@AnnG50707311 @virginmedia I always haggled with them and got them to come in at new customer prices. Surprising what they will give you when you let them think you are leaving. Also let them know what other companies will offer you to become a customer as they may match the offer

@virginmedia we've had atrocious broadband on SE26 4HN for weeks now, it just keeps dropping out and then coming back. I have just had my bill and I'm not really feeling we should have to pay for the service we've had this month.

@TracyWoodley4 @virginmedia @Virgin Their service has certainly gone down hill and this issue with the call centre is a complete farce. If they can't even get their own internal systems sorted as a telecomms company what hope do we have? My contract is up in March and I will defo be leaving Virgin.

@virginmedia I think I may actually be free from #Virginmedia at last other times I phoned up I got someone who just basically lied to me and extending my contract but this time I phoned up to cancel the contract and actually spoke to a very nice man so hopefully it's all done

So trying to cancel @virginmedia services and the stalling tactics being used are not cool. If customers want to leave they have every right to do so. Let them go.

@cameraoncaught @virginmedia Have you forwarded this to Virgin media internal complaints? In my opinion Virgin have one of the worst customer service teams around but it may reach someone who can act upon internally.

@virginmedia Apparently nothings wrong, however I’ve had slow speeds and intermittent internet since it was fitted. I also called a minute ago for the assistant to say it will be 48/72 hours which would be perfect for the weekend however I work during the week.

@virginmedia I have called 3 times and spoken to someone and have been told different things. I do not have time to sit on the phone for hours or on the chat. Nothing has been resolved once again. Disgraceful customer services

@virginmedia not impressed, broadband down in HG3 area twice in past 24 hours, following recent email from@you explaining how you recently upgraded the service locally! Booted out of 2 important meetings!!

@virginmedia Sure, there was more work to do. But no transparency was provided on progress and always postponing at the very last minute, with a pinky promise that everything will work out next time, and it never did (x4).

The world’s worst broadband provider @virginmedia strikes again… broadband goes off without warning while I’m working. Recorded message says ‘we’re working to make your service better and it will be off for a short time… should be back on by 3pm’ WTF?

@virginmedia Too many times mate. That's a day of annual leave for me and my partner we'll have to take yet again. We've paid for childcare, the house is empty and we can't work. Just cancelled direct debit. If you have a problem with it we'll see you in front of a magistrate I guess.
