    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

    @bling_pot (@bling_pot) reported

    @virginmedia Can you explain how you can even justify increasing your broadband service to over double for a single household who limits what they use WiFi for?!

    ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported

    @virginmedia You STILL haven't replied to my DM which I sent on FRIDAY LAST WEEK. What's wrong with you people. Any more of this ignoring me and I CANCEL MY DIRECT DEBIT and GO TO SKY. They know how to treat their customers and not like 💩 as is the case with you lot 😡

  • seanpaulguitar
    Sean Redmond (@seanpaulguitar) reported

    @virginmedia @Dominiho7 Just leave it they scrap them anyway. They ALL have vulnerable exploited intel chips in them that they never patched and keep refusing to admit

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia Why ? and I don't appreciate the laughing face as this is no joke. I complained about being charged for a TV package I never signed up for. Nothing happened. I leave Virgin but I have to chase you to return your quipment. Hopefully Friday will be the end of dealing with Virgin

  • OCP_84
    Owain (@OCP_84) reported

    @virginmedia @quidco @Top_CashBack ...which always inevitably routes the customer to cancellations after being offered an initial substandard rip off deal. You are treating your current members like dirt. You really have to review your retention initiatives, and put offers in place for EXISTING CUSTOMERS
