    @virginmedia You’ve sent me a link to explain how I can raise an official complaint. One option is to give you a call? Something I have now tried on 3 separate occasions. Did you not read the thread? #Virginmedia

    @virginmedia Could you tell me what department I need to speak to about set up issues after a house move, and what time they close please

    Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

  • JonoTobin
    Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    Spend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

    @virginmedia So you’re telling me that because 3 separate members of your staff have lied and not raised a complaint when I’ve asked, I now need to send you a letter? Are you joking? #VirginMedia

    @virginmedia so I’m trying to cancel my contract and I’m speaking to Soyinka Sheffield but their English is so bad I can hardly understand them. Apparently she is the only person that can deal with me. Thank god I’m leaving ( well I hope I am ) !!

    Jon Pitts (@briavelsjon) reported

    @mandychoccy @virginmedia Sounds potentially like a comprehensive set of fixes. Ideal solution is to have a tech onsite when you have the problem. Easier said than done, though.

    Tell me, @virginmedia, how many people do I need to speak to before you make me (a longstanding customer) feel as valued as a NEW customer!? Coming to the end of contract and doing the same merry dance thatbwe always do, trying to get a decent deal!

    Gadge (@gadgetweetin) reported

    @virginmedia last month I called up to specifically cancel my TV/BB/Phone contract which ends on 5th May, before the price triples. I started a new BB only contact. This morning I am infuriated to see my bundle has not been cancelled at all & I have been charged for it😡😡
