@Gazman1927 @cardiffstu Virgin Media have recently installed cable around here and have been pestering me to sign up. Think I'll stick with Plusnet who have excellent customer service.

@virginmedia quit harassing me to return your kit. It took 2 days on the phone post price hikes to cancel services now your customer contact options loop to nowhere. You haven't even sent a return kit or courier so ffs stop bombarding with texts & emails to send your router back!

@agmshankar @virginmedia Considering doing the same, they have increased the package price again this year (that's the second year in a row) and the network reliability seems to be getting increasingly worse in our area at least.

@virginmedia I’ve not had any confirmation. I get put on hold while speaking to disconnections and then the line just goes dead every time. I’ve spend over 2 hours on the line trying to sort this out and no one can seem to cancel my contract.

@virginmedia Excuses, your sales reps should let new customers know it may take a year for installation so they don’t cancel their previous provider before hand and Aren’t left without tv and internet for 3 months.

@atetoomanymars @virginmedia I can’t check if our landline is down because we don’t actually use it. There’s got to be a way to register the fault. You could try the link to complain I was given yesterday- that might be one way to register it? I will go and get it…

@virginmedia I’ve just been told by a friend that you’ve advised 3 weeks to restore service. Someone else has been told this was planned works and customers notified - I certainly haven’t been warned in advance. I will be contacting @Ofcom
