@virginmedia I was told there was a problem with the cell that has now been rectified. There was nothing at all wrong with the phone but it cuts out all the time. Always has...

1/2 My exp. with @VirginMedia has been a farce involving incorrect contract lengths, engineers insisting my package can't be installed bc customer service sold me a service that doesn't exist, phone calls from Virgin saying the engineers are wrong...

@virginmedia 4 month countdown to get rid of you your customer service is beyond rude. Your technical support is lacking in manners and availability. @SkyUK we are on our way back sorry for leaving biggest mistake ever. We may have saved £20 but not worth the shit service

@virginmedia I shared the screen prints of what they said. No attempt was made to diagnose or resolve. Only to sell boosters despite me advising them I have major WiFi issues. I’ve kept all the messages and you did bring but try to con me out of more money. And now you call me a liar!!

@virginmedia @DannyHackett Had a moment around a decade ago where they sent me through the song and dance of rebooting etc. So I cut it short, told them to look at the signal levels. They did. We agreed that it’s not localised to my property, they fixed. No pointless faffing.

@virginmedia @DannyHackett Be careful with the fob offs Danny - if it’s a connection problem (not your in house WiFi) then Virgin, as with any other cable company, can see your connection status from the modem to their services via DOCSIS and also should be able to see logs too 😉

@virginmedia I shall be raising a complaint yes. No attempt to find out if the router is faulty, just trying to sell more services. You have failed to deliver against your contract and the customer service is shocking. My complaint shall go to OFCOM also @Ofcom

@VMO2News @virginmedia Would not recommend Virgin. Had more problems with them than we ever had with sky and BT together. No WiFi for 3 days - “due to an outage” they say. How is this acceptable? Terrible service.

@virginmedia my Internet wasn't working this morning. I have tried the service status which tells me to wait 24 hours. I have reset my hub, factory reset my hub and the light on the hub is white but no device is working. Followed all your guides online too.

@virginmedia interesting conversation with your helpdesk. My 'super' hub 3 is experiencing intermittent WiFi issues with signal drop outs; Nothing they can do... really? You only guarantee ethernet and not WiFi? Thanks(!) Maybe I should reconsider supplier?

@virginmedia @curlylew06 @richardbranson No point raising complaints as you just ignore them or offer tiny compensation for the trouble caused. Virgin Media getting worse each year

@virginmedia I have spoken to one of your staff but he could/ would not cancel it but was trying to sell me more broadband which I do not need. He said he would call back but that didn’t happen. I have come up against a brick wall. Please provide an email address so that I can cancel this.

@Ed6114 @virginmedia No it's exactly the service you have given Ed, me and a lot of other customers. Your customer service is absolutely awful as 8s your comppaimts handling procedure.
