@virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

@virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

@virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

@virginmedia @virginhelp So because you haven't responded I assume I am not going to get any help, correct? Would just like to know if I am moving my business to someone else.

@virginmedia I called through to Support, and they told me it was a "P4 priority" issue; I have no idea what that means, and they could tell me no further details as to what exactly has happened and what repair work is currently being undertaken.

@virginmedia @Air04__ It's important you know this but even when there are outages in the area as confirmed by text messages and emails, that page rarely, if at all, gets updated to shoe that there is an issue

@virginmedia @O2 Why are you sorting priority access instead of working on actually providing the service people are paying for? Absolutely awful internet service and all the help desk say EVERYTIME is ‘it’ll be sorted in 24hours’

@drbradley46 @virginmedia To be fair I only had one call tech support twice in my 8 years with them. But when I did it was hard work. Yeah 150 is OK but it's a huge down grade from 400mb that I used to have.

@virginmedia I never watch SD so hard to tell. It only happens on start up. Looks like virgin have decided to push the ad sometimes when the box starts up. Very annoying. Doesn’t happen every time either.

@virginmedia Yes another frigging hour of my life wasted getting messed around the endless foreign switchboard before getting to disconnections for them to tell me that I am no longer with Virgin. NEVER EVER again will I go back to the crap team that are virgin customer service
