@virginmedia We asked at the time of there was any money outstanding and we were told no. We were never told it takes 30 days to cancel. Again poor service from yourselves. I don't have the complaint number no as your staff keep hanging up

@virginmedia #virginmediasaga on hold to yourselves again. #youneednewholdmusic. Although I do find it ironic that you play a song with the lyrics 'I'm a sucker for you. The only suckers are the customers like me that can't seem to get issues resolved! #virginmedia #thieves

So your staff forgot to cancel my service properly and then conveniently raised two new bills rather than giving us the 70 pound you owe us. 2 X managers and not a clue between any of them #virginmedia #thieves #makethecustomerpayforyourmistakea

@virginmedia Cancelled the account on 28th or 29th March. Was told by one of your staff members that the service would be cancelled immediately and that #virginmedia owed us just over £70. She also cancelled the direct debit, agreed to send a cheque for the balance to an alternative address

@virginmedia can you help me with a broadband technical issue. I have 200Mb, power cycle the router daily and still by the end of the day end up with super slow speeds. Less than 1Mb tonight. Thanks.

@virginmedia Hey its been like this for a while. I have the power socket scheduled to restart every night, but it isn't helping. Ive also reset to factory settings numerous times as well as try different wireless channels. WiFi is only part of the problem though as the issue exists on cable

@Ellwebb32 @Shelly_V_67 @virginmedia yeah they’re ***** for it, they don’t care unless you do the hard work for them, that deal you have is £20 more than the new customer deal so that’s decent normally you get shafted when a existing customer

@virginmedia There is currently an engineer working to fix the problem. But it’s still the fact that I have to phone yourselves so frequently (since the first day I got this broadband) for such bad, temperamental, internet service - it’s shocking really!

@virginmedia Just as I said. I've spent about 10 hours trying to sort issues out recently. Then they let you down. By the way, did you know that there is another fake VM twitter account virginuemedia I've reported them. They are replying to anyone who posts on your page

@virginmedia I did that already a few days ago via tech support and also selected different networks none of which made any difference.
