@virginmedia determined to leave you this month . Fed up of price hikes and customer service with an attitude! Nothing for customer loyalty!

@virginmedia Many thanks for your help. I was finally able to get them. ... it did take a week and a lot of wasted time though

@virginmedia It’s honestly embarrassing how ludicrously incompetent this company is, read the previous tweets. I do not have high hopes for the text service but we shall see.

@virginmedia I find it insulting that you infer it is a problem my end! Once again, the level of customer care is dreadful, and no fixing of the actual problem that we pay a monthly premium for!

@virginmedia my broadband has been down since yesterday and I’ve subscribed to text alerts for updates. Ironically no updates received so I can only assume you need your network to work in order to send them! Come on Virgin, this is unacceptable service.

@virginmedia Says no known issues, which is what is has said for 3 days. But if that was the case my WiFi, and other people’s in the area, would not be cutting out constantly would it!

@virginmedia Still waiting for you to reconnect my internet after 8 days... Incredibly lax security - your team informed me that someone called you to set internet up with my address (mistakenly), and you then disconnected our account without warning or notice #wtf #lostearnings

@virginmedia thanks for such a helpful and amazing customer support service. After 40 min waiting to talk to one of your agents, he complained he could not hear me properly, I asked him to bear with me while I plugged my headset and 30s later, he hanged up. 1/2

@virginmedia No. It’s a link to this Twitter exchange. Please send me an email address so I can lodge an official complaint. Thanks

@virginmedia Yes, the old rule of “turn it off and turn it on again” is not a fix.

@virginmedia I see. Thanks. There is no point ringing your ‘customer service’ number - I don’t have the time or battery to listen to the same four songs on a loop for over an hour then be told nothing helpful. Been there, done that.

Trying to cancel my @virginmedia broadband because I’m moving and I’ve been on hold for 33 minutes out of the 36 minutes (and counting...) of this call. Will cost my phone bill a fortune by the end of it! Very poor service, don’t think I’ll use them when I need broadband again!

@virginmedia I appreciate your quick response but there is never any different advice other than testing the router or reset.

@Taimoor05435737 @virginmedia If after waiting for a long time and then going through crazy checks which will be asked for again, we get through to a call centre and speak to a person who has never actually used VM. It's a crazy set up, but cheap I suspect. Total waste if time

Matt Bullock
(@MonkeyBullocks) reported
@virginmedia I have a customer support query about your customer support. I'm an "active customer" who never received any equipment (router, etc.), should the Pre-Install Team be responsible for helping me, or someone else? I get different answers depending on the department!

(@DanBarl02044786) reported
@virginmedia it's still open. Web chat team has said they will arrange a call back in 24 hours. Sorry I was expecting this call 15 days ago. Still don't believe this has been passed back to to complaints department for then to contact me. Can you help on this matter before I go to the CISAS

What is wrong with @virginmedia ? I have raised complaints and get no calls only "we tried to call you" and they clearly have not! The 1gig broadband is a joke. They cant support their latest Hub and help is unhelpful!
