The worst service ever from @virginmedia - been trying to cancel my account since March. I do appreciate problems with lockdown etc but we’re almost in October! Nobody at all seems to want to take responsibility - passed from pillar to post!

@virginmedia my Wi-Fi has just gone off and within seconds your app is telling me there is a fault and the estimated fix is 3pm. Something tells me this is a planned outage. Why are you not communicating with customers who are relying on your service to work at home.

@virginmedia No response on the complaint, but have been in contact with someone on the forum and are being sent a new hub, so fingers crossed that works.

@virginmedia Could somebody from Customer Services please contact me urgently. My disabled, elderly father has been left without his services due to being disconnected (NOT under his instruction). Have been on phone trying to sort for 2.5 hours and phone call has been disconnected.

@virginmedia That’s exactly how the installation took 4 weeks to be fixed. Your company simply never answers. I’m trying to resolve this for my mother and it’s a never ending saga. As before, somebody needs to just fix it but nobody takes responsibility and everything takes weeks. Ridiculous.

@virginmedia I was transferred to customer service and got disconnected. This is not a text service, it’s a chat retranscription over text with a layer of bot!!!

@LfcShaunjudge @virginmedia They don’t want you to have the new tv. They gonna give you a PS5. In true honesty Virgin are doing over number of customers. Proper poor standards
