    @virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12. That’s just today and this has gone on for weeks. Pretty sure you would’ve lost me as a very longstanding customer by the time 28 days is up.

    @virginmedia Hi, the VMGo app is telling me I need to upgrade to watch live tv but I’ve got the right package to have access and have until today watched live via the app. Is there an issue? Tried restarting it etc.

    @O2 @virginmedia not a fan of doing this but o2, you guys have made a holiday in the USA as difficult as possible. After many conversations with advisors on the chat I STILL CANNOT Make calls back to the UK from here in the USA. I'm a volt customer but will rethink this...

  • chesserlufc
    chesser (@chesserlufc) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv They will but ring you when its too late stuff them I say, I've been with @virginmedia for years now and everytime my contract ends I just ring up and get a decent deal, not as good as a new customer which I have an issue with, but still a good deal!

  • Oxford_Life
    In Oxford (@Oxford_Life) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv You will, unfortunately, find that not only do #VirginMedia also not reward loyal customers with fair prices, but that their new TV box has perhaps the worst interface you have ever experienced (along with randomly deleting all my recordings!)

  • Coady88
    JC (@Coady88) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia You’ll be switching back to sky in 2 years when virgin do exactly the same, double your bill whilst offering new customers the same service at 1/4 of the price, it’s a market I genuinely do not understand.

  • MJNorman5
    calmdown (@MJNorman5) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Virgin/Sky. Two sides of the same coin. Be prepared to cancel when negotiating.

    Echo chamber again on Virgin media and Irish media in general Focusing on the big bad far right and not on the cause of the current crisis #TonightVMTV

    @gblondon1 @skytv Asked Virgin Media what options do I have for having their TV service in different parts of the house without running cables through my home...they offered me a firestick!

    @JonStone101 @virginmedia @MartinSLewis is it not time for you to look at Virgin Media and their corrupt renewal process? Every 2 years you have to have this dance and they still bugger it up. They needed to treat existing customers fairly.

  • robhjones
    Rob Jones (@robhjones) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve only used iplayer since changing but it’s impossible to watch anything so there’s obviously some connection problem and extremely annoying as its in the evening when we watch

    @virginmedia I cannot tell you how horrendous my experience has been. 4 weeks later, no install, a broken path and I have no broadband! You didn’t show up again!!!! No communication either.
