@virginmedia I’ve had no services since February 5th and have spoken to at least 5 people in various departments who keep saying my services will be restored but still no service 16 days later. I would appreciate help.

@virginmedia quit harassing me to return your kit. It took 2 days on the phone post price hikes to cancel services now your customer contact options loop to nowhere. You haven't even sent a return kit or courier so ffs stop bombarding with texts & emails to send your router back!

Well after 20 years of being a loyal @skytv customer its time to leave. They have taken my custom for granted expecting me to accept poor customer service well I won't & I'm not. @skytv loss is very much @virginmedia gain.

@agmshankar @virginmedia Considering doing the same, they have increased the package price again this year (that's the second year in a row) and the network reliability seems to be getting increasingly worse in our area at least.

@virginmedia Done that! Many, many times. The problem - as we all know - is your signal. Why can’t you as a company admit that your system is just not working for many of your customers and do something about it?

@virginmedia This is the problem within VM, everyone ks quick to apologise but not quite so quick to help customers that are quite clearly having problems with the service.

@virginmedia Ok will try once more. I’ve given them the “ticket” reference that they said was sent to the technical team to fix.

@virginmedia Hi there, so i have called your call centre approximately 5 times with no resolution, had 2 agents hang up on me as they couldnt understand what my problem was, and i a supposed to be waiting for a manager to call me back after a complaint was logged. This is not good enough.

@virginmedia She was specifically told by virgin not to contact her old provider - she's reported the issue to you and made various complaints about the internet either not working and speed but nobody has taken any action to investigate or remedy the situation

Hi @virginmedia just had scam call pretending to be you asking me to download Team Viewer. It's ok - I'm a web professional so knew it's a scam (also I don't use Virgin any more - sorry!). They made me put your domain into the W3C validator to show me the "errors" I was getting!

@virginmedia Spoke too soon... happened again last night and the night before, exact same time period as before. 🤨 Think I'll have to escalate this with customer services. At this rate I'm not going to get a clear explanation here.

(@tbradman) reported
@virginmedia Sorry - done all that many times before! The community was useless - no answers there. Can’t speak to anyone in the phone - you can’t offer any help or explanations that mean anything - what kind of service is that?
