  • mraymond68 Mark (@mraymond68) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I have spent over 3 hours on the phone to you trying to get my broadband sorted and SIMON decides to cut me off!! Great customer service!! 😡

  • fantom_dave DF (@fantom_dave) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia shocking service and support this weekend in the Dudley area. Service constantly down and getting fobbed of by call Center staff asking to reset routers saying it will all work? Now no ones picking up in fact you just keep cut people off and no options to complain?

  • Ade1701 Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia After a couple more wasted hours and speaking to two more useless, rude and incompetent call centre operatives your customer retention team actually listened. Might help if ALL your call centres were UK based and had some compassion.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    Only 3 months until i can get rid of @virginmedia awful internet even worse customer service!

  • Stanton_J John Stanton (@Stanton_J) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia help required, #customerexperience #badcustomerservice waiting for a call back since 1pm yesterday, Six times complained about the issue in last year each time told it will be sorted and it isn’t.... Do you want this customer or do you want to lose another to @skytv

  • simkins_tracey Tracey Simkins (@simkins_tracey) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia I am a new customer who was supposed to be installed yesterday, only to be told that they couldn’t do the job. I am now without any TV and broadband unable to work due to this.I am left without any contact & waiting for another he for c/services to answer!! 😡 Help!

  • ChrisImms I.Am.Chris.Imms (@ChrisImms) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia any chance of some customer service? Installation booked for last Friday, engineer didn't show up... twice I've called and been hung up on. Complained via email, no response. Anyone want to tell me what's going on?

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    This is the exact reason I use the web chat!! To ensure conversation is saved on screenshots! So far today @virginmedia have been completely useless! Want me to pay for a service I'm not getting and they dont know when I will be able to get again

  • Neil_Churchard Neil Churchard (@Neil_Churchard) reported from Solihull, England

    Wow just had the worst customer service from @virginmedia can’t say I’ll be staying a loyal customer at this rate 😤

  • bjwgorman Ben Gorman (@bjwgorman) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Always but it makes no difference. There have been issues where I live since the start of lockdown. I have made a complaint but it’s gone no where.

  • bicovico victoria nicholson (@bicovico) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia I pay £22 for sky sports - asked for it to be removed and the price has only gone down £13 . How is that right, fair or legal ?

  • Ade1701 Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Waited over an hour on hold only to be hung up on by an extremely rude call centre operative after explaining I’m trying to administer my father’s account as he’s just died! @virginmedia you disgust me!

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    And @virginmedia want me to pay if I decide instead of the uncertainty i want to cancel it and get someone like @SkyUK or @BT installed that can actually provide the service you pay them for

  • lorna_conway Doonie (@lorna_conway) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia It's not an issues according to the site. It's working on wired connections. I'll be looking for compensation after this. If the costomer tells you there's a problem then take their word they're the ones paying you, why would they spend money other than to get what they pay for.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Internet down yet again!!!!! Awful customer service yet again!!!

  • lorna_conway Doonie (@lorna_conway) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia Friday I booked an engineer as the WiFi on our hub keeps dropping. At the same time I upgraded my package. This includes tech help. Since Friday I've had no WiFi. I tried website chat but got dropped I've tried calling but was waiting too long. I'm getting bored!

  • Ade1701 Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Does anyone at Virginmedia ever actually answer phones? Calling from my parent’s number, supposed to be listed as vulnerable/priority. No answer for over 40 minutes! The hold music is torture, and zero indication of how long the queue is! Your customer service sucks!

  • cybilrat Jennie O (@cybilrat) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    In these times where working at home essential @virginmedia one week before anyone can fix my internet which was fine before your maintenance

  • K45TRO EA (@K45TRO) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why is your broadband so awful?

  • TheRamblingElf Richard (@TheRamblingElf) reported from Birmingham, England

    @AksTailor @virginmedia When I had some issues like that I haggled a month or two of free Internet from Virgin until the issue was resolved. Convincing them to do that took an infuriating number of phone calls but it was a satisfactory outcome, I've stuck with them.

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia My husband has called because he is the account holder and has a Virgin phone. Virgin apparently will call tonight/tomorrow morning. However, my feeling now is that your service will work for a time and then will go bad, there is a pattern.

  • Alma1884ok Alma (@Alma1884ok) reported

    @virginmedia @MarekSzczytko Why do you not allow customers to cancel renewed contacts at vastly inflated prices. Cannot get through on the phone or online. You are an absolute joke.

  • jason712 Vixulation (@jason712) reported

    @virginmedia Incredible customer support 🙄

  • sydkerrigan2018 syd kerrigan (@sydkerrigan2018) reported

    @virginmedia I’m on about before all this. Prior to this increase in price you would never allow a customer to leave mid contract for nothing and you know it.

  • Alma1884ok Alma (@Alma1884ok) reported

    @virginmedia @PartyDownSTARZ @lionsgateplusuk Why do you not allow customers to cancel renewed contacts at vastly inflated prices. Cannot get through on the phone or online. You are an absolute joke.

  • Artemissave Mellissa Walker (@Artemissave) reported

    @virginmedia waiting on the online chat since 1.25pm today to cancel and still not connected with an agent. Is nearly a 4 hour wait normal?

  • Taz14826215 Taz (@Taz14826215) reported

    @virginmedia your service is a joke - had no internet since last week friday, and cause of that, my university studies and my job has been severely impacted. And now there’s a price hike of an extra £7 - Im switching providers since clearly i’m not valued as a customer

  • WillPendrill Will Pendrill (@WillPendrill) reported

    @virginmedia I just got your email highlighting the cost of living crisis. But it appears to be your costs that are the issue not your customers, so you are raising my monthly bill by 29%. @MartinSLewis this strikes me as margin expansion, not cost covering?

  • Hockley_Emma Hockley_Emma (@Hockley_Emma) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi down. Up and down green arrow signal flashing, 5.0 GHz simple static blue. Found issues in my area most my postcode check. Please advise - need urgently to wfh

  • PaulStenton1 Paul Stenton 🕯🇪🇺 on mastodon (@PaulStenton1) reported

    @MoneySavingExp @MartinSLewis Virgin Media-rip-off Britain. My mother is almost 87. She has made several attempts to cancel her account, but Virgin Media continually obfuscate. I have finally managed to cancel her account. They want £117 to close, she had basic TV and Phone.
