Absolute rip of, poor communication can’t get hold of anyone to speak to. If you ever consider a contract with Virgin Media you must be mad.

Out of contract - phoned the `intend to leave department`. On hold as usual, then someone from India who you can`t understand comes on asking who I am etc. Tell them. Despite the fact they already know. Tell them out of contract and deciding to leave. Undistinguishable words follow, despite asking for a repeat, frustration of it all -I reluctantly hang up, still no better off..Oh for an English down to earth voice of reason !!

Customer service is terrible, I'm put off trying to contact them when i have an issue as you are either put into a long queue (35 mins is the norm for me) or sent through to different departments.

our phone bill went up to £129 so I called your company to leave so I can go to another company which was more value for money . after spending two hours on the phone call to one of your colleagues she blatantly lied and miss sold as a package but we didn't even want absolutely disgusting customer service . I will be calling back in the morning to sort this out and I will believe in your company

Really Bad customer service. Waiting for 4+ weeks to have the services available despite giving Virgin Media 2 months notice of when I want the services to go live. Contacted the Complaints team, Received an email to say they tried to contact me but they never did. Waiting for a call from the manager and for an update - nothing what so ever.

Virgin Media the company who have no Customer Service skills what so ever the staff are rude unable to fully understand your concerns reading off a script I would never ever recommend anyone to use their services as it the worst I have ever experienced in my life.

Honestly the worst customer service I've ever experienced. They sign you up for things you don't ask for, mess up your bills, break your online account so you can't even log in to see whats going on (they somehow had me removed from their system telling me I didnt have a service with VirginMedia anymore despite taking money from me and providing internet). This is made worse by the fact that YOU SIMPLY CANT GET THROUGH TO ANY HUMAN ON THE PHONE. I've called on multiple days at all hours and consistenly get put on hold for over an hour before it hangs up on me. Avoid these charlatans at all cost.

I wish I could do ZERO stars, our company had 24 months contract and when it came to end I did call them and ask for terminating the contract as I could find much cheaper with another broadband supplier, then they said notice must be given at least 90 days before the end of the minimum period. so I have to pay them another 90 days. the operator over the phone was so rude. Its total scam and I am not happy at all.

I been with Virgin media for many years as a broadband customer. About three months ago I requested a new sim card for my mobile phone, since receiving it I’v been having trouble getting the network connection, i.e. (Not registered on the network), would you please send a pass code so I can be registered and get connected to the network. I need a mobile phone for emergencies as my son and myself are disabled - with epileptic seizures, Parkinson’s, and mobility problems. Speaking to one of the staff about not having a network connection Also filled in a Virgin media complaint forms online, and they have completely ignored my request for help. Despite the fact I cannot use my mobile phone they are still charging me for the use of the Sim card which is absolutely useless to me, so I'll believe they are in breach of there contract and because of that I was stop payment for the SIM card and service.

Worst service even worse than talk talk never thought that would be possible. I am 3 months into a 12 month contract. Which I have been emailing and contacting virgin with regards to my contract they have broken there terms by not providing me with what is in my contract. After speaking with customer service today they said that the contract they sent me via email is the contract I have to abide by. Not the one signed by me and the customer sales man . That email was in my spam and only seen it today. 3 months on nothing as been sorted. So stopped payments and contacted trading standards. I have completly refused to pay as they have suspended my services and not rectified my issues.from installation date in July. Absolutely disgusting service and I look forward to them taking me to court

Let's first go back 12 months, I was coming to the end of my contract, I had 3 weeks remaining before it ended and was going to leave VIRGIN MEDIA unless I got a decent new contract offer. My package had been around £68.00 a month and it consisted of 200mbs fibre, TV-sports-phone it was a great deal at the time, but they had said to keep that deal for another 12 month would be £100.00, so I declined the offer and asked them to terminate the contract at the end date. SO HERE COMES THE "ACCIDENTAL DISCONNECTION" (FIRST TIME) The next day, I went to log on to the internet only to find that it was not working, I spent a good 30 minutes testing everything, on my side. All the green lights were on the router, checked my computer was working correctly, and of course the "unplug everything, wait 10 seconds, then plug everything back in".....still Nothing, still no internet. So I decide to ring VIRGIN MEDIA to see if there was a fault, and low and behold the landline was dead too. At this point I began to realize that they had cut me off straight after the phone call, not when my contract ended.Which was agreed in the phone conversation. I eventually got though to VIRGIN MEDIA, and they confirmed they had cut off my services and claimed it was a mistake, and put me through to the "disconnections" department, which is in real life the,DON'T LEAVE, WE WILL GIVE YOU DISCOUNT TO SAY.. Department, after being brow-beaten I agreed to say, with the same package including everything I had before but now it would cost me £75.00 a month not £68.00 a month. Now, lets fast-forward 12 months, my contract is ending, I got charged last month £83.00 for the £75.00 a month contract (no added costs by me for phone calls) so I contacted VIRGIN MEDIA complaints 3 times via email.. No response, then I phoned to be told "one of your discounts ended||".which Is inappeasable as it was a contract for £75 for 12 months, per month. At this point I informed them NOT to roll over the contract, as he would jump to £110 a month, the person on the phone from Virgin Media apologies for the billing issue and said the contract would end on the end date as asked.(3 weeks from now) NOW GUESS WHAT...THE SAME THING AGAIN, THEY HAVE CUT OFF MY SERVICES STRAIGHT AWAY. DOING THIS INVOICE COULD BE A MISTAKE DOING THIS TWICE IS A CLEAR TACTIC TO GET YOU TO RING UP & BE TALKED INTO RENEWING YOUR CONTRACT BY THE WELL TRAINED "Disconnection TEAM|" I have had nothing but good experience using Virgin Media products... Fiber-TV-phone, but this underhand tactic to disrupt your contracted services, so they can attempt to stop you leaving has left me with no option but to leave. So, as I said, I rang up VIRGIN MEDIA, was told "oh I don't know why your TV & INTERNET has been disconnected, we are so sorry" then passed on to someone else that then went on to say that they would try to reconnect the services,,,but,,,, whilst you are on the line .....at That point I know the sales patter was about to start, and stopped him in his tracks."I just want reconnecting until end of contract" OK, your supply will be on within 72 hours//////////// 72 HOURS--- 3 DAYS TO GET RECONNECTED!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO here are my issues OVER CHARGED £83 NOT £75 FOR A Existing CONTRACT 3 EMAILS SENT VIA THE COMPLAINTS FORM ON THE WEBSITE, (NO RESPONSE) EMAIL SENT TO VIRGIN MEDIA VIA THEIR 3RD PARTY COMPLAINTS SYSTEM (NO RESPONSE) SUPPLY FOR TV AND INTERNET CUT OFF WITH NO WARNING (3 WEEKS BEFORE CONTRACT ENDS) RANG UP TO SEE WHAT AND WHY THIS HAD HAPPENED (TOLD TO RING BACK AFTER 8AM) RANG BACK AND TOLD IT WILL TAKE UP TO 72 HOURS TO RECONNECT.... & GIVEN NO REASON WHY BY WHO OR ADEQUATE REASON AS TO WHY DISCONNECTED OF MY SERVICES.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOT HAPPY WAITING 72 HOURS, SO RANG BACK.... Customer support operator name : MANVI I ASKED Q1...WHY WAS MY TV INTERNET DISCONNECTED? YOUR ANSWER IS...."SOME OTHER REASON," Q2...Who DISCONNECTED IT?... answer...."YOUR ABLY TO ANSWER THAT" Q3...AM I GOING TO BE CHARGED FORE MY PACKAGE WHEN I AM NOT RECEIVING MY SERVICES? ANSWER... "ACCOUNT BEEN DISCONNECTED" MANVI decided she did not want to bother attempting to help, she put me on hold and passed me to another Customer support member this time it was Emma so I asked EMMA the same questions Q1.WHY WAS MY TV INTERNET DISCONNECTED? I WILL HAVE A LOOK OVER YOUR INFO TO FIND OUT WHY...(PUT ON HOLD) THEN TOLD THAT IT HAD BEEN AUTHORIZED TO BE DISCONNECTED BY A "Joshua" AFTER MY PHONE CALL REGARDING DISCONNECTION AT END OF CONTRACT. Q2... Who DISCONNECTED IT? Joshua Q3 WHAT'S HAPPENING ABOUT THE OVER CHARGE?...AM I GOING TO BE CHARGED For MY PACKAGE WHEN I AM NOT RECEIVING MY SERVICES? Joshua EMPLOYEE NUMBER JOSH SAID.....Customer, WAS TOLD DISCONNECTION WOULD BE DONE , AND CLAIMS HE EXPLAINED RETURN OF VIRGIN MEDIA GOODS .. WHICH WAS A TOTAL LIE BEFORE ENDING THE PHONE CALL I ASKED FOR A REQUESTED A DATA ACCESS REQUEST..FOR INFO HELD ON MYSELF IN Regards TO THIS SITUATION WHICH IS MY Righto DO SO UNDER THE DATA PROTECTION ACT. WHAT'S HAPPENING ABOUT THE OVER CHARGE? SO, LETS LOOK AT THE DESCRIPTION THIS HAS CAUSED ME.. TIME WASTED TESTING MY Equipment TO SEE WHY MY TV AND INTERNET HAD STOPPED WORKING TIME WASTED CONTACTING VIRGIN MEDIA LIVE FOOTBALL (3 GAMES SUNDAY / 1 GAME MONDAY)SKY SPORTS & BTSPORT ACCESS TO MY NETFLIX ACCOUNT(A SERVICE I PAY FOR) ACCESS TO MY AMAZON PRIME VIDEO ACCOUNT(A SERVICE I PAY FOR) UNABLE TO WATCH ANY TV Shows CHANNELS(A SERVICE I PAY FOR) UNABLE TO WATCH MY RECORDED PROGRAMS(A SERVICE I PAY FOR) UNABLE TO ACCESS PS4 GAMES AS THEY REQUIRE A INTERNET CONNECTION (RED DEAD 2) AND AS I AM DISABLED, MY INTERNET IS NEEDS TO ORDER MY GROCERY, WHICH LUCKILY I DID ON FRIDAY, BEFORE VIRGIN MEDIA CUT OFF MY INTERNET AND TV. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Over my time with Virgin Media I have spent well over £1000 on your services, always held Virgin Media services as one of, if not the best service provides. But after the no response to billing issues using your complaints form, the cutting off of services and the lack of clarity or interest in resolving this issue/issues I am left with no option but to consider this grounds for breach of contract, gross misconduct and flat out lies by Josephus makes the thought of using Virgin Media a impossibility, as the stress involved is not something I need or want, and do not expect from a company that lives and dies on Customer satisfaction.

Called them 3 separate times to sort out my bill. Turns out none of the call handlers processed my discount. In the end I decided it was easier just to forget the discount and pay the difference! A week later after filling out a bad review I was called by a Virgin Media Relations Manager asking “why the bad review” and if he could help. I explained it all and he promised me he’d sort the discount. I even received and email telling what my new bundle would be. 2 weeks later my bill is emailed to me and there was no discount applied! I give up.....useless company. If I could go elsewhere I would but don’t think Sky is much better.
