Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia It about moving house. As Virgin is unavailable at the new residence and the move is only temporary I was told in two separate calls that I could ‘freeze’ my account and now it’s come to it it seems that I have to keep paying whilst not receiving any service or buy myself out!
-

I an@self-employed and the one thing I rely on is my internet connection.
-
Rob McEwan (@robmcewan1966) reported from Finchampstead, England@virginmedia Truly astounding. I have spent hours trying to get virgin to actually carry out promises made and we’re still not there. I’ll swear the customer services reps I speak to are under so much pressure to move on to the next call they make it up as they go.
-
CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England@virginmedia No resolution has been offered by @virginmedia hence I have no cancelled my contract.

faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Woolhampton, England@virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?
-
Paul Collier (@Pablocollier) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Patchy. And the weekends enquiry regarding possibly upgrading... Non existent service.

Cameron🏴 (@CRJG_) reported from Bracknell, EnglandHuge congrats to @virginmedia for having a web chat service that is so bad that I joined the chat to upgrade my broadband, but after waiting for an eternity for replies I’m pretty much ready to just close my account
-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia And there you have the extent of VM customer care folks!
-
Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, EnglandIf anyone is interested in how much @virginmedia are overcharging for their dreadful service, I’ve just been offered a price match on cancellation to move to a different supplier. £27.50/month for a service for which they originally increased price to £105/month

𝕷𝖞𝖓𝖓𝖎𝖊 🏴 🇬🇧 (@Haxter000) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I was the same, am I getting a refund for no service 🤔 I doubt it...
-
Ian Lythgoe (@IanLythgoe4) reportedAnyone's Virgin TV STILL not working after 2 days bet we dont get refunded so im paying £140 a month for a **** service @virginmedia
-
Anne Davis (@IHTP67) reported@virginmedia Yes they have checked it and I have. As others have said when using it, it keeps showing "account not recognised". Finally they have an engineer coming out tomorrow. The lack of any substantive customer updates shows no regard for customers, take the money and done.
