    Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia A laughable statement in all honesty you're known for terrible service, demonstrated by the line "Package changes". Who said package changes? I have a TV package, I signed up for, have a contract for and have been using since June. It's disappeared your end, I have the docs.

    Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Your company is awful. I’ve called today waited 10min to the worst hold music only to be cut off. Call back to be told your closed now then state you are open between 9-6. Why are you deliberately obstructive?

  • carolgladwin
    Carol Gladwin (@carolgladwin) reported from Nailsea, England

    @virginmedia Had real problems with the service web page.. took an age to load and then chucked me back a page! Our service is back now.

  • SATempest
    Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @OldSparky6 @virginmedia I’m never going with them again. Genuinely don’t know how they are still a company that is allowed to operate when the customer service is this bad!

    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I do not want to be with you any more because you are doing my head in!!!! You have turned from being a very good company with good service to being the most disgusting people I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with!!!

  • MaartenSleeckx
    MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Screw you. Only me dying bothers anyone, literally anyone, it's always impossible to help me until people understand that I will kill myself. You're no better than them. See you in 2 weeks or not "AB".

  • NobbyD27
    Rob Downer (@NobbyD27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia I’m on virgin and it’s not that great Sye, I was going to sky before I renewed but had the same problem as you because I’d of had to wait months for BT to install a cable so just stuck to the devil I know in the end

  • MsWhippet1
    Trudi Foster (@MsWhippet1) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.

  • BackOnTrack__

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Call them and threaten to leave. The Retention/Sales Team will cut you a deal. But don’t get sucked into taking the VM movie bundle - the movies they offer are crap.

  • union4me
    End Neoliberalism before it ends us! (@union4me) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Sorry for your loss & I’m not surprised to see Virgin Media are still an awful company to do business with 25 years after I left them due to their terrible customer service. They deserve to be out of business by now…

  • Kaisah16
    Dave (@Kaisah16) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Cancel. Call retentions a week later. Dont go via live chat. I was offered £2 a month more than I was offered in my account (£34) by Mohammed on live chat., after an arduous conversation. A nice chap from Scotland over the phone gave me it for £28 a month. Done in 2 minutes.

    bryan hawksworth (@HawksworthB) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Becoming common throughout... About a year ago Sky did exactly the same to me, Loyal Gold, Platinum, Diamond (All that S**t) member for over 35yrs.. Price increase from around £100 to £153 in about 3mths.. Plus reduced service.. It's all a load of Bulls**t greed.
