@simonrim @virginmedia Ended up removing them from our lives due to atrocious (being generous here) customer service. Even now they are threatening £130 charge due to them not sending out the box return kit.

@virginmedia This lithium service you use is to get people off social media. It obfuscates and is unable to resolve anything. I'll take my chance in the legal system and with independent ombudsman.

16 mins on hold to @virginmedia before I got through to someone who said she needed to transfer me to another department, the recorded message of that department said the number no longer exists and gave me the original phone number to ring! Some customer service that!!!

Anyone else on @virginmedia getting “To Be Announced” on virtually every channel. Tried rebooting, switching on and off. Strikes me that VM has gone to shit recently. Loads of channels have gone, close to sacking it off.

@graemefowler @virginmedia Virgin were a nightmare when I was out of contract. They wanted to charge me loads, I ended up going FTTP. Three calls to cancel and on the last call they offered me a really good deal that I’d have probably stayed for if they’d offered that first.. Moronic.

@virginmedia Strange, both my calls were answered almost immediately, it was the call handlers being obstinate that drew out the calls. The call quality was excellent both times right until they finally listened to me asking repeatedly to cancel my contract. Then they hung up

@virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 13th day with no wifi... just received an email stating that service was back LOL and of course no email address to answer. If your company was ok with their service they would not be scared to have email inbox or PM via twitter. It tells a lot about how poor your service is.
