@RazzaLLM @virginmedia It’s so incompetent it must be deliberate lad. Absolutely no desire to provide any sort of decent customer service at all.

@virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Folks I once again have to congratulate you on the total incompetence of your customer service team. It’s now 14 days since I first contacted VM and other than an auto response every morning I’ve had no contact. Please extract the digit.

@virginmedia A complaint was lodged in Dec 2020, following contact from VM Executive Team I was informed that it was passed to the local team for urgent action. Following a number of broken promises the damage to my garden and the unauthorised fibre remain.

@virginmedia Firstly I noticed you removed @BBCWatchdog from your reply. My initial request was 2/12/20, this was followed up by several messages, my complaint was made on 7/1/21 and the reply stated it would be addressed within 28 days. During this time I sent 2 reminder emails.

@virginmedia You seem to be missing the point, as I don’t have a VM account the call centre can’t help. Previously your Executive Team stated that they would ensure the matter would be given immediate attention... that was weeks ago. I’m sure my pending legal action will focus VM Ex Team.

@JasonMcIntosh88 @virginmedia Don’t hold your breath waiting on a response, I’ve been waiting since December for them to remove an unauthorised fibre run across my garden. I’ve never experienced such incompetence, I think I have heard every excuse except for a plague of locusts. 😡

@virginmedia Again you have omitted @BBCWatchdog. I’ve been told that VM CS don’t have an email which I find unbelievable.... anyhow the Executive Team do and this is the ref C-07012136 I received from them. I have also completed the online complaint form.

@virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Well what can I say, the level of customer service from VM has once again excelled all expectations but I would be telling lies just like VM do. Despite numerous verbal and written promises you have failed to resolve the issue.

@virginmedia @Kristian7Ross Don’t expect quick service from VM so far I’ve been waiting 19 days. I’ve used 3 different methods of contact and spent almost 2 hours on hold. Shocking customer service.

@virginmedia I appreciate your response and I refer you to my previous messages. It is not a service issue and not a matter to be discussed on a open forum.

@virginmedia Nope, apparently there’s nothing any of the eight of your colleagues can do. I’ve been advised I should phone the engineer who did the original installation directly to see if he can help. Sounds ridiculous, right...?!

@virginmedia hi, I'm wondering how many hang ups and how long on hold does it take to cancel order for services taken 48 hrs ago. 24 minutes and counting on 3rd attempt.

@virginmedia Apparently Covid means you’re limiting engineer visits where possible! So now I’m paying for services I can’t use, and nobody in your call centres will help at all.

@virginmedia I’ve already tried that service and two days later I’m still waiting for a reply.

@virginmedia Are you seriously telling me that a multi national company doesn’t have a customer services email?

@virginmedia As previously stated I don’t have time to wait on hold for hours on end listening to music. I’m sure you are able to look at my previous messages which outline my issues including the latest one outlining a wayleave or as the case is no wayleave.

@virginmedia @BBCWatchdog . It seems the “just ignore him and he’ll go away” policy is systemic throughout the Organisation including the Exe Team. With the gardening season on it’s way it would be awful if a spade was to accidentally cut a fibre which isn’t supposed to be there.

@virginmedia I have emailed this morning and like many other times I have not received a reply. My recent dates of contact are 11/3, 25/3, 30/3, 31/3, 1/4 and 12/4. My email today outlines my intention to escalate my complaint and instigate legal action for the damage to my garden.

@BBCWatchdog @virginmedia I have been waiting since Dec 20 to have my garden restored following unauthorised entry and damage. Now you have the audacity to have your henchmen (Moorecroft) send me a threatening email for not paying my bill. I AM NOT VM CUSTOMER!!!!

@virginmedia My parents were told that an engineer would be coming to fix the broadband line yesterday (after YOU, @virginmedia damaged the line in the first place) and nobody turned up! Then they were told this would now not be fixed until 29th November?!?

@virginmedia Ofcom is looking into this matter as I have trouble understanding the people in your Indian call centre and was promised a phone callback Within 15 minutes that was 3 months ago

Laura Jane
(@laurajhal) reported
Sorely disappointed in @virginmedia’s customer services!! My parents have been without Wi-Fi since October 7 and they rely on Wi-Fi to work from home and keep in contact with family. Totally unacceptable. They’ve been told the repair won’t be completed until end of November.

(@laurajhal) reported
@virginmedia In addition, my parents have spent hours on the phone with your customer services team for them to offer zero support or alternatives to resolve this situation. A huge waste of time!!

@butcher809 @virginmedia It’s the O2 merger that’s killed it, they were always the worst for speeds and now virgins using their masts now we all get to suffer too. Definitely gonna avoid in the future, useless customer support too

@virginmedia I don't believe the standard of your service will be any better and certainly there's no greater speed than 500mb is there ? Should domestic customers receive a poorer service. That logic is shameful.

@virginmedia your app isn't working properly, your broadband(£50+ a month) has gone worse and my 5g S22 is lucky to get 3g . I ring up to try and rectify my issues but the line is shocking #NeverAgain
