    @virginmedia I spent an hour on my mobile to Virgin today as landline isn't working. Spoke to three different people and, finally they told me it was a hardware issue with my phone, not the line. I have borrowed two phones from neighbours and they don't work either #virginmedia

    @virginmedia Ad rather u tell ur customers correct info when they are having to leave ur service due to storm damage on the roof of their home and ur agents say any old crap to get them off the phone and charge them for the box and wifi hub,

  • Lillput Liz Crew (@Lillput) reported

    @Woodpunk Urgh - that's dreadful. When my partner died I notified Virgin media and they acknowledged my correspondence to him. When I complained, they sent the 'apology for being so insensitive' to him. Customer service in these places totally sucks. Hope you can sort the buggers out

  • ppfk74 Paul (@ppfk74) reported

    @virginmedia @MissFlyByNight Given the well evidenced appalling customer service will Virgin be extending the deadline to cancel for those customers you missold “fixed price” contracts to?

  • toriat5 Victoria Tolson (@toriat5) reported

    @virginmedia Says there isn’t a complaint associated with my account, guess I’ll just keep waiting for that promised callback….

  • LiuBan Sergio (@LiuBan) reported

    @virginmedia it is unacceptable that in 2022 you still need to phone to cancel your service and doing it through the website is not an option. I've been waiting in this phone call for 50 minutes 😡

  • itsfrankywhite Frank White (@itsfrankywhite) reported

    @virginmedia I am incredibly disappointed in your service, your customer service promised multiple times our line would be installed, and here we are 66 days later with a voicemail telling us you’re cancelling our contract. Do you think that’s acceptable?
