    @virginmedia your service is a joke. Just taken me 32 minutes to change my bank details on the phone. Call centre staff should be able to speak the same language as your customers to a standard high enough to be able to do the job. Such a waste of time 😩😩😩

    @virginmedia Virgin Boardband why for the last 3 THURSDAY in a row that there is a Boardband outage in the RM26QD area. We work in a society where companies allow working from home. Called Customer Service who was just reading a script and repeating himself. Sort it out Virgin

    In a world that runs on the net if you are a @virginmedia customer you have to wait 4 days for an engineer to fix a modem, installed only in November 2018. IT’S NOT A JOKE!!! Thank you for letting me loose a day of work and 3 days worth of studying. #virginbroadband

    @virginmedia This is a broadband outage. Not a TV outage. A green flashing light on my router.

  • AlexClarkers699 Alex Clark (@AlexClarkers699) reported

    @virginmedia I have raised numerous complaints I have called multiple times and asked to cancel as it’s getting ridiculous and within 14 days and my rights. Yet gets ignored and money I apparently owe which I never agreed to. I called on 04th July after my last payment and cancelled

    @VirginMediaIE Hi Brian,sorry but I can't, I'm working on the 7th and I can't afford to take another day off to welcome a technician whom could not present himself at all like I experienced, I believe Virgin media owe me at least to solve the problem they caused, as I did all that was requested

  • mrspencermurphy spencer murphy (@mrspencermurphy) reported

    @virginmedia Have logged a complaint after 6 hours on the phone that got me nowhere. I have dealt with some bad customer service in my time but this was awful, the worst. After 15-20 years custom, you just blew it in a day.
