Is it possible to speak to a human being???

To say I am frustrated is an understatement! New customer who needs to register my account but getting potty-mouthed with the impossible to navigate computerised voice that seems unable to understand that I need to register my account, and just sends me around in circles. Been passed around multiple options that I don't want and still unable to get to where I need to be.

Can I speak to a human ????

    On our wavelength

    Choose the option; thinking of leaving us. You will be put through to retentions. 

    if you are still within your cooling off period, I recommend leaving. They don’t care and officially have the worst customer service in the country, according to Which. 

  • Here's how you might be able to reach a human at Virgin Media:

    1. Call Virgin Media Customer Support:  Dial 0345 454 1111, or 150 on a Virgin landline and when the automated system starts, repeatedly say Speak to an agent or Speak to a human.  This can sometimes bypass the automated options.

    2. Social Media: Reach out to Virgin Media on platforms like Twitter (@virginmedia) or their official Facebook page.  Many people find they get faster responses from the social media team.

    3. Online Chat: Visit the  virginmedia.com/support/help/contact-us and try using their live chat feature during their support hours.

    Wait here and ask if one of the Forum team could look into it for you, it could take a few few days for one of the Forum team to respond.
