@amandavin @virginmedia I need fibre though because of stupid children streaming games and all sorts of nonsense. Anything other than virgin also comes with a £50 BT phone line installation. They’ve got me over a barrel

@virginmedia sadly having to post again. Home broadband down again. Your service is so unreliable it is useless. U have failed to provide a reliable broadband service and remain in breach of contract.

@virginmedia Wired. The issue isn't with my side of the network. It appears to be on the virgin side based on the router logs.

@virginmedia customers with difficult problems seem to be parked in telephone que until they go away. Really trying to work to Virgin. Still waiting 55 minutes bet they will just disconnect me!

Virgin media service - connection goes down with 24 hours & no help from technical services, just reading from a script & no escalation. Giving up after a year of unacceptable service. Lovely and polite on social media, impossible once a customer #virginmedia

@alone_music @virginmedia Jesus that’s bad, thought it could be done online the activation. I moved house and they said 20£ to move. What they didn’t say was that they renewed the contract and double billed me as they take one month in advance as a new contract. Complained to @virginmedia nothing done

@virginmedia after nearly a year of repeatedly dropped internet service finally asked them to turn off their Wi-fi kit so can use my own. Basic connection fails, again, and nothing left for support desk to blame - challenge that if it’s not on the script then no help

@Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Your customer service is so painful and appalling. 2 rings and the sales team answer, 20 minute transfer to Loyalty team, gave up when needing to be transferred to Contract Services team. FFS I only wanted to remain a customer!!!

@virginmedia long wait times 40+ minutes and no fix just another que and a recorded message that will be charged by ‘Virgin Gadget Rescue Team’!. Virgin sets new standards in Customer Service.

@virginmedia what you playing at!!! Been on hold for 1 hour and half now, spoke to 3 different departments about cancelling my services and no-one can help me. Is this how you keep customers by putting barriers infront of them!!!

Elle Field
(@ellefie) reported
@HayleyHall_UK @virginmedia Irgh, what a pain. And blummin' cheek with the exit fee, too! I've tried calling them as well but I'm just repeatedly stuck on hold. Yey. Top customer service - why would anyone want to stay with them when you're treated like this?!

Aman Jain

@virginmedia What else is the customer expected to do? Take up a full time job of calling @virginmedia until they oblige by picking up the phone?

(@kilsinc) reported
on hold for over an hour, call gets answered and immediately disconnected... @virginmedia I just want to cancel my package but conveniently you guys have left me waiting over an hour on the past 4 attempts. Already sent a letter and still heard nothing. #suspicious #conartist

(@kilsinc) reported
@virginmedia I won't be paying the next bill because I've tried cancelling my package since receiving your letter and no-one has answered in the hour on each separate occasion over the past 5 days. Absolute joke of a customer service team

(@DowbakinRyan) reported
@virginmedia Can you provide me with an alternative number to call - I refuse to waste another 1+ hour of my time when I’ve committed so much time to resolving the issue. I think it’s appropriate for Virgin to contact me via phone now

(@jimwhitehouse84) reported
@virginmedia No, I’ve called 4 times already. Have no more time to waste on this. Currently on my 52nd hour of WhatsApp chat with no resolution

@virginmedia What are you talking about? I received notification of a price increase from 1st March 2022 and appears a general increase to all, not discounts ending. Your reference to last year makes no sense to my complaint!

@virginmedia what's this joke? You've installed ti my property, done an install. Found cable to property is faulty, I've been without net/phone/TV for 3 days. Now being told have to wait another 11days? Why cancel old service if you planned for me to have no services for 14 days?
