@virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

@virginmedia I tried again today. After faffing with phone, then faulty website, and back to phone, I eventually found a very helpful assistant who managed to convince me to stay; happily. It was close though, as much room for improvement. Please sort out your customer services & website.

Please could @virginmedia on 0330 303 5309 stop calling me, then immediately hanging up. That’s rude. I’ve now blocked your number.

@virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

@virginmedia All of our WiFi appliances stopped working at the exact same time. The WiFi keeps trying to connect but just whirls and whirls. No issues with our appliances

@virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

@virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12. That’s just today and this has gone on for weeks. Pretty sure you would’ve lost me as a very longstanding customer by the time 28 days is up.

@virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service

@virginmedia Actually that’s wrong, I received an email to advise that the complaint had been resolved and had to respond saying it hasn’t. What hope is there when you can’t even get a complaint right?

@virginmedia I’ve already raised a complaint. I spoke to someone in the Stage 2 complaints team who told me it’s being dealt with and, as already mentioned, a manager would call me back at 4.30 which didn’t happen. Can someone please sort this out?

@virginmedia so after weeks of unbelievably poor broadband and customer service there was an offer from you to resolve the situation with a web chat at 11am, with a link being provided here. No link. I’m lost for words

@thorogodies @Missbwattie @virginmedia We don’t have many problems with ours, surprised you do, as you’re only round the corner, must be a box problem.

@virginmedia is it common practice to deny your customers a SAR under Gdpr because they don't know how to do it? Is it common for your managers not to call back? Fantastic service from Jonas.. Not and his manager, Queenie, who didn't call me back.

@virginmedia Not reaching out, its a pointless, you dont solve anything. I might as well have a chat with myself when we call for support. If you want to help call my husband to discuss our issue, hes the account holder! I did take over the call today for fear of him self combusting 🙄

Currently on the phone to @virginmedia who are increasing our £81 monthly to £101 (because they can) and when we explain we can't afford that increase they say we can cancel as long as we pay an exit fee. We are 12 months into our 18 month contract....1/2

@virginmedia 5 hours now. Hour and a half since transferred to retentions without a response. I take it they won't be answering today ? I've gone from minutes away from a recontact after being a customer for 27 years to thinking on cancelling my direct debit through no response. Come 9pm I am

@virginmedia Yes 26th April!!! A full SIX WEEKS after the original date you gave! What sort of goodwill gesture can you offer them?! Nearly 80, rely on home delivery shopping, had no phone line for 6 weeks and no internet!! I can give you account details so you can help their situation?

@virginmedia I’m constantly just being passed from pillar to post. Not one person has taken any ownership of trying to solve this issue.
