  • clairemenlove Claire Menlove (@clairemenlove) reported

    @virginmedia Really doesn’t seem much point in doing that unless your status page shows it’s fixed. This is an utter **** show and I won’t get refunded until I’m off line for 2 days? Really?

  • Geo_Toni85 Geo💀Toni🐀 (@Geo_Toni85) reported

    Virgin Media has definitely been pissin me off lately. there's an issue on our account & after calling for the 3rd month in a row they're now looking into it. Yeah there is an issue alright, of being overcharged each month since changing package in Dec! Eugh!

  • Shropshire_Dad The Wonky Doodler 💚♿ (@Shropshire_Dad) reported

    @virginmedia I have been miss-sold a WiFi booster & I'm now being charged an EXTRA £8p/m. Called THREE times and rather than fix the issues, you keep trying to sell me more bundles. THREE I've been promised a refund THREE times its not happened. Looks like I'll be going to OffCom

  • clairemenlove Claire Menlove (@clairemenlove) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working and it said it would be fixed at 4.25. No more updates? Pls advise.

  • Mandyoxo2 Mandyoxo (@Mandyoxo2) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on what's app with you and silly virtual assistant chat for 2 days now. Nobody live never appears. I am wanting to cancel account. I am cancelling my dd. Please do not charge me anymore, I do not require this service anymore but cannot get in contact.

  • revdgarry Revd Garry Roberts (@revdgarry) reported

    Hi @virginmedia having just informed us on price increase you quite rightly say we can cancel our contact with you. But.......how on earth do we do that when you won't answer the phone? Third time of trying and an hour on hold each time.

  • MiaWard41589749 Mia Ward (@MiaWard41589749) reported

    @virginmedia Are you unable to answer this question? Is anyone there actually aware of how to correctly deal with a complaint? ....Or is everyone's attitude, "Oh well, just another dissatisfied customer?"'

  • KentMarkMasons Kent Mark Masons & Royal Ark Mariners (@KentMarkMasons) reported

    Please don't put the words "Virgin Media" and "customer service" in the same sentence, ever again. They are awful.

  • vernalscott Vernal Scott (@vernalscott) reported

    @Villamad_4 @virginmedia I'll be keeping Prime and may resubscribe to Netflix. Otherise, You Tube will do it for me. Plus, I need to move around a bit more, so less TV should help.

  • Trev_Ange Miss Handsome Pants (@Trev_Ange) reported

    Virgin Media showing how shoit they are again. Slow connection or loss of connection on work devices or when using streaming apps. Advice: using lots of devices can affect connection speed. Me: I've already explained I'm home alone, just back from holiday and only using netflix
