David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia You seem to be missing the point, as I don’t have a VM account the call centre can’t help. Previously your Executive Team stated that they would ensure the matter would be given immediate attention... that was weeks ago. I’m sure my pending legal action will focus VM Ex Team.

@virginmedia Are you seriously telling me that a multi national company doesn’t have a customer services email?
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia Firstly I noticed you removed @BBCWatchdog from your reply. My initial request was 2/12/20, this was followed up by several messages, my complaint was made on 7/1/21 and the reply stated it would be addressed within 28 days. During this time I sent 2 reminder emails.

David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@BBCWatchdog @virginmedia I have been waiting since Dec 20 to have my garden restored following unauthorised entry and damage. Now you have the audacity to have your henchmen (Moorecroft) send me a threatening email for not paying my bill. I AM NOT VM CUSTOMER!!!!
-
Jason McIntosh (@JasonMcIntosh88) reported from Derry, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia Apparently Covid means you’re limiting engineer visits where possible! So now I’m paying for services I can’t use, and nobody in your call centres will help at all.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@JasonMcIntosh88 @virginmedia Don’t hold your breath waiting on a response, I’ve been waiting since December for them to remove an unauthorised fibre run across my garden. I’ve never experienced such incompetence, I think I have heard every excuse except for a plague of locusts. 😡

Terence O'Brien (@tobconnell) reported from Culmore, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia internet down and poor for days now

David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia Again you have omitted @BBCWatchdog. I’ve been told that VM CS don’t have an email which I find unbelievable.... anyhow the Executive Team do and this is the ref C-07012136 I received from them. I have also completed the online complaint form.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Derry, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia I have emailed this morning and like many other times I have not received a reply. My recent dates of contact are 11/3, 25/3, 30/3, 31/3, 1/4 and 12/4. My email today outlines my intention to escalate my complaint and instigate legal action for the damage to my garden.
-
Jason McIntosh (@JasonMcIntosh88) reported from Derry, Northern Ireland
@RazzaLLM @virginmedia It’s so incompetent it must be deliberate lad. Absolutely no desire to provide any sort of decent customer service at all.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia I appreciate your response and I refer you to my previous messages. It is not a service issue and not a matter to be discussed on a open forum.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia A complaint was lodged in Dec 2020, following contact from VM Executive Team I was informed that it was passed to the local team for urgent action. Following a number of broken promises the damage to my garden and the unauthorised fibre remain.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia As previously stated I don’t have time to wait on hold for hours on end listening to music. I’m sure you are able to look at my previous messages which outline my issues including the latest one outlining a wayleave or as the case is no wayleave.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Well what can I say, the level of customer service from VM has once again excelled all expectations but I would be telling lies just like VM do. Despite numerous verbal and written promises you have failed to resolve the issue.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Folks I once again have to congratulate you on the total incompetence of your customer service team. It’s now 14 days since I first contacted VM and other than an auto response every morning I’ve had no contact. Please extract the digit.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia @BBCWatchdog . It seems the “just ignore him and he’ll go away” policy is systemic throughout the Organisation including the Exe Team. With the gardening season on it’s way it would be awful if a spade was to accidentally cut a fibre which isn’t supposed to be there.
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia @Kristian7Ross Don’t expect quick service from VM so far I’ve been waiting 19 days. I’ve used 3 different methods of contact and spent almost 2 hours on hold. Shocking customer service.
-
Jason McIntosh (@JasonMcIntosh88) reported from Derry, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia Nope, apparently there’s nothing any of the eight of your colleagues can do. I’ve been advised I should phone the engineer who did the original installation directly to see if he can help. Sounds ridiculous, right...?!
-
David Gallagher (@davy_gallagher) reported from Eglinton, Northern Ireland
@virginmedia I’ve already tried that service and two days later I’m still waiting for a reply.

@queenchristina_ @virginmedia I bet you would have a problem if you wanted to upgrade

-
Roh the boat (@iamroh_) reported
@virginmedia The 3rd time I spoke to someone I asked for a person to be sent or a new box and instead he changed the name of my WiFi and added the number 5 then disconnected the call and never called back. Virgin has our numbers on file, he could've called back to continue resolving the issue
-
Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported
@virginmedia I'm exhausted with it. I might do another time but it is mentally draining to fight to get a service running. Not asking a lot. And comes on top of the price hike.
-
Caroline (@Carolin43689207) reported
@virginmedia Hi I would like to cancel my contract which ends on the 2nd of February.
-
Roh the boat (@iamroh_) reported
@virginmedia I let her know we pay for WiFi to be wireless and there is more than one laptop in the house. I asked for someone to come and take a look at the box or a replacement to be sent as has been done in the past. She said she can't help me and transferred me to the discount department
-
Em (@uhoohhstinky) reported
@nickjdgilbert @virginmedia Couldn't have put it better myself. 5 hours of Ed Sheeran and being randomly hung up on for what should be a very simple fix.
-
Sefa Melamet (@SefaMelamet) reported
@virginmedia No estimate #notimetofixproblem just says that there are issues in my area that #affectmyinternetandtv

-
Amy L (@amyjolll) reported
@virginmedia I've heard nothing from Virgin - I've called multiple times but just get sent a SMS with a link to check my broadband status. Haven't been able to get hold of a customer service agent yet.
-
Tim Rogers (@RogersTim1) reported
@virginmedia Two hours after the pre install team assure me everything will be in place for tomorrow’s install someone from @virginmedia calls to to say it won’t go ahead. 51 days since I ordered your service no sign of internet. Lied to daily and no accountability for solving my issue..
-
Ian Sparks (@iansparks) reported
@virginmedia It’s been an issue for a long time , 35 % of recordings so that’s not the problem, something I’ll just have to put up with
