-
Addy (@iadnan9) reported@AlloquiStrix @virginmedia Reported an issue 2 months ago and only just received a response. The advice given was unhelpful, careless, and frankly unprofessional. The issue is still ongoing with Now being told it could take another 28 days for a follow-up. Completely unacceptable and a waste of time.

Andrea (@Gertrudemo81) reported@virginmedia Hi. We are having broadband issues in our area. It says fixed date 17th April. Surely that can’t be right? A week away to fix it??
-

Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported@virginmedia I've just wasted 55 minutes of my life trying to talk to your 'customer services' dept. Both the staff members I spoke to could barely communicate in English, and the line kept breaking up... until it died altogether. Wasted time, no resolution, and huge frustration. You're supposed to be a COMMUNICATIONS company! What am I expected to do now? Go through that same shambolic exercise again?

LoobyLou1970 🇬🇧🏴 (@ldp17470) reportedWhy is your support so appallingly bad? @virginmedia Been waiting for almost ½ hour to get to speak with someone on the phone and the chatbot on the app has just gone silent on me. My 360 box won't boot up, tried everything to fix it...1/2
