Terrible service
I signed up back in December. Installation pushed back, then back again to March due to a construction issue which I thought fair enough. Shouldn’t take 3 months though.
I had worked for VM for 10 years i. the past so I know these things happen. Had another email and text this morning saying that’s it’s now been put on hold further.
Not being willing to wait any more, I rang to cancel the order. I chose the option to cancel an order, spoke to someone who then put me through to the pre install cancellation team (which is the option I chose in the first place but there we go). After passing DPA checks I was hung up on.
So I called back, repeated the same as above only to be hung up on again. 40 minutes of my morning wasted.
I just want to get the order cancelled. Why do Virgin think it’s ok to treat customers like this still? If someone wants to cancel just let them do it.
Is there anyone who can help here as I’m getting stressed out by it now. I’d rather stay with Talk Talk. Their internet is slower but at least it’s here, it works and their customer service has been light years better than what I have experienced so far.
you have just seen how todays VM works - if you worked for them it must have been a while ago as they have been this bad for a long time
you might get through to someone who sorts it - no one on here can - well they can be generally refuse to
if your original order has an install date then just screw them - take their money and run - they owe you £6 ish for each day past that original install date up to when they finally get you up and running - you might have to go to the arbitrator but you will get it - once its installed keep it or cancel in the 14 day cooling off period
now or then the best way to cancel is via a recorded delivery signed for letter - other than that offshore will ignore you - hang up on you or say its gone through and likely has not
