@mouthwaite @EE Virgin In particular are absolutely awful I’ve been paying full whack for fast BB yet it’s off more than it’s on so infuriating especially when you’re attempting to work from home! Absolutely poor service all round from Virgin media

@virginmedia @Kabatan7 @CISASUK Cheaper to compensate the few that can be bothered to take the complaint process all the way than to provide a service where loyal customers don't feel taken for granted and ignored. 2/2

@virginmedia checked this and currently it says no issues,there clearly is a issue as this is not an isolated incident and is affecting others closeby. Unless you can actually do anything that may solve or attempt to solve the issue dont bother replying because your just giving me lip service

@virginmedia after 15 years loyal custom I decide to cancel my contract because I am moving home and you charge me £50 in cancellation charges. Classy. I won’t be using you again.

@virginmedia Previous appointment had to be cancelled due to work commitments. Unsure what they would have done at the property anyway when it looks like an issue with the service to my property and others. Can’t you check Wa74rf postcode service supply?

@virginmedia @Kabatan7 Oh bollocks. You gave me the same "busier than normal" line in January. Hopelessly understaffed "customer service" for all of the last 10 years. That's why you didn't remotely challenge my case with @CISASUK, just paid compensation. 1/2

Not Important
(@cberight) reported
@virginmedia 1.Your status checker is false, incorrect and not fit for purpose. 2.Constant drop outs and slow internet connection one third of minimum guaranteed speed for 5 years. 3.Dozen or so engineer call out 4. You charge 2.5x as much as the nearest competitor 5.Left you 2 years ago

@virginmedia There is no fault in my area. I have been observing last 3-4 days and speed was never more than 45 mb.

@virginmedia Ok intermittent problems in area. This amazingly was the answer last time I had this issue. After a month or so of problems we have the same issues as before. The same answers or lack of them until someone is sent out.

@virginmedia Seems odd that the O2 website shows the service interruption but the Virgin one has been saying everything's ok for the last few hours! I thought that you're one company now!

@virginmedia after cancelling yesterday (after attempting a 30% mid contract price hike) I've been getting calls from you, presumably to try and retain me. My number is registered with TPS and I opted out of marketing, it's not legitimate interest so please, please **** off!
