I joined 2 months ago, I got 500Mbps on day 1 but not since, had to make complaints as never installed correctly at start, Internet speed test are all over the place, was offered a pod and 8 pound credit monthly to cover cost, nearly 2 weeks no pod arrived, messaged asking them to check how long, now asking me for evidence of pod... so frustrating am considering ombudsman next. Any advice welcome.Complaint - installation
Hi, I joined Virgin about 2 months ago and the experience has been terrible. To start the internet was unable to be installed and after multiple failures to turn up from engineers and installation teams, I finally had my wires ran in the back garden after being told initially I would have to wait 6-8 weeks. This is after multiple calls and days booked off work losing money and being away from my newborn to sit in an empty new house due to false promises. I was told that upon the construction team finishing their work I was to call up to claim some compensation for all of this. Once complete, I called and was told I would then have to log another complaint and all the details had to be taken AGAIN! I then waited a week and heard nothing from Virgin which is just a re occurring theme. I must of been promised 20 times I would receive a call, text some form of update and I have received 0. I have them had to call back and told I would have to log another complaint, I refused as this is ridiculous and was finally handed over to someone who I believe was in the complaints team and was of English origin. Once again, I had to have all my notes taken down as it was a complete mess and was offered £25 compensation for which is just insulting so, I refused and had it escalated to a manager who booked me in for a call the next day at 10:30. I never received the call. 1 week later I still have had no contact so I called again on the 26th and was told there was no complaints department and I could not be passed through. I asked to speak to a manager and then all of a sudden a ‘manager’ of the complaints department gets on the phone even though I had just been told there was no complaints department , strange. His name was ‘Vaibhav’ and he would not pass me over and was offering a little more compensation and asking me how much I would like? Is it not on your terms to offer the amount? I refused again as it is ridiculous the amount offered after the experience I have had and the amount of time the issues have been ongoing. I escalated again to a ‘deadlock’ team I believe, and was promised again a call back the next day as I didn’t believe it was gonna happen and what do you know I receive no call AGAIN! Issue after issue, lie after lie and I am nowhere still after weeks and weeks of just a terrible, terrible experience. I need some answers now or this is going to be taken to a third party, I know the process and I will take my notes, recordings and show what I have been going through with this absolute joke if an experience. I need answers ASAP! [MOD EDIT: Subject title changed for clarity]
