@virginmedia No show yesterday over 2 hours lost time today trying to sort out the item which ironically are apart of an agreement with @virginmedia to resolve slow speeds and #badcustomerservice. Looks like you don’t ever listen back to your own training recorded conversations...

@virginmedia By all means better start reading up on the #badcusyomerservice I’ve had since 2020 about March? Virgin still hasn’t fulfilled it resolution agreement mad back in Nov 2020 and have had to chase and hound you with up to 7 calls as staff which should be able to, can’t get it right!

@virginmedia We agreed after 2 years of slow service you’d upgrade my 2 TiVo boxes to V6 and bring 3 pods to cover dead zones agreed in Nov last year and after 3 missed appointments and you calling me 3 days to confirm the work to do & you still **** it up. #fuckwits

Beware anyone thinking of joining @O2 they’ve just hiked up their rates and limited free data total usage when in Europe #ripoff also just merged with @virginmedia so expect the service to fall of a cliff when the call centres are rerouted to virgins Singapore call centres

@virginmedia can you tell me why we had internet issues for the last three days which are now solved, but I still cannot get Netflix, iPlayer, Amazon prime video or Now Tv. I am sick of paying for extra tv services I cannot access. Would you like to refund me for these days?

@virginmedia Hi I called yesterday and was told my poor Internet connection is due to fault F009107079 even though this does not come up on the service status page? So I can’t track it and see when this will be fixed can you help?

Sad in these times when a friend is forced to move home because her mortgage company won’t help her & now @virginmedia are charging her well over £200 as a disconnection fee. To leave a home she doesn’t actually want to leave.

@virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

(@athousandproj) reported
@virginmedia Yes. Looks fine at the moment. The issue is that it drops for 5 to 10 mins or so. Does not seem like much, but is a real problem when in a meeting. Sometimes just restarting to router works , sometimes I just have to wait. Never had this many outages when with BT.

@virginmedia Tried that and the customer service is shocking. I’ve been waiting 6 months. Can you please get a manager to call me!!!

(@vmbusinesshelp) reported
@tweeny17 @vmbusiness I do apologies for this, that is not how we should be speaking with customers, especially when they're already frustrated with service issues
-
Michael Keunhwi Ahn
(@michaelahn94) reported
@virginmedia Seriously ridiculous to ask me to pay £250 in early disconnection fee when I am cancelling because you simply do not provide service for my new flat? Would have made sense if the flat had a virgin media line. This is not how you treat your loyal customer of 2+ yrs

@virginmedia I have already done that many times and been promised each time that it will be done / without fail and then no resolution. Hence my complaint & tweet. Very disappointing

(@InvisibleElf) reported
@virginmedia Thank you. Please can you pass this down to customer service team as that's all we wanted to do. I don't want to take over the account, I just want to be able to speak to them about my own number. I'll get him to ring up and sort it 👍

@virginmedia Here is a line from my latest email to them: My primary complaint is about the lack of communication, particularly from the installation team. Your remedy for this is for me to contact the installation team.
