@virginmedia Your team still do not answer the phone. Constantly on hold and then they hung up on my partner yesterday when she got through. The box will be left outside the address for you to collect because we have been trying to cancel for a week now and it is a joke. #poorcustomerservice

@virginmedia not impressed with your customer service this week. After days of attempted communication I finally spoke to someone about getting a new phone. They spoke terrible English, were unhelpful and have actually lost you my potential 24month contract.

@virginmedia @Steven_Smith89 I’ve tried reaching out via the telephone number provided on your website, however despite numerous attempts I have failed to speak to anyone & a fault at your end meant that the line went dead yesterday as I got through... why do you make this so difficult? PLEASE HELP 🙏

@virginmedia your WiFi and service is a disgrace. Constant outage, hopeless WiFi range, unreachable "support". And now you're putting my bill up? Utter joke.

Very excellent service from Linzi in the Longbenton call centre today, got my upgrade sorted and we had a good little chat as well whilst she was sorting things. Made me feel a lot better for spending the time I did on hold. @virginmedia

@virginmedia Hi, can I add a telephone line to the broadband package that I already have? Looked on your webpage and it’s all bundles with no option to add anything to the service I already purchase

@virginmedia I have had a house move booked for 2 weeks (planned for tomorrow) yet once again you have disconnected my services early at my current address. I’m working from home and your error has once again impacted me and now going to spend my morning again trying to fix!

@virginmedia It has been over a week trying to contact you and it’s impossible. The contract needs to end on 04/03/21. Your service makes things 10x harder than any other provider.

@virginmedia would like to thank you for your customer service. Over 15 years of money from me. 50% price rise. I would like to leave please. No problem. All booked for you. Good bye. Wish I could afford to treat my customers like that.

@virginmedia Would I be right in assuming you would just put me through to the billings team or can you actually solve the problem? Please be completely honest here because if I do the online chat but you just pass me to billings it will be yet another waste of my time.

@virginmedia A technician has been booked, via online diagnostics. The Internet went down just after a BT technician did something to the connection box on our road- does this need to go to a different team of technicians????? #virginmediadown #virginmediahelp

@virginmedia I’ve raised a complaint with your team last Thursday. They told me to expect a call back by Tuesday. Still nothing. You have £150 of my money! I can’t afford to be overcharged by this amount, the service is disgusting considering I have a mortgage with you too!

@virginmedia my Internet connection is absolutely shocking. I've never really needed it to be consistent before due to just browsing and netflix with it, but WFH it's terrible. It drops all the time, can't go even a full hour without losing connection.

For a company that trades on communication, speed and efficiency, @virginmedia and @comex2000’s installation of a network in this Cheshire town has left a lasting advert of shoddiness and “couldn’t care less”. Your only as good as your last job?
