Well laters #virginmedia I will be off to sky when the contracts up next month. Terrible service, no TV again today and yet you still call me everyday to get me to take out another contract.

@virginmedia Still no response. 19 days and counting 🙄. It’s clear you’ve been lying to get rid of me. What are you going to do to resolve this issue before I contact ombudsman? A suggestion: you arrange for someone to contact me. By now it should be clear to you your support doesn’t work.

@virginmedia is this the kind of bad service we now have to pay for? Charging us fibre prices but getting slow speed, can’t call the contact centre. Internet as slow as a sloth in TN233JA area This is very bad service

2. @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk no idea how to get into the account and claim it!! Can't seem to find my own account under either of my usual emails. Obvs I would like the credit as cash as I no longer hold a virgin media account so hoping customer service can help me locate it

@virginmedia Last week after your call centre agent refused to escalate the 2months of issues highlighted in this thread.

@virginmedia December. Official complaint prior to that. Please read back through your thread, the broken promises and the lies then come back with a proposal to resolve.

@virginmedia another poor lengthy phone call with one of your customer service advisers following being mis-sold your services. Refusal to listen to our original telephone calls where we were mis-sold the service and refusal to accept any responsibility.

@virginmedia and after a previous phone call a few weeks ago where your adviser said we could write a letter of complaint, we have still received no response in writing as requested and today been told it’s not your policy to reply? Terrible service!

@tryingattimes @virginmedia 100% correct took ages to cancel my 80yo mum's service when my dad got vascular dementia. They sent me all sorts of patronising messages on here. All designed to extract money from vulnerable people. STEER WELL CLEAR!

@virginmedia Having just looked at model photos it's the Hub 4 I have, set to Modem Mode. The connection drop problem is with the Hub itself (the solid white ring light then starts glowing to show it is "connecting"), so the connection drop affects both wired and wireless connections.

@virginmedia do you have ANY customer service people working? I have tried ringing you for the last 24 hours and constantly get a ‘ring back later’ message. The service these days is appalling. I sent a tweet yesterday that mentioned Amazon and they replied to me. Virgin didn’t!

@virginmedia can anyone in the UK retentions department actually listen to a call and call a customer back? I've tried calling this morning to check progress after more than 2 weeks and the people answering the phone can't understand what I'm asking I've been hung up on 3 times

@virginmedia Yes have posted in forums - no response, called, live chats, SMS. full works. Engineers even told us prob is not at our property as far back as Oct/Nov and neighbours have same issue but nothing is done, call centre staff are rude and treat you with contempt. Ref is C0912202465

@virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.

@virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.

@virginmedia on top of hundreds of spam junk emails we have umpteen scam calls on the landline. Very day I am getting increasingly saddened by Virgin Media’s inability to stop scammers and spam flooding my system. Very expensive terrible service

(@Damien_Ribbans) reported
@virginmedia “Intermittent signal issue in my area” for the third day in a row. Very unhelpful when I’m trying to work from home as it keeps dropping off during video call meetings. I can’t carry on with such an unreliable connection, it’s not workable.

(@Lazysod) reported
@virginmedia Ok I'll be more clear if you can';t get the initial point. You are keeping paying customers in the dark, we don;'t know you even know what is going on, never mind if you have engineers on site fixing it or IF it's fixable at all! I can't even work from home because of this

@virginmedia The phone call was promised on Monday by Customer Service. To discuss what on earth is happening. Apparently a visit to renew cable is booked for 27/7/22. As I stated that will only happen if access point ‘unbunged’ first. Read early Tweet re schedule.

@MiserygutsPetty I USED TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I EVENTUALLY WORKED OUT IT WAS THE AERIAL SOCKET CAUSING THE ISSUE & GOT THE LANDLORD TO CHANGE IT. FIXED IT. THEN, 4 MONTHS LATER, I WENT WITH VIRGIN MEDIA & DON'T NEED AN AERIAL NOW.
