@virginmedia Quite the worst customer contact centre ever. Website does not offer phone or email contact. Only way to get web chat is to go to complaints page. 1 hour to get a 1 minute task done. Deliberately cut off twice. #poorservice

Virgin media make me 🤬 Been with them for 6yrs (no other option in our flats), paid their extortionate prices & received pretty poor intermittent service. Moving house & they don’t supply our new area 🥳 but they would like to charge a cancellation fee of £30.38

@BorisJohnson I can only get virginmedia (at an extortionate price) as it’s the only one who supply more than slow basic speeds - and this is the centre of bristol. Nothings improved for most of us - not only for this but everything else since you’ve wrecked our economy

@virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.

.@virginmedia telling us to sit and wait for 24 hours without internet just incase our Wi-Fi starts working again before they’ll actually do anything, great customer service… not 👍🏻

@virginmedia This contact was via the phone. He did give a reason, the reason being he didn’t know what the problem was. So told us to sit here and wait with no Wi-Fi and hope it sorts itself out.

Just spoken to @virginmedia customer services about red light on my hub. They GUARANTEED that the light will revert to white in the next 24 hours. Wonder what happen if their guarantee fails?

@virginmedia Yes. That isn’t the point though. Your website has no information about how to contact you. And your web chat takes 1 hour to do the task of reporting bad speeds. Your contact support needs vast improvement.

@virginmedia My broadband keeps disconnecting. This is my 4th time contacting and it gets worse each time you apparently fix something. Please can you fix it. I cannot work at home and I’ve just been booted out of your online chat to resolve the problem!

So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

Hey @virginmedia there’s something VERY wrong with my Wi-Fi. I followed your online instructions and it didn’t clear the problem. I have a really busy few days. What’s the quickest, easiest way of getting it sorted?

@virginmedia Your text channel has sent us into a loop telling us to call your phone support that is hanging up on us after an hour of waiting on hold. This is dreadful that I've been trying for months to speak to someone and just keep getting ignored.

@virginmedia @virginmedia Still waiting for one of the floating staff to help? Hotspotting off my three mobile phone contract and then paying you guys for broadband is not what I signed up for. 🤬

@virginmedia Thanks, I've already made a complaint. Virgin TV Go not working when I want to watch live football, plus my broadband dropping out three times during client meetings in one week is not the service you should be providing for what you charge.

@virginmedia At the end of this after another hour back and forth you won’t be able to help me , you’ll say I need to speak to the tech team and need to call in ! Which it is impossible arghhhh

@virginmedia "the best way to get in touch is to call us", but that doesn't mean they'll ever answer, even after an hour of waiting on hold they will just hang up on you.

@virginmedia It was arranged in Friday for yesterday or today at the latest. Seeing as it took a large thread on here to get a callback re a complaint over 28 days old, I thought I should give you a heads up it’s getting to the end of day.... rather than chasing tomorrow when it’s late!

@virginmedia I nearly failed my degree because I had no internet, my anxiety and depression is at an 11 because you are trying to take advantage. And I still haven’t been contacted about my open complaint in cjm.
