    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia The installation is still not complete! That’s the problem. Virgin was ordered on 2nd oct. First install was planned on 17/10 and then cancelled by Virgin. Virgin have cancelled 8-10 times since. It’s now 08/12! 52 days and counting

  • KpRoebuck
    Spider (@KpRoebuck) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia I have twice called to discuss the price of my package & twice, after eventually speaking to someone, they attempt to transfer me to customer services but cut me off. I've been with Virgin for over a decade but I'm being penalised for my loyalty. Please help

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

    @virginmedia the worst customer service I’ve ever encountered. 6 cancelled installs, no broadband, no Tv, no heating. Unable to work thanks to virgin media. No resolution in sight, just empty promises and apologies.

    @virginmedia So I'm told after speaking to you. Not seeing it on service page though. Agent said there was network issue.

    @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!

  • 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??

  • Mr_PaintPots
    David Wright (@Mr_PaintPots) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for responding, one of your team has now picked this up so fingers crossed someone gets in touch. Why have you made it so difficult to get support? Can you not provide an obvious option on your website please?

  • 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!!

    so glad to have my tv back from repair after a few weeks of it not working. means i can watch Liverpool vs Burney nice and smoothly on my @virginmedia box and not have to deal with that god awful @SkySports app for windows #LIVBUR

    @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!!

    @virginmedia well get renegotiating. their app is awful.

  • colingrinnell
    colin grinnell (@colingrinnell) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia is there any known problems with your WiFi hub ? The WiFi signal I receive is terrible constantly dropping out. I spend most of the time on 3G as it’s more reliable. I have rebooted all routers and boosters but noting seems to make the WiFi work

  • 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?!

  • BurvillePaul
    Paul Burville (@BurvillePaul) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia how about wasting less time advertising new products and get your damn internet and tv service to work for more than a few days without a problem!

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

    @virginmedia The same live date of the 21st still stands. Virgin have repeatedly guaranteed they’ll get it ready for then. Perhaps you can give them a nudge to let them know they have 3 days to get the outside work done. I’m sensing another let down, and I bet you won’t do anything about it!

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

    @virginmedia Well you said that on webchat you can’t do anything but raise a complaint for me. I called the pre-installs team again who have once again left a note for the area install manager to call. This note has been left several times, and of course - he doesn’t call. This is stuck.

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

    @virginmedia It seems like nobody @ Virgin is willing to intervene and sort this out. As a result Virgin just keep setting install dates and cancelling. The cycle repeats over and over. Customer service don’t help, despite me calling everyday.

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

    @virginmedia Still no call. Still no service. Still no customer support whatsoever from virgin media.

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

    @virginmedia This is the second time the complaint has been raised as the first one was ignored. It’s literally a joke and very ironic that I need to complain about the complaints department.

    @virginmedia No service is SO17 postcode, either TV or internet. Is there an issue?

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia I tried to transfer from Talktalk to Virgin but on the handover day Virgin never turned up after waiting for them all day. Then they told me the service wasn’t available in my area. Went crawling back to Talk talk.

    @virginmedia can you please tell me why I'm paying you utterly ridiculous fees each month when your "famed" internet services always fail when you need them the most. WN5 area!

  • pirate1100
    Pirate (@pirate1100) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia @virginmedia are terrible, I stopped the television & phone package years ago because of bad customer service. I only have the broadband now & although the broadband is really good the price is extortionate if you don’t keep signing up to a contract, so I’ll be cancelling that.

  • lionking2014
    Martin (@lionking2014) reported

    @tracy_s1 @virginmedia yes same, says "intermittent signal" issue

  • LWTMartin
    LWT Martin (@LWTMartin) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I’ve been hearing this for years and as a consequence would never, ever, consider anything from Virginia Media. Doesn’t help you, I know, it’s just a ‘you’re not alone’ type sympathy.

  • AFCMan_Uk
    Dave Thorn (@AFCMan_Uk) reported

    @virginmedia It's ok. I'll be calling Virgin next week to discuss it, to see if you can match the deal I'm being offered (As a multi-year long-term customer!), or to switch ISPs.

  • Jonny_M_UTG
    Jonny (@Jonny_M_UTG) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I've literally just left Virgin Media, to join Sky. That's how bad they are
