    @GSpellchecker @virginmedia They are rarely competent, not as bad as Vodafone but no one is. Broadband speed wise though no one is close so no interest in cancelling.

    What's going on with @virginmedia broadband just now? Just managed to find out on 150 that they seem to be doing (emergency?) maintenance of some sort. Is this how they justify "returning to the office"?! 🤪

    @MargMarvelous @virginmedia I know. Virgin is down in Glasgow but I still need a new hub as the reset button on mine is broken. I’ve been going in circles on the app and website for the best part of an hour. A simple email address would have resolved it in 5 minutes!

    David (@DRoss215) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @Ofcom @virginmedia love this!!! They’ve been at this for years!! Hanging up on customers! I hope it affects their staff now. Because ultimately it’s the company that gets fined for this, not the rude, stuck up staff they’ve got working for the company

    @virginmedia another 2 days with no broadband and limited tv service….getting to be a very regular occurrence now

  • MrGee27
    Andy Gee (@MrGee27) reported

    £28 million fine for @virginmedia is well deserved. They have never had any interest in there customers once they have signed.

  • salemsdaughters
    Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported

    BBCs report on Virgin Media is 100% accurate. When I informed them that i had moved house to an area they did not cover they pushed me to stay until my contract ended. I had also had several technical difficulties to which they delayed any actions to fix the tech issues; what was the issue? i was unable to change my email. I call their customer service dep and neither of them were able to help me. This happened on several occasions Where i had to wait WEEKS for very easy to solve problems. @virginmedia

  • Ailsa56202286
    Ailsa (@Ailsa56202286) reported

    (Part 4/4) Meanwhile, I was receiving constant calls demanding payment and threatening late payment charges. No customer should have to fight this hard just to leave a broadband contract. SHAME ON YOU, @VirginMedia.

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @ipa1869 @virginmedia Virgin Media fined £28m over 'deliberately dropping calls' and putting people on hold 'for no reason' Customers trying to cancel or switch were routinely put through the wringer by Virgin's customer service agents, an investigation by the regulator has found.

  • OldershawC66563
    Chris Oldershaw (@OldershawC66563) reported

    @premnsikka I. Found it impossible to cancel my account with Virginmedia by telephone - so sent a signed for, registered letter to contact address on their website and cancelled standing order - no further contact with Virgin media

  • NewsTongueX
    NewsTongue (@NewsTongueX) reported

    🔴 Ofcom fines Virgin Media £28m for blocking customer cancellations Virgin Media breached UK telecoms rules by deliberately dropping calls, transferring customers unnecessarily, and placing them on hold to prevent contract cancellations between January 2022 and September 2024. Ofcom received nearly 2,000 complaints and found the company's retention agents operated under a commission scheme that financially rewarded obstruction. • Fine of £28m — Ofcom's largest ever under consumer protection rules, reduced 30% after Virgin Media admitted fault and agreed to settle • Millions of calls "likely mishandled" during the three-year period
