Reports on phone number 08004643242
2 monthsI just got a strange call where the person spoke with a mix of Indian and Swedish accent, and kept pausing oddly. At one point he said it was supposed to be a courtesy call, but I had already dealt with them earlier today, so I bluntly told him to get lost. I rang up Virgin Media afterwards, and they assured me the call wasn’t a scam. They also mentioned they've had other complaints like mine. They said someone should really have a word with that bloke about how he chats on the phone - it was pretty off putting.Virgin Media2 monthsYeah, I can say this is Virgin Media on the other end. They’re not the sharpest when it comes to help, but definitely not trying to scam anyone. Just a bit clueless, really.Virgin Media3 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be Virgin, but it was definitely a scam. Even tho I've already checked and my Virgin account got closed months ago, this person kept saying it was still active. Really sketchy behaviour.Virgin3 monthsI ignored this call at 7:11pm since I get loads of spam from unknown or even 0800 numbers. Later, I dialed the number back and it sounded like a legit O2 out-of-hours voicemail telling me to call them. I’ve called O2 a few times lately so maybe it was for real. But then again, it might have been a fake number. I’ll try calling them again tomorrow and let you know what happens.5 monthsSounds to me like it was a spoof call pretending to be Virgin.Virgin5 monthsSome bloke said he was from Virgin and wanted my last name. I told him if I was actually with Virgin, he’d already have that info. Then he just ended the call.Virgin5 monthsSomeone called me asking about Virgin Media, so I just ended the call straight away.Virgin Media7 monthsI got a call from a recorded message saying something like "Virgin Media, please stay on the line to talk to our team." After that, it went completely silent, which made me think it was a scam. So, I hung up straight away. They never tried calling back.Virgin Media7 monthsThere was this awkward pause of about five seconds before they finally started talking. The woman on the line sounded Indian and claimed to be from Virgin Media. She was pretty rude and kept pushing me to say YES, but I didn’t fall for it and just ended the call.Virgin Media7 monthsSomeone said they were from Virgin Media but got quite rude, so I just ended the call.Virgin Media8 monthsJust got a call from a Virgin Media bloke, sounded Asian, about 2 minutes ago. He said he wanted to check my engineer appointment for tomorrow was all set. I gotta say, I was a bit wary since earlier today I got three calls from Asian call centres that were definitely scams, haha. But this one seemed real enough. He only asked for my address and postcode to verify me and told me to hold on to the text message I got about the appointment. Seems legit.Virgin Media9 monthsGot a call from Virgin Media checking if I'm still alright for the engineer visit the next day. They called me twice from the same number. I missed the first ring but got a text from them later. They only wanted to make sure my postcode was right, didn’t ask for anything else personal since they already knew my name as the account holder.Virgin Media11 monthsDidn’t ask for their call, so I just hung up. Got them on block now.1 yearGot a strange call claiming to be from 02 but then got put through to Virgin Media. The person on the other end wasn’t very clear at all. Seems like it could be one of those dodgy scam calls, since they didn’t really explain why they were ringing me.Virgin Media1 yearIt seemed alright to me.1 yearI got this number after ringing Virgin Media using the contact listed on their website. Seems like it's for their installation crew. Pretty sure it’s legit, no worries there.Virgin Media1 yearJust a heads up, sometimes dodgy callers fake real company numbers. It's best to stay cautious and trust your gut when you get calls from unfamiliar numbers.1 yearDidn't get to pick up the phone, but I'm pretty sure it was Virgin about an engineer coming round 'cos I was waiting for that. They sent a text afterwards saying not to call them back and that they'll ring me again later.Virgin1 yearJust another junk call, nothing but spam.1 yearGot a call from Virgin Media about some maintenance planned for tomorrow - same info I already had, so looks like this one’s legit.Virgin Media1 yearGot a call from Virgin earlier, they were chatting about some appointment they’ve scheduled for me tomorrow. Quite surprised since I didn’t expect it!Virgin1 yearGot a call from Virgin Media O2 about setting up a broadband install, which I already arranged. They had my address, name, and when the tech would come. To check it was legit, I rang Virgin’s official customer service line and they said yeah, that call was genuine.Virgin Media O2Virgin1 yearGot a call to double check an appointment for my Virgin Media Broadband install from an engineer scheduled for next week. They went over what needs doing and told me to ring back if anything pops up. Sounds genuine to me, though the Indian accent might surprise a few folks 👍🏼Virgin Media Broadband1 yearI got a call from someone saying they were with Virgin. They already had my name and number, and started chatting about a "technician visit." It’s weird because a Virgin engineer had rung me just a few days ago about installing full fibre broadband, which I never asked for. Feels like they might be harassing me or something.Virgin2 yearsWhen you call Virgin or O2, it often takes a while before you get through to an operator, like you’re stuck waiting on the line. Quite annoying how they make you hang about before connecting you to someone who can actually help.VirginSubmit Your Own Report (0800 464 3242)
