  • John_B58 John B (+) (@John_B58) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia My service hasn’t been down for days, it’s concerning that you don’t know that and so hardly surprising you can’t say when it’ll be back!

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

    @SkyHelpTeam I’m on Facebook Messenger and three times I appear to have been passed around to another agent, three time’s being asked to provide my name and info. Then get told someone will be with me. This is really poor customer service. Come back @virginmedia, all is forgiven.

  • andrewmoss76 andrew moss (@andrewmoss76) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia btsport 2 no signal missing the match here get it sorted

  • CRMann78 NYPD Blue (@CRMann78) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Been with Virgin for 5 days of dreadful customer service, how can a mobile set up result in loss of all subscribed tv channels, held in queue for over an hour is the norm, will be cancelling my contract due to this total mismanagement #VirginMediaSucks

  • John_B58 John B (+) (@John_B58) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia @NorthernOaf Feel free to look in to my non-existent service.

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

    @virginmedia I’ve just asked for all calls relating to my complaint over the past two years. You said no. So now I do a complaint against you with ico. I believe you will get a fine. Sorry.

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Oh don’t tell me to switch it off and on again.... there is no service wether it’s on the checker or not.. can’t be arsed searching for something I already know ... no virgin, I’m oot

  • John_B58 John B (+) (@John_B58) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia 6pm is what you always seem to say, it’s lazy customer service and not very helpful at all to your current customers.

  • davetarl Dave Tarleton (@davetarl) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi RCG, I say hours, was just short of an hour! All sorted now. My gripe is there should be a cancel/leave option on the website saves ringing up and waiting when you are leaving no matter what.

  • awesome_walls Steve Wall (@awesome_walls) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia you may have faster network speeds but if you don’t improve your router network range I’m going back to @BTCare at the end of my contract!

  • phanleyphotos Paul Hanley Photos (@phanleyphotos) reported from Prescot, England

    Moved from @virginmedia to @SkyUK but phone number hasn’t moved. @virginmedia say it’s possible to still port it and the response from @SkyUK - we don’t know how to do that, hang up and try to speak to someone else after 3 hours on the phone 🤬🤬🤬

  • MrCRichardson Craig Richardson (@MrCRichardson) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia help help what do you need to do to get help from virgin media..😡😡😡😡

  • turnerjaksquin Jacqueline Turner (@turnerjaksquin) reported from Runcorn, England

    What a totally diabolical service @virginmedia 41 minutes and still not got sorted 😡 Now going to cancel our tv & phone package with you. You’re a joke. And will cancel my direct debit and make YOU wait 😡😡

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia @LadyHorkins Standard response from a truly shit company who tell lies and say an 82 yr old’s husband ordered sky films after he’d been dead for 9 months then deny any wrong doing in their internal enquiry. Then provide what I can only describe as a piss poor service ... don’t buy virgin

  • HenseyP pet hen (@HenseyP) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Yes virgin media website is down ,and quick pay site on virgin media is a scrambled thing ,tried 4 times now ,still scrambled ,but now keeps saying I need to sign in ,but won't accept the sign in ,keeps wanting me to enter security question then just signs out automatically .

  • turnerjaksquin Jacqueline Turner (@turnerjaksquin) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia Hmmmm thought that might get your attention. Still took you 2 hours to reply though 😡 You used to be the best customer service. Not anymore. 55 minutes is not acceptable.

  • markfrobi Mark Robinson (@markfrobi) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is abysmal. I am fed up of chatting to a robot or someone in india repeatedly asking me the same questions and getting absolutely nowhere. 3 engineer visits, many phonecalls, online chats (some not even answered) and still got nowhere.

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had no service all day as have other people in the street.... not the first time I’ve had to sit on the weekend and miss my team live on tv for which I pay a good deal of money for, I don’t need to check a checker to tell me your service isn’t working

  • HenseyP pet hen (@HenseyP) reported from Seaforth, England

    @ANIM3TA @virginmedia Doing it to my sister been charging her for all Bollywood showcase along with box nation , only found out about it this past month ,phoned up to say she has never known she had them ,never viewed ,, refusing to cancel them off ,won't listen or nothing ..appalling virgin

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia This is the 6th “complex” issue that’s happened during weekends this year! and countless other days ..... and that’s why I called yesterday to cancel, your service is obviously not fit for purpose and you have the cheek to put the price up too
