Phoned @virginmedia to see what they can do about a payment holiday since we are forced to remain closed for the foreseeable and obviously not using any of our broadband services. They offered a discount of half a months bill. Wow. The worst company we have spoken to so far 😰

@RiotAngeI Ye virgin media’s been a ***** the last few days 🙈 they’ve released a statement saying that VM customers are using the internet more often than normal with everyone being home due to the lockdown that it’s having problems keeping up to speed, so not much they can do really 👎🏻🤣

@Annabanana8008 @virginmedia @O2 Good luck to you and don't take any sh*t, you should be fully compensated for the absolute inconvenience. We had a little problem with our provider and they where excellent, understood the issue and before we asked they compensated us.

@virginmedia I have done everything you have asked me to do regarding my security issue. I have responded to your texts as requested. But you never respond as you say you will. Meanwhile, more letters and texts arrive. It is futile.

@virginmedia @WeAreOpenreach @cardiffcouncil @LornaLwyl @Keep_Wales_Tidy I believe this particular one is openreach, just highlighting this is an issue with both companies. One volunteer has previously written to virgin media posting spent wiring with the letters, but this issue it seems is not being addressed adequately across the whole of the UK

@virginmedia highly unprofessional service you giving and fake promises just to trap new customer. I was assured for the service to start from 10th Oct. When I sign the deal after a week you reschedule my activation from 10th Oct to 2nd Nov. It’s joke you guys making .

@virginmedia Yes they said they would send someone to fix it today, I’ve had day off , when he got here he didn’t know what it was about!! I’ve complained so many times, he took some pictures said sorry and will tell his manager and send some ground workers out but it won’t be today !

@virginmedia Credit where credit is due. Today's set of outages is the first where you've acknowledged there is an issue before I've reported it and had to wait up to 24 hours. That's a marked improvement. There's even an ETA to fix which is the same day! This is a new experience

Virgin Media is like the roach motel - you can check in, but can never check out.
