@virginmedia @nikkijcar Answer me for god sake! Do you think maybe when your existing customers are using your “moving home” service they might be busy oh I don’t know... moving home? So don’t have time to wait around for your engineer 90 minutes after their appointment?

@virginmedia Thank you for your reply. We had a technician out over 5 weeks ago to check the landline. He told us the cable in the road was damaged and it would take 10 days to fix. That was nearly 6 weeks ago and we have heard nothing since and can’t get through to your customer services.

Bizarre help bot from @virginmedia - do you really think it's acceptable to ask for my bank account sort code when verifying my details?! How about you... just don't ask that.

@virginmedia Hey, my broadband is down. Your website says there is a known service issue. Can you advise when it’s coming back up, as I’m working from home and need access.

@Thecarmagdriver @virginmedia 1) ISP hardware is total shite (Virgin in Particular) don’t use it. It is worth what you paid for it £0. 2) Draytek router and Ruckus wifi (connected via Cat6) is what you need to distribute throughout house (a single WiFi point is never going to work)! 3) it will cost money!

First morning back at work, and true to form #virginmedia have underlined their uselessness with no broadband in NW5. They want to increase prices, yet do not provide a decent service - how am I meant to #workfromhome ?

@virginmedia I spent over an hour on hold today trying to speak with someone about cancelling. I ended up having to put the phone down. How an earth can I cancel my contract if the only way to do it is by calling and you don’t answer the phone?!

@virginmedia your customer process to report a deceased account holder to cancel services is an absolute shambles, been on hold for 2 hours, no links on your website to do it. Thank god I’m with @SkyUK

@benchappers83 @virginmedia Unacceptable! Fight them, this can’t be right. They can’t do whatever they please. Change provider if your rights as customer are not respected.

@virginmedia That just repeats previous fault message. And ironically asks me to go to the website to check status. All I want at this point from @virginmedia is an estimate of when this will be fixed (I know u can’t fix it)

@virginmedia Yes after a 5 hour outage during a key work time did me it came back up. But I’m more disappointed in the delay in customer service response time.

@virginmedia our cable doesn’t fit as it should (we were told an easy installation and just the box is required), and my partner is getting no response from anyone to help...? Just moved into a new flat with no wifi now so not ideal

@stephfriend_ @virginmedia It’s infuriating. They deliberately make you phone as the only way to cancel, then just leave you on hold

Does anyone know of a service worse than @virginmedia? Our home phone went down 5 weeks ago and we were promised an engineer in 10 days, yet still no one has come. I have tried ringing the customer help number a number of times but after about 1 hour 15 mins it rings off. Help!

@virginmedia Engineer booked for Tuesday. I spoke to Ezra on your team who was brilliant in fairness. Very apologetic about the level of service and now looks like we need planning permission to dig up the road to fix the cable.🥴 Thanks for your responses and happy new year!

@virginmedia I believe my phone number has been used fraudulently/used by accident as I keep receiving messages from you, but I’m not a customer and don’t have an account. How do I talk to someone?

@virginmedia price got put up and then I look and find a new customer deal that’s better than what I have and cheaper. Why do loyal customers get ****** over? Can I talk to someone who actually knows what they’re talking about please
