@dearbhaiiile @virginmedia They seem to have no concern for accessibility either, with phone support pretty much being the only option. Not great for those who are hard of hearing or have a communication difference IMO.

@virginmedia twice now in a week where i have had no tv/broadband , once when it was off for over 12 hrs and now it suggests we wont have a service until 4pm tomorrow. Not good enough. I pay a subscription to watch live sport and i cant watch it. I want some form of compensation

@beatlebaby84 @virginmedia With all these services I record the time, explain I'm busy and ask them to credit me £20, they never do, but often they'll credit £10 or £8, always worth a try!

@PhilipLennon @SkyIreland @VirginMediaIE Had exactly the same issue when we moved in here, Phil! Only to be told it would be another 4 weeks before an engineer could come out. Cancelled and went to @virginmedia - up and running 2 days after. Thank you. Good night.

@virginmedia honestly your customer service is disgrace. your advisor gave false info to get a sale last wk as confirmed by your advisor on my call today, repeatedly put on a silent hold with no signposting so it sounded like been disconnected, blind transferred then systems down

(@tyler56895) reported
@virginmedia Yes, many calls, but not much sympathy or interest from Vigins side. Apart from the price, their service is poor. WiFi in the next room is hopeless and they have the original TiVo which is horrendously slow.

@MartinSLewis Well @MartinSLewis you have never failed me before but I took your advice to call @virginmedia and haggle my bill. First call price went up by £7 asked to disconnect and they were happy to do this. I left it and called back 30 minutes later and the price went up again by £14 🙈

@UnofficialOA They never say 'Oh, we aren't very busy today. We'll be with you in a jiffy!' Though I only waited 15 minutes for @virginmedia yesterday and had a very good outcome.
