@virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

@virginmedia Wanted to thank the lady that helped me today. The call ended and it was not me, and I really wanted to thank her. Hopefully you will pass it on, she hung on to the bitter death to help.

@virginmedia Yes I did and Tuesdays fault was shown and yesterday's wasn't so how about you provide the service I pay for. If this continues I will begin getting quotes from other service providers as I am fed up of dealing with bots and spammers claiming to be from you.

@virginmedia John, please check my file. I’ve called several times, to be told somebody will contact you regarding your complaint. I ask to speak to a manger I’m told, none available. Appreciate this is not your fault buts it’s an utter **** show. I’ll let @Ofcom take the lead from here.

@virginmedia you know when a customer makes a complaint (twice) and you say that the customer will receive a phone call within 24-48hrs. Is this true or do you just make it up as you go along? Thanks.

@virginmedia Well do you not think if I'm only getting a service for 80% of the time, I should only be paying 80% of the bill?

So @virginmedia is increasing their prices by £8.50 pm. Wouldn't mind so much if they had decent service, eifi that doesn't cut out when i go upstairs, Sky Atlantic etc. Would go with @SkyUK but their wifi doesn't like bloody copper pipes.

@virginmedia please sort your service out... I have now been on the phone to you for almost an hour. The first person hung up on me, the second was rude and useless. All for £0.01 which I don't owe. No wonder the landlords are removing virgin from all of the apartments

Dear @virginmedia. I’d like to cancel my account. I’ve called 4 times this afternoon, put on hold for ages and been disconnected each time. Why are you making it so hard?

Dear Virgin Media, Because of a problem caused by @virginmedia I urgently need to speak to someone who can help. With one exception, every time I call your system, it gives me irrelevant options and seeks to send me to a website. Please call me now urgently 07944 952835. Thanks.

@virginmedia I've spent the last 16 days speaking to agents. It doesn't work. How is it acceptable to have no service for two months? No explanation, no mitigation, no communication.

@virginmedia Excellent.. more confused why it was put in an email to me.. highlighting that despite being with you for as long as we have, we will be paying 34 a month more.. Its just a bitnof a poor show. Prehaps a review of your comms strategy is required.

@virginmedia I'm not sending it anywhere. If you want the kit, it's at your convenience not my inconvenience. When the engineer installed here I asked him of he's taking the old kit and he said... I quote "I don't need that piece of crap"

After more then 5 hours on WhatsApp chat with @virginmedia I'm now being told last weeks offer didn't go through and they want to charge me more for less services! I told them no I told them I would just cancel my services and go to @SkyUK instead because I can get a better deal

@virginmedia I literally have no further insight into what the delay is MM. You haven’t helped at all since we started interacting 2 weeks ago. Can you see why that’s poor customer service?

Again contacted @virginmedia to be told give it 24 hrs did this still the same so contacted them again to now have an engineer coming out to try and fix the problem but now I have a charge on my account for 21 35 so again contacted @virginmedia last night to query it now today

(@zainmas86) reported
@virginmedia It doesn’t seem so. Looks to be another case of ‘engineer will come and investigate’. We don’t seem to be resolving the actual issue. Not sure if there is a comms breakdown between your engineers, as it seems like when an issue is investigated the remedial action isn’t done.
