@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 Does anyone from your customer care actually ring you back? My newly installed so called fast WiFi has not worked correctly since install… Terrible product….

@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 They advised, reset, changing from 2.4 to 5. Then back again. Changing the settings on the account. Done this multiple times. Customer service hung up on me then I rang back again and was told I hung up on them. Awaiting a supervisor call. It’s never worked since installation

@OffMyNoodles @virginmedia Many years ago, the way @virginmedia treated me, I vowed never to have anything to do with them from that day. Never have done, never will do.

@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 I would like to leave. Charges have increased and service is woefully inadequate compared to cost. Web site says to ring. I have rung several times - put on hold for almost an hour, then I get cut off. Every time.

@virginmedia Okay, hopefully my phone will arrive before payment is due. Thanks for your help

Dave Cookson
(@DaveCooksonDLZ) reported
@virginmedia wish to discuss cancelling my account due to poor service for the amount paid, certainly not willing to pay even more. After an hour no one responded to live chat yesterday and I've been on hold for over 30 mins today, for £54.50 per month I expect much better

@virginmedia I have sent text messages to the number you provided on here, and I last spoke to several customer representatives on 26th January, then asked to speak to a manager, was put on hold for 50 minutes, then you cut me off/the line went dead. So, nothing has been resolved.

@discounts_mod @virginmedia Why is it only introductory offers available with the Defence Discount Service? I don’t think this is exceptable !

@virginmedia Not recently. The only offer I have been given is pay more £ for more MBs. Problem is we are already paying a lot and we only average about 80% of the expected download speed anyway.
