@virginmedia No, unfortunately I never got that far. Seriously considering just cancelling and going with a company that has more respect for its customers. Literally became a client 5 days ago

Great what deals you can get when you ring to cancel your contract 👍 @virginmedia a very helpful Hayley in your call centre. Paying less now for more than double what I had before.

@virginmedia Hi I text two evenings ago when you told me too, and then received a very generic response about upgrading my package online. I have since text again to say that the problem is with the increase and that I may need to cancel but nothing back yet. Over 6 hours on hold now to you!

@virginmedia Twice but very unsatisfactorily and although I was told at 5.30 that I would receive a call back within half an hour from a customer services manager, I am yet to receive that call. New customer extremely f***ed off if I'm honest

@virginmedia understand that like every other business that you’re short staffed with the pandemic, but the speed of internet recently has been shocking. Website is useless, community help is useless. Don’t want to ring up, yet they’re happy to still take my money every month.

@virginmedia just the most horrific service ever from you. Your agent agreed a discount due to poor service and to stop me leaving. It now transpires the discount is at the expense of skysportsHD which we did not agree. I’m now having to take it to ofcom because no one can help

@virginmedia every month I have the same issue. Go to pay bill and despite having Google auto password (which works on every other thing I log in) it says my log in is wrong and I have to reset it EVERY MONTH!! EVERY MONTH!! IT'S RIDICULOUS

Never felt so left down by @virginmedia after years of being a loyal customer my bill has increased by £20pm for no extra services when I rang to cancel I was offered £1 discount! To say I was insulted is an understatement, shocking service loyalty counts for nothing!!! Cancelled

@virginmedia Yep been doing that for 8 days as well. No help there just get fobbed off to a imaginary technician that never arrives. What am I meant to be paying for? a paperweight?
-
Phil Massey
(@Philmassey85) reported
@virginmedia Then when I contacted your tech team after all that I was advised to restart and give it 24 hours after being told it might be due to a local outage that they couldn't provide me any details about so asked to make a complaint! Which wasn't logged! And I am back to square one! 3/3

@virginmedia Connectivity problems and upgrading account. But according to the man I spoke to, only new customers get the better deals. He seemed to feel our connectivity problems were our problem, not yours.

@virginmedia Sends me off to a "Technician" that never arrives. Am really considering leaving as theres been no service here.

@ShippersUnbound @IvorGCampbell @virginmedia nightmare, tier 4 lockdown and no internet, bad news. Our Sky went goofy yesterday and that was bad enough.

Phil Massey
(@Philmassey85) reported
@virginmedia When I have spoken to someone I have tried router restarts, a new virgin hub was sent out, I've split my WiFi signal, taken off all devices bar 1 or 2 because there were too many connected! (Made no difference) And an engineer has been out and provided new cable. 2/3

I have never experienced such bad customer service before like I have just from @virginmedia . I am literally cancelling because of this. Horrendous experience- I’m going with @skytv #virginmedia #badcustomerservice #skytv

Sarah
(@blondetwin1710) reported
@virginmedia Well that would be easier, but having tried to change my email with yourselves already you haven't done so, so I cannot access online. Several issues and none of them resolved. I thought during times of pandemic WiFi services would be more up to scratch for people to stay at home
