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

    @virginmedia so we’ve been with out our tv service since yesterday morning. The service checker has had the fixed time extended twice. What is going on?

    @virginmedia @NetflixUK You may as well not have a customer services team. I’ve spoken to one helpful person in the 53 days I’ve been chasing Virgin for my install.

    @GeorgeMonbiot @timolarch @VodafoneUK My husband had the same problem with Virgin Media after the death of his father. He was given the number of the ‘bereavement department’ and he phoned, assuming they would help. Instead the woman demanded his father’s PIN and said only he could cancel!

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey

    @virginmedia After waiting 24hrs for a response on WhatsApp I’ve once again been told I need to talk to another department. I waste more time waiting to speak with the “correct” department, only to be told they can’t help because of a third party completing the work. Absolute joke

    I have a go at customer service a lot, but with the move @virginmedia were great, @thameswater exemplary, @SouthernWater a great guy on customer helpline and Test Valley Council efficient and personable. It can be done, you know.

  • 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!!

  • JoannecolesJo
    Jo (@JoannecolesJo) reported from Eastleigh, England

    Just want to recommend that people don’t go with @virginmedia for their broadband I’ve been trying to leave for 2 weeks and ‘they’re very sorry to hear that how can we help ?’ Just let me cancel for goodness sake’s

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia You’re not helping. You’re asking the same questions you ask every day. Yes, complaint raised. No, Virgin have given no reason why they keep cancelling. Next you’ll tell me you can’t do anything to help, which is exactly what your customer services say

  • Duckocide
    Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia So I'm told after speaking to you. But seeing it on service page though.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia I rang pre installs 3 times last week, spending an average of 1hr on the phone, getting no where nobody in preinstalls can tel me what’s going on, they just promise to get someone to call me. That call never happens

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia So you’re not going to do anything about it, despite knowing it’s destined to let me down. Exactly the same attitude as the rest of virgin. The problem is, it’s taken almost 4 months. This is the issue; deep rooted - Virgin reps don’t care

  • SarahJaneDyke
    Sarah-Jane Felicity (@SarahJaneDyke) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @hantsconnect @virginmedia Hi - I already logged a complaint when the damage was done 1st time

    @derwenttwo @MylesJohndmyles @GBNEWS Argee with totally. On matey question I flack through channels via virgin media no problem on any channel including the awful gb news however on Freeview all channels good Quality except the awful gb news which the worst of the lot a bit like the content I dot know about sky fst

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Virgin are compensating me £5.25 a day. That’s £787. Two years of free service because they couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery

  • simonnewby
    Simon Newby (@simonnewby) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I do have a reference bit this is exactly the standard (or total lack) of service I have received for the last 4 weeks, hence the open complaint. Not one person from Virgin has contacted me in any way in that time, despite at least weekly promises like this one.

  • 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….

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia They are shite!!! We have had the same issue since March last year! Up and down like a yo-yo!!

  • 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.

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

    Yeah I'm just gonna point out that I couldn't give a **** about the boxing Boxing is a sport that's become corrupt like the Brazilian government, money driven like a Latin American drug lord, so yeah, I'm not paying £25, on top of the £126 I pay to @virginmedia every month

    @MartinSLewis Well, @virginmedia pretty useless at fixing their service too. Broadband down as we speak!

    Paul Turner™ (Personal) (@PaulTurner140) reported

    @DrealSMAK @virginmedia Don’t waste your time. They only want you to DM them to keep your complaint from public view.

    Abysmal service from @virginmedia ...24hours without broadband/tv and so much time wasted on chatbot checks....they dont even bother to log a case.

  • GW_Mktg
    GW 🔰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GW_Mktg) reported

    Second guess, for @virginmedia… the classic ‘cut the wrong wire’ then a lot of head scratching to work out where the problem was?

  • bahallathegreat
    Emily Atkins (@bahallathegreat) reported

    @virginmedia do u ever get back I’m disabled all I’m asking for is a little help I need a engineer to come look at the connection and lay down the cable to the floor. Yet your not answering back

  • paul_wingrove
    Paul Wingrove (@paul_wingrove) reported

    @EDFofficiel Customer support at EDF UK shows a level of incompetence which is worse than Virgin Media, and God knows VM is utterly useless.

  • BM502s
    B M50 (@BM502s) reported

    @biggle1908 @C_Midd99 Rkid had the same issue with his Sky package & price, so switched to Virgin Media, now saving £70 a month with faster broadband. Couldn’t be happier with it.

  • Navigator429
    The Navigator (@Navigator429) reported

    @virginmedia hi. I am an ex customer of yours but it seems my account is still active. I keep getting emails alerting me to someone trying to log into my account. How do I request my account to be deleted? You shouldn’t hold an active account for me if I’m not a live customer.
