    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

    @virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

    @virginmedia There isn’t internet down time the box has stopped working, they can’t get a new box out here till mid week, with a lot of people working from home you think you’d have next day delivery or something, bad enough we can’t have a engineer out to help

  • yiddo71 Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia Your missing the point my phone works now my complaint was about the fact it took 9 days to activate and Virgin changed the number

  • brettd76 Brettd 🇬🇧 eu free (@brettd76) reported

    @CityFibre when will you be live in Sheffield? Currently being held to ransom by @virginmedia and about to have to enter a new contract at stupid monthly rates because customer loyalty is non existent with them.

  • goodname110 Chris Adcock (@goodname110) reported

    @virginmedia Mobile. I just had an agent explain to me this is probably due to move from EE to Vodafone. I will monitor. But as I was with Vodafone and moved due to lack of signal here, we may have to part ways. Thank you for responding.

  • Grumpy_Paul Paul (@Grumpy_Paul) reported

    @virginmedia Everytime I call Virgin you try to sell me your booster (pods). There is nothing wrong with the speed. It is the intermittency of the router that is the problem - does that help?

  • caneton81 Stuart Stretton (@caneton81) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to get in contact for three days and waited for hours to get through only for the online chat to timeout or for the phone lines to cut out! Appalling!

  • madamemacca Madame Macca (@madamemacca) reported

    @VMO2News @virginmedia The only other way to cancel the contract is via letter, which is a purposefully antiquated way of doing it.

  • Ross_Edmo Ross Edmo (@Ross_Edmo) reported

    @virginmedia And 45 on the phone to be told that. We then rang back as instructed. A lady picked up couldn't help so put us onto a guy, we told him the issue, he told us we shouldn't be getting new boxes. He then confirmed all calls are recorded. He then came back with oh i see you should get

  • ChrisPo44928048 JustPokeNow (@ChrisPo44928048) reported

    @CBirl @virginmedia I actually managed to get through this morning and cancelled. Call at 8am on the dot. They still tried to keep me and offered at deal at less than I am paying now. So the question is, why the heck did you increase prices to begin with. Obviously in damage limitation mode.

  • Frooper11 Russell Warner (@Frooper11) reported

    Hi @virginmedia I've been part of a mind boggling WhatsApp conversation with your company since 4pm yesterday, all I want to do is cancel my service. Your online forum "helpers' are suggesting I write to you as I can't get through on the phone. This isn't particularly great CS

  • Parsonator Michael Parsons (@Parsonator) reported

    @virginmedia Honestly all I want to do is cancel my services, I can't believe it has to be this difficult

  • WeeJohnIrvine John Irvine (@WeeJohnIrvine) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, been trying for a week to speak to someone to cancel my contract. Holding for 40 minutes each day. How can I speak to someone?
