  • PaulGee1993 Paul Gee (@PaulGee1993) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spend another 90 minutes this morning trying to get through to you after being told last week I would receive a call back within a few hours and I’m still waiting. Have you got a number which I can get through on and cancel. Worst service I’ve ever received

  • PammyVegas21 Pamela Lavell (@PammyVegas21) reported from Warrington, England

    When you cancel a direct debit pending an overpayment query, an extortionate figure is taken by them, you get charged £7.50 for late payment, you are on hold for 45 minutes and then they say the direct debit wasn’t cancelled 👀NEVER CHOOSE VIRGIN @virginmedia @SCOAF_UK

  • PaulGee1993 Paul Gee (@PaulGee1993) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I need help with getting a number so I can call up and cancel the subscription we have. The broadband has been terrible for over a month now. Was told last week there was an issue with the router and we would receive support and have had none and it’s impossible to get though

  • Nicole_Baker NicoleMichelleBaker (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia I've spent three hours over two calls waiting for you to confirm a discount on my below standard broadband and to deliver a booster. I have had to escalate a complaint as it couldn't be resolved on the phone yet I'm still waiting for the level of service promised!!!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Speecho Tracy Speechley (@Speecho) reported

    @virginmedia Thankfully your engineer (Paul ID 39317) came out and fixed the issue super quick. He was brilliant. After 18 months of nightmares with Virgin Media I have to say Paul saved the day for this particular issue

  • Redtagheur Eddie (@Redtagheur) reported

    @virginmedia Fuming. Been on the phone to customer service an hour & a half. Being passed from pillar to post. "We're running checks" *************** if you ask me. In the meantime my mobile bill is going through the roof. Im going elsewhere now. Worst customer service I know.

  • Mark_Davies81 Mark Davies (@Mark_Davies81) reported

    Come on @virginmedia is an £567 a year increase on my tv package reasonable. Been with you for 8 years and have the top package available. Is this how you treat loyal customers.

  • dcpkato_ D (@dcpkato_) reported

    @virginmedia I’m not signing up to forums just to give you a heads up about a Broadband Box that’s damaged. I’m not even with you, I was just trying to help. Clearly it’s not that important until a kid electrocutes themselves playing inside it.

  • DeanJamesApes Dean James Apes (@DeanJamesApes) reported

    @virginmedia honestly cannot believe that service has gone down again... bleeding livid, particularly having cancelled this mornings Engineer visit, sodding peeved to say the least!!! You really need to sort yourselves out!!!

  • mike_d_hughes mike (@mike_d_hughes) reported

    @virginmedia @Wallicimo That’s just a bot lie - you are not there to help

  • CounselSouthsea Counselling Southsea/Bigger Picture Training (@CounselSouthsea) reported

    @virginmedia why is it impossible to find a help number on your website? As someone reliant on functioning broadband/WiFi because I work from home, I’m fed up to the back teeth of it NOT WORKING! And it’s constant. But can I find a customer service number to call? No I cannot.

  • MB_nineteen991 ...SM (@MB_nineteen991) reported

    @virginmedia why is my mobile signal constantly crap, no doubt doing work like every other week !!

  • BirdByTheTree 🦉🌳 (@BirdByTheTree) reported

    @virginmedia why is All4 not an available app? I tried calling customer services but the automated response said it was sending a signal to reset my box and hung up on me 💀.

  • Hcoker23 Harry Coker (@Hcoker23) reported

    @virginmedia It’s WiFi that’s the problem and the hub lights don’t change. Iv been going back and forth for over a year wit this issue now. Unless someone can come check why I have these problems I don’t see any other option other then leaving.
