    @virginmedia I’ve spend another 90 minutes this morning trying to get through to you after being told last week I would receive a call back within a few hours and I’m still waiting. Have you got a number which I can get through on and cancel. Worst service I’ve ever received

    When you cancel a direct debit pending an overpayment query, an extortionate figure is taken by them, you get charged £7.50 for late payment, you are on hold for 45 minutes and then they say the direct debit wasn’t cancelled 👀NEVER CHOOSE VIRGIN @virginmedia @SCOAF_UK

  • FaWoTu Fa Wo Tu (@FaWoTu) reported

    @virginmedia Help, someone's cut my cable - wasn't buried - I've been told nobody can visit for a week. Doesn't appear to be a way of escalating the problem

  • diddydaddydoddy Ian (@diddydaddydoddy) reported

    @virginmedia John. So far; spent c3.5 hrs on the phone, told twice that ‘Technical’ and twice that Customer Service will call me & told once someone from Mobile will call me. Paying £6 more a month that I’ve not requested, still have broken V+ and no rebate as promised. Your advice now is?

  • willow_ophelia Willow Tonks (@willow_ophelia) reported

    @virginmedia is there an easier way to cancel my contract than sitting on hold for hours?!

  • face4allseasons Sam Mulkeirins (@face4allseasons) reported

    @virginmedia I tweeted you over a week ago, no reply. I submitted an official complaint over a week ago, was told I'd be contacted within 48 hours, still waiting to hear from you. I was on the phone for over four hours in the end with no resolution. Customer service?

  • mavtweetz Adam Maravia (@mavtweetz) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah the service/broadband is intermittent. It’s as if I’m paying you for half a service. On top of that your customer service team have no empathy at all! Awful form.

  • O11yP Olly (@O11yP) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, yes I called back again and waited 54 mins. I understand 'black friday' was the reason for the high volume of calls. My contracts ends Jan 1st. I would like to cancel as all the deals expire then and the BB service over last few months has been awful.

  • mavtweetz Adam Maravia (@mavtweetz) reported

    @virginmedia Terrible service, you reply to me a day later. You guys have the worst customer service team I can’t lie.

  • iqwertyuop DEE (@iqwertyuop) reported

    @virginmedia Shocking service. I dread ringing you

  • iamshaunhudson Shaun (@iamshaunhudson) reported

    @virginmedia It drops about 5 times a day. Yes I have checked the service page, yes I have tried the FAQs.

  • danimims00 dani (@danimims00) reported

    @virginmedia What company takes an order for a service 2 weeks in advance and then waits until 1 hour before their installation window closes to inform the customer they have no equipment????????????
