying to explain our issue has left us without a box for two weeks and a remote control sent out that we did not request or need. Any solution @virginmedia
-
David (@David52578899) reported@virginmedia @PeteUK7 That’s an excuse, not a reason. Nobody cares if your records were not fully updated, that’s your problem.
-
PerfectMe (@perfectme1122) reported@virginmedia Called to cancel contract. Given offer of £32 for 2 years. Checked contract to find it rose to £36 in April ‘27 and £40 in April ‘28. Customer service rep insisted it was inflation rise but contract states it’s in addition to. Contract now cancelled after 15+yrs 😕.

Managed to get through to a human at 07:45 was told outage in my area but it was being worked on & would be back in about an hour. It’s still down & can’t get through to anyone for an update
-
mike gorman💙 (@MonsterMikeyG) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia I cancelled @virginmedia after 15years last week as my bill hit £200. They offered me a decent package but I said no. Phoned me over 6 times over the next 2 days before I answered only for them to offer me a worse deal than the one I turned down. Madness
-
On The Right Side (@antiprotests) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia I’m sorry for your loss, this interaction with @virginmedia just goes to show how “important” the customer journey is to all of the big communications companies. They are just interested in new customers and have little care or empathy with their existing customers.
