@virginmedia Hi we can’t get into the shows we have bought on the media store. New T&Cs page comes up and we can’t get rid. It looks a bit suspect? Can you help?

@virginmedia why is live chat taking absolutely ages to connect me to anyone? I’d like to cancel my service, but if I was joining as a new customer I’m put through immediately. Are you making it difficult to cancel on purpose?

@virginmedia Are you reading my tweets? It’s not a fault! You’ve run a 30 day test you are running far under the service I’m paying for, I was waiting for a call to discuss what VM are proposing or if I should leave!!!! @Ofcom

@virginmedia I’m still waiting since 15/12 for my boosters, and you’ve sent me a v6 box, for no reason. Spent another hour on hold, only to get cut off. Please arrange a callback to get these issues resolved. 07966594276 Thanks!

@virginmedia @chrisckmedia @virginmedia you'd be expecting a fix within an hour or two if Chris stopped sending you the news, which he and his team does every day. And you know they would get you something pretty quickly.

@virginmedia I renewed my contract with you in November, knowing I'll move in February and your agent told me this will be the most affordable option for me. Now I'm told I need to pay a £240 disconnection fee. Your support connects me from one dept. to another and back...

@virginmedia Hi, I need to leave Virgin media because my bill has gone up by over 50%. I can't do it on the phone because you're not answering and your website doesn't have an option to close my account. Your live online help isn't answering either. What should I do?

@virginmedia Hmmm. No the test was done on Sept I ten got a letter about 2 months later which confirmed my suspicions of a slow service after a new router and CMP plugs I’ve been trying to discuss what’s next since then. Need that callback! @Ofcom

@virginmedia That’s my point I’ve been trying to sort this out but not getting the response of callback to decide what to do you guys also need to compensate for the service speed paid for not received! Back no ones calling me back...@Ofcom

@virginmedia 4 hrs. And it's not even an escalation, it's me trying to bypass the checks I've been doing for over 18months on my line over and over and over. Why are there no supervisors on the floor to support the staff? Is that even allowed?!

@virginmedia absolute rubbish, I have contacted virgin numerous times regarding poor internet, basically internet dropping out to many times. Very poor. Unfortunately I have never been contacted back regarding my issues. Absolutely disgusting customer relations 😡

@virginmedia Status says no service until 3pm. I wouldn't know what my wired connection is as I have owned a hard wired device in years. I dont actually believe the speed promised is even available from Virgin in my area.
