@reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It's awful! I'm sick of calling customer services and getting through to someone who cannot understand basic English language and goes on talking about something else. Then try to speak to three different advisers to raise a simple issue/complaint and they refuse!

@reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It is awful! Virgin are very expensive compared to many other TV providers yet the customer service is very poor and does NOT suite the price. I'm sick of arguing with them to get the simplest of issues resolved

@virginmedia please sort your service out... I have now been on the phone to you for almost an hour. The first person hung up on me, the second was rude and useless. All for £0.01 which I don't owe. No wonder the landlords are removing virgin from all of the apartments

@virginmedia Yes I did and Tuesdays fault was shown and yesterday's wasn't so how about you provide the service I pay for. If this continues I will begin getting quotes from other service providers as I am fed up of dealing with bots and spammers claiming to be from you.

So @virginmedia is increasing their prices by £8.50 pm. Wouldn't mind so much if they had decent service, eifi that doesn't cut out when i go upstairs, Sky Atlantic etc. Would go with @SkyUK but their wifi doesn't like bloody copper pipes.

@virginmedia Wanted to thank the lady that helped me today. The call ended and it was not me, and I really wanted to thank her. Hopefully you will pass it on, she hung on to the bitter death to help.

@virginmedia I have just called them and once again was put through to about 2 different people who could not help. I was then put through to Niko from pre installation team who was extremely unhelpful. Can a manager call me?

@virginmedia Sorted. I advised that l had other things to do so could only wait a short while but l ended up on hold for about an hour until l gave up. The first service rep then called me again to ask if l had managed to close my account(!)

@virginmedia Hi, your one of your service representatives rang me this morning regarding an account for an address l haven't lived at since Nov 2021. I told her that l had notified yourselves that l had moved house but wasn't able to cancel the contract as the cancellation fee was too high

@Abstruse @JimSterling @virginmedia I've been told by Frontier that we would have broadband service in our area soon...that was 12 years ago (even got flyers in the mail) ...still waiting for any ISPs to come to my area...the only one that is close, won't expand to me, so I'm stuck using 4Glte for now.

@virginmedia I assume I'll be compensated for this poor service then. It will be 3 days without WiFi through no fault of my own. Not to mention a whole day wasted trying to sort it out!

@virginmedia I then called your customer service line in the hopes of getting this rectified and after l had explained the issue, they guy said your first rep shouldn't have called me as this essentially has nothing to do with me. One again l was asked to hold the line whilst he got this s

Poor Lads from @VirginMedia... Thought they’d just be left in peace to put the box on the outside of the house, then pin the cable to our house 🏡 Got them pull up all the paving slabs to bury their cable. They were probably annoyed, but didn’t show it & they did what I’d asked
