    @virginmedia My partner - a current Virgin customer - just got *HUNG UP ON* by one of the rudest customer services advisors I’ve ever heard in my entire life. Abhorrent customer service. Absolutely shocking.

  • MissMikaSimmons
    MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi - my wifi still isn’t working. I’ve texted you and now tried to call you to cancel with no answer from either. Can I ask where is the money from your customers being spent?

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did try to call but couldn’t get hold of anyone after a 20 min wait. As you can see from the screenshot above in previous tweet, every appointment I make gets cancelled. Are you able to do something about this? Any help would be much appreciated

  • GaborPfalzer
    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.

  • SteveSmith98
    Steve Smith (@SteveSmith98) reported

    @virginmedia Why? Why can't you just give a straight answer to a simple question? What is going on, what are you doing about it, and why does it take so long? If you want to provide "the most helpful and tailored support possible", stop waffling and answer the questions!

  • JamieDaltry
    Jamie Daltry (@JamieDaltry) reported

    @O2 yet again I have to deal with your hateful webpage & app. Since your ill advised tie in with virgin media the whole experience is awful. If it weren’t for your coverage, I would leave immediately. Just signing in is a minefield, gave up on VAT invoice yrs ago, just the pits.

    @virginmedia why is my broadband continually going down in the TF3 area ? Twice so far today continuing from the last few days of outages !

  • malhal
    Malcolm Hall (@malhal) reported

    @bazzaclem @virginmedia If you use their whatsapp chat bot and choose cancel it’ll offer a new customer contract pricing probably a bit lower than £26.99 but contacts are now 2 years (They say to save you having to use the chat bot every year but I don’t find it that much of a hassle!)

    Jeff Smith (@jeffsmithspurs) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I’m desperate to talk to someone regarding my broadband as it’s cancelling but I need it to continue. I cannot get through on WhatsApp, phone or through the chat. Can you help this is critical for me. I’m a long term customer and have been on hold for two days!
