@virginmedia My previous landline telephone number was meant to be ported over and this never got done. I’ve never been able to receive incoming calls on my landline. Internet is very intermittent. My experience with your customer service hasn’t been great. All along I’ve been paying in full.

@virginmedia Right now it is ok. The speed has been negligible for long periods over the last 2 weeks though. It’s not my kit, it’s a wider problem many are having round here

@virginmedia on 14/11/20 you sold me a contract renewal for 18 mths @ £44 per month. Today, you sent a letter increasing my price by £3.50 from 1/3/21. Meanwhile you offer the same package to new customers on your website @ £40 for 18 mths. Is this how you treat loyal customers?

@chrisckmedia @virginmedia They are all as bad as each other. I have VM and BT, which means at least one should work.

@virginmedia Dreadful customer service. Like others, waited nearly an hour on the phone only to get mucked about because I couldn’t instantly recall the name of my package. No help at all, representative wouldn’t transfer me and hung up.

@virginmedia why is live chat taking absolutely ages to connect me to anyone? I’d like to cancel my service, but if I was joining as a new customer I’m put through immediately. Are you making it difficult to cancel on purpose?

@virginmedia I've had engineers round from Virgin media on several occasions. Once I had no Internet for weeks because the engineer wired up the connection to the wrong house outside and I didn't even get a refund for the lack of service.

@virginmedia The WIFI and signal has been down in my area for over 4 days ... YET you have the audacity to send me a letter claiming you will be increasing my monthly bill? Who is running your company and are you having laugh?

@virginmedia I want to cancel; there’s been a fault with the broadband for a while and you wrote to inform of a price rise. I’m out of contract so should be easy enough-can you let me know how to cancel please-ideally the quickest way without having to try to get through on the phone!

@virginmedia is by far the worst TV, broadband and telephone service I’ve received in 20. Customer service is appalling. I was just on the phone and the customer service personal just hung up on me. I just can’t wait to leave and go back to @SkyUK. #avoid #virginmedia

@virginmedia @chrisckmedia @virginmedia you'd be expecting a fix within an hour or two if Chris stopped sending you the news, which he and his team does every day. And you know they would get you something pretty quickly.
