@virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

@virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.

@virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

@virginmedia what's the issue with answering a call? Line went dead, my mum can't receive incoming texts and is due an upgrade. Your customer service is terrible, God only knows what will happen when I call for TV

@virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

@virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

@virginmedia So frustrating. Been with you 6 months now. Called customer service they said they sorted the problem and they havent. still cannot sign into any online media despite resetting the password several times. Internet is shocking as well as customer service.

(@BenMason232) reported
@virginmedia @virginmedia Don't give me the small print T&Cs nonsense. Just explain to me why you feel it's acceptable to charge me £250 because YOU CANNOT PROVIDE ME YOUR SERVICE. If I was trying to cancel, fair enough. But I'm not. U don't offer the service where I'm moving.

@virginmedia @virginmedia I've had a look and a lot of people have reported similar issues. Please can ours now just be rectified and us compensated, or I will be forced to terminate the contact early.

@virginmedia 40 mins on the phone to find out I can either stay with rubbish #VirginMedia, and not get the service for which I pay or I can pay £240 to end my contract. #VirginMedia is rubbish

@virginmedia Hi. Could someone get in touch please. I'm having issues logging in to my virgin media account despite the fact that I know for 100% certain that the account name and password are correct. Thanks

Lady Dave
(@LadyDaveO) reported
@virginmedia Apparently the compensation is only applied with a total loss of service whereas mine is intermittent, turning on and off every few seconds. So while unusable for me, it provides #VirginMedia a great loop hole

@sebmatthews @virginmedia @SkySports Always had trouble cancelling services in the UK. Unless you give them 6 months notice and chase weekly. Not to say we haven't had our issues here too.

@virginmedia No. It’s useless. Our whole street is down, and we have all been reporting and phoning. Your website bears no resemblance to our scenario which includes not being able to work from home.

@virginmedia Yes we know that it is not showing any problems in the area - we have had those phone conversations over the last 3 days. However there are problems as all houses supplied by virgin do not have broadband. You need to send out engineers today!!!
