Dear Virgin Media Customer Service, I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the service I have received following a power outage in my area on Saturday, June 15th. My Virgin Media router was damaged as a result of the power surge, and I have been without internet access since then. Despite numerous phone calls to customer service, I have been unable to get the issue resolved. Appointments with technicians have been repeatedly canceled, and I have received conflicting information from different representatives. I understand that this may be a larger problem in the area, but I am frustrated that other internet providers were able to resolve similar issues for their customers on the same day. I work from home and rely on the internet for my livelihood, and this prolonged outage is causing significant disruption to my work and personal life. I am disappointed with the lack of urgency and effectiveness in resolving this issue. I would appreciate it if you could escalate my case and ensure that a technician is sent to my home as soon as possible to assess the damage and restore my internet service. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, Farrah

Unfortunately unable to put minus 5 stars.. The biggest mistake I did and sign up with them, stay away at any cost..The bill is always wrong, every month calling them around 7-8times to get it sorted and fixed only to get same issues over next month and its now been 5 months. Their complaint department and customer services doesn't understand anything and all they do is escalating the issue after that telling you they tried to call but couldn't reach you so closing case and you are going same circle over and over.

The company have resorted to stealing money from my bank account and when I rang them they have admitted that this should not have happened and I'm still waiting for a manager to ring me back to sort this out three days now

Phone up to change my package, got told I could get the special package which should cost £230, for only £158. I am £158, as my contract ran out (full price with the add -ons). The package the offered me at a special price is the same, as I already have. Oops forgot I don't have ULTRA HD sports channels, I just have HD. Think it's time to look else where

I had to cancel my services today because I am moving homes and where I am going my friends already have a connected active virgin media account. The company is trying to charge me £500 something for services until the end of my contact, as I ''do no wish to move my services to my new address''. Clearly the case is that I am unable to move my services, not that I do not wish to do so. Do I tell my friend to cancel his services so I can bring my ones over? This is ridiculous. The company is causing me stress and demanding for money I do not have - hence why I am moving out from my current home. How can you try to charge me for services I will not be using and cannot move with me? This company has no regard for customers and their situations- I will not be using them in the future.

Issues with broadband connectivity and speed ever since I switched to them a few months ago. Had 2 engineers out, had modem changed but issues persist. Booked 3rd engineer who never showed. Ofcom require automatic compensation for missed engineer appointments but Virgin denied culpability. Tried to end contract but Virgin said I would need to pay £320 early termination fee even though they have broken their own contract by failing to supply the required services set out in their contract. The absolute worst internet provider I've ever come across and wish I'd just stayed with my last provider.

I want to write the biggest review ever. My bill was meant to be £60 a month for charging us £135+ every month for a basic package sometimes it’s different and higher and lower every every time I say I’m cancelling the disconnect from virgin media

from virgin media,without informing me, they are renewing the contract and deduct money from my account(thats also a huge money) after contract, for cancellation from virgin media, again they are asking to pay huge money, we didn't even break their contract, they are offering to pay 80 pounds a month if we renew their contract ( we are using WiFi only at home) I won't recommend anyone to take broadband WiFi connection via virgin media, their customer service is really awful and cheating

I can't give a zero but here is why I would. Dear Lutz, For three months now I have been attempting to resolve an issue with your company.  I received an email in December about a new contract, now having a fixed contract until August 2024, I called to be told I have nothing to worry about, there is nothing new on my account.  I asked why I had received the email but nobody could explain.  In February a spurious payment left my account (in addition to my contractual payment) of £79.13 I call again, perturbed! And over an hour later was advised this would be escalated and dealt with. Agreeing that it was confirmed that I had indeed NOT agreed to a new contract.  Weeks passed and no reply, so I call again. This time armed with more information to suggest a breach of GDPR had occurred! My ex husbands email address was on my documentation.  I contacted my ex husband who confirmed he had no renewed a contract. Please note he had not lived at my address for five years, without a hitch until now.  Unable to explain again, I was promised a call back and explanation and a promise to correct the situation, putting me back in the financial position I should be in.  Ummmm.. No call so I call again, I am getting pretty frustrated now, explaining that I know a breach has occurred, asking how? And how is it being corrected?  Instead I keep being told that I need to have my contract altered!!!  No way! Fix do not alter. I called this week again to no avail so I have registered the activity as fraudulent with my bank.  I will be referring this to my solicitor for further guidance.  This is my last ditched attemp to raise an ounce of interest in quite a serious situation. Publicity of this nature is never good Publicity.  I look forward to a response with 48 hours, having just had another email with "your bill is ready" for an account that IS NOT MINE.

They charge me £77 for the package that is advertised for £40 on their site. Contract has long expired, yet they refuse to renew the contract at £40. Even after I wrote to the Virgin Media CEO Lutz Schueler, he simply passed the message to complaints, and they never reply. They send you rude automated emails on which you can't reply, and you cannot get through to the call centre, so they are not contactable. Atrocious service. Don't even think of joining them and run at first opportunity.

I'm adding this review to as many sites as I can, I have decided to do as many sites as attempts I had to make to cancel my Virgin Media despite being out of contract. So expensive! Always increasing the bills. Much cheaper elsewhere. Customer service awful. Took five calls and many Web chats to finally get cancelled. DO NOT BOTHER EDIT: even after the 5th call we were sent ANOTHER contact to sign. Their cancellation centre is clearly up to something dodgy! I then tried to cancel on the web chat, was on the web chat for over an hour (remember I am out of contract), waiting and waiting while they make more promises that they are cancelling my contract. Assurances that its all done and an email will be with me within 48 hours. Guess what... Email never comes! I ask for transcript of webchat (which you are given the option of in an email). Guess what... The transcript never comes. I try again on the web chat exactly the same promises. They started by saying that they had no record of my cancellation. Luckily I took screen grabs of the first web chat as I just knew they were being dodgy. Then they did manage to find a record, after about another hour qnd refusing to leave the web chat until the email is sent (remember that I am out of contract) it finally arrives. Guess what... The 30 day notice started on that date! So clearly there had never been a cancellation process started! Asked for a transcript. Guess what... Transcript never came! Their customer services have clearly been out sourced to an unscrupulous, sales company who are lying and playing dirty tricks to make it difficult for you to cancel. I have made a data access request for all of the transcripts and recordings of calls. I have put in a customer service and a staff conduct complaint and intend to bundle all of the information up to make a complaint to Ofcom. Something needs to be done about this.

I have had lots of calls from this number 02039804396 over the last week. Glad i checked who was calling as now apparent it will be Virgin Media because i cancelled my package with them. I was paying £47.99 broadband and TV then they took £129 last month, when questioned they said my introductory offer had ended, no notice just took the money. Took about an hour to cancel with no apology. Couldn't match BT or sky but to top it all you can get a better deal as a new customer and a free 42" TV. Incredulous
