@virginmedia your sales team are the biggest bunch of #fraudsters I’ve ever dealt with! Phone us to offer a better package and you have taken our package and completely messed it all up! #CustomerService at it’s worst! If this is how you treat a loyal customer of 14year, I’m off!

@virginmedia you really are useless. I've just spent 4 hours on the phone/online trying to find out when my service will be connected and you just put me on hold. I cant even leave because I tried that and you put me on hold for over an hour

@virginmedia I’m getting pretty sick and tired of paying you almost £70 a month when our internet/TV service has been so poor the last few months in #TunbridgeWells. Will now actively start looking to swap providers.

I cannot believe that our @virginmedia internet is down AGAIN. (Same issue last week) Working from home is made nearly impossible by these jokers and not a wird of apology. With a holiday coming up I have a lot to do, @virginmedia are doing their best to increase this work load.

@virginmedia hiya, another night of constant router/connection restarts and problems. Multiple engineer visits, senior engineer visits, call centre calls, new router and £160+ a month down the drain. I don’t want to switch provider but you’re not leaving me much option

(@RichardUnstead) reported
@virginmedia Thanks for replying, there is a better deal but as a loyal customer since the Telewest days it's not open to me. I'd be content with anything I'd consider fair, even if it were slightly more but £71 vs. £35.99 .... There must be a middle ground.

@virginmedia @btsport why can't I watch BTSport1 on my android device via the virgin tv go app? I am getting a rights restriction message. I pay for the service so should be able to watch all programmes irrespective of the device being used.

@virginmedia Yeh, I've booked an engineer. Seems the key is to call 3 times for the same issue.

@virginmedia They don’t do any checks. Your call centre staff is trained to get rid of customers so they don’t reach the managers or file a complaint. I’ve recorded them lying.

@virginmedia Broadband still at @ 2Mb/s instead of 500Mb/s since early Friday evening. Virgin cancelled the engineer appt for Monday stating known network issues. When will this be fixed? Not good enough.

@paullloyd1 @virginmedia I am in the exact same position, retain your customers through great service, don't hold them to ransom. Be bold, be different. Don't resort to these tactics please.
