  • ann_ellison Kerrie-Ann Ellison (@ann_ellison) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Chatting to your customer service team, she blaming me for disconnecting the chat but it’s you lot

    @virginmedia Tried that many times. Not working within 3 days. Can you call ME instead to arrange? If not, cancelling service.

  • ann_ellison Kerrie-Ann Ellison (@ann_ellison) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia 30 day cancellation is nearly up, just waiting on the returns packaging to arrive. But don’t see why I have to pay £150 for a service I’ve not been able to use for a month

  • kkgorny1972 Kev (@kkgorny1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @NetflixUK is it just me or does @virginmedia keep canceling my netflix subscription, they have changed the payment system and its now **** but they are embarrassed to admit it, its pathetic. Please let me know

  • ann_ellison Kerrie-Ann Ellison (@ann_ellison) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia It’s taken 4hrs to get your incompetent team to cancel the package properly. Now there is just the matter of the Overdue bill and the final bill.

  • BertNashCha Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Poor. Very poor. 3 days trying, being on hold, being assured return calls, moving home team have to speak to Netflix team (don't even have it), then being told it's cancelled and being give packaging instructions. Ridiculous, wanted to stay with you.
