    @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

    Moved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

    @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

    Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dad got rushed to hospital still in and @O2 connection is still not working in my house or mums @virginmedia mobile same problem (according to there test it’s fine) well try using it here especially when a loved one is ill and you can’t even connect a phone call &it’s a main road

    @virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.

  • 67BLADE
    Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to an advisor called Gillian from Sheffield and she escalated my numerous complaints on Saturday. Promised a manager call crack but I got nothing . It’s getting to the stage that the best course of action would be to cancel the lot but that won’t get my landline back

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I transferred my mothers account into my name after she passed a few months ago, it all seemed to work but now when I try and login they want my fathers password..who passed away 8 years ago and refuse to let me in without it.. Their account system is awful and they don't care.

  • PhantasyWave
    PhantasyWave (@PhantasyWave) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Been with them before never again. Same goes for BT. I will never contact again these 2 companies. They use vendetta in their own customers. Virgin tried to get me in debt, BT got me in debt of £962 for an upgrade I didnt even had the chance to use one single time.

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia cancel your contract and get virgin media as a new customer in your wifes name, request install the day after your current contract ends....they will tell you you cant do it but i have been for 15 years

  • GrahamCompton
    🇬🇧 FI is awesome 😎 (@GrahamCompton) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Leave. Send back the equipment at their cost. Get your partner to order a new contract via a comparison site. Claim cashback. Been there, done that. Totally nuts customer service by Virgin.

  • NJWesthead
    NJW (@NJWesthead) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia 6 weeks after contract to be considered a new customer. I’ll be doing that in August. So I’ll have to send their hub back to them, for them to send me one back 6 weeks later. What’s the point?
