Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, EnglandYe gods, @virginmedia customer service is beyond terrible. An hour trying to resolve a "phantom calls" issue last night which now needs an engineer visit, and spotted that a direct debit is in an incorrect name but this can't be changed via WhatsApp chat and needs *another* call.

NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandTime for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.
-
Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Lots of people are complaining about this on the customer forums. We've had very little downtime since the separate router was connected, it's suddenly gone to pot and seems to be a general issue at the moment.

-
JCC SOUTH (@JccSouth) reported@rpd_pacer @virginmedia @virginmedia customer service is woeful. With them since it was Telewest. Sky are much better and have got good offers on at the moment. Only time they were any good was after a death in the family when they weren't needed anymore! Good luck.
-
Gary Broadbent (@garyb007) reported@TezzaBelle88 @virginmedia Yep, pretty standard. By miles, the worst customer service I've ever experienced. What's more, nobody seems to want to improve it.
-
Wirtz machine (@DavidVaughan5) reported@virginmedia My virgin media phone allows incoming calls but every time I phone out its showing as busy? I cant get through to speak to anyone to fix this?
-
d_f1888 (@df1888) reported@virginmedia @LutzSchueler Shocking customer service from VM. Next step will be contacting the communications ombudsman
-
Keith Bambury (@Jackba2) reportedHey @virginmedia I live in Epping CM16. My services have been out for 2 days. You keep putting the fix date back, you now say Monday. Prove to me you know what the trouble is and that you are actually working on it. No excuses allowed about resource allocation.
-
Rebecca Réva (@AvaniEbony666) reported@virginmedia WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOUR BLOODY COMPANY POLICIES AND VALUES?? Or doesn't that Schmitt system no longer concern you that your performances are going down ever so quickly and IM READY to leave WITHOUT PAYING any EXIT FEE
-
Ric M. (@revoraman) reported@Benleo Guess what, Ben. @Ofcom after making a complaint o them about @virginmedia inertia not to resolve a service paid for monthly, took the easy way out and copped out. 'Not in our ballpark'. Wonder who owns whom? A regulator not worth the paper it seems!
-
megb (@Gbarch1) reported@virginmedia Ok, how about replying to my many messages? We are close to the 48 hour compensation deadline for loss of service and with an apparent 'fix' planned for Monday at 12 you are going to owe alot of people.
