    Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just asked for all calls relating to my complaint over the past two years. You said no. So now I do a complaint against you with ico. I believe you will get a fine. Sorry.

  • stephraim83
    Steven E Whittaker (@stephraim83) reported from Chorley, England

    Dear @virginmedia I'm not one to complain, however in this instance I feel I have to. I've been paying over the odds for your service for 6 years now... with only a few issues. 3 week ago my services just stopped working, bizarrely after I'd payed for pay per view...

    @Danielle869 @virginmedia I agree. The service my 85 year old dad received was appalling. Moved to Sky, when @virginmedia asked how they could keep custom, our reply “ wouldn’t have if it was free”.

  • mickryanphoto
    Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia @LadyHorkins Standard response from a truly shit company who tell lies and say an 82 yr old’s husband ordered sky films after he’d been dead for 9 months then deny any wrong doing in their internal enquiry. Then provide what I can only describe as a piss poor service ... don’t buy virgin

  • AHeywood_84
    Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract, why cant I do this over live chat or online without someone keeping me on the phone trying to sell me a deal that is far worse than you signed me up with!! Iffer me a good deal to keep me, ir just let me cancel without fuss, Sort it out!

  • AHeywood_84
    Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

    So, at the end of my @virginmedia contract, question is, stick or twist, cost is going up and I do wonder what @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam could offer as a returning customer, we shall see!

  • TerryBpne
    Terry Brooks (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia @Mr_Mark_Taylor Full month refund please at least. I didn't go to the game and my sons missed football training for something we have paid for and cant access. What are you going to do about it @virginmedia The service is a joke!!

  • mickryanphoto
    Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia This is the 6th “complex” issue that’s happened during weekends this year! and countless other days ..... and that’s why I called yesterday to cancel, your service is obviously not fit for purpose and you have the cheek to put the price up too

  • TerryBpne
    Terry Brooks (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia @CowburnMarc @virginmedia you know this is not working so why send out standard template reply. Customers pay fortunes for this, action required and money refunds needed.

  • webbynfluk
    Raymond Webster (@webbynfluk) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia can we sort the red button issue out please

  • crhudson10
    Carolyn Hudson (@crhudson10) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Non-existent customer service; line cuts off every time we call, emailed 9 days ago & still no response & bill has increased to £167 pm for fewer services! Wouldn’t mind but I only watch Netflix! 😱

  • markfrobi
    Mark Robinson (@markfrobi) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is abysmal. I am fed up of chatting to a robot or someone in india repeatedly asking me the same questions and getting absolutely nowhere. 3 engineer visits, many phonecalls, online chats (some not even answered) and still got nowhere.

  • mickryanphoto
    Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had no service all day as have other people in the street.... not the first time I’ve had to sit on the weekend and miss my team live on tv for which I pay a good deal of money for, I don’t need to check a checker to tell me your service isn’t working

  • TerryBpne
    Terry Brooks (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia @SLK1971PNE The whole country cant access the Championship game via the red button. Problem not anyones equipment, your issue only. Sort it out, people subscribe just for this. Appalling customer service.

  • TerryBpne
    Terry Brooks (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia @SLK1971PNE Patience! Too late now it is half time ! What a shoddy service and obscene with the vast profits you make. Lots of refunds needed.

  • _DebDeb_
    Deb Deb (@_DebDeb_) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia wow called up to cancel and the guy says I’ve successfully cancelled and then hangs up!!! Thank god I’ve decided not to go with you!

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 So, you BREXshits caused all these problems & now other people have to pay for it. Jump into a ditch Boris, you said you would.

  • BarbaraMaldi
    Bárbara Maldi (@BarbaraMaldi) reported

    @virginmedia I cancelled the service. A team member on whatsapp told me that I will receive my compensation soon. But I supposed to have that money on the first week of December. I spent too much time on the phone, explaning 4, 5x the same thing. Horrible! Too much headache!

    @virginmedia Hi. Thanks for your text. There's an unresolved technical issue with my online account that stops me from upgrading or getting PAC code.

    @tomhfh @virginmedia @O2 Used O2 for decades when I was working and travelling all of the globe. Now retired and shifted to EE who have a cheaper tariff and better data package if not travelling and you don't need such an extensive network. You would have guessed that choice works.
