V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England@virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

-
john (@jhargie4) reported@o2 @virgin @virginmedia CEO LUTZ SCHUELER received a call from your office regarding my complaint and when I asked a direct question rather than answer your representative went silent before abruptly disconnected the call with no warning. Great customer service.
-
John 🏴🇬🇧 (@John_Of_Eng) reported@virginmedia your app and customer service are absolutely dreadful. I only want to change a direct debit date for Christs sake.
-
BirchillsBoy (@BirchillsBoy) reportedIt's later this month I can put my notice in with Virgin Media. £40 a month for just broadband is too much. Speed is fast and the service has been good, but I am now running a 5G router alongside from Three at £11 a month rising to £22 next year. Similar speeds. Financial decision.

DC (@dc250705) reported@virginmedia 13 hours until you notify by text that something is wrong…communication quite crap isn’t it. Now told not fixed until 0200
