👽 (@bludav_andrew) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow
-

-
UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, EnglandWith the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM.

-
Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia Submitting a complaint will probably result in an apology at best. Given I pay £1k per annum for an unreliable service it’s time to look for an alternative provider who can offer a more satisfactory customer experience
-
Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, England@virginmedia No they’re helping. But it’s VERYYYY slow. But almost there.
-
Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Don't give me your copy and pasted waffle. You have done nothing to help. You have been an absolute thorn in my side! "I'm so sorry you feel this way" is such an outdated and terrible response from a marketing point of view btw.
-
Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years. Is this how your treat your loyal customers?

See page 2

Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported@virginmedia Do better for your customers. Take the feedback on board and amend your help pages to include the streaming box. Walk in our shoes and think how you feel when a big company treats you like dirt and still takes your money without a problem.. but you won't .
-
Dr Elaine Rust (@elainerust) reported@virginmedia YOU’VE CANCELLED MY SWITCH AGAIN. THREE TIMES YOU’VE DONE THIS. It’s unbelievable that you can get away with it. @ofcom @MoneySavingExp Please help.
-
appleblossomB (@appleblossomBe) reported@Dadyougeek @virginmedia @LutzSchuler Your best bet is to Phone them and cancel your subscription and tell them you’re switching . You’ll get through in minutes and they’ll bend over backwards for you & if they don’t , switch !!

-
Sinbinnin (@sinbinnin) reported@virginmedia We have had no TV in L22 since Saturday 11th July, outage checker has shown fix time this afternoon - just received a text to say engineer on the way, fix time now tomorrow. This is a bit more than rubbish, how do I claim compensation? (I thought it was automatic)
-
Samet (@Samet_UK) reported@virginmedia The Wi-Fi hasn’t been working since 1 a.m. It says there’s an outage in the area, but I can’t reach customer service either. There still haven’t been any further updates. There’s no information about when it will be fixed or what’s going on.
-
Samet (@Samet_UK) reported@AmyHeppi @virginmedia Same here. It’s been over 24 hours and my Wi-Fi is still down. I’ve called support twice—they only say there’s an area outage with no updates. The status page isn't helpful too. Really disappointed with Virgin Media. Time to look at other providers.
