    Hi @virginmedia maybe try answering my call ..as a customer of 25 years paying the atrocious figure of £145 a month @skytv could be getting a new customer

  • Yuz6Yusof
    Md Yuzaiful Md Yusof (@Yuz6Yusof) reported from Leeds, England

    Having been a loyal customer for 4 years with @virginmedia, I have been lied to by customer service. They applied a different package than what agreed on phone. Violation of customer’s right! Rang 3 times since to complain but nothing has been done! Disgraceful @VirginMediaCorp

  • gazbullsfan22
    Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia Service even worse you demand full payment and then will credit our account for your error and breach of contract! Your customers service staff rude! Demanding money before we can speak to anyone well I wonder what a solicitor would have to say with copy of the breached contract.

  • Lisalav22
    Lisa Lavelle (@Lisalav22) reported from Guiseley, England

    @virginmedia Call your customers to resolve a complaint not just say it’s resolved I want a call from management or my direct debit will be cancelled then it’s hello sky

  • francesktaylor
    Mosaicmania (@francesktaylor) reported from Otley, England

    @virginmedia really poor customer service. My sister died, I kept her broadband for her lodgers. Months later, house is sold and I’m told I should have returned the router. £40 fee. I live 200 miles away and I’m not psychic! You never told me about this at the time.

  • SiDay14
    Simon Day (@SiDay14) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Did you even read the thread?? Now you want me to complain about an issue I’ve complained about several times already? The whole point is your pathetic response to issues!

  • JayDS87
    Jay Smith (@JayDS87) reported from Halifax, England

    @virginmedia why is my internet disconnecting every 5 minutes and the website won’t load for service updates……

    @virginmedia I have had no service for 2 days and I’m having issues logging in to my account as it won’t recognise email/password….. help!

  • DarylBeaumont2
    Daryl Beaumont (@DarylBeaumont2) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I was moving house they said the bill would be different for the first three months, then back to normal, however apparently I agreed to a new contract @ £14 extra per month, I’d only had my previous contract for 6 months so why would I do this, oh and the house move was cancel

  • SaffsAI
    Bam Bam (@SaffsAI) reported from Bradford, England

    Why companies like @virginmedia use WhatsApp support I do not know. The system makes you wait an hour, if you don't respond in 10 minutes, it kicks you off the chat just to make you wait again

  • MartinCaine
    Martin Caine (@MartinCaine) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @virginmedia Two whole days now with our Internet connection dropping every ten minutes. How long is this fix expected to take?

  • jordfcs
    Jordan (@jordfcs) reported from Bradford, England

    @yatin_suvagiya @virginmedia Sky are rubbish 3 weeks I have been calling them to sort out an issue and now the managers that are promising to call me don’t call me back shocking service from @SkyUK can’t wait to leave and virgin have offered me a cheaper deal with more add ons that sky can give me

  • gazbullsfan22
    Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia We aren’t getting anywhere and you cut us off. This has to be worst service, if I performed as your advisor I would be sacked! How do we get to resolve the issue via the above method?

  • astolante
    Louise🐦🐝🌵🧀🐌 (@astolante) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It was never connected. I haven't been able to access my account because when I try log on, it says my email and account number don't exist

  • westerby1
    Norma (Stuckasaurus) Roberts🐀 (@westerby1) reported from Thornton, England

    @virginmedia If that was the case then I apologise for moaning! Seems it was just bad timing! Had I rung a little later you'd have known! I just always assumed that the tests that you run would show if there was a fault at your end?

  • r5008

    @virginmedia is your brodband down at the moment Hx5 area ?

  • 1972lovebug
    Jonny (@1972lovebug) reported from Burley in Wharfedale, England

    @virginmedia Can we have a chat about the aggressive individual who has come 2 my door the last 2 nights trying 2 sell me a service I know you can't provide? Appreciate he has a job to do but not everyone he will try & bully will be a former employee or know your planning team.

  • westerby1
    Norma (Stuckasaurus) Roberts (@westerby1) reported from Thornton, England

    @virginmedia Hi, John, is it possible to find out if anyone rang me just before that call was made? I'm wondering if I've responded to something I shouldn't have? I'm normally very careful about unsolicited calls and, usually, hang up, but I'm only human & we all make mistakes! It was April.

  • badlydrawnroy
    Roy (@badlydrawnroy) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia There were no outages in the area, every time I tried to use the system to fix the problem an error or maintenence page came up. Tried logging into the router to fix and the tools were all broken. Finally an hour later it just came back on by itself.

  • hoppywba
    Hoppywba (@hoppywba) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia great to see you hiked my price and the service is worse. And before you say it yes I have reset my box , that's all you ever say 🤬🤬

    @306notout @virginmedia @VodafoneUK Shame you've not got Connect Fibre Matt (UK call centre), just moved to them with 1Gb up and down, and going over to Sky Ultra for TV in a couple of weeks - I know its not always about money, but £50 less per month is worth it.

  • CorkinDawn
    dawnieC (@CorkinDawn) reported

    @virginmedia I already said i did status check which is estimating 5.08pm fix. My point was text says should be fixed shortly. I dont consider 9hours being shortly. Why does this happen more often now? You are no longer reliable any more 🙁

  • ScouseBouncy
    Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reported

    So fed with @virginmedia. The sky sports plus system has not been working for over a week and they have done nothing to fix it! Starts playing and then crashes, works on the crappy stream box but the quality is poor, works via the apps and website but not on the normal box!

  • Vincent2455
    VB (@Vincent2455) reported

    Received a text from @virginmedia asking me to return an unused device or they will charge me for something I did not request. Made the mistake of calling for address stickers for the return item. Big mistake!! No support! No idea. No stickers. How will this play out in court!!

    @virginmedia are not only happy to breach my data protection they will now not correspond with me the way I ask and continue to think a resolution will Come through Twitter message.

    Love tech like this WAS-110 XGS-PON SFP is a a module that allows you to bypass most USA/CA routers (AT&T's BGW320, Virgin Media's Hub 5X, or Bell's Giga Hub) by copying info from your router to this module and insert into a third party router or media convert from SFP to Ethernet to a router Get better stability, performance, and stronger QoS settings / firewall etc compared to the default setup I hope 1 day i find someone that needs this done
