@virginmedia 4 engineer visits have not resolved anything. There is so much conflicting information. I really need to speak to someone who can actually help.

@AbzAaron @virginmedia Even better… if you don’t play along, nobody else will cancel it. You can’t even hang up on the sales pitch.

@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.

@virginmedia someone on your 0800 number told us to ring back at 9pm, said she would be there till 10pm. Tried to call at 9 pm no one there. Disgusting customer service.

@BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.

@virginmedia It’s the same number I’ve had for over 30 years. Read previous tweets! I wanted rid of Virgin because Customer service is really lousy. I see you’re pushing the blame to other provider without evidence. Sounds about right How long wait for someone to answer the phone today?

@LutzSchueler @virginmedia worst customer service ever. Orders changed without notification and unable to make contact with a human to discuss problem.

@hellylovesrawk @Ellydoestelly @CTweakThorne Oh no, never at work! This was to Virgin Media, who were clawing onto keeping me as a customer and sending me bills months after I'd cancelled the service!

@virginmedia I’m trying to cancel an engineer appt next week. Followed online instructions but only option I get is to re-book for a different time. No option to cancel. And I don’t have time to wait for a response from you if I phone! Help!

@virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

@virginmedia are you experiencing problems with internet in the ME1 area? Service checker isn’t working to enable us to check if it’s our router or the service?

@virginmedia I'd like to stay but not having equality means I will probably have to look elsewhere. It's surprising at customer retention isn't a priority for yourselves.

@virginmedia we booked an urgent apt for today. @ 4pm but no one turned up. We called tonight and was told we had an apt for Saturday and nothing can be done sooner. When we called earlier the lady rang her manager who organised the appt for 4. Please can someone help

@virginmedia No it wasn't. I want to do it when it's convenient for me not virgin media. Thanks for nothing..As well as expecting the customer to do all the work installing the equipment you making the decisions without consultation.Seriously thinking about my 14 day change of mind now.

@virginmedia That link is the step up from the previous link provided and offers no new information. The mobile number you’ve provided me with is also an automated service for existing customers and does not understand it’s a complaint. Something tells me Virgin avoids receiving complaints…

@virginmedia Look. We are now a month on and installation pushed back to 29/10 Surely someone can do something? Your customer service is rubbish

@virginmedia They advised phoning a number and explaining it all over again. To be honest 9 hours on webchat and I'm done. You have my contact details and the details of the problem. If its not amended it'll be a case for trading standards and a new provider. I'm very disappointed
