  • 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.

  • 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

  • JE_Boland Jane Boland (@JE_Boland) reported from Seaforth, England

    Been on hold @virginmedia for 25 mins- now on 3rd call and nearly 2 hours. Shocking customer service. Making my decision to leave that much easier.

  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I am seriously considering changing to another broadband company at the end of my contract because I feel I am not getting the best service from virgin anymore

  • rayjono50 Ray Jono (@rayjono50) reported from Seaforth, England

    Just been holding on the phone for over 30 minutes to speak to a "human being" from Virgin Media" I lost the will to live and hung up. Will call tomorrow to tell them I will be leaving sick of their poor service.

  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia IT says there's no issues in the area, the speed test was done wirelessly. I have the hub in the same place I have always had the modems, hubs in. This issue has been ongoing ever since I received the newest hub. All wires are in tightly so it's not that. I have a new phone too

  • 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 🤬🤬🤬

  • 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 .

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • scoobyjue julie hennelly (@scoobyjue) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia this company is an absolute joke. This is like 6 engineers numerous phone calls’ complaints. Can’t get them to call us back. Paying for service that doesn’t work!

  • 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.

  • flux_blair Alex Downes (@flux_blair) reported from Liverpool, England

    Just had a call from @virginmedia asking me what I use my network for, how many devices I have on the network. Please mind your own business, answers to these questions can be used by OCGs to target my home and only call me if you really have to. Thanks

  • 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.

  • JE_Boland Jane Boland (@JE_Boland) reported from Seaforth, England

    I have been on the phone with @virginmedia for nearly two hours and am no closer to getting my problem solved.

  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia So it's not the devices. As I say it's only since this new hub. All I get when I ring customer services is run these tests etc equipment working fine but there must be some underlying problem somewhere

  • FrankieDJ2012 Frankie DJ (@FrankieDJ2012) reported

    How stupid is @virginmedia - refusing to deal with my Internet issues until my outstanding balance from last month is paid ! I ain't paying **** all until the price of my bill and my constant connection drops are sorted!

  • HughNoble Hugh Noble (@HughNoble) reported

    @SpotifyCares Further investigation suggests this may be a @virginmedia issue. Spotify seems better on mobile data, and other web traffic seems OK.

    @virginmedia is there an email address I can send a complaint to? Can't do it online, as my account is a secondary account). The main account email is my late spouse. I phoned tech team who apparently changed access for the email but still not able to get in.

  • Coq_Au_Ginge Neil Carter (@Coq_Au_Ginge) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Good afternoon. I’ve recently received some calls purportedly from Virginmedia saying that our internet isn’t working as it should and that they need to fix it. Are these calls legitimate please?

  • taniahollies77 Tania Hollies (@taniahollies77) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done all the things ur told to do. Have internet as and when in lounge but none upstairs and no one gives a damn as long as I pay my bill

  • Calvin54139958 Calvin (@Calvin54139958) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. I tried this. I can't do this. The primary email account holder died 10 years ago. I called the tech team to fix this to put my email as primary email. Just keep getting your not main account holder message.
