Had a real problem with Virgin media. Was paying this month's bill when Virgin had a problem as with its auto payment service and the payment couldn't be processed. I then tried again via their website and the payment went through......

@virginmedia I need to speak to a manager who can help. They don't seem to want to. I have a contract phone, it won't charge, it's under guarantee, I'm paying you and you won't help.

@virginmedia My tariff is going up from £72ish to £108ish so I want to leave... Simple but trying to get them to do this is madness. Internet is slow and not reliable, I have been promised the earth and it has just got worst! @BBCWatchdog

@virginmedia It was a little more than short lasting pixelation! The channel kept dropping completely and during the main fight it felt like we were watching in slow motion.

@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

@virginmedia I've already done that. They've made promises but done nothing. I always have to chase you. Phone backs just don't happen. Nobody wants to help.

@virginmedia @CazzJ123 It's all righted itself now so must have been an issue at Virgin.

@virginmedia BTW @sky always were able to tell me what the issue was. Wish I’d never left.

(@kez_gallagher) reported
@virginmedia It’s really unhelpful for multiple homes in an area to be out but the status reports (app and phone line) telling us there’s no issue.

@virginmedia Anyone having problems with accessing emails due to virgin upgrades? Almost 24 hours and ringing customer services is hopeless as unable to help? Is this acceptable?

Jonathan Terry
(@JonathanTerry01) reported
@virginmedia I called you're appalling customer service team today and despite spending an hour on the phone 2 weeks ago, nothing was action. You have overcharged me £150 because your stupid staff can't do their job

(@NathanCurtis15) reported
@virginmedia Yes the courier hasn't even received the router from yourselves yet. Your customer service said there is a delay so it could be upwards to 4 days late

@virginmedia I can’t use that link because I can’t login to my Virgin media. I’ve not been able to since I joined. Have called you 6 times now about it and you’ve not bothered to call back or resolve the issue once.

@virginmedia I called up to explain and explain and nothing. I’ve put in complaints, been promised call backs and nothing. Ridiculously bad customer service. You can see I haven’t used any bandwidth and misled me completely and only want to b refunded and payments stopped until I want it live
