Impossible to Speak To Exec Team
I have been trying for 3 months now to sort out a billing problem for my daughter. Initially this was being dealt with by Deborah in the Executive Team in the UK. I can no longer get through to her. Customer service on the phone saying they 'don't have the facility' to transfer me. I have emailed the exec office email countless times and get no response whatsoever. . WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO??No renewal contract but Netflix downgraded
I renewed my package as per my online account which stated ‘Choose this deal and keep your current Virgin Media plan without losing anything.’ I received conflicting information and prices from Customer Services, but in view of the above statement and that my pre contract documents stated ‘Netflix Standard’, I renewed. I have today received an email from Netflix confirming my plan is now with Ads. However, I have not even received my formal contract documents from Virgin and my account has not even been updated. Virgin have misrepresented the renewal of my contract. It stated in writing I would not lose anything and therefore my services should be exactly the same as what I was receiving prior to my renewal. Additionally, my online account stated one price 2 months before renewal, but increased the cost 20 days before it was due. Nowhere did it state that the price would increase the closer it got to renewal. I am now paying more for less!!! The service from Virgin is abysmal. I have been a customer from 20+ years. At least it seems that Sky are upfront about their services and charges. I expect to receive what I signed up to (the same as I had before) and I will take this matter further, but I am unsure what steps to take, as when you call Customer Services they are very unhelpful and previous experience with the Complaints Team is that they do not actually read your complaint. Any advice?TNT Removed from package
Hi - I am furious that TNT seems to have been removed from my package despite it still showing in 2 places on 'My Account' page as being included in the Maxit package. Inclusion BT/TNT sports was the thing that persuaded me to upgrade to Maxit TV package on an unsolicited marketing call. When I logged on to watch the cricket I discovered it had disappeared, at first thinking this was a technical issue I contacted customer service and after 3 hours on the WhatsApp the agent was still unable or unwilling to say that it had been part of the package and removed or explain why still shown in graphics on my account page as part of current service. All they could do was try and charge me an extra £18 to watch it!! I am still waiting for a response to the complaint I have submitted but suspect will be pointed to small print in T's & C's which I will have to accept. Still is around happy customer service and value for money so at least only need to wait til December to break all ties with VM and go elsewhere.Service outages on 150+ days in 14 months - is this normal?
Hi all, I am really hoping anyone can advise me what to do or has experienced similar issues (though I wouldn't wish this on anyone). I have had fibre with this utterly useless company since September 2023. I have experienced more service outages than I ever imagined to be possible in the last 14 months. Some days it doesn't work for a few minutes, other days its hours (1-14, the sky's the limit with them) and when it's especially bad it can them them days to fix this. Yes, DAYS. They keep sending their stupid update texts saying it is now fixed bla bla bla, but it obviously never is. At this point I believe it is an area issue that will not get solved anytime soon, if ever. I want to leave my contract, which ends end of March 2025 and have sent them a long complaint via email. Got a lovely AI response claiming the issue was fixed. Nope, it was not. Neither did they respond to my request to end this contract by the end of the year nor did they mention my request for compensation. I spoke to them on the chat today where all my questions were basically ignored. Getting hold of them on the phone is mission impossible. Has anyone had similar issues and can tell me how they went about it and what the outcome was? The thought of being with them for another 4 months is unbearable to me. Performing my job from home has become a real challenge and I don't get how they can get away with this. Thank you all in advance! Best, TedTotal loss of service for 8 weeks
Hello community, I feel like this is the last turn to take and I hope someone can help. case reference: C-2509241726 We haven’t had internet since our contract started 8 weeks ago. we have had 4 technicians visit, each one said they can’t help. we’ve spent 165 minutes on the phone to Virgin media help center over 15 different conversations. Countless e-mails backward and forward with the email resolutions team I expect close to 20. In the first days of the issue the problem was promised to be fixed on 18th September. now we are 8 weeks down the line and I am pulling my hair out. No one can give me a real answer of what the next steps are. we work from home and the data on our mobile phones keeps running out and only provides a poor connection. every call or email or WhatsApp with the Virgin media help team we have to start the story new, telling the person the situation and then they basically say oh just wait longer or oh I’ll send a technician, but none of these solutions are working, we have been so so so patient but I honestly don’t know how I can wait any longer. i need to know what is happening and when I will have my internet finally! One excuse we have heard is that the cables under the road / pavement have been cut, but our Neighbour 2 doors down has a Virgin media connection working fine. This topic has consumed my life for far too long with a repulsive customer service, this case has been handled disgracefully by any standards, let alone a reputable company. please someone, look into the case properly and help me find a solution.Existing customer deal - Disney plus hidden in the small print
Have been offered 1gig broadband for £3 extra a month on my current package via an email offer. When I click through to sign-up and review the contract summary, Disney has been miraculously added, but is not mentioned anywhere else. I don’t even know what it costs. How do I accept this deal without the ‘secret’ add on? Apologies for posting here but that was the recommendation of Virgin’s customer service department who clearly weren’t willing to help.What kind of deal could I hope to negotiate?
Long-term customer, over 20 years since before it was Virgin Media. Currently on a Big Volt Bundle incl. M500, VIrgin Phone and Virgin TV. Was £36.00 for 18 months, which expired this month. Now I'm paying £71.00. Can't find any details on what kind of contract deals are available to current customers, rather than new customer-only deals. What have people been able to negotiate in similar situations?
