Kris (@KrisTaylor1992) reported@ryantegan @skytv Cancel, then sign up in your partners name as a new customer. I do this with Virgin Media. I went from £58 to £28 and kept me as a customer. Best case retentions will offer you a better deal, worst case your partner gets new customer discounts.
-
Seph (@sephiroth17181) reported@wrighty1707 @virginmedia the company is a complete joke, i was paying £56 a month for 1gig and the last 2 months were atrocious for connection the best they could do was send patronising emails saying it was my issue, so i switched to EE 1.6gig for £35 a month with unlimited mobile data to boot
-
Bartłomiej Hajduk (@bart_hajduk) reported@virginmedia I've written to the local council, hopefully they will enforce the repairs or issue a fine.

Dr Peter Dilworth 💙 #Woke #GTTO 😷 Blue Tick👀 (@PeterDilworth1) reported@virginmedia please help these people out. You are now aware of the situation and are not providing the service you are being paid for.

-
matt (@ExpectedReds) reportedRichard Hughes has been locked out of his Outlook account. The IT guy is on annual leave. Virgin Media have been doing line maintenance near his house. Real world problems and you’re all laughing at him? For shame.
-
Rob (@robiand) reported@virginmedia TV and Broadband broken for over a week after your engineers damaged the cable to my house whilst installing a new customer. Repair should have been Saturday, was cancelled and rescheduled for yesterday, cancelled! and now cancelled again today. I’m moving to @skytv
-
Mike Kennelly (@mvkennelly) reportedVirgin media broadband in London N21 has been intermittently down now for weeks and nobody at Virgin interested in fixing the issue . Hours on the phone being told to turn it off and on ! We are out at the end of this contract for sure, very poor service.
-
Torexeon (@Torexeon) reported@wrighty1707 @virginmedia It was me who suggested this when I worked for them. I designed it to get you on the phone to retentions, because a huge percentage of customers would just sit out of contract or complain online about astronomical pricing. Granted not every customer is able to get a decent deal.

Lifes MIS-Takes (@alan_reddish) reportedNeed some proper answers from @virginmedia. No internet for 5th day.....estimated fix 4th Sept!!
