Emmet McDonough-Brown (@EmmetMcDB) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@okaygeraldine @virginmedia That’s one for @consumerlinda G. I’d give them a call, I’m astounded they can charge you when you move to an area they don’t service. It feels very very wrong.
-
Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland@virginmedia No! I've just spent 26 minutes trying to get through, so I'm just going to pester you on here instead. I've raised three separate complaints to no avail. My only recourse is public humiliation. For a communications company you're really very poor at it.

-
Den (@DenMagic) reported from Dunmurry, Northern IrelandI wonder how many times today my 'superfast' @virginmedia will slow down and cut off? Lodged complaint and passed it onto BBC Watchdog. #virginmedia
-
Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia So tired hearing excuse after EXCUSE after EXCUSE from @virginmedia - your “customer service” has been appalling over the last 5 months and this is NOT the first time you have failed! You have blamed EVERYTHING except your poor service !!!
-
Dermdog ☭ (@Dermo1888) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Never mind, send me my deadlock letter
-
Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia No it’s not fair at all John, I’ve been a loyal customer of virgin for quite a few years and the price increases along with the differential to new customers have got too much. Soon to be an ex customer if I can get through to your call centre @skytv any thing you can offer
-
Bobo Balti 🎩 (@bobobalti) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@br_Fk5 @virginmedia Having same issue with Sky at in laws.
-
Anna Poland (@Anna_McD91) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia worst service ever. Who can I speak to about cancelling a contract that has never gone more than 3 days without freezing and buffering?
-
Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia can you please explain why the best price as a loyal customer for years is 30 pound more expensive than a new customer. Can’t even get through to right department to cancel
-
Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia @SkyHelpTeam any offers on the go for a soon to be ex virgin media customer
-
Tom Rowntree-Finlay (@Tom_R_Finlay) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern IrelandCannot believe how @virginmedia treat their elderly customers. 75 year old women completly let down Have taken her money and delivered no services for two months. Disgusting to leave her isolated with No Sevices and no communication.
-
Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Nearly an hour trying to call. I have better things to be doing on a Saturday. This is atrocious. All I want is an explanation as to why I have been denied a service for two months and lied to repeatedly.
-
Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia @TaylorMod Yes we've checked, the world and its granny knows VM is down in Belfast but this has been since Monday now. Absolutely ridiculous. Cost me a fortune on data when I moved and VM kept getting the addres wrong, was well over a month without the service and this was 2 months ago.
-
Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia It may be an issue you're already aware of but it's going on for 3 days now and not even as much as an email to explain why.
-
Jim Doran (@jai_dee) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Just the one channel. The picture is jerking and freezing and has been for a good week now. As I said every other channel appears to be perfectly fine, it's just a problem with @wchannel

andrea hayes (@andreahayes121) reported@virginmedia @aquarius16th Hate the new interface and how it all works even to get to my recordings. Can I change back it’s awful.
-
Adrian (@ConfusedFergie) reported3 days in a row WiFi is down... @virginmedia you need to step up your game. Perhaps I won't pay you 3 months in a row and see if that gets you to get your act together...
-
GeekyHairyBestia (@GeekyHairy) reported@Simon_Whale @virginmedia Your lucky you got dial up speeds bro. I’m lucky if I get 3-6mb on the GB package and that’s when I have a connection. But yeah customer service has got worse and worse. To point you can not contract or make a claim. Good luck dealing with them,m. Lost my job because of them 🤬
-
SynergyW (@CtrlAltSpeed) reportedWhen I can and I suggest to my entire family as soon as we are all out of contract with @virginmedia … RUN how this company isn’t shut down is beyond me at this point
-
Sammy (@Tea_lover99) reported@Simon_Whale @virginmedia They once set me a virgin box that we had never asked for. Then a year later they tried to charge me for it when I closed the account. Never paid (gave it to a friend).
-
Cookie (@chrissincl29564) reported@virginmedia Hi, I have done. Someone said they would call me back then didn’t as your colleague said he couldn’t find a good deal for me… great customer service. You also then tied me into a new contract when I moved home. @Ofcom would be interested im sure Please let me know deals for me
-
Harry Ashton (@TheHashton) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt I regularly threaten to cancel on renewal, instead of paying £80-85+ or whatever they want me to pay I get it for £30ish. I've been doing that for a decade now but it's just annoying if you miss a month or so. Gonna look into Openreach through
-
Ishamael (@TheZacMan2050) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Same problem every mate. ******* stupid. Take India, get way better value so why ******** we pay stupid amounts
-
Paul Caley (@PC_ale) reported@virginmedia internet at ch45 has been up and down several times in the last 24 hours. Always that it will be fixed by 16:07 tomorrow. What is going on?
-
invs86 (@DeviousPL) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt It’s mind-blowing anyone is still using Virgin, they are absolutely awful, network is held together by string and tape and customer services do their absolute best to infuriate you - either dropping the call, long holds or arguing. “Technical faults” are a weekly occurrence.
