@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 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 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 Not sure what that means. I’ve had the account years before Virgin took over Blueyonder and never had problems, not even when I cancelled Virgin a few years ago.

@virginmedia Hi, I have a very long standing complaint, which has been going on since October, which has not been fully resolved. Can we live chat tomorrow morning as this is the only way I have had genuine help so far. We are owed more than £800 compensation for lack of service

@virginmedia there's an outage in Rednal Bham that you're working on, but I was curious to know how the "expected fix" time works. It just got extended by another 7 hours so I was wondering if you knew what the problem is.

A month later. Kelly Communications turns up to fix the cable that had been patched by a @virginmedia engineer. Guess who has no internet again? Two more days to wait for another engineer.
