@virginmedia you’re broadband service is a disgrace. Constant reoccurring issues. Ur not paid for a service to work half the time you’re paid for it work all the time. Your help service is also a joke. Ppl reading canned responses, never really understanding or offer any reason😡

@virginmedia That’s not the point, I don’t want credit. I want a reliable service. And this isn’t reliable. My 4G service on my phone is more reliable than my home broadband. That’s not good.

@virginmedia your telephone automated payment is beyond dreadful. Not recognising my new debit card. Been on hold to your woeful customer services for 26 minutes. And your hold music is terrible. #nothappy #badservice

@virginmedia There’s no service issue, the engineer had punctured the cabling with a cable tack. It stops the fibre optic cable from working. I removed it but not before having to sit on the phone for 30 minutes after me complaining the other day about your inept installation team

@virginmedia COM103473607 but as I said I have a deadlock letter.... I have no confidence due to the fact your company seems to neglect the real issue here! Telling my 82 yr old mother her dead husband ordered Sky Movies from the grave! A service neither of them are/were interested in

@Satoonerist @virginmedia Totally agree, I've just been pissed about trying to get through to cancellations, I refused technical help and and engineer and I'm going to take a chance that my neighbours are right and Talk Talk is decent these days.

@virginmedia Just rang again. On hold for 20 mins (again) to get hung up on after giving my name. How do I cancel if I am already out of contact. Unless somebody can ring me instead as I refuse to sit through that hold music a third time

@virginmedia I don’t have a landline or a Virgin phone, I don’t want to rack up a huge phonebill calling you to sort out an issue on your side. I’ve now performed a factory reset and still not working. So I’ve ran the broadband test from my Virgin Media page and it says the equipment is off.

@virginmedia Ah so now you’ve acknowledged there’s an issue in the area with a fix ETA of nearly 3am. So no broadband all evening. This happened last week too. This isn’t acceptable service levels.

@virginmedia I cannot believe you are putting the price up again and claiming it is ultra reliable when I've had nothing but an unpredictable signal since getting the hub. It's not worth £25 let alone £27.50

@virginmedia What’s the point in getting you on WhatsApp? I’ll still be text messaging someone who isn’t going to take responsibility or provide the service I’m being charged for. I’ll stay in here . @richardbranson @VirginMediaCabs

(@mr_gotgotneed) reported
I'm on my 2nd day of WhatsApp chat with @virginmedia and it's progressed no further than the identification process. This is after they failed to cancel my parent's broadband 2 years ago and have continued to charge her £41.75 per month, despite it not even being connected.

@virginmedia Hi, yes, I was told that this was being processed during my call to cancellations - but, I've received anxiously nothing to confirm this, either in email or anything within my account - I don't really want to go through some form argument down the line, hence I'm reaching out

@virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCabs Are you going to help or are you just there to try to stop people publicising your poor service?
