After months of our Internet speeds slowing dramatically between 6pm to 9pm, we tried to get in contact Virgin Media. After several attempts using its online chat service, we spoke to someone who then turned off our Internet. We then had to phone and wait an hour to speak to someone to resolve the issue. The advisor we spoke to had the tenacity to suggest we had turned off our modem. No apology when she discovered her colleague had. Nothing.
After that we decided not to keep Virgin Media when we moved home. You need to give Virgin Media 30 days notice, which we did.
Only Virgin Media decided to turn it off three weeks early, making us even more stressed while dealing with the sale of our house.
Ever time we phoned Virgin Media, we were passed around, speaking to six people on the same call. Each had to complete security and then ask why we were calling. It is awful customer service designed to infuriate or wear customers down.
When we finally spoke to a manager, he said it would take 3 days to get our Internet back on. He would not give an explanation for this timescale. He offered us compensation of £8 (which when you work from home is just insulting). He was like talking to a robot reading from a script. When we said we still were not happy, he refused to send our Deadlock letter so we could go to CISAS (their alternative dispute resolution service).
It's been three days. Our Internet is still not back on.
Do yourself a favor. Do not go with Virgin Media.
