@virginmedia Well this is a cracking start. A call back tomorrow rescues the situation. Been a virgin customer since broadband came along. Fingers crossed.

@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.

I have been trying since the 19th February to cancel my @virginmedia services. I can’t get through on the phone... ever! I’ve sent numerous messages which haven’t had any response.

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

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.....

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 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 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 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.

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 will lie to you, will 'resolve' the complaint, then will carry on shafting you as before. Thinking about moving from @SkyUK ..... don't do it. Just don't!

I knew @virginmedia were scum bags, but to raise prices by £3.50 during a pandemic is just cruel. My parents rely on their connectivity, they also look after my nephew and help him with online school. Looking for alternative providers.

@clairemelamed @virginmedia We got charged for engineers' visits without any warning and the visits happened only after customer service had verified there *was* a fault on the line.

@SiBaker_ @virginmedia @SiBaker I'm experiencing the same problems and not getting anywhere. Our internet keeps randomly dropping out and then we can't reconnect! It's so stressful and embarrassing when you are on conference calls

Hi Virgin Media, I've been on hold for two and a half hours. I have texted your help number and tried to talk to your bot on the website. No help so far. I want to cancel my Virgin Media contract once the 12-month term is complete and yet there is no feasible way to do this?

@virginmedia I noticed what y’all doing. After 6pm you cut off my broadband. You best sort this **** out

@virginmedia Yeah but this was never an issue before so why now? After 6pm wifi starts acting up, at times it completely cuts out and I can’t stream. I need a solution not a defence please!

@virginmedia Multiple VM users in the CB24 area lost connectivity at the same time. It’s not a user side issue, it’s your network!!!

@virginmedia Well your live chat`s no longer an option, sending messages from my account gets no response, my emails aren't answered, the text service doesn't work, your telephone queue times are obscene, often just dropping out after 40-mins, and social media is unhelpful. What else you got?
