@Dabooka @skybiggerpic @virginmedia It was my second attempt to be fair. First time they reduced the price rise to £1.50 per month, then I rang back a few days later to cancel. Found a better deal elsewhere but price was the driver for wanting to leave. Lovely @virginmedia agent was able to help!

@virginmedia @honestlyhelen I've had similar feelings, my bill has rocketed by £11 per month over the last few months for my TV only service as Virgin only offer discounts now for multi package deals, loyalty no longer rewarded it seems 🤔

@MrChrisWynn @Simon21ne @virginmedia @nowtvhelp @SkyHelpTeam I managed one week before cancelling! Sky says I have so many devices that it’s slowing the hub down, in 2019 that’s piss poor

@virginmedia Every single day for the last week my router just turns itself off and starts to update or drops out completely. Paying a lot of money for this service and it just isn’t good enough.

If @virginmedia offer you a 6 month free upgrade do not accept it. It is a way of locking you into a further contract. Poor service as always

@virginmedia The person that put me on hold said it looked like there was a problem in our area and tried to put me through to technical help but after music droning on for ages it just stopped. Have given up and watching a dvd instead

Nice one @virginmedia I've missed all the 2nd half of the match now. No BB, no Tivo. And your still billing me a higher rate than was agreed when I did the tests which say no issues in my area. Tried resets.

@virginmedia I’ve already spoken to someone on the phone who reset the network, but that didn’t work. I also tried re-starting everything and that also didn’t work, the box itself is very slow now also.

Shoutout to @vmbusiness who after 5 days told me to reset my router and have now told me they will simply continue to monitor the problem. No stream until NationWars now where we pray it’s going to be better.

@virginmedia thanks to your shocking 'sudden' loss of service for the next week I'm missing the most historic event of my life having zero tv or Internet. You lie about the cause to try and keep me as a customer. Absolute filthy behaviour. Sky wouldn't do that!!!

Sam Barnett
(@SamBarn88705209) reported
@virginmedia - part 2 - after all that they can’t book the date. I ask about complaints & they don’t know anything on complaints. Not great for a new customer purchasing your “Ultimate” bundle. Resolve my complaint & get me an earlier appointment as oringally advised.

@virginmedia You're sorry I feel this way not sorry for giving bad customer service? You make it very difficult to get a hold of anyone through the other platforms which I now know is very intentional. I did try the option to become a new customer, I got through straight away. Funny that.

@virginmedia Where's your customer support? It's been nearly a week without contact from you and 2 days of activily trying to get through to a real person to deal with my issue, that your company has created

Shameless. After 1hr+ on phone to @virginmedia to resolve a technical issue, disconnected a number of times, I offered the 4th person I spoke to my number for a call back if line dropped. Was told Virgin not allowed to make any outbound calls as a mark of respect to the Queen.

@virginmedia Hello. No broadband here at the moment. Online status checker says no problems, but then I get "Sorry, we can't run a test on your services right now". Any thoughts? Ta.

@virginmedia I'm hopeful it can be amended quickly as suddenly having no internet and no one at Virgin Media being able to resolve it after two calls and more than 3 hours with customer service is rather frustrating as a long term customer!

@virginmedia texts everyday saying you are conducting urgent works and broadband down at least for an hour. Awful! Today no text. Broadband down all day then text saying work completed but still no broadband. Don’t answer just want people to know what kind of service you provide.
