@virginmedia - Out of contract and tried to switch to a deal on your website. Customer services refused, claiming the £250+ more a year option I'm on is the best you'll offer. I ended up cancelling, as I'm not paying over the odds - sad I have to leave though & hoped for better!

@virginmedia It's so difficult speaking to customer care as they do not listen to your needs. I will need to cancel or downngrade to a price I can afford. Can't be hard can it. I am out of my 11 month contract and go anywhere if I don't get a reasonable offer to stay

@virginmedia I’ve got through but still no one can answer my question. It’s getting rather silly now. I can’t understand why no one has knowledge of new areas you are now covering - I just want to join as a new customer!

@virginmedia Hi there, I have tried yesterday and today, I can't keep spending my life on hold. I want to cancel my service, it is a shame as I have enjoyed having it but this is infuriating. I will try again tomorrow morning, I suggest you employ more call agents.

@virginmedia I gave them a call before mentioning it on Twitter. I've sent in a complaint as a last attempt before I subscribe to another provider.

@virginmedia I will try once more otherwise yet another complaint Customer care will determine future business and future recommendations is something that seems to get ignored by Virgin.

@KaysGramma @LordSnow @Bjorkian15 @EW Think it would be much higher if it was available on more platforms, in the UK it's only available on sky, so the large customer base on virgin media would not be able to watch until available to stream.

@virginmedia Still no Internet. It has been over a week now this is unacceptable. I would like some information on when this is going to be fixed or I will cancel my contract with you and change supplier.

@virginmedia over a year to sort out my services the worst company I've ever dealt with

@virginmedia No, I wasn't and that's why when customer service couldn't offer anything close to the competition or your own "new customer" offers I cancelled, prior to the first tweet. If you valued your existing customers, then once out of contract, you'd be able to offer similar deals.

@virginmedia the way you treat loyal customers is a disgrace, you can’t listen to calls@apparently and you send security codes in the post? Yet provide an internet service. I am appalled and no one actually cares. It appears you see disabled customers as lucrative. #avoid

@virginmedia internet down all day again. What’s going on please? And whatever your answer is…just sort it. Annoying that it’s so fast but never works…never had this problem with @skytv

@virginmedia it's very nice that you have arranged an engineer to come out after I got cut off whilst finally getting through to customer service. Planning on telling me when? I get cut off when calling back...

@virginmedia another day, another queue in your Service centre, another restart of all equipment but apparently it’s all fine! For clarity this is second time today! Thanks for over £100 per month service.

@virginmedia Hi, web safe app has started blocking all Twitter content. Only way to use the Twitter app is to turn of web safe. Can you advise? Have added Twitter to inclusion list but does not help
