@virginmedia Basically we wanted to save money as we were paying too much so we spoke to you guys and we were offered the £99 package which was great but sadly the system was down so the lady said she would call us back in the week. Well that never happened and then a direct debit went

@RomperCrompton @virginmedia The thing is, the phone and broadband use the same physical cabling and network... it’s more a historic pricing model but based upon the shared system

@Virgin_Victoria @virginmedia Thank you. Virgin Boffin says no issues in area. I have carried out 3 x fully resets and all I am getting is flashing areos and horizontal lines.

@virginmedia No, as I explained, it appears to be no longer a problem. I am less concerned with a fault occurring; that happens. I am more irritated by a lack of notification of the change, no response to my call and your lack of acceptance of their being a problem.

Hey @virginmedia - I was charged £15 on July 19 for Virgin Media WiFi on the London Underground. But the pass isn't showing on my account. I'm not a Virgin customer, so go in circles on the menu when I call customer service. Please help!

@virginmedia I don’t understand how you can get away with 10%+ yearly bill increase with no service improvement. I’ve been with you for 15 years and enough is enough, I’m switching. No other company does this - I’m speaking to the communication ombudsman, it needs investigation

@virginmedia Of our account for the same amount as last month. We were told that we’d be paying £99 a month but more was taken. We have been trying to sort this problem out for a week now and no one is helping. We asked to speak to a manager and got told there wasnt any available

@virginmedia service is appalling. Engineer arranged last Friday for today. Didn’t turn up. Now told it had been cancelled and we were informed. Lies Lies Lies. Broadband is almost unusabale. Can’t wait for contract to end so we can get sky.

In a world that runs on the net if you are a @virginmedia customer you have to wait 4 days for an engineer to fix a modem, installed only in November 2018. IT’S NOT A JOKE!!! Thank you for letting me loose a day of work and 3 days worth of studying. #virginbroadband

(@RichardUnstead) reported
@virginmedia Thanks for replying, there is a better deal but as a loyal customer since the Telewest days it's not open to me. I'd be content with anything I'd consider fair, even if it were slightly more but £71 vs. £35.99 .... There must be a middle ground.

@virginmedia @btsport why can't I watch BTSport1 on my android device via the virgin tv go app? I am getting a rights restriction message. I pay for the service so should be able to watch all programmes irrespective of the device being used.

@virginmedia Yeh, I've booked an engineer. Seems the key is to call 3 times for the same issue.

@virginmedia They don’t do any checks. Your call centre staff is trained to get rid of customers so they don’t reach the managers or file a complaint. I’ve recorded them lying.

@virginmedia Broadband still at @ 2Mb/s instead of 500Mb/s since early Friday evening. Virgin cancelled the engineer appt for Monday stating known network issues. When will this be fixed? Not good enough.

@paullloyd1 @virginmedia I am in the exact same position, retain your customers through great service, don't hold them to ransom. Be bold, be different. Don't resort to these tactics please.
