I appreciate call operators are only doing their job but if I wanna cancel… I wanna cancel. Must be policy for @virginmedia to delay customer decision & fob us off with “ring back next week” to get an extra month ££! Well u’ve just thrown my “loyalty” right back in my face!😡

@virginmedia you’re broadband service is disgusting! Down more times than enough and your call centre staff are totally clueless! I guess I’m looking for a new service provider!

@virginmedia been without any form of data, email , Whatsapp, calls from 11am with #virginmobile looks like it’s UK wide ! Dreadful service. Just catching up on emails now in a local pub!! Awful communication by a company that claims to be so good at it.

@Tweeter_Tori @LindaGHug @virginmedia Exactly. It's great when it works. If it doesn't work then it's no good. How fast do you need. Noone needs 100mps it's a waste

@virginmedia It is now, I think, five months since I made a complaint which has yet to be dealt with. To say that I'm not impressed with your 'customer services' would be a bit of an understatement.

@virginmedia 2/2 on hold for 30mins to be hung up on when connected. Not a great way to treat your new customers. Regretting opting for your services so far.

@virginmedia disgusting customer service. On hold for 20 minutes for someone to answer and say they need to transfer me..on hold for a further 28 minutes for someone to answer, ask my name and hang up! Rang back for an automated service to say you're too busy to talk to me 😡

@virginmedia been on hold for 50 minutes waiting to renew to a lesser deal than a new customer can get, online, with the click of a button! Think your customer service needs some Oomph!

@virginmedia Absolute joke! After telling them it's not a virgin mobile they said that chat was for faults only and to ring the same premium rate number to speak to someone. Your customer service really is laughable

So I get a text off @virginmedia to say my service will be suspended due to a missed payment, I haven't even received a bill! 😡

@15minutegamer @virginmedia These go from when it's actually due and not from when it was paid which in my opinion is stupid. Yet I just get this message to say that and I've not even had an ebill.

@virginmedia it’s slightly better now but these issues keep a curing now and then but nothing gets done about it I rang about a month ago with same problem so you’re team said they will give a reduction in my bill the following month but that never happened so I’m done with you.

@virginmedia your customer service is shocking! I phoned advising of broadband issues to be met with denial and to be told that I wasn’t having any problems and that there were no indications of any issues at all. Without even a hint of irony that my call may be an indication!!!

@Lea_Plath @virginmedia It is mostly a data privacy issue, yes - under GDPR & the UK's data protection laws they need a lawful basis for processing and I have a right to restrict processing. Processing in this case being passing information to Yahoo search, and as that is based on Bing, on to Microsoft

@virginmedia Nope, you tell me to ring to get an engineer but you just get fobbed off by automatic systems that said they will text me and never do, literally cannot get through to speak to anyone
