Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia And yes I called to your outage number, apparently there is no known issue in the area. Even though last night at 11.30pm in the app the status check showed every service is down, even though they weren't down last night. This happens only during working hours.

CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England@MoneySavingExp How about they just deliver consistent service? I am leaving Virginmedia and they are making it hard, there rules state if I don’t get the speeds promised they I can leave without penalties, I’ve had 7 times where I have connection in the last 3 days! @virginmedia @richardbranson

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.

-
GoldyMcGoldface (@Goldy73) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia The fact you have even done it without telling anyone is a shocking customer service move,especially in this day and age where a lot of people are working from home. Absolutely disgusting service I don't care how long it will take, I need to know of you plan to take it down so
-

Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia I upgraded to the Ultimate Oomph package in Jan but still waiting for the order to be completed. I’ve contacted customer services on numerous times but no success, I’ve also raised a complaint. How do I actually get some help to complete the order?

Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!

-
SUFI (@SlientPixel) reported@InternetH0F I mean in the uk literally a week ago one of our virgin media got fined 28m for making hard to cancel
-
Holli (@HolliCarden) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK This is why I’m happy that Virgin Media are being fined millions of pounds. Their customer service is disgraceful.
-
Michelle Beckett (@MichelleBeckett) reported@virginmedia can you help with this to backdate the date of termination of my father’s broadband contract to the date of his death? As other similar service providers have done without having to be asked?
-
Mark vix (@Vikk3rs146) reported@jaluch @virginmedia I just left after 30 years of being a customer because of that attitude..it’s true ,they couldn’t give a **** .
-
SJL (@lambypies) reported@Stsantek @virginmedia Yeap, happened to me too. I asked on the phone if there was any evidence of this "Contract" The call handler said point blank it didn't matter. The really annoying thing is the actual broadband is really good. Fast, reliable and only the odd day down for maintenance.
-
HENRY BAKER (@rizzles066) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK i recently left virgin media they are not a good service provider when trying to end the contract, try getting help with family member or even a lawyer or cab which are very good
-
✦Kael✦ (@SulKalra) reported@JackHansenFIT @drunkandcoding @InternetH0F You are aware that many companies take multiple measures to make it hard to cancel a subscription right? For example in the uk, virgin media is under fire for multiple cases of them actively blocking customers from cancelling their broadband so they could switch to something else
-
Susan Fish 💙 (@Sushisu1) reported@virginmedia I have received through the post a new remote Virgin 360 control which I didn’t ask for or even want and since I received it my service has been terrible. Plus whereas Netflix was free with Virgin now I have to pay!! Money making to pay your fine? This is rubbish.
