    @virginmedia trying to cancel my subscription for the last 2 hours. It takes forever to reach someone responsible. It is unethical to make this process so hard

    Dr. Amerah Ahmed (@Amerah_Ahmed) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia note...... it is not good customer service to disconnect the call simply because you are unable to answer some legitimate questions relating to your poor service. I made a move to you last month and have to say it is one of the worst decisions that I have made!

  • edward_baran
    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia I have raised many complaints. Just received an email in broken English that made no sense . And, weeks on, the faints still continue! @ofcom

  • silvergoatish
    The waving mechanical roadgoat™ (@silvergoatish) reported from Camden, England

    @virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.

  • edward_baran
    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia My issue is that this happens all the time . It’s about the seventh fault in as many days . The tv and broadband both constantly go down , service is totally unreliable . So even if you ‘fix’ it, it will probably only work for a few hours @ofcom

  • edward_baran
    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia There are your usual garbage explanations yes. Saying no fix for hours. Not good enough

    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @Amerah_Ahmed @virginmedia @richardbranson Absolutely it’s just extraordinary . I pay them 70 quid a month to be Spoken to like dirt by someone who has no knowledge of all the problems and can’t construct a sentence . The most appalling service I have ever experienced . The problems in sw5 have gone on for weeks @ofcom

    Alan Hodge (@hodgie_hd) reported from Kensington, England

    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    Once again virgin media down in central London SW5. No television and no broadband #virginmedia #virginmediadown @virginmedia

  • edward_baran
    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Nope but your call centre and engineers told me that a ‘laser part’ needs replacing in Earl’s Court square sw5. They also said 500 homes are affected. Can’t tell me when it will be fixed. Problem ongoing for 3 weeks @ofcom

  • Anthony_Lonres
    Anthony Payne (@Anthony_Lonres) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Your online status reports no faults but as I said in the thread, I have called your support centre at least 10 times & they confirm there is a fault which has been the case since the 2nd of March. I am assured, every time I call, that it will be fixed within 7 days. It never is

  • hdl_dl

    @virginmedia Still with the problem, no answer

  • hdl_dl
    helena (@hdl_dl) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, still with the problem. Broken and distorted image and audio

  • edward_baran
    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @RuthPetrie1 @virginmedia @Ofcom Thanks I don’t hold out much hope . Someone had informed me the issues are to do with them not upgrading the cabinets you see on the pavements outside. The older cabinets cannot Cope with high usage !!! @ofcom

  • craiginmotion
    craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia once again #epicfail no WiFi and after 20 mins on hold to speak to someone I’ve lost the will to live. What’s this **** hold music anyway? I want to cancel my service. You’re not the only game in town. See ya

  • Rashidfreed
    Rashid Iqbal ☔ (@Rashidfreed) reported from Kensington, England

    @Rhodri_H_Davies @virginmedia It's #virginontheridiculous that @virginmedia have had the same lame excuse for their 'temporary', nightmarish wait times on their 'helpline' for 12 months now Who else gets the dropped calls as soon as you mention a bad broadband connection? Were trying to #homeschool here!

  • haniehvidmar
    Hanieh Vidmar (@haniehvidmar) reported from Paddington, England

    @virginmedia I need to urgently speak to someone regarding an account! And the fact that you’ve non stop taken money out of the account and refuse to refund as well as cutting the service off when you’ve had payment

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.

    Tired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_ultra_View offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @robert_mackley @virginmedia Thanks for that. Need to do some serious thinking about whether to stay with @virginmedia at end of this contract as this experience has been very, very poor indeed. Communications have been awful (apart from one person that at least appeared to empathise). Been with them years

  • Gtmcdonald1996
    Glenn McDonald (@Gtmcdonald1996) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been in a live chat for nearly 2 hours with no joy on a resolution and I’ve also tried calling your number numerous times but can’t get through.

  • emmathompy
    Emma Thompson (@emmathompy) reported

    @virginmedia I'm trying so hard to log in and see what TV and broadband package deals you can offer me but I'm in a cycle of linking to my o2 account and then a transfer link coming through and doing nothing! How can I fix this?

  • MsLiberty1776US
    Charlotte Riggio (@MsLiberty1776US) reported

    @virginmedia you know what would be great? If your phone system worked so your agents could hear customers and not hang up on them saying there’s no response

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @RogerGreen2009 @virginmedia I'm definitely going to be reviewing my options at the end of my current @virginmedia contract as they've been dreadful in terms of communication and help when the chips are down(day SEVEN of outage)😢 Sadly, I've only just renewed my contract... Thanks for the suggestions👍

  • aidan_codtello
    Aidan Costello (@aidan_codtello) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia I've done a postcode check and it says intermittent problems. My daughter says if it doesn't improve she can go back to her flat as it isn't too far away. We are in London. We signed up for virgin party as they were to pay £50 incentive to use & my father for both of us signing

  • DavidGrant58131
    David Grant (@DavidGrant58131) reported

    Virgin media broadband down in Swords for 4 days so far ...no communication...no contact....@richardbranson ???

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @virginmedia Seems fair comment-they aren't sensible! Googled "how effective making complaints to @virginmedia is" and came up with some very negative feedback culminating in: "customer feedback AND regulatory data suggest their handling of complaints is often seen as inadequate" Oh dear🙁

  • Claireonj4
    Claire (@Claireonj4) reported
