@virginmedia promised a call back from tech support “within 30 minutes” at 11.30am today. Still waiting... your customer service really is embarrassing time and time again. Same fault, different day. @sky a million miles ahead.

@virginmedia I start watching movies on the sky store, then around 20-30 minutes in its says there's a connection issue and disconnects completely, not allowing me to get back on. It comes back on about 5 minutes later.

@virginmedia @JBarksfield They understand your frustration, you phone the "support" after they have run out of their limited ideas they pretend they can't hear you on the phone when you hear hello, hello, prepare to be hung up on, trash, trash.

@virginmedia The other services work fine. I have no issues with connectivity other than when streaming on demand shows/movies. The only assistance I need is for you to sort your streaming service.

Having an absolute nightmare ordering a phone from @virginmedia ! No record of complaint logged, prices keep changing, order placed online last night and now no record of it! Shouldn’t be this hard to get a phone!

@virginmedia Hi. I tried rebooting the router but without any luck. It’s the only device I’m having an issue with. It should connect when I press the WPS button on the router but it’s not connecting and timing out.

@DebbyLewinton1 @virginmedia Same here in North Manchester. Been intermittent since 5 December, fix tomorrow apparently. Of course they don’t communicate directly to you, only found that out by ringing them. Had enough, moving to Sky in new year.

@virginmedia I have already been onto VM chat and they are the ones who told me the new date and that no router has been ordered. Phone and online chat have been no help! Hoping these tweets put off potential new customers!

@SonosSupport Built a guest network for my Ring system but the Sonos is on the main network with all of the phones, laptops etc. Nothing has changed in terms of security etc - I'm not convinced that my Virgin Media equipment is not at fault, but literally everything else in the house is fine!

@virginmedia No advice at all! There is a network issue in the area, was initially told would be sorted early/mid Nov, now told Dec 6th. Completely misled by call centre who said new router would be sent out and now no history of order placed! Waiting to see refund on bill, no sign yet!

@virginmedia why can't anyone get through to customer service. Especially when I'm trying to cancel the service for a pensioner.

@virginmedia @AmyDaviesMASW Oh and the contact number just hangs up (as I'm finding out), so in effect it's impossible to cancel Virgin. How convenient

Robert Rainey🇬🇧
(@robertraineyni) reported
@virginmedia Both. Tried to cancel service by phoning, your staff claimed the password was wrong, able to log on with password but no option to cancel service. Wrote to CEO still getting harassed by BPO and getting bills from Virgin Media. Absolutely appalling company!!

So, is @virginMedia's protocol to lure new clients into a contract to state (deceptively) you are going to absorb the cost of rescinding previous arrangements with a different provider, then pretending to log a complaints and never return calls? #BadPractice #Ombudsman

Bert
(@PJBert) reported
@virginmedia But I’ve already had a ‘text chat’ with someone who I gave my details to.they could do sweet fa. So I call 0345 again, to hear the same story ‘ I am not able to help’. A manager won’t be available! Because they never are. Service has been pathetic. #customerservice #pathetic
