@virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

@virginmedia Yeah, we have been charged wrong for the past two months even though the account was clear when we entered a new contract with you, now we been challenging it since August! Told manager will ring and then they don’t and then you charge us wrong, and then to make your customer

@virginmedia Broadband/TV outage until 2:35pm but can’t register a loss of service as page doesn’t load. On 4G so problem is with you. Why advertise you’ll compensate if there’s no way to get it?!

@virginmedia There isn't anything that could help with the problem because I don't fully understand what everything is or means etc It could do with a technician to have a look, something similar as happened before and you sent a technician out

@virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

@virginmedia honestly... your call centre/arranging anything is absolutely shocking. Twice had something arranged, twice its not happened and wrong things noted. Please sort out your call centre. This poor engineer has just turned into a complaints department

@virginmedia still no broadband in bb3 area since Thurs & update now says tomorrow for fix. Shocking customer service, why can't you tell your customers what is happening instead of saying an engineer is on the way on the updates, at least then we would know what to expect

@virginmedia when is someone going to ring us back after the failure to apply the package to our account we sorted on the phone yet still hasn’t changed or a manager ringing back to deal with the complaint. Shocking services but soon quick to mailing bills out!

@virginmedia Thanks for fixing it this morning, I trust given I’d no service for circa 36hrs I’ll see a credit upon my next bill?

@virginmedia It’s technical issues with the broadband and network stability issues. No one wants to help, I’ve spoken to 3 technicians and no one has offered a resolution. Joke

@virginmedia Service even worse you demand full payment and then will credit our account for your error and breach of contract! Your customers service staff rude! Demanding money before we can speak to anyone well I wonder what a solicitor would have to say with copy of the breached contract.

@virginmedia Yes it works on my phone browser, but not on laptop, so I'll just continue using that method, thanks. One more question; Why do your customer support agents ask for a security password that I use when speaking to an agent, despite being a new customer and haven't set this up yet

@virginmedia Yeah I've seen that already thanks, but it's not going to help the kids with accessing homework online. no I am not on a B account as of yet as I have only just started out in the last week 😑 but even if I was on a B account it would still be off so doesn't make any difference

@hutchingsmusic @virginmedia It’s more about the fact that I pay £95 per month for it, and it goes down a bit too often for my liking... Bah humbug! ;)

@virginmedia am I able to cancel my tv and phone and just leave the broadband using the online portal anywhere. I’d rather not have to call. I have better things to do with my time.

@HowardBenson We’ve had Virgin for 24 hours, the last 12 hours we’ve had no internet phones or TV. Not good enough - should I cancel as this is a sign of things to come or stick with BT? @virginmedia

(@mockage) reported
Hey @virginmedia. Turns out this lockdown Christmas sucks even more that we don't have BB on Christmas day to video call family. Any idea when this will be fixed? Chap on the phone was no help other than to tell me not to worry, others are also facing the problem. :(

@virginmedia I was told it's a wider issue. But I was also told it would be resolved last week. Today and yesterday I'm getting speeds of 19mbps. Meant to be getting 200mbps. Not a merry Christmas in this household.

@kategarraway @skytv Hope it is sorted now. Similar problems with @virginmedia been trying for the last 5 weeks to get through/get them to call etc. For companies worth billions their customer service leaves a lot to be desired- putting it politely!
