“Virgin Media is a joke. After cancelling my contract 3 days after signing up because of their terrible customer service and lack of completed package, they tried to charge £5.40. After speaking to a manager he assures me that the account has been credited to clear this amount. 2 weeks later i notice they are trying to take money from my account. I call them a third time and get told to cancel my direct debit as it has been sorted out on their side. So thats what i did. Then a week later i receive a further letter explaining i owe £5.40. When i ask to be put through to the complaints dept, he says they do not have one and i should do it online. So here i am complaining online. DONT GO WITH VIRGIN MEDIA!!! SKY HAVE BEEN GREAT SINCE I JOINED THEM. THR CHEAP PRICE IS NOT WORTH THE TIME WASTED WITH THIS UNBELIEVABLE COMPANY(If you can call it one). #virginmediabroadband #terribleservice #wasteoftime #missingparts #cheapinternetevencheapercustomerservice”

“Had to move houses and get a bill for 125 pounds, because they dont serve that area and they state that it is my fault for disconnecting and not their fault for not serving that area. Absolute trash dont trust them.”

“Virgin broadband uk swindon is the worst. They failed to process my order on the promised date time. When called to the customer service in this they ate shouting at me which is veru very bad. RIP. VIRGIN IS THE WORST BROADBAND PROVIDER IN UK SWINDON.”

“Awful customer service. Was trying to find out how much notice I needed to give to cancel my contract, and potentially renegotiate a new deal. The cancellation team were awful. The woman was aggressive, rude and patronising, and refused to pass me on to a supervisor or someone else. I eventually had to put the phone down. When I called back I spoke to another woman who went to check / speak to the first person I had spoken to. She then came back and immediately informed me my account would be cancelled in 30 days. No attempt was made to keep me as a customer or apologise. The best way to judge a company is how they deal with an issue. Virgin Media are awful.”

“I have recently changed from virgin to another supplier.. I informed Virgin giving them thirty days. I Paid January 2020 bill on time. (I was with virgin until 1st Feb 2020) then I received a February bill for the whole month of £90.84p. I wrote off to them via recorded delivery and a couple of weeks later I received an revised bill stating that I'm £90.00 in credit but owe 0.84p??? to be paid by 24th Feb. not only the amount owed was bad enough (cost them more to send it to me?) it was in big in red font???? and the a back of the bill stated payment of £0.084p is due now even though there is a couple of weeks for the paid due date and should I miss this payment they will take action??? went to the paypoint as I would normally pay the bill. couldn't pay it that way as the minimum paypoint would except is £2.00. since I owe virgin only a few pence (and obviously they are desperate for the this fund to go through even though Richard Branson is a multi billionaire) I declined to pay via this method. I called virgin up costing me more then the bill in pence owed and made the payment in pence owed. yes it is a generic letter sent via the system but it is still programmed by a human hand and could've been stopped by a human hand as well. I'm just flabbergasted that they sent a bill in big red font like a demand with though I was still in time for the payment and then to take action over it if I missed the payment??? is beyond stupidity!!! disgusted. I really hope Richard Branson spend my 0.84p received wisely????”

“The engineer turned up and installed my phone line and broadband. Which now works all over the house and at the end of the garden. Thanks BT for £200 spent on range extenders that never worked properly! Was in my house for about an hour! One rather large box does it all. Have 80mbs at the end of the garden! WiFi! This is day one”

“After being a customer for over 9 years I am going to pull the plug on VM . I don’t have one good thing to say about this company regarding customer care and service . They are charging me £49.00 a month for broadband only , yet they have deals for the very same at £22.00 a month , no customer loyalty whatsoever. I was charged £7.00 for a late payment and when I checked my monthly account it was three weeks ago when I made my last payment . Then when I made the payment the broadband was down and there was no internet, I was told it would be fixed by the 11th of February today is the 4th . I wish I had read the reviews before going to Virgin Media .. beware , they will slow your broadband speed right down then charge you to upgrade it...”

“I made bad decision getting virgin media, since I had this contract the wifi have barely worked, everytime I have informed virginmedia they have blamed the others never got any correct answer, rude staff majority of them doesn't have a clue about company. Today I received an email that I've been charged extra for company's new upgrade which I was not informed before it got changed such a rubbish company. Give your staff training.. waiting desperately for the contract to finish so I can go back with SKY ..”

“Virgin Media is a pathetic excuse for a company. Would give zero stars if possible. I had a terrible experience with Virgin media before, but it was the only broadband available in my area so I begrudgingly entered into a 12-month contract with them. Less than 2 weeks into the contract the service was down for over 48 hours, as I work from home and couldn't be without internet for 2 days I had to pay extra for data on my mobile phone. Their supposedly amazing fibre internet doesn't work on the bedroom 10 feet away from the router. Their customer service goes from bad to downright rude. I'm now having to leave my place due to an issue with a neighbour where I'm not feeling safe in my flat so tried to transfer the service to my new address, however, their service is not available at the new flat (only 5 min walk from my current one) and when trying to find out what to do the 2 people I've spoken on the phone were incredibly unhelpful and rude so now in addition to the stress of moving I'll be £150 short because virgin media doest cover my new area, they didn't even try to pretend they cared, worst customer service i've ever experienced.”

“17 years as customer - treated like dirt. After 17 years as a loyal customer I noticed they were offering a better package than mine for half the price. Contacted them to ask for this package and was told "new customers only". Offered a package to increase my bill from £65 to £74! Cancelling is a nightmare with rude, arrogant operators who just keep talking over you. Final statement from customer service man was "you will be back in a week" said with a parting snear. Now being bombarded with silent calls from their retension department. If this is their business model then investors beware - their days are numbered.”

“Impossible to cancel, call center said the plan had been cancelled, but then didn't put it through, so I got charged an additional month for no reason. Very poor customer service and they make it very difficult to change as Virgin need 30 days notice that has to come from you not the company you are changing to(unlike all other broadband companies).”
