@virginmedia @Kabatan7 Oh bollocks. You gave me the same "busier than normal" line in January. Hopelessly understaffed "customer service" for all of the last 10 years. That's why you didn't remotely challenge my case with @CISASUK, just paid compensation. 1/2

@virginmedia @Kabatan7 @CISASUK Cheaper to compensate the few that can be bothered to take the complaint process all the way than to provide a service where loyal customers don't feel taken for granted and ignored. 2/2

@virginmedia your customer service staff are a joke. Constantly, lie cut you off and never resolve your issue. Get rid & start again.

@VirginMediaIE @UtilityregCRU This has been escalated to a manager, gone to the CRU and at least 6 complaints made and you advise there's nothing you can do. That virgin media services state that 'you don't actually provide wifi' with the service. Something that is a complete joke

Can you advise where my outstanding monies are which were awarded in November 2022 after adjudication by CISAS to myself due to the appalling service I encountered from @vmbusiness over the past 6 months please???

@virginmedia I made a complaint via your web form because this is the way I wanted to complain. I got a response telling me to call up. If I wanted to call up and be in a queue for hours I would. Terrible lazy service. Who can I escalate this to?

@virginmedia Other than the fact that it’s EVERY month, no. I have suggested to your customer services people that possibly the cable could have degraded, I think we’ve been customers for 23years, but your people say not

@virginmedia There is today but there wasn’t at the weekend. We were told it would be resolved by 6pm but nope not working. We work from home and my kids need to do homework? We’ve been loyal customers for 12 years but we will leave Virgin as there have been so many issues lately.
