    In case you didn’t get it @Virgin @virginmedia I’ve #switched my #mobile, #broadband & #TV tomorrow but your pettiness has taken my service away already - don’t be sending me a ******* bill! #SameShitDifferentDay #ShitService

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia You replying like this is extremely poor customer service. You are insinuating I have been disconnected when I simply want cancel my account. **** it I’ll cancel the direct debit and just leave the country. @Ofcom

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom I now have a recording of the last advisor who I spoken to... terrible terrible service and I will not ever return to @virginmedia. What a waste after 20 years of being with you. What a shame, I will send the recording to @ofcom and cancel the direct debit 👍🏻

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    2nd attempt to cancel my account and @virginmedia hang up again. I requested to raise a complaint and they hang up! @Ofcom will be contacted. (Seen as you’re not allowing a consumer to raise a complaint)

  • kaths77x Kathryn Skelly (@kaths77x) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia disgusted that as a valued customer for over 15 years, I’m moving property, wanting to move my services to my new address but because it is above a business you will not install so you are charging me for closing my account which I do not want to do 😡

  • Amandaajxx Amanda (@Amandaajxx) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @emmerrr_triciaa @virginmedia Everyone in my area has the same problem 😠

  • mrmrjarrold Matthew Jarrold (@mrmrjarrold) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Sorted now but 1/2 hr wait is unacceptable you should be informing customers of waiting times and/or offering callback service. #Amazon and #eBay do this really well.

  • kevchem1 Kevin Skinley (@kevchem1) reported from Liverpool, England

    This is really awful all round. Really hope virginmedia come to their senses

  • jmcloughlin jmcloughlin (@jmcloughlin) reported from Liverpool, England

    ITV is down on Virgin Media in Liverpool. This means Gardeners’ World is going to get ratings akin to City of Death Part 4.

  • Amandaajxx Amanda (@Amandaajxx) reported from Westhoughton, England

    Everyone in westhoughton hasn’t had any service for a week now! @virginmedia I want compensation 😤😤😤😤

  • Shotstopper007 Karl Smyth (@Shotstopper007) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia @VikkiJohnstone Your service page doesn’t work either. Get the message, this page isn’t working right now. Try again later or log into your own account. Try to log in, and that isn’t working either!!!!! What the hell is going on. I moved from sky to get away from this, and not it happened again

  • BobbyBattersby bobby (@BobbyBattersby) reported from Chorley, England

    @ITV gone down on @virginmedia

  • kaths77x Kathryn Skelly (@kaths77x) reported from Liverpool, England

    Absolutely shocking ‘customer service’ if that’s what you can call it from @virginmedia I would not recommend them whatsoever and will not be to any of my friends and family, thanks for nothing 😡

  • kaths77x Kathryn Skelly (@kaths77x) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No it’s not worth explaining things once again, I’ve spoke to customer service, I spoke to someone on here the other day and I’ve spoke to the resolutions team and have just been fobbed off by all 😡

  • djleumas Jon Samuel (@djleumas) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia shockingly bad customer service for the last 3 days trying to sort an issue with 2 different orders and being told for 2 of those days that we don’t exist. Now means we have missed out on the deal we really wanted. Please can our issue be sorted.

  • JonGre69 Grolshy (@JonGre69) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia WiFi off again phone up and I get asked to call again at a more convienient time because you are busy. Do you know why you’re busy it’s because I expect you have thousands of others irate customers calling you because your service is SHITE! 😡

  • libbyjaynekeane Libby Keane (@libbyjaynekeane) reported from Liverpool, England

    @EmmaBall5 @virginmedia Ohh Emma you’re in for a treat with these 😂😂 worst customer service ever

  • KRobbo1982 Karl Robinson (@KRobbo1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are a joke! Ive lost my services for today due to their incompetence. Been on the phone for 45 mins and got nowhere. Complaint lodged which will also get nowhere i bet.

  • yoniweisberg Yoni Weisberg (@yoniweisberg) reported from Urmston, England

    @SamMcGuire90 @GraemeKelly1 @virginmedia @SkyUK Never had any issues with Virgin media, but I do run it as a modem and use Google WiFi around the house.

  • MattCDrummerUK Matt C (@MattCDrummerUK) reported

    @virginmedia This number needs a virgin number, I'm not a customer, please give me another one doesn't send me through Bot-Hell. I can't get anywhere with this.

  • thekookykat KookyKat (@thekookykat) reported

    @virginmedia Not what I was told. I spoke to customer services and its been passed to the technical support people. Apparently. There isn't a fault with Sky Racing... its the inability to watch through my Virgin Login on the Sky Sports App when I can watch everything else! 🙄

  • Just_Joycey Adam Joyce (@Just_Joycey) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to sign in for 6 weeks. This is the issue I’m trying to sort.

  • asyndetic GCU Six of Seven (@asyndetic) reported

    been working from local pub since 3 because internet died & turns out everyone else here came for the same reason, damn you virgin media

  • hiyaitsfiona Fiona Purchase (@hiyaitsfiona) reported

    @virginmedia It didn’t even take half an hour. Absolutely no reason for it to have taken days and four no show appointments. We’re back in action but not impressed with this service. The guys just now were helpful and friendly.

  • mccall_1989 McCall (@mccall_1989) reported

    @virginmedia With my complaint. I am hours and hours wasted on the phone now and have no resolution to any of this. To say it’s an impossible task to get any form of customer service from VM would be an understatement.

  • mccall_1989 McCall (@mccall_1989) reported

    @virginmedia There are multiple issues. Numerous complaints closed without any response or resolution. Umpteen promises for calls from managers to date I’ve never received one after being assured at least 6/7 times I would. A contract dispute which has never been resolved. A refund

  • _Livviy_ 👽 (@_Livviy_) reported

    @virginmedia When will it be fixed? I'm having to use my mobile data from my phone to use my work laptop. I've been checking all day and it's still down?😭

  • mccall_1989 McCall (@mccall_1989) reported

    @virginmedia If you could sort out a web chat just now that may help

  • MattCDrummerUK Matt C (@MattCDrummerUK) reported

    @virginmedia No. Please call me directly or supply a non-dummy complaints number. That last number can only be used if you are a customer.
