matt (@sirtrevsheader) reported@virginmedia @virginmedia are basically conmen, still intermittent service still happens everytime its a warm day and football is on, yet it is impossible to speak to anyone on phone ,unable to book an engineer online,glad my contract ends in November cos I ain't renewing.
-
Belfast Books (@BelfastBooks) reported@TrevorM63275988 Having dealt with Virgin Media on behalf of clients for more than 20 years, I can say their customer service has changed dramatically. They now appear to rely heavily on contact deflection, a practice where customers are repeatedly directed towards web chat, FAQs and automated systems instead of being able to speak to a human adviser. While contact deflection is intended to reduce support costs, my experience is that it has reached the point where accessing a person has become unnecessarily difficult. I'll I'll be raising it with Ofcom under the complaint they have against them.
