@virginmedia just the most horrific service ever from you. Your agent agreed a discount due to poor service and to stop me leaving. It now transpires the discount is at the expense of skysportsHD which we did not agree. I’m now having to take it to ofcom because no one can help

Never felt so left down by @virginmedia after years of being a loyal customer my bill has increased by £20pm for no extra services when I rang to cancel I was offered £1 discount! To say I was insulted is an understatement, shocking service loyalty counts for nothing!!! Cancelled

@virginmedia I really don’t think you can. Please provide me with an email address for the complaints department. I will write a full and detailed email and if no resolution I will forward my complaint to Ofcom.

@_simonlambert @GECFrost you said it about virgin media. Maybe it’s just me (King in waiting) but when I speak to customer services a “firm” stooge e.g nice but dim wills intercepts the calls to attempt to mentally turn me over. They are sinister AF. Now I’m locked out of iPlayer

@virginmedia It would help if you read the thread and the attached screenshot. I did email with specific requests under gdpr. That was forwarded within VM and I got a generic dismissive reply which didn't even acknowledge the queries. Further eroding trust in VM

@virginmedia Say no known issues. Wired is fine but WiFi all over the house is shocking! Tried moving the hub but can only go so far as it’s restricted by the wires.

Dan
(@DanielKennett77) reported
@virginmedia So basically pay more to you per month to solve a problem that I should have? Will this stop me having to reset the box? I don’t see why I should have to pay more money to @virginmedia it’s been a disaster from day one when you never installed at the selected day. Not happy.

@virginmedia why can I not just pay the 11 days that are outside of the termination date? Told had to pay the full month and would take up to 45 days to have difference refunded. This is poor customer service

(@abz_mercy98) reported
@virginmedia They said it was a service shortage and they estimate that the outage will be resolved by the 4th of January, however they said before it would be done by the 23rd December. This is fine… however no one has offered any form of compensation or anything to make him want to stay.

@VirginMediaIE Looking for assistance please, my request to port my mobile number last Friday to Virgin Media hasn’t worked. Was cut off from customer support phone call this morning, wait time is now over an hour

(@drwormau) reported
@virginmedia As my message says it’s only devices. Once I forget the network on my devices they then completely refuse to connect so now I can’t even try and connect to the network. Maybe it’s the elderly tech in your modems. Can they be upgraded to IPv6 at all?

@virginmedia The connection has been worse than any phone I’ve had since I was 14 for the last year and a half… simple as that, £48 a month. Half of which is for the phone itself I get, but technically a waste too as the internet is still ****
