Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@OldSparky6 @virginmedia I’m never going with them again. Genuinely don’t know how they are still a company that is allowed to operate when the customer service is this bad!
-
Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, EnglandHi @virginmedia @helpvirginmedia @VirginMediaCorp why won’t my Outlook connect to your server? No emails for 3 days. It’s an issue your end yet no help from your tech team.
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, WalesAnother day in the life of a @virginmedia customer. TV showing fault. Ran online diagnostics, didn't fix. Site says to call. Call. Go through menu, TV, fault... sends me a text with a link to online diagnostics, says "thanks for calling" and hangs up. Worst. Company. Ever.

damian Kerlin 🏳️🌈 (@damianKerlin) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Yes, and it is a different issue every time. How, in a capital city, is this happening everyday, with your engineers unable to do anything to improve the situation. …and what about that refund, as we are paying for internet which we are not getting?

Nathan Rhys George (@orangethunder_) reported from Cardiff, WalesI feel awful for the @virginmedia social media staff. Bosses - invest more in infrastructure to genuinely improve services and stop these poor people being treated like ****. Also, pay your taxes.
-
Christina Macaulay (@macauc01) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia terrible service. You booked to install my equipment on 13th Dec 2023. Wrong year and no one will sort it out. Your fault entirely
-
Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia You really aren’t reading the messages, I’ve now told 3 different channels of my mothers death, I’ve called bereavement line to be hung up on, then closed early. I want a complaint raised, @Ofcom can you help?
-
Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Your company is awful. I’ve called today waited 10min to the worst hold music only to be cut off. Call back to be told your closed now then state you are open between 9-6. Why are you deliberately obstructive?
-
Rob Downer (@NobbyD27) reported from Cardiff, Wales@syeporter180 @virginmedia I’m on virgin and it’s not that great Sye, I was going to sky before I renewed but had the same problem as you because I’d of had to wait months for BT to install a cable so just stuck to the devil I know in the end
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Yep. Just been on hold for 1 hour 3 minutes and as soon as I got through it cut off. Sent multiple follow up WhatsApp messages and still nothing. You really need to sort out your customer service because I’ve been waiting 3 weeks just to get back into contact with someone!!!
-
Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia you SUCK, you have NO CUSTOMER service at all. Employ more staff and start to provide a service we are paying for RUBBISH SERVICE perhaps we need to move to @skytv !!!!
-
Graham Findlay FRSA 🏴🇪🇺 (@FindlayEquality) reported from Cathays, Wales@rwilliams1947 @virginmedia It seems VM are also messing up landlines too. They now need to connect the phone cable to the Wi-Fi hub . Which means lots of trouble in my house and many other properties across the UK. And good luck with trying to discontinue their contract - they make it very difficult.

MarcB (@555Husker) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia When will the website be fixed? It has been broken for weeks, ever since you “improved” it.

Ian F (@mashie1964) reportedI used to be with #VirginMedia for years. Service was poor, always having outages, sometimes for days. They’re the spivs of broadband communications. Now I see they’ve been caught abusing & trapping customers. Time they lost their licence to operate in the industry
-
Disco Biscuit (@discobiscuit900) reported@Ofcom So you're gonna pay those customers for their troubles out of the 28 million? Of course not. Who knows what ******** you're gonna do with the millions, but we can be certain that the people that Virgin Media dicked get nothing.
-
RoadRunner TX (@FredBra93439257) reported@TheMercianNews I'd like to see mobile phone and internet companies shut down operating in the UK on a single day. Have USN/Seals sever all international fiber into the UK on a single day. SHUT DOWN the City of London Physically SEVER International Fiber from BT/OpenReach, VirginMedia/O2, Vodaphone and the LINX Nework internchange in London. Ideally each line in 2-3 points of varying distance from UK shores to make repair more complex than laying new fiber. Air attack on all the major BT interchanges plus the physical operations of Cloudflare Akamai, AWS/Cloudfront, GoogleCloud CDN and smaller operators like Azure, Netflix, Meta and every source of new fiber either mfg or warehousing Destroy every piece of equipment and then just leave. Make all European govts TERRIFIED of the crazy Americans Destroy the internet as a means of brainwashing the British public
