  • formula1girl Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I “chatted” last week. Your only solution was me paying for a service I cancelled. I “chatted” yesterday to both departments that could apparently help. Neither could unless I paid for a service I cancelled. More chat? Which department this time??

  • SimDendy Sim Dendy (@SimDendy) reported from Romsey, England

    Apologies if you can’t get hold of me - @virginmedia have ‘blacklisted’ my phone even though I am not a Virgin customer. After many hours/phone calls they are still unable to explain why & have said I need to write a letter (!) to escalate further 🤯 - any better ideas out there?

  • crumblechris chris (@crumblechris) reported from Winchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi - so the fault that is still ongoing, 24 hours+ now, and the fault line said would fixed by 11pm last night. Now the fault line says it’s being worked on - and no update for residents….please advise what is going on and an ETA for the fix? Thanks

  • crumblechris chris (@crumblechris) reported from Winchester, England

    @virginmedia Can you update the website to stop giving out false information? If you know there are ‘some issues’ can you tell me what they are - that alone is a helpful update….

  • formula1girl Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia So I won’t have 4+ months of grief, demands for an account that is cancelled and debt collectors letters for that account then? That’s a relief as your behaviour with my account has worn me down whilst grieving for my Dad but it’s not stopped you….

  • sarah_mcginty Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia Well after the services going again today, virgin media appeared a my door ( my property was ' doing lots of noise at the junction') fixed an issue with my hub and now its never been so fast!! Ive never seen so many virgin media vans in my area!

  • sarah_mcginty Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia Bang! Gone again. Nothing on service status :-(

  • sarah_mcginty Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia We've got Internet so not as bad as it could be as i do have a teenager in the house,however I would like the tv to be back up by 9pm pretty please so i can watch @imacelebrity @antanddec thanks!!

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @NewWorldLoading @ODEONCinemas I pulled off the ultimate scam by using the O2 priority app which I now have access to as a customer of @virginmedia following their recent merger 😈 Free ticket at odeon every Monday

  • JFeathjav James Featherstone (@JFeathjav) reported from Southampton, England

    @davenevin @virginmedia Luckily their customer service is excellent 🥴

  • sarah_mcginty Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia issues again with tv & Internet, seems to be a theme for this week as not first time .There is nothing on service status :-( any idea?!

  • formula1girl Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @sfc_rich @virginmedia They literally don’t care. They are my Dads provider too so I’m going to have the same issues when his house is sold. I’ve never, ever dealt with such sheer incompetence in my life!

  • formula1girl Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia Im only unwilling to use the chat as after today’s conversation by phone with the 2 departments I got told could sort out my issue & they couldn’t I am emotionally broken.

  • sarah_mcginty Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia issues again with tv & Internet, seems to be a theme for this week as not first time .There is nothing on service status :-( any idea?!

  • crumblechris chris (@crumblechris) reported from Winchester, England

    @virginmedia Thanks - but that phone line isn’t recognising when I enter digits on the key pad - so is useless.your website still says ‘no issues’ after more than 4 hours of no internet connection.

  • reyewon Ryan Stanikk 📸 (@reyewon) reported from Southampton, England

    Was incredibly annoyed at service from @virginmedia today. After sending back the old equipment 6 weeks ago, we received an email saying we were going to be charged for not sending it back. I called up 10 days ago and was told the charge would be removed and not to worry...

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    At this rate, Virgin Media is gonna have to change their name because that's bound to offend some woke idiot somewhere 🙄 #BBCQT

  • formula1girl Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I cancelled in July (which apparently you have no record of) so I contacted you in Sept when you threatened to cut my service off, that I wasn’t using anymore, and told you I’d cancelled. I’m not paying this!! Absolutely ridiculous!!

  • Macsaint99 Mark Cook (@Macsaint99) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia @TimTastic38 Ok, so if we paid part of the bill as we had a loss of service for part of the day that would be fine too?????

  • sarah_mcginty Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia so,issues in my area today, service status said fixed by 6pm,my internet/some tv stations still not working, service status says no issues, rebooted the Internet router....whats the next step?!

    @virginmedia what is going on with your broadband service in OX12 ?? Two weeks now of rubbish service

  • CrossVeecross Verity Cross (@CrossVeecross) reported

    @Sathnam @virginmedia No answers I am sorry. Has been a nightmare with my parents. My experience was a company that doesn’t want to help!

  • pgson11 Paul (@pgson11) reported

    Anyone else having issues with #virginmedia in Southside ? @virginmedia

  • CraigWoodroffe Craig Woodroffe (@CraigWoodroffe) reported

    How come @virginmedia one is not able to record anything night after night.....? Very very poor service.

  • dartos62 Iain Phillips (@dartos62) reported

    @Sathnam @virginmedia They are awful - the worst customer service I can ever remember

  • Zangchif Mizchif/OOASN (@Zangchif) reported

    @KGthaComedian @virginmedia I spoke to 8 different advisors yesterday, passed from person to person on hold for more than an hour 15 over the calls, mostly in total complete silence waiting for a resolution before they hung up. I was in shock, then when I asked about cancelling, more holding and disconnects

  • bernj2702 Bern (@bernj2702) reported

    1/3 So I'm moving tomorrow. @virginmedia weeks ago said my services would be up and running on day of move. Extremely important for work reasons we have Internet. Less then 19hrs from the installation at new address I get a call on a bad line from @virginmedia telling me......

  • LawTel23 Terry O'Leary (@LawTel23) reported

    @virginmedia I don't particularly care about the compensation - I'd like the Internet. How can it be that it takes over 4 months for you VM to gain permissions? What's the longest it can take? Why don't other providers have the same issues? Never had an issue with others..

  • StarrysLive Starry (@StarrysLive) reported

    @virginmedia Been having the worst internet ever to game with. It’s faulty and doesn’t work everytime I phone customer service it keeps re-directing me to another department. Worst experience ever, could I book a technician and change to the strongest broadband in my area????

  • bernj2702 Bern (@bernj2702) reported

    2/3 My service wouldn't be done till 22/4..... Over 3 weeks.... No explanation why. I asked for the @virginmedia person to call me back as I couldn't understand them. They said they would in the next 48hrs. And this is where it gets better. I call @virginmedia CS to try and.....
