Jim Palmer (@jimpalmer38) reported from Scunthorpe, England@virginmedia Very unhappy with you this morning. In the summer I agreed a 12 month contract for a fixed price.

Kingfayvoor 💜 (@kingfayvoor) reported@Morris_Monye And virgin media would even want to compensate you when they have network issues, Infact you will be informed ahead
-
Simone-Lee Deal (@StiffNips2) reported@JimMooreJourno CEO is too busy counting his £1 mil package to give a ****, and Burnham shows no interest in dealing with it. Amazing that it's a merry-go-round of useless bastards buggering up companies; he used to be at British Gas, equal only to Virgin Media for dissatisfied customers.

whitebear 🔜 VeXpo '26 (@whitebearvt) reported@DigBipper188 @LiveFastSimp @miaaowing In the EU I get 30GB included, and there’s international minutes in my plan anyways. Just data that’s the issue outside the EU. Also O2 in my area was garbage last time I tried it, was on a virgin media contract so experienced both before and after the VMO2 merger. Then again, haven’t touched it since 2022.

Mont (@mont88n) reported@wixinho @steppaCS @virginmedia Same here, impossible to deal with on phone. Never reply to emails. Can’t even quit

Investigation Findings The regulatory investigation covered calls made between January 1, 2022, and September 11, 2024. Ofcom found that MILLIONS of customer service interactions were mishandled to prevent or delay cancellations. Specific tactics included: • Deliberately dropping or hanging up calls when customers asked to cancel. Putting callers on hold for no reason to frustrate them Excessive and unnecessary call transfers between departments. Using a two-tier retention system where only specific agents were allowed to process final cancellations. THIS LOT ARE CONFIRMED CRUEL SCAMMERS
