    @virginmedia How's that gonna fix my problem? Twice in 2 weeks I've had no service. Can I cancel my contract if I'm in the 1st month?

  • ImaginaryCard
    Mo-Mo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Issue is still ongoing. I have called the helpline twice and after dialling my password and getting a dial tone, I have been cut off both times before speaking to anyone. Are your phone lines broken?

    @virginmedia not very happy with the service from Virgin Media! After looking to leave them last week they promised to improve the WiFi and install a 2nd box. Well we have never and now they want to install the 2nd box in a MONTH and a HALF! #poorservice #virginmedia

    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia After the two hour chat, it was finally resolved. Wife have arranged an internet connection to our new flat before this(with Virgin btw), took 5 minutes. Lot of hoops to jump through to cancel, when I just wanted to get it over with. No offers, just cancel.

  • chrisgreen
    Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia You know full well that a broken drop cable (which you already know is the issue from the last time you unhelpfully responded) won’t be shown on your service status page. For crying out loud! Your cut-and-paste response is both disrespectful and of no use whatsoever! #epicfail

  • nickhooker
    Nick ****** (@nickhooker) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia has the very worst customer service of any company I have ever had to deal with. If you value your sanity DO NOT sign up with them to provide anything!

  • craiginmotion
    craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia And how am I to do that with no service? It took 3 technicians to figure out my modem had to be “pin reset” and another to rename it properly. Thats 1 hr of my life gone. So glad @CommunityFibre has arrived near me.

  • haniehvidmar
    Hanieh Vidmar (@haniehvidmar) reported from Paddington, England

    @virginmedia I need to urgently speak to someone regarding an account! And the fact that you’ve non stop taken money out of the account and refuse to refund as well as cutting the service off when you’ve had payment

  • antonypatrickuk
    Antony Patrick Assoc (@antonypatrickuk) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia That’s my point!!! your text says you’re coming today, your system says Thursday! Once again a massive let down on your apparent Customer Service!!! Your call centre has just advised that the text was sent in error and the appointment is now Thursday....costing my company money

  • WimperisDesigns
    Niamh Wimperis (@WimperisDesigns) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia @GetYourAlexOn And spend another hour on the phone. This is totally unacceptable service.

  • Housewife6

  • remecampos

    @virginmedia my internet keeps cutting off and today not working! I had tried everything your hub mentioned and nothing

  • chrisgreen
    Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Try actually looking at your previous comms on Twitter with someone before making such an inappropriate and unhelpful response! At the end of the day, if you are not going to help, why are you here?
