So we pay over £100 a month for full @virginmedia package and fastest Internet going, but is it so so bad. It keeps cutting out all the time or going slow.

@virginmedia Really need to speak with someone to order a replacement SIM card. Phone lines say customer service is closed & so does the local store phone number. Live chat is taking hours.

@virginmedia we would like to cancel our contract with you but your website is sending us round in circles and it’s impossible to get through to your call centre. You’re taking advantage of the lockdown to rip people off!! 🤬

@virginmedia @WeAreOpenreach @cardiffcouncil @LornaLwyl @Keep_Wales_Tidy I believe this particular one is openreach, just highlighting this is an issue with both companies. One volunteer has previously written to virgin media posting spent wiring with the letters, but this issue it seems is not being addressed adequately across the whole of the UK

@virginmedia the state of your customer service is appalling. Your sales team pick up within 2 seconds but can’t get hold of ANYONE in troubleshoot for 2 days #Disappointednotangry #richardwhatyoudoing

@EmilyEvaGill @virginmedia So has mine with BT, they offered me £20 as an apology but it’s not an apology it’s a contractual obligation! Paying a fortune for a non existent service! Hopefully will be fixed tomorrow

Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

(@ellefie) reported
Hi @virginmedia, I repeatedly can't through on the phone to cancel and your text service "... do not have any availability to accept any more messages..." so how does one cancel? (And the answer isn't write to us via snail mail, c'mon, it's 2022.) Any help greatly appreciated!

@virginmedia We have spoken to virgin this morning and logged a complaint, awaiting another email confirmed today but hasn't come through yet its been around 2 hours. Please can you look into the matter further it's getting very frustrating.

@virginmedia The funny thing is it's been like this for ages. Yet, no sign of any improvement at all, even after all the complaints you receive. All we get in return is a **** service and inflated prices. Dd will be cancelled. See how quick yous act then.

@virginmedia I was on hold for 30 mins then when hold music stops it seemed I was muted till the line finally disconnected. Appalling service with more money taken from my account than previously agreed.👎🏾

@virginmedia Are you listening, I keep being dropped off 150 calls, that’s part of the f£4king problem. The onus seems to be on me to chase this all up, all the while. Why can’t Virgin just get things right. I’m still being charged for a 2nd line that I requested removed in November!!!

(@Twenty2Zero8Ten) reported
@virginmedia Is this fault at customer services having a knock effect with your engineer visits? I was suppose to have an engineer visit between 8 & 12. No show! Waited in all morning. Will Virgin Media be compensating me for my wasted time?

Bill Adams
(@theworstbill) reported
@virginmedia your customer service staff on the phone just told me that they're deliberately cutting off calls after putting people on hold to stop people cancelling their contracts. Maybe @WhichUK and @BBCNews would be interested?
