bob cain (@bobcainffc1971) reportedVery angry this morning after receiving a call allegedly from @virginmedia threatening to switch off my cable TV.

Pavlova (@uk_pav) reported@virginmedia 18 months loyal, 1 Gig, zero issues. Renewal offer: £33 for 125 Mbps (250 Volt) – worse than new deals. Customer loyalty clearly means nothing.

David Brierley 🍺 🏌️♂️ (@davidlbrierley) reported@virginmedia I have to switch the subtitles on again if I change the channel ? These are the main concerns regarding the 'upgrade' which unfortunately I am stuck with Surely if you have the technology to upgrade you will have the technology to achieve a down grade
-
Marko Polo (@MarkoPoloG1889) reported@virginmedia Sort your broadband out for **** sake you charge a lot of money for uour services yet provide a sub standard product it is a disgrace get it sorted
-
Cambridgewater.x (@cam_bridgewater) reported@vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness . Just "upgraded" to Voom 1 gig from 500. Speed slower than previously. Called technical .. they did some fault clearing and told me to reboot router, now I have no internet at all. Technical can't help reverse the error as they don't have full access .. unbelievable. Worst service ever. How can a technician make things worse and then tell me an engineer will be with me Monday ..
