@virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.

@virginmedia We got the first bill, the customer service guy was still answering my calls and he promised we wouldn’t be charged for TV. We were! Our next bill still has TV on and he is not replying to emails, texts or voicemails. One of the reasons we agreed to switch was personal service

And the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....

@virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

@virginmedia We discussed the Oomph package which I initially agreed to then changed my mind within the 14 days, informed the customer service guy, by phone, text and email, he said he would cancel. The engineer came and documented that TV had been refused and therefore didn’t install

@virginmedia @sainsburys What you need to do is concentrate on your customer service. My elderly parents in law have been withou their phone line for two weeks and cannot get any response from a human! They are both self isolating, clinically vulnerable with health issues. This is not acceptable

@apmilnes @virginmedia We will also be cancelling our DD as no one can be bothered with our complaint. Can you justify the increase of putting our bill up an extra £40 pound a month! Yes I did write month! No explanation! I hope this is a mistake! #unhappycustomer

Apparently @virginmedia offers oomph bundles for its services. Would be delighted if there were oomph packages available for its customer services department and billing teams. Can’t wait to say goodbye now to this joke of a company, something to look forward to!
