@virginmedia It has been over a week trying to contact you and it’s impossible. The contract needs to end on 04/03/21. Your service makes things 10x harder than any other provider.

@virginmedia @Steven_Smith89 I’ve tried reaching out via the telephone number provided on your website, however despite numerous attempts I have failed to speak to anyone & a fault at your end meant that the line went dead yesterday as I got through... why do you make this so difficult? PLEASE HELP 🙏

@katiexmiddleton @virginmedia VM is big in my area for internet but the last house I was in could only have TalkTalk. When I moved, I just transferred my address over instead of moving across to VM. The trouble you’ve, and everybody else it seems, had makes me glad I did! I’ve not had an issue with TT once!

Have been forced upstairs to watch the match in the PS4. WiFi is usually crap up here. But, no, it's working perfectly so I'm forced to watch #NUFC. Cheers @virginmedia, why can't you do this when I'm trying to work?!

@virginmedia Your team still do not answer the phone. Constantly on hold and then they hung up on my partner yesterday when she got through. The box will be left outside the address for you to collect because we have been trying to cancel for a week now and it is a joke. #poorcustomerservice

(@rob_b103) reported
@virginmedia upgraded to tv360 and the netflix app is rubbish. Signed out every couple of days. Wouldn't be so bad if the mobile app let you actually type it in, but no, that's terrible, so no surprise, it doesn't. Any suggestions?

@MoneySavingExp I tried to haggle as @virginmedia was increasing my package by 33%. They were not interested or very helpful. Customer service shocking!

@virginmedia I misspelt my surname and it came back as no issues reported. I then typed in my surname properly and it came back with issues with broadband and TV services

(@BenjiCraske) reported
@virginmedia you are charging me £74 a month (and soon over £90 a month) for broadband. I can get double the broadband speed with BT for only £30.99 I want to cancel and move and have been trying for 3+ days but it's impossible. At this point you're just stealing my money.

@virginmedia We are in central London (Islington). Your network failed 0300 Weds 22 Feb. Since then your service page say 'problem in your area'. Any clue when you are going to fix it?? How can you be so bad in central London? Any update on when you will fix? #AnyoneButVirgin

@virginmedia You are joking right? Why don’t you try giving that number a call or testing the online service. It is literally impossible to get through.

@virginmedia I'm free between 10-2. I want an investigation why the service has been inconsistent, incorrect, and so poor. Call handlers do not have the time or resources to step away from their headsets to look into this. I'm just fed up of the lack of ownership, too focused on quick calls.
