@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 No! I'm not a customer its @KezMH who you need to apologise to. Seemingly your lack of ability to even read this thread properly emphasises your lack of ability to provide acceptable customer service

@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!

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 My 91 year old, partially sited mother who lives on her own has been without her landline for a week due to an error by Virgin Media. Customer services have proved to be unable to help, is there anyone in Virgin who cares enough about my mother’s safety help?

@virginmedia I wanted to extend my contract but was told the deals advertised online are only for new customers and that existing customers must pay more for the same package m. A shocking way to treat loyal customers.

@virginmedia No update given. Just the same automated message telling me it’s a complex issue that is taking it’s sweet time. Guess I’ll have to spend ANOTHER week working from a coffee shop stealing their wifi.
