Can’t cancel the broadband service from @virginmedia . Since 2 July, we tried to sent numerous emails/feedbacks and no response received; called for several times and waited for 20 minutes with no one answered the phone. No access on the webpage to cancel the package as well.

@virginmedia @Ofcom Were aware of this and continued to charge a higher rate - I wonder how many other customers out there are in the same position being charged for a service that you are failing to provide and @virginmedia providing excuse after excuse and still charging customers !

@virginmedia I know you are there - you've been replying to other people here on twitter. I've been waiting two and a half hours to be answered now because I can't do anything online. Is this really considered an acceptable level of customer service?

@virginmedia This is not about @ofcom stopping the compensation this is about you taking money for provision of for exapmple 350mbs service and not delivering on this !!! And then not admitting that this may be the case and continuing to charge customers!! It is unethical

@internetsense @seatzie @virginmedia Plusnet last I checked where just BT, they also have a habit of putting customers behind CGNAT which means no public IP bad for gaming etc

@virginmedia No that’s not what I said - the exec team did not resolve this issue and did NOT acknowledge that @virginmedia were aware that levels of service may not be provided due to demand - this first I heard of this was TODAY !!!

@virginmedia And yet you upgraded me in April have been charging me (with a very small refund for when there was no service) and despite literally hours of contact with you, 3 engineer visits, 2 new routers sent and only TODAY admitted that there may be issues due to demand that could cause

@seatzie @internetsense @virginmedia Even still the Max power is determined by Radited power from the antenna. But yes antenna position and placement will help . Putting a small one inside the box isn’t great, To be fair their routers are pants. They can’t even handle the throughput of 350meg in router mode

@virginmedia What a load of crap why did you ask in an earlier tweet then? Eh? Pure PR stunt - give that appearance that you’re concerned but I’ve called you out on it - why does that not surprise me? Perhaps @ofcom would be interested to know of this behaviour!!!

@virginmedia It’s not really any of your business who I choose to involve in this dispute and I haven’t taken to Twitter necessarily to solve my individual problem - I am here to highlight that @virginmedia are charging customers full price for services THEY KNOW may have issues due

@jasonsloan46 @virginmedia Landed up cancelling and going with Plusnet. I'm so over paying premium prices for subpar customer service & their product is so unreliable.

@virginmedia @Ofcom Again nonsense the “escalation” team are the ones supposedly dealing with it .... again ANOTHER demonstration of your departments failing to take ownership of the issues and the customer being the one left with fees still being taken, a poorly functioning service and wasting time

@virginmedia As for the number of router resets I’ve done - too numerous to count!! And continually arguing with a customer for the record is NOT the way to win them over

@virginmedia Exec team and any engineers who have attended. You can fix the fault so ive got to go elsewhere. I have not begun the process yet. Very disappointed that it has taken two months to be told there is nothing you can do. Thats £100 for a service that doesn't work.

@virginmedia the past few weeks, including yesterday, the connection has been so intermittent. the site says there are no issues, however when i called yesterday the person themself said there was an issue so they were going to transfer me to the technical team. with no suprise, i was on -

(@Jsamahood) reported
What classifies as loss of service @virginmedia ? Because having a connection that takes an hour to upload a 20mb file feels like a loss of service. Like buying a car and being limited to 2mph. The service is not fit for purpose, and I'm not happy paying full whack.

@virginmedia our tivo box has broken again and im not sure why but its not really a reliable service, in the last few months our remote has broke and the tivo had broke twice, last time we had no TV services for a week and still having to pay nearly £100 a month

@virginmedia Like I said, a guarantee from the CS person that it wouldn't happen again, but it was intermittently off again last night. Is 'boosting the signal' a way of saying 'not sure what happened but it works now'?
