@fasurveyors @virginmedia I have to say; I’m normally pretty pleased with @virginmedia internet. It’s normally fast and reliable. But last couple of days has been awful. It’s getting too expensive as well

@virginmedia I've been in an online chat for nearly 2 hours today just to arrange transfer of services to my new house. I've led the conversation entirely. I'm not even going to report the CMs identity. Just wanted you to know how bad the experience was.

@virginmedia hi I’ve received a written response to a complaint from VM but with no way to reply other than the usual customer service number which doesn’t offer an option for this. Can you supply another telephone number or physical address to reply to?

@virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

@virginmedia awful customer service in my experience. Been trying to cancel contract since yesterday with no success! On line chat refer to team but they don’t respond and phone lines cut you off after 55 minutes of holding on!

@virginmedia get enough money from me and all the others get enough, from the rest of the paying public. So stop being greedy, stop paying the Premier clubs so much and wages will have to come down. There, sorted!

@virginmedia your sales team are the biggest bunch of #fraudsters I’ve ever dealt with! Phone us to offer a better package and you have taken our package and completely messed it all up! #CustomerService at it’s worst! If this is how you treat a loyal customer of 14year, I’m off!

@virginmedia Third Superhub and it's just as unreliable as the previous two. Frequently has to be reset. Slow speeds, unstable wifi. When are you going to replace it with decent hardware?

@virginmedia Absolute rubbish. Try calling to speak to someone...no answer. Try online...email address is completely different to my account. Date of last bill&account details don’t match. Complete load of crap. Won’t be paying my bill so at least someone will contact me 🤬

@virginmedia Still no continuous service today, my wife and I teach over weekend on zoom and it makes our working lives a misery with constant interruptions. My son can’t do his school lessons today. I phoned Virgin today, the rep said to wait another 24, perhaps 36 hours. This is not OK!

@virginmedia What would help would be to provide me with a service I am paying for and to stop passing the buck all the time, all I ever get from you guys is passed from pillar to post without anyone accepting responsibility

@virginmedia absolute terrible customer service. Was speaking to someone and she cut me off. No attempt to call me back and you have my numbers!! Now holding for ages again to speak to someone. My plan has gone up(again)! Not happy

Lindsey Thomas
(@Lindsey56736506) reported
@virginmedia I just want to be able to speak to someone about cancelling or changing my services. It is unreasonable that I have had several conversations, each time holding for over an hour and no-one can offer me a solution that doesn’t involve me calling you.

(@DominikLemanski) reported
@virginmedia To follow up I called the 0345 number. The recorded message says you might take an hour to answer due to Covid. In 2015 I was paying £40 for broadband. Today it is £52.47 for the same service no quicker. Why the 24% increase? Can you reduce the monthly charge please?

@virginmedia No- I was told it was sent 19 Feb but never received. I am concerned there are issues with the account details.

@virginmedia The problem lies deeper. If I’m required to manually reboot numerous times (which changes very little) then it suggests that your products and services aren’t competent enough from the start? Clearly capable of providing a seamless service, which is the frustrating thing
