@virginmedia No problems found tonight. Hopefully last night was a one off. 1 outage in the first 3 weeks isn’t reassuring though

I’m stressed, I’m tired and about to have an operation. @virginmedia are pushing me over the edge with their appalling customer service and general money grabbing disgusting ways. I made my complaint over a week ago, now you’re just ***************.

@virginmedia Virgin generously said if I pay nearly £150 I can leave! I declined.. although i would have the £2 offered as compensation but I think I'll spend that on half a starbucks. I'll wait till my contract is up & im free. sky from what i can gather will be gaining shit loads of peeps!

@virginmedia Nope.. i was told as its an outage fault which only effects a few addresses in my area. It doesn't show on a general test. Cant get an answer from anyone at virgin as to when it will be sorted. Its becoming a joke now.

@virginmedia I asked Rashid to cancel for me he said he would delay. He didn't. I haven't installed or used and in no state due to a bereavement to sort this out. Even your no reply email service replied to me so I have a date. Don't think I have signed a DD agreement or the contract.

@virginmedia 40 mins waiting speak to someone re cancelling. You offer me £2 as compensation for having no tv for 8 days!!!! Seriously! Absolutely disgusting. A total sham of a company. Disgusting customer service.

@virginmedia It's pretty much a long story so would be better to talk. New customer on the pay nothing for 3 months deal. My dad was taken seriously ill and given a month to live. I asked to cancel in cooling off period. Emailed, tried to call. Spoke to Rashid the guy on my doorstep. Nothing.

@virginmedia I need to quit now this is taking the pi$$, I'm not interested in your fast speeds anymore, not going to phone your support and wait for an hour to be told you don't support Xbox or any console when that is what you should be about "BROADBAND PROVIDER" it's in the title...

@virginmedia Wired, wireless, modem, mode, ports open, dmz, upnp, open nat, every thing right, but the router he support said last night the router might be incompatible and that isn't a good sign.

@LozzaFox @virginmedia We have been with them since they known as NTL back in the day customer service was good now since it's been Virgin Media they dont seem to care. The just want your money. Customer service is very poor. There overseas call centres are shocking.

@virginmedia “Superhub” - what an absolute joke! How can I cancel your **** service without queuing on the phone for 8 hours?!

@virginmedia I cant get through to the team that's the issue. The last time I called I had to hang up after 37 minutes of waiting to get through. I've done all of the usual troubleshooting, resetting hub etc however the wifi coverage to an upstairs bedroom in a small house is horrific

@BenHurst @virginmedia @davidschneider There is a triage process. You could end up talking to multiple people/bots before you get your problem solved. It's a joke.

download test reports speed of 0.34mb on this supposed 50mb broadband. Kids can't work, parents can't work, Virgin media's only solution is to restart the router again and again.

@SkyHelpTeam This is £16 more expensive than Virgin Media who are offering more for their package. I don’t understand why I’m being pushed away from a company I’d love to stay with but who want to charge me a third more for exactly the same service they were providing before?
