@virginmedia just wasted two hours on web chat trying to get a better sim deal as advertised. 45 mins to get through security. Tried to check/sign in on the Virgin mobile app and it doesn’t work for me or my husband, despite having an account for years. An absolute joke! 👎🏻

@EppsRacer @virginmedia Gave up with @virginmedia many moons ago with the internet constantly being down which was laughable as I'd been talked into an upgrade that would cure the issue. Gave up with the call centre and sent a letter basically saying stuff! your contract

@virginmedia Hi John. Still no resolution I’m afraid. It’s getting closer to next bill date. Which BTW I’ve received two bills for. One at £27.49 and the other £113.00 and a double bill request which is laughable! I still don’t get why the next gen box is influencing my request. Today please

@virginmedia ....before going to lunch. Your system is set to terminate unanswered calls after just over an hour. This is much more enraging than having to wait in a queue. We’re British, it’s what we do. We DO NOT HANG UP on people. It is beyond rude. #rude #virginmediasuck #stillnointernet

@virginmedia You are the worse Internet provider in the PR postcode what has happened 4weeks now intermittent service its like flip a coin to see if the Internet is working. And the lies about adjusting my bill has never happened time to say goodbye.

@virginmedia The hold times aren’t the issue. I’d wait happily if I got an answer at the end. The issue is being hung up on after an hour then having a call answered only to have to listen to dead air for over 30 minutes while whoever is supposed to be helping has forgotten to logout ....1/2

@virginmedia Problems with my TV very frustrating not being able to speak to anyone. For a communication provider the service being offered is not acceptable

@KGthaComedian Virgin media are possibly the most hideous company you will ever have to deal with. Robbing, rude liars. Until you come on Twitter and they want to be your best friend.

@virginmedia I have issues at least once a week and I’m always told about work in my area, this is not an issue on my end as I have run through the procedures you send over about 6 times, unfortunately in the area I live there are little in way of alternatives otherwise I’d already have left
-
Dennis Baldwin
(@DennyBaldwin) reported
@virginmedia Not from what they have been told but we were told by yourselves to give them a date which you provided to cancel and it would be switched over and then it was installed last Friday and still haven’t had anything about the old number being transferred

@MikeEllis65 @virginmedia Virgin customer service is appalling, thankfully they closed the shop in my town, the staff there were downright insulting, literally. I use Virgin for broadband and have no problem service since I use ethernet, their wifi is completely useless and they don't care!

@virginmedia how do I complain? I’ve had terrible customer service when I first tried to open up a phone contract on the 21st March Only to be lied to, hung up on and spoken to like I’m a child and when I asked to speak to someone senior was told I wouldn’t be able to? Ridiculous
