@virginmedia Maybe you can pass on the fact 2 calls to two separate call centres (first was India, second Scotland) both dropped mid call. Assuming it wasn’t the operators maybe there is an issue. Didn’t happen to Philpines on third call. Annoying when hold times are long

@virginmedia No COM number. Email from resolution team saying sorry got a complaint. The guy I spoke to yesterday chasing up the complaint was dreadful. Put me on hold for 30mins of a 45min call. Ended up by saying the person handling this will call me. Clearly wanted to get rid of me.

Intermittent network service from @virginmedia again, seems I need to use my reliable personal hotspot from @VodafoneUK - at least I have a fallback plan.

@virginmedia I’m trying to solve a billing issue it’s been a month but It’s very difficult since your costumer service is terrible. I’ve paid all my bills but you are insisting that I didn’t. I’ve been at Bank I could confirm that I’ve paid. This is driving me crazy!

@virginmedia The account holder is my husband. The account number is 104507406 area 26. I made a complaint 2 days ago, where I put all payments receipts numbers but I’ve not received a response until now.

@virginmedia So basically your as pointless and useless as the agent I spoke to yesterday. You've listened to my complaint and not moved it on or helped. You've asked me to contact them AGAIN. why did u bother asking me for all the info. Total pointless exercise. Very disappointing.

@virginmedia My new price would be cheaper. All brilliant. I then rec'd an email to say thanks for the changes to the package and I've had things removed. I asked on 3 occasions that was anything changing, agent said 100% no! Totally lied too. Very poor. Please explain how this is acceptable

@virginmedia I used your on line option of raising a complaint as the previous call took 30mins. Could handle another long call. Nothing has happened so chased it up yesterday. 45min call and nothing resolved. Agent just said someone will call me today. So far no call.

@virginmedia your broadband is useless. Your customer service is non-existent and your product is a joke.

@virginmedia Sorry to say that I contacted your online chat, but they offered no significant update other than 9th Sept for a fix and no offer of compensation as I am not experiencing a total loss of service. Not happy at all.

@jayrayner1 @virginmedia Two Tips: 1) Use a free gmail/hotmail/yahoo email address and never your broadband suppliers one, so changing is easier (or use email addresses associated with your website if you have one). 2) Stop giving out your landline number, easier to port your mobile across suppliers.

@jayrayner1 @virginmedia Cue “Hi Jay, can you DM us?” replies. Twitter is terrible for those on the bad side of poor corporate service. It tries to create the illusion of response and responsibility. It serves up very little of these.

@virginmedia Saying no issues as per usual. It cuts out every day, multiple times a day. I want all this putting on my account so when it comes to cancel the contract you know exactly why!

@jayrayner1 @virginmedia Faff or not I'll be looking at moving away from virgin. Never had a major issue with service but something needs to be done about prices for both loyal and new customers being more aligned. Getting shafted for loyalty needs to end

@virginmedia why am I getting aggressive texts from a bot telling me if I don't "pick a date" for collection of my equipment you'll just turn up whenever you like in the next 30 days. I'm trying to say I WILL BE AT WORK. Help! I'm not here during the week anymore.

@jayrayner1 @virginmedia Virgin may have its own cable, but dont all other providers use the same physical line down the street? Our neighbour has BT and we @plusnet. It regularly shoots us an error message at about 9.30 pm and then continues to work as normal. Glitch yesterday was 9.20 pm.

@virginmedia Hi John , I read your link thank you. I raised a complaint. I received no outcome from my raised complaint that changes anything about the terrible customer service that I experienced. In fact my raised complaint sent me to the telephone number I raised the complaint about
