@virginmedia I’ve had issues during my 12month contract & I still rang up to renew. I was then told I wasn’t entitled to any new customer deals & I’d have to pay a £1 more a month for your budget service compared to what a new customer would pay for your top package.

@virginmedia @Ofcom I now have a recording of the last advisor who I spoken to... terrible terrible service and I will not ever return to @virginmedia. What a waste after 20 years of being with you. What a shame, I will send the recording to @ofcom and cancel the direct debit 👍🏻

ITV is down on Virgin Media in Liverpool. This means Gardeners’ World is going to get ratings akin to City of Death Part 4.

@stevehhh Virgin media is accessible, the problem has been reliability. A number of residents on those roads listed have had severe issues with the service & from experience BT Broadband is the more reliable. For example, in Eccleston Park residents now have access to Virgin & BT... [cont]

2nd attempt to cancel my account and @virginmedia hang up again. I requested to raise a complaint and they hang up! @Ofcom will be contacted. (Seen as you’re not allowing a consumer to raise a complaint)

@virginmedia Any deal that a new customer can get would be fine :) I don’t think it’s fair a customer that’s been with you for 10 years who already has all the equipment needed should pay more for less

@virginmedia disgusted that as a valued customer for over 15 years, I’m moving property, wanting to move my services to my new address but because it is above a business you will not install so you are charging me for closing my account which I do not want to do 😡

@MattTRFC @Stemac2010 @virginmedia Yes Matt, I was shocked too I had no choice but to hand my 30days notice in, I’ve been with them since 2009 no way I’m paying £1 more a month for 100mb compared to what a new customer would pay for 300mb!

@stevehhh so if there are issues with Virgin Media they can easily switch to BT. If BT High Speed Fibre Optic broadband can be secured sooner, rather than later, those residents who are experiencing issues with Virgin Media can switch/be able to access the High Speed Fibre Optic service.

@virginmedia I’ve spoken to multiple people at Virgin who won’t help! I’ve requested my data in line with GDPR legislation, raised complaints which have had no resolution but I’m told are resolved…unfortunately I do not have enough characters in the tweet to detail the rest. Who can help?

@virginmedia We have had to cancel our contract because you don’t cover the housing estate we are moving to, for that privilege we are being charged £250. You also want the box back so a courier has been arranged to collect it today, the box is still here. How to turn once
