@AssistanceVm @TranslatioNinja @virginmedia That’s a bit of a salty reply. I think your customer was referring to various barriers in the way of cancelling her contract, not the difficulty involved in selecting call options. She’s still been unable to cancel and is being pressured her to keep her contract.

If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

@virginmedia I'm moving to sky, saving a tenner a month and adding sports and movies. I might be back in 18 months. Seems like hopping between providers is the only way to get a decent deal. It's perverse logic. Surely cheaper to retain a customer than gain one? But no, so I'm off.

@virginmedia Cos I've been a customer for well over a decade and I'm sick of seeing new customers get given the moon on a stick to join. I reckon your sales team would let a new customer have a night with their wives to sign them up. But loyal customers get nothing.

@virginmedia On demand still not working and every time I sign in it’s been moved on three days for repair in my area. This has been ongoing for two weeks now which I find unacceptable especially when all bills have just gone up in price.

@virginmedia Can’t get through to customer services need an engineer to come to mums as unable to set up broadband and phone line! And why you sent out a tv box when she isn’t having virgin tv is puzzling?!

@virginmedia when are you going to provide a functional service? Having to constantly reboot your pile of **** “Superhub 3” multiple times a day because you’re saying that’s the fault... what exactly am I paying for? #Virginmediaisshite

@virginmedia when are we going to finally have some functional WiFi service from yourself? 3/4 days constant issues... pathetic

Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

@iamaafaq @sky @virginmedia Point of principle now. Been with virgin for over a decade and the deal is awful. They don't reward loyalty. Grwat package from Sky. Only are that's worse is speed but for our purposes it's fine. We don't game online and i no longer download torrents etc

@virginmedia when are you going to start issuing people the Hub 4 as the SH3 is useless for delivering wifi. Doesn’t help that you seem to be constantly having issues and massive speed problems over the last month. Any chance of us actually getting a service that we pay for?!

Recently renegotiated my contract with @virginmedia just received notification that they are billing me for 50% more than was agreed. Called them and they cannot explain why, and have registered my complaint and someone will call me at some point in the next 48 hours. Scandalous

@virginmedia are the absolute worst company I have ever come across. 18 days trying to get them sort their shambolic internet dropping & still being passed from 1 agent to another in same team. Don't waste your time with this company. They have no idea what customer service is.

Dreadful sales call from @virginmedia. I need broadband, Sky & BT sports. Best deal requires having a load of unwanted extras apparently. No attempt to qualify my needs just clearly underpaid & commission desperate sales staff relying on a very bad script. #badservice #badselling

@virginmedia your internet service is extremely poor and then I’m told you guys don’t guarantee WiFi & try to upsell me a product that also doesn’t guarantee a stable connection. Customer service is abysmal & your offshore call centre is far from helpful. Absolutely fuming 😡

@virginmedia Not unhappy with current offers. It's just that as an existing customer of 17+ years they're not available to me. When I look on My @Virginmedia page to see what I can get, it just says call. But one can spend hours on multiple calls that get cut off after holding for an hour.

Trying to get a refund for my recently widowed 87yr old mother in law from @virginmedia which really shouldn’t even be an issue. 1hr 30mins on the phone, 4 different customer advisors and no further. Embarrassing and a little degrading @BAFTA

.@virginmedia, true fibre broadband, 1GB, coming to my property, but yet, no news from @OpenreachHelp regarding #FTTP. In conclusion, Virgin has the money to install FTTP, OpenR doesn't. I suspect it will install eventually, but being a customer, disappointed it is not sooner :(

@virginmedia I’ve been waiting for an agent for over an hour now on your Live Chat - why does it take so long? This is totally unacceptable customer service
