Well since complaining on here about @virginmedia and their terrible phone calls last week I’ve had 5 calls in the last three days all trying to sell me the same upgrade. Absolutely this close (fingers mms apart) from cancelling with them completely. FFS sort it out!

@virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

@virginmedia You’s really do make it almost impossible to cancel. I’ve called 5 times over 3 days. Either don’t get transferred or get cut off. Looks like I’ll try by writing a letter….

@virginmedia Hi, I’ve tried to call 5 times to cancel services without success. I’m emigrating in January and I’ve no idea how else to try and contact you. Could someone please DM me so I can pass on phone number to receive a call ?

@virginmedia All on screen instructions followed, waited til I finished work today to check and it still doesn't get past 25% on the "searching for channels" page... Just taken the direct debit for a service which has been broken since 2.12.21...

@virginmedia 17 days with no TV service, finally resumed today after another manual restarts at this end. Any chance of a refund of half of this month? That's pretty dire.

@virginmedia It's a know problem with Virgin media and all everyone on there says is VM know about it but don't fix it, whats the point of me posting about it if there's already involved dialogue on there?

@virginmedia So why say we only have 9 days before we get charged? Especially when the courier service you use can take 10 days?

@virginmedia @T2Mardybum I wouldn’t use @virginmedia, keep sky tv if you can and opt for another broadband provider. Had problems the last few weeks. Three calls this week, no help. ‘We think it’s a network issue’. Still not fixed.

@virginmedia can someone please explain why our phone service is not working? We have come home to find the line sounding open like there is someone there? We cant dial out nor recieve calls? Your website states no known fault & i have tried another phone & still nothing.

@virginmedia After a week of calling I found out today it's a "signal noise issue" and there's engineers booked to look into it. My connections unstable and speeds are fluctuating constantly.
