@virginmedia Don't really want to waste another hour of my life calling back yet again! Already wasted 2 hrs was given a 'direct" number which no-one answered. Call centre can't help or understand problem. What is the point? Do U get reimbursement for all the inconvenience @virginmedia ?

@virginmedia Ooo a response! Now I have a dilemma - do I have to complain about the length of time it took to even try to help me with my original complaint? I do sincerely hope I actually get somewhere this time. The time I have spent trying to resolve this is astronomical!

@Sedds_lep @virginmedia Did you get help Dave? Tried 3 times and made an email complaint to @virginmedia - 28 days for a reply! Got a new V Box for second room, won't connect or verify. 3 hrs wasted on phone. What worked? I've given up...

@virginmedia I have been trying to get through to customer service for the past two days, the call is usually immediately rejected or I am told the call waiting time is an hour. I have had enough and as soon as I get through I am cancelling my account. 😡

@virginmedia am I to take your complete and utter silence as the refusal to resolve the outstanding complaint?!? the utter disregard you continuously display towards your customers is disgraceful. You should be ashamed. @MartinSLewis

@virginmedia As was promised (via, text, tweet and written correspondence!!) I have spent countless hours on hold to no resolve. I will await your promised call. Each day I don't receive said call/contact I will continue to demonstrate publicly how bad your customer services are..

@virginmedia just wasted two hours on web chat trying to get a better sim deal as advertised. 45 mins to get through security. Tried to check/sign in on the Virgin mobile app and it doesn’t work for me or my husband, despite having an account for years. An absolute joke! 👎🏻

@virginmedia Already tried this & the people who answer the calls aren't authorised to deal with it and so I get another promised phonecall which is never made!!! What are you going to do to rectify the problem that's been ongoing since November 2020?!?!?! @MartinSLewis #poorcustomerservice

@Ethaneus @virginmedia Yeah same here. On phone it says there’s a known issue and they’re dealing with it. But when checking online I have to book an engineer appointment. Absolute shambles. Think I’m going to leave them after this.

@Dazed_Confus3d Pretty comparable! Once we had to shout at the Virgin Media people reminding them that they send their people to the bloody Mars, yet, it takes them ages to send their staff to their customers’ houses around London to fix things!
