@NatalieeeLoweee @virginmedia I had this issue. Got home from work to watch charity shield #MCILIV after avoiding the score and it was unwatchable because of the sound issues for me so I gave up. Will just watch #motd tonight instead. #nothappy

@virginmedia Everyone was fine (eventually). The feedback is simple. If I can self serve setting up and managing my account I should be able to self serve cancel.

@virginmedia Media. I ditched the TV part of the bundle years ago, but am still currently paying £50.99 p/m for 150mb broadband and a phone we never use. Come September, when you increase it by another £3.50 it’ll have gone from £37 in Dec 16 to £54.49 - A ridiculous 47% INCREASE......

@virginmedia Media service. I waited 30 mins to speak to someone, after selecting an electronic option to cancel. "I'm not authorised to cancel". Now back on hold. Virgin has the worst customer service of any company I've interacted with. It's insane.

@virginmedia Thanks for your help with this, but can you please refrain from using foreign call centres; it is incredibly frustrating trying to explain to someone that you’re unhappy about your bill, who interprets this as a technical problem.......

@virginmedia can you please advise how I can easily cancel my service ASAP. It's (deliberately) impossible to contact your company by phone.

@virginmedia This has never been suggested before; you’ve been quite happy just to take the money and then hit me with an annual increase way above inflation. I’ve spoken to customer services on a couple of times in the last couple of months, and the offers have been quite frankly insulting.

@virginmedia Disgusted at the speed of my broadband I am receiving. Signal very very slow. Paying for M50 broadband. Feel I am paying over the odds for what I am getting. But I already know your reply. Everything ok our side. Also received that the price is going up #ripoff

@virginmedia I’m not after any account info though, so no need to go through security. Neither of my parents are very technical nor do I have access to the device showing the problem.

@virginmedia I’ve already spoken to someone on the phone who reset the network, but that didn’t work. I also tried re-starting everything and that also didn’t work, the box itself is very slow now also.

@virginmedia 1. Why the neighbour would not have the same issues when the ‘issue’ is your automated phone system is beyond my comprehension! 2. It is not a neighbours responsibility to resolve a phone issue for the bill payer. 3. Through an internal contact I now have an engineer visit bkd.

@virginmedia Worst customer service I've ever encountered. On multiple occasions over several years. Rudeness and lack of knowledge being the main issues, along with the usual very long hold times.

@virginmedia what was my TiVo box meant to be updating. I woke in the night to find it on and the screen saying it was updating software, don't switch off. I rang 151 to find out, but the automatic system said there was an issue and sent a restart pulse 1/2

@virginmedia Hello virgin media team. I’ve gave notice to end my contract as your services aren’t available at my new home. Our contract was up.I gave 30days notice & the date we moved out. You’re still billing me. I can’t get through on the phone or webchat. How do I fix this?

@virginmedia Rather not wait! I have held for three times on the number you have just given me for over an hour to be told they can’t help and they will raise a ticket. Then text the robot text number you gave me about 10 times a day. How do I escalate this. Has my data been compromised,

@virginmedia Yes and I was told it would be checked and never heard a thing back. I have had to purchase 2 WiFi boosters at £35 so the signal reaches my kids rooms. I live in a normal 3 bedroom house and the signal is appalling yet you’re putting my bill up??

@virginmedia Well. Restarting my company is a bit of an inconvenience indeed - but it's always the remuneration of effort to look forward to. Three months of, "Not being a Virgin Media Customer" has involved quite a lot more effort and stress than you'd really think!

@virginmedia I’m sorry, but you people are the worst. My partner has been on your online chat since 0840 this morning and whilst we respond immediately you guys take 10/15 mins to reply. We’ve taken serial numbers, checked cables and now we’ve been told you need a 15min tea break
