  • andburd
    Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?

  • Pablocollier
    Paul Collier (@Pablocollier) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Sorry but no. If you can't monitor your own service provision why should I ?

  • pmross
    Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Done that. Multiple times. And over the last 6 months. And when I was an ntl: customer. And CableTel before that. 27 years of 56k > 350Mb and now it’s totally doing my head in. Unable to work from home properly. Boss won’t be happy!

    CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have on multiple occasions, I have just been taking to engineer who running the 30 day test, while taking to him I had 3 lost connection issues. Your employees are trying say that I will have to pay to leave my contract, @Ofcom state, I can leave without penalty

  • pmross
    Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia Yep. Wired isn’t working either. I have no broadband, no WiFi, no service. Been like this since Saturday and intermittent since Jan/Feb.

  • pears0
    gonzo (@pears0) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia so, I've been trying for over 3 hours now to cancel my contract and absolutely no progress made so far!!! 3 hours. Surely this is a breach of ofcoms rules to make cancellation a reasonably quick and easy process!?

  • ce141974
    Caryn Sinclair (@ce141974) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is beyond bad!! When making a complaint because I have no internet your representative desires to shout over me! I’ve been waiting 3 days!! Shocking!!!

    @virginmedia Followed. procedure to switch broadband providers from virgin to Vodafone. Eng. Comes installs my service. Start paying Vodafone. 15 days later. Bill from virgin like nothing has changed Cal them... They say they didn't know I was moving. Say that I should not worry... They will fix it. 1.month after another full bill from virgin. 90.min on a call later they finaly agree they have ****** up and will return the money taken from me... In 45 DAYS!!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY infuriating that they can get away with this fuckery and abuse of their customers.

    @virginmedia Formal complaint: missed installs on 12 Apr and 25 Apr, 10+ days without broadband. Equipment installed but service still not activated due to system issues. Extra costs for data and dongle incurred. Please escalate, activate within 24 hours and confirm compensation.

    Sarah (@nameHarryPalmer) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia That's ludicrous! So an engineer couldn't be bothered to fix the "noise" and just cut you off?

  • 20Madders
    LouLouTwo.Oh (@20Madders) reported

    @virginmedia well done virgin media… you’ve been faffing about with a broadband and tv issue for the last week. Was supposed to be fixed by yesterday, now it says it’ll be the 7th. In the mean time we’ve got no broadband or tv in long intermittent blocks all day. 👎🏼
