@virginmedia Please don’t conveniently close the live chat because you cut my phone and you’re having massive issues. The phone is my business phone and you are now liable for any missed work. Sort it out, shocking service.

@virginmedia Amazing how you won’t sort out the problem with the account holder but you’ll speak to someone else about the account without the account holder’s permission!

@virginmedia I have continually tried to call, your wait times are really unacceptable, anyway I have also opted for the text service, however no text received. I am losing faith I’ve been waiting since August for some kind of contact from you. Any other options?

Any @virginmedia customers out there who’ve been landed a price increase - just ring them on 03454541111 and the automated service immediately offers you a £4.50 pm discount for 6 months = £27 of savings. Bit of a weird way of doing business but obvs hope many just suck it up. 👍

@sarahjcreative @virginmedia I've already tried complaining to VM on the forum and to several customer customer support and technical support teams but they won't do anything. It's clearly a problem affecting a lot of people in a certain area, but they don't care

@virginmedia I registered for SMS updates but didn’t receive any. However the updates on the app from yesterday about estimated fix: 1. 17:05; 2. 22:30; 3. 10:00; 4. 14:00 - it’s ridiculous. I wonder what update will come at 2pm 🤔

@virginmedia Thanks, that is the number that cut me off. I was annoyed but I stayed polite. I know the person on the phone is not to blame but it is frustrating to be passed to three different people and have to explain the situation 3 times with no solution.
