@virginmedia Hi I text two evenings ago when you told me too, and then received a very generic response about upgrading my package online. I have since text again to say that the problem is with the increase and that I may need to cancel but nothing back yet. Over 6 hours on hold now to you!

@_simonlambert @GECFrost you said it about virgin media. Maybe it’s just me (King in waiting) but when I speak to customer services a “firm” stooge e.g nice but dim wills intercepts the calls to attempt to mentally turn me over. They are sinister AF. Now I’m locked out of iPlayer

@WilliamNB @virginmedia Nope. Stuff thankfully works pretty well but company is proving to be awful. Shamelessly trying to use the breach their sloppiness allowed to wriggle out of the gdpr queries I've lodged as a result of the breach.

@virginmedia Can’t answer calls ems bouncing back. Wouldn’t it make more sense to just take everyone’s sports package off. Paying £125 per month at this my point my other half is ready to cancel everything when we can.

@gazza_d @jo2gard @virginmedia They are awful, but the broadband is fast, trick is to never try to communicate with them.

@virginmedia Twice but very unsatisfactorily and although I was told at 5.30 that I would receive a call back within half an hour from a customer services manager, I am yet to receive that call. New customer extremely f***ed off if I'm honest

@virginmedia No, unfortunately I never got that far. Seriously considering just cancelling and going with a company that has more respect for its customers. Literally became a client 5 days ago

.@virginmedia have emailed me a survey about their handling of my complaint. Nil points all the way. To be fair once I managed to speak to someone she was ok(just) and gave me answers. Trust is so low I don't entirely believe them

@virginmedia It would help if you read the thread and the attached screenshot. I did email with specific requests under gdpr. That was forwarded within VM and I got a generic dismissive reply which didn't even acknowledge the queries. Further eroding trust in VM

@virginmedia Wow so it’s either write to you or burn time and money waiting beyond another hour to see if you might be able to match what the competition is offering! Doesn’t seem the most efficient or non obstructive way to let someone cancel easily?

(@STUPOTT77) reported
@virginmedia wow what great customer service you have. Informed that I would get a call back from a manager in two hours. Yet here we are three hours later and nothing. What a surprise. Maybe it's time to switch providers

@virginmedia Just spent 30 minutes on hold to speak to retentions for the woman on the other end to hang up on me after a couple of minutes, I redialled and another 30 minutes later the same woman answered and as soon as she heard my name hung up again. Fantastic.

@virginmedia Hi, it states there is a known TV issue but broadband is fine...however, speeds are just insanely bad that I still cannot use anything....

@virginmedia We have a problem with our Wifi being intermittent. Have done all that your web suggests but it still drops out. It's not our tech or network but the hub! Need a new one please!

(@ncustisTheSun) reported
so because i was out of contract @virginmedia just doubled it. I rang in a strop now back down from £53.50 to £36 and double the broadband speed. Why can't companies just help you without trying to catch you out. A very small problem in the big scheme I know.

@virginmedia Sorry not acceptable to manage problems the way you have. No updates. Missing resolution dates and nonchalant responses when pushed for answers. Working from home whilst schooling from home requires internet connectivity not excuses and ? marks

@virginmedia Your app is so bad it’s laughable. Trying to order boosters for my home. Told online to download your app. Obviously neither your shitty app or online tell you how to order them... Just that you need them! Terrible and frustrating service.

@virginmedia good evening. Are there any outages in the Edinburgh area? Our broadband connection is terrible this evening.
