    @virginmedia My previous landline telephone number was meant to be ported over and this never got done. I’ve never been able to receive incoming calls on my landline. Internet is very intermittent. My experience with your customer service hasn’t been great. All along I’ve been paying in full.

    Why is @virginmedia so consistently crap. No WiFi pretty much all week and no phone, WiFi or TV today. So bloody basic! #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    @virginmedia I renewed my contract with you in November, knowing I'll move in February and your agent told me this will be the most affordable option for me. Now I'm told I need to pay a £240 disconnection fee. Your support connects me from one dept. to another and back...

    @virginmedia Hi, I need to leave Virgin media because my bill has gone up by over 50%. I can't do it on the phone because you're not answering and your website doesn't have an option to close my account. Your live online help isn't answering either. What should I do?

    Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Why don’t you do that as so far you’ve sent me the link to the community group Fail 1. Then the 150 no not connecting fail 2 then 0345454111 is not connecting fail 3 You really know how to test a very long standing customer don’t you!

    @Ofcom Hi just gone through the complaints procedure with virgin media but they said they are waiting for ofcom to give the result if the speed test you did (can provide in DM if you reply) they ate saying you have to dictate what compensation level I should receive? Can U help?

    Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Hmmm. No the test was done on Sept I ten got a letter about 2 months later which confirmed my suspicions of a slow service after a new router and CMP plugs I’ve been trying to discuss what’s next since then. Need that callback! @Ofcom

  • Strattsy51
    Steve ✊🏻 (@Strattsy51) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia why is live chat taking absolutely ages to connect me to anyone? I’d like to cancel my service, but if I was joining as a new customer I’m put through immediately. Are you making it difficult to cancel on purpose?

  • JimboUK71
    James Aubrey (@JimboUK71) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I’m still waiting since 15/12 for my boosters, and you’ve sent me a v6 box, for no reason. Spent another hour on hold, only to get cut off. Please arrange a callback to get these issues resolved. 07966594276 Thanks!

    Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Are you reading my tweets? It’s not a fault! You’ve run a 30 day test you are running far under the service I’m paying for, I was waiting for a call to discuss what VM are proposing or if I should leave!!!! @Ofcom

    @virginmedia Don’t another post with link as the first one was ignored by Virgin also contacted @ofcom and @ASA_UK re claims of false advertising of 1 GB service which isn’t actually available in Dartford once you do get through. Want to talk? #stillwaiting #poorservice #shouldLlleave?

  • MickLLF
    Michael Moran (@MickLLF) reported

    @virginmedia So what is the incentive to remain a VM customer? What is the reward for loyalty? I’ve looked at your offers for existing customers and they are nowhere near the value you provide for new customers. Does this mean Virgin Media values new customers higher than existing?

    @virginmedia why don't I have a data signal in Guildford Town centre? Can you please fix this? I know you've had complaints about this before. I'm with virgin mobile.

  • twolftaz
    Taz (@twolftaz) reported

    @virginmedia Yes - I repeat, the signal is a strong 5G, on my 3 mobile phone and I am getting speeds of 250mbs but on the wifi dongle it is 5-10 mbs as I mentioned before, why is there a difference and how can this be corrected?

  • Jo_Higson
    Jo Higson MA (@Jo_Higson) reported

    @virginmedia This is just a complete nightmare. I have never come across anything so twisted. My son moved into a student house and went to set up WiFi. There was an issue because the previous tenants had left without cancelling their service. He either took over the account or was set up…

    @virginmedia I’ve been firstly on your triage bot & then a What’s App chat since 2.20pm today (that’s nearly 4 hours at the time of writing) & I’m still waiting for help about downgrading my package. Please help me out here, it’s not much to ask is it?
