@virginmedia And this is why I don’t bother calling you for the most part. The service desk where I work are in trouble if customers are on hold for 20 seconds. Virgin are a huge company and can’t afford a call centre where customers don’t have to wait 15 mins (so far) on hold.

@virginmedia 40 mins waiting speak to someone re cancelling. You offer me £2 as compensation for having no tv for 8 days!!!! Seriously! Absolutely disgusting. A total sham of a company. Disgusting customer service.

@virginmedia Internet gone again. Second time today. Bottom light goes white and starts flashing, then green and flashing. Then the arrows light up green and flash. I can’t get 24 hours out of this service. This isn’t what I pay for and it’s terrible service.

@virginmedia I’m disgusted I’ve been a customer for 15 years and more . You’ve put the price up by £20. The very unhelpful person on the phone offered me a £2 discount . Disgusting back to Sky .

@virginmedia Nope.. i was told as its an outage fault which only effects a few addresses in my area. It doesn't show on a general test. Cant get an answer from anyone at virgin as to when it will be sorted. Its becoming a joke now.

@virginmedia I’m not bothered now we have left . The guy who answered the phone couldn’t be less interested . Every thing he was saying was on a card . He was very un professional and didn’t understand English fully . So he can’t be bothered to help I can’t be bothered .

@virginmedia Virgin generously said if I pay nearly £150 I can leave! I declined.. although i would have the £2 offered as compensation but I think I'll spend that on half a starbucks. I'll wait till my contract is up & im free. sky from what i can gather will be gaining shit loads of peeps!

After 48+ hours I’m still without any phone service. Despite being in contact with customer support at @virginmedia for over 48 hours. Had to buy a temporary @EE SIM card in the end. Fed up and frustrated to say the least.

So that’s @virginmedia cancelled off and their poor effort at a service. I had more reliable service with dial-up! Now signed up with @SkyUK and hoping they can at least provide me internet that I can use for a day without it going off constantly.

@virginmedia You could at least have an option to call back customers rather than keeping them on hold. Again, this is really poor customer service.

@virginmedia I haven’t yet unfortunately we are still in contract with sky- but after their recent diabolical customer service, we will be in touch once our contract ends

@virginmedia I have called almost 7 times in one day and still no resolution to this problem! Had the engineer out who left the job half way as he had another job to go to! Sort your service out

Is it just me or is it outrageous @VirginMedia are charging a cancellation fee because we are moving to an area they dont cover so cant continue with their service? Surely this cannot be correct it is certainly unfair. Maybe @MartinSLewis would comment #outrageous #Disgraceful

@vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thank you. The connection was finally fixed at 1644. Next time, I will call this number & chase them! I think eight hours is too long to take to fix a broadband connection area fault on a weekday, when so many people are still having to work from home.

@virginmedia 92.42 mbps which isn’t good enough when I’m paying for 200mbps. No issues in area either.

@virginmedia But what about all the years we remained with you when out of contract? Would happily stay if you covered the area we are going to, if you can't provide service don't penalise me?
