    @virginmedia Or you could invite your customers to get in touch when out of contract or you could even tell us what deals are on offer to help us stay. I suspect you don't because you realise that inertia effects are high when it comes to changing broadband packages.

    Noumaan Abubakar (@_Noumaan_) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Is it possible to speak to someone over the phone as at the moment I'm not confident with the move being a smooth one. I'm promised call backs which never happen etc

    @grayomtb @plusnethelp These broadband providers should be made to repay people for such poor service... I have constant issues with @virginmedia ...

  • ChrisLonelyguy
    Christopher Hallick (@ChrisLonelyguy) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Come on @virginmedia I'm again being plagued by #fake #scam #fraud calls on landline. I'm not registered anywhere and on blocked lists. There's auto diallers i believe but operators should be cracking down on this.

    Ash Armstrong (@AshArmstrong9) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Seems OK now. It was Prime Video that was the problem. I think they couldn't handle all the football live streaming very well, and something had to give. Thanks 👍

    Really @virginmedia been on hold for 40mins for you to terminate the call due to “technical difficulties”! What surely you knew that when we called! Your customer care is shocking 😡

    @virginmedia my broadband has been going down frequently past few days. Tried restarting the WiFi router, still the same. Connection goes down for few mins and the comes back. It’s frustrating #virginmediadown #internetdow

  • Dog_in_a_hat
    Wayne™ (@Dog_in_a_hat) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had to call you in the past week 150 & you had to reset the router ... I shouldn’t need to do this! It’s your responsibility to ensure I have the service I pay (a lot) for!!!

    doffcapgov (@doffcapgov) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @sueperkins @virginmedia Glad you are publicizing their appalling customer comms whilst @virginmedia shamelessly provide a lousy service and increasing monthly subs by stealth

    @virginmedia Why is your internet down!!!

  • NimeshDave7
    Nimfresh.exe (@NimeshDave7) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia @vmbusiness why does my RTC internet connection disconnect every hour and connect 10 seconds later? It’s been happening for weeks, every hour it will go down for 10 seconds then reconnect??!?!? It’s problematic for my work!

  • Mum2fifteen
    Donna Ireland (@Mum2fifteen) reported from Stamford, England

    @virginmedia hi, could you advise the best method to speak to someone regards a request for return of kit after house move? Chat bot does not help, need to contact an agent thanks

    @MrGee27 @virginmedia I disagree. Having suffered their appalling service too many times over the last six months, I think the senior management should be marched naked through the streets of Basingstoke and pelted with rotten fruit. Every weekend for a year.

  • kwestfanclub
    ten street KINGO👽 (@kwestfanclub) reported

    @Stsantek @virginmedia Hello, i work in the industry, as bad as Virgin are, and they are bad, the responsibility is the EE salesmen who placed the order without knowing your termination charge, whenever signing up i check for things like this so things like this dont happen.

  • LostPigeonPost
    Flossie Smith (@LostPigeonPost) reported

    @Stsantek @virginmedia I can’t wait to leave Virgin but my husband can’t face the thought of having to ditch his Blue Yonder email address. It took me a week to switch mine and I will never say another good eord about Virgin again. It’s beyond hideous.

  • andyosb
    Andy (@andyosb) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia did exactly the same thing to me back in 2019! It was - and still is - the worst customer service experience of my life (and I'm now 65). It was just so glad to escape them eventually. They're utter scum. Do yourself a favour & don't go anywhere near this company.

  • jaluch
    Christine💙 (@jaluch) reported

    @virginmedia Received new remotes for your new service main remote works second one does not HELP.

  • unia_x
    unia (@unia_x) reported

    @Stsantek @virginmedia Hartlepool, Swindon, Reading - 3 places where I know for a fact a VM connection has packet loss. They’re selling a broken service and are getting away with it.

  • MY21_Oracle
    Mehrdad Yousefi (@MY21_Oracle) reported

    Ofcom has fined Virgin Media O2 £28mn for repeatedly preventing customers from cancelling contracts, after it found that the UK telecoms group had likely mishandled millions of customer calls.

  • ryanbrittain1
    Ryan Brittain (@ryanbrittain1) reported

    @virginmedia @ElJaffoGuzman I’ve had the same issue, my virgin media bill is twice as expensive as the next nearest price. Virgin not interested. I could cancel and rejoin it would be cheaper and cost them

  • rosstristram
    Ross Tristram (@rosstristram) reported

    @Ofcom @Ofcom trousered £28m for themselves. Just as bad as @virginmedia 2 peas in a pod

  • elainerust
    Dr Elaine Rust (@elainerust) reported

    @virginmedia despite your £28 million fine for preventing the switching process, I find you are doing this to me. So much for resolving the issues and reviewing your processes. You’ve cancelled my request TWICE. This has to stop. @Ofcom
