    @virginmedia There are no faults in my area. The issue is likely to be with the router as the 2.4ghz works consistently on other devices.

    @virginmedia That's not very helpful, and also I am paying for a poor service and in no way getting any value for money. So disappointing.

    @virginmedia just tried to call again, they took all the information then say they will transfer to customer relations, line is disconnected. She is now on another call going through the same process (giving her security details) this time she’s asking to speak to supervisor…line gone dead

  • jonmunson
    Jon Munson (@jonmunson) reported

    @virginmedia And today I find out that existing customers on my same street get offered a better price than I do, with one person being offered the new customer price. So it’s actually more of a personal thing, you just don’t want me as a customer.

  • MrsLevein
    Sam Levein (@MrsLevein) reported

    Cancelled @virginmedia today because they wanted to double the price because the deal ran out. Double the price for the exact same service! So I'm now hunting out the best broadband deal. I love a project!

  • SheffieldYell
    John Armitage (@SheffieldYell) reported

    @virginmedia This is the problem, I spend too much time on hold to your business. Why should I have to call you again, when it is YOU that haven't delivered on what we contractually agreed??
