@virginmedia Broadband issues since May 2018. Multiple calls to customer service with no permanent fix. Last time I called I was asked the same questions repeatedly then cut off. Want a new hub that works and a bill review as it’s gone from £65 to £79 since Sept 2018!

@virginmedia What would really help is a separate sales number to call and to speak with an agent straight away with no ‘system’ to navigate and who understands my disability and can help me to sign up if I want to :~}

@CapnKink @virginmedia They don’t even respond when you complain. I haven’t got the patience to keep phoning to get a temporary fix. Just gotta decide which service to switch to and they’re gone.

@virginmedia why can't I take advantage of the Full House Sports Bundle... So what if I'm a existing customer, you've got me by the ***** anyway with the broadband. May as well just cancel and go elsewhere

@virginmedia I don't think much will happen given virgin's track record but on the plus side you've given lots of material for my delegates on next Saturdays Customer Service module.

Made a complaint to @virginmedia 10 days ago via their online service with a 7 day anticipated response time and yet have heard nothing since the acknowledgement of my complaint. This basically sums up my experience over the past year of ineffective response to our issues.

@virginmedia Horrific service. On hold for hours, constantly having to ring back. Exams this week, WiFi barely working at a hundredth of the speed it’s meant to. Constantly saying there’s nothing they can do? Useless.

(@JudgeDewie) reported
@virginmedia I think you know my gripe is not with the price rise but the fact that new customers get a better deal than loyal customers. It’s a poor marketing ploy. May win you a few new customers but will lose you customers like me who have been with you for a decade.

@virginmedia Apparently our whole postcode is down due to someone in our postcode using some sort of equipment that is throwing the whole internet for our postcode. Until they find who it is we have no internet. This has been going on since December!

(@tecman247) reported
@virginmedia I don't have an issue with prices rising, I have an issue with the % rise which is way above RPI my case And I've never had an upgrade/extra service at no extra cost without having to chase and chase or threaten to leave despite being a Virginmedia customer for around 15 years.

@virginmedia The website said there was no problem in the area so your answer is not correct and doesn't make any sense @virginmedia

@virginmedia got to be honest I’m tempted in my 14 day cooling period to cancel and move to @SkyUK or @BTCare I have a box stuck on CS1010 and have been on hold about 4 hours in two days to Virgin and they literally have no clue how to sort it, all I get is we have sent signals

@virginmedia Just spent over an hour listening to s***e music on my phone trying to get through to speak with someone only to be cut off at 8pm. My problem is that I'm paying for 200mb Broadband and getting 7mb!! I've got 3 kids all trying to do school work. I need an engineer out.

(@NarryT2016) reported
@virginmedia @virginmedia just called to say that the £240 charge was disconnection charge of £60 x 4 times although I was never connected. The fact that they applied it 4 times is beyond belief. They have now reversed it. Had I not noticed I would have lost £240. Be careful with them.
