    Absoloutley disgusted with @virginmedia been on hold for 2 hours - I'm an existing customer and one agent has hung on me!!! I want to discuss my existing contract with them. How the hell are you supposed to speak to the complaints department or a manager in charge!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Cuerdley, England

    @virginmedia Internet gone again. Second time today. Bottom light goes white and starts flashing, then green and flashing. Then the arrows light up green and flash. I can’t get 24 hours out of this service. This isn’t what I pay for and it’s terrible service.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Cuerdley, England

    Aaaaand @virginmedia broadband is down again. Useless.

  • GrahamEdgington Graham Edgington (@GrahamEdgington) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia receive a final account for £63 and that would be the end of things. The final account never arrived however the outstanding account has been passed to BPOB collections who bumped it up to £269.96. I have paid the account off, so sincerely hope that Mr Branson 1/3

  • shaunbentley Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Trip haziest outside my house cables running to next door which were supposed to be temporary, unstable service, rattling router, some of these issues have been resolved. Others haven’t. I’ve asked for final response but no one will talk to me about this.

  • JoelLJelen JoelJelen (@JoelLJelen) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia it’s 2019, your online customer service is so poor and your offline telephone service saw me waiting 15 mins and still in a queue! Given up.

  • spuddy1878 Neil (@spuddy1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Two different mobile phones and no joy at all. It’s picking up another WiFi signal from someone else but not from my home.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    So that’s @virginmedia cancelled off and their poor effort at a service. I had more reliable service with dial-up! Now signed up with @SkyUK and hoping they can at least provide me internet that I can use for a day without it going off constantly.

  • GrahamEdgington Graham Edgington (@GrahamEdgington) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia My Mother in law recently went into care with the late stages of Alzheimers and as power of attorney of her affairs I have tried to cancel her phone contract however your customers service did not want to know. They marked the file closed and said I would 1/3

  • toadfish41 Chris McPartland (@toadfish41) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi it’s media service I cannot set up an account please help

  • textmaniaa Tracey Brooks (@textmaniaa) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia what's the point in sending a letter stating if yr service hasn't resumed by 5pm ring this number. When they shut at 5pm. Poor service again from virgin media. Nearly 8pm and still no tele or broadband. What a joke of a company.

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia As per usual there’ll be no problems in the area, I’ll get told to unplug the box, then you’ll book an engineer for about 5days time, meanwhile the problem magically disappears #badservice

  • rian951 Rian Murray (@rian951) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia Well unless you can help with a booster - customer services wanted £360 for an EE one! Most other providers offer WiFi Calling!

  • Kimbow21 kimberley Goodinson (@Kimbow21) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I’m disgusted I’ve been a customer for 15 years and more . You’ve put the price up by £20. The very unhelpful person on the phone offered me a £2 discount . Disgusting back to Sky .

  • PETEBREEZY Pete Breezy (@PETEBREEZY) reported

    8 days after raising a formal complaint to @virginmedia and still no contact. An urgent issue going totally ignored. Great

  • kennyhd ken h 96.5% (@kennyhd) reported

    @virginmedia Take notice; if I do not get a written response to my email, clearly stating and confirming the cease date as 11/2/22 and a final DD of circa £25.20, by the 8/2/22 I shall inform my bank and cancel the DD. Virginmedia do not have the right to overcharge on a DD. My MP is aware.

  • Lifeits3lf Zoey Mermigki♦️ (@Lifeits3lf) reported

    @virginmedia Couple of days ago. I did it fix things for an hour or two but then it goes back to these speeds.

  • pedropeter Peter Brown (@pedropeter) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried that number relentlessly for four days!!! Your company are an absolute joke! Shocking service and can’t WAIT for the day I can FINALLY cancel my contract!!

  • WordsmithJacky Wordsmith Services (@WordsmithJacky) reported

    @virginmedia No we can’t it says that there are problems in our postcode, but no estimated fix time, and this has been going on for over five days now. Please advise as to fix time, as this is causing us a great deal of problems with working from home et cetera. Thank you.

  • Tonichaxxx ✌Tonicha✌ (@Tonichaxxx) reported

    @virginmedia And yet I saw the call offers on your social media, must have been another technical difficulty given you have so many. So what are the current response times for the text and phone service? Baring mind I am still trying both with no luck.

  • pa1189 pa1189 (@pa1189) reported

    @virginmedia Speedtest on iphone, macbook, wireless. Downdetector says Chingford E4 has trouble.

  • Flexicoder Paul (@Flexicoder) reported

    Love it, cancel Virgin Media, they take one last payment. Funny they take the money straight from the bank, but send me a cheque. Technology is amazing

  • TracyWoodley4 Tracy Woodley (@TracyWoodley4) reported

    @virginmedia @mizznansea I'm the same been tryingto speak to somebody for 10 days now got put on hold then they hung up its disgusting don't mind taking our money but can't answer the phone also had £40 put on my phone bill trying to actually speak to @virgin media very poor customer service

  • nats_ford Shel F-K (@nats_ford) reported

    @virginmedia I am speaking to you. This is not my fault. I have the proof. How about you get someone from your cancellations team to call me to cancel. Every time I call I get passed from team to team trying to give a better deal. This shoddy service and you wonder why people want to leave?
