Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, WalesSpend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

🧑💻 Michał in CS (@michalincs) reported from Swansea, WalesI cancelled @virginmedia broadband as the price kept increasing, the service wasn't. They offered 75% more speed for 40% less as I was such a "loyal customers for years". Effectively, they admitted they were overcharging me for years hoping that will make me stay! No thank you.
-
Richard Hedges (@hedges1975) reported from Gorseinon, Wales@virginmedia would it be too much trouble for someone to fix my landline issue, I can't receive incoming calls, yet your call centre agents tell me there going to ring me back on my home line and then cut me off!!! Can't ring me back if I can't receive incoming calls!!!!!
-

Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Leon Spight (@leonspight) reported@Benleo Slim consolation however I’ve been a VirginMedia customer for 20+ years and other than a blip back in 2019 due to no fault of VM the service has been fantastic. But this isn’t good enough, come on @virginmedia do better
-
David (@blueboy2710) reported@mark_wootten Try Virgin Media, just as bad if not worse
-
UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported@Benleo I have worked in telecoms customer service so can vouch for Virgin Media being (in my view) the worst in the industry. They billed me twice for a single month & made me pay for equipment I'd already returned. I was overjoyed to cancel.
-
Joe Alderson (@JoeAlderson1982) reported@B25Owl @jomickane @Benleo I've never had this and been with Virgin Media on and off for years. I have had a faulty router from them before though.
-
Frantruth 🏴 🇬🇧 (@frantruth) reported@Benleo Trouble is, Virgin Media isn't British owned. Regardless, it should be written into law that if you provide telecommunications to British customers, the call centre serving sales and customer service must be based in Britain.
-
F Smith (@fsmith82) reported@virginmedia no internet as box is out of date (family member had same issue a few weeks ago) & engineer can’t come until Monday. Why aren’t you contacting customers to upgrade BEFORE we loose a service we pay for???????
-
Geoff Jones (@geoffjones7) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I was a service engineer for many years for Virgin (formally Telewest). You most certainly do not have to renew a contract to get a cable fixed. Also the Indian call centre has been a long-standing issue for their customers. Very poor service
-
Tom Sharpe 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇮🇱🤷🏼♂️🖕🤬 (@PuzzlerSharpe) reported@LouiseMensch @virginmedia @Benleo They’ve worked brilliantly for me for 20 years. Enormous companies have very different user experiences at the margins. I’m sorry to hear about Ben’s and hope that they care enough about service delivery to fix it before it damages their brand.
-
jamie (@JMRGBY_) reported@j0nfuzz @virginmedia Brsk knocked on the door the other month to say they now had service so we’ll likely go with them.

ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported@virginmedia Could you give me a number to call to cancel my TV services please.
