  • piggin_shazza sharrondarnell (@piggin_shazza) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia Your customer service is absolutely garbage how many people am I expected to speak to and how long do i have to wait to get something resolved.

  • Nathann_B Nathan Booth (@Nathann_B) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia how can I put a complaint in about poor customer service and about a technician appointment being cancelled without being told

  • addsimpson Adam Simpson (@addsimpson) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia My broadband is so slow I can't even watch. Etflix without it buffering. Have rebooted and logged onto website to test. Still getting around 5Mbps instead of the usual 200Mbps

  • Sam_Cook_1986 Samuel Cook (@Sam_Cook_1986) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia disappointed to say the least. Customer for 5 years, out of contract, bill is £120 a month, Phone up to renew and negotiate, no offers. Despite Amazon being a new competitor for sports and the mobile experience being infinitely better with them. Package cancelled.

  • steveeades Steve Eades (@steveeades) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia poor customer services this evening, on hold for over an hour to only be cut off. Clearly not interested in existing customers, only new with very expensive monthly costs for the same poor service.

  • anfield_sports Anfield Sports (@anfield_sports) reported from Liverpool, England

    Sick of how bad our @virginmedia WiFi is. Off more than it is on lately.Yet they don't make contact with us to explain why or any money back for lack of service we receive.Couple that up with having to add data on to our phones to make up for it and fair to say we are p*ssed off

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

    @virginmedia Adding a character and then removing that character worked. By pasting the password in, it wasn’t accepting the password regardless. It needed a character to be manually added. I’ve never seen that before on any password fields on any other site, seems like an API issue maybe.

  • nathanrigby__96 Nath (@nathanrigby__96) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Internet went off last night in the area and it said it would be sorted for 10:30am this morning now the status has changed but still no ones internet is working, rebooting doesn’t help

  • hayleybaker25 Hayley Baker (@hayleybaker25) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia problems again with virgin broadband and phone in my area not good enough.👎

  • RedElectro Red Electro (@RedElectro) reported from Warrington, England

    Well, @richardbranson @virginmedia - been a customer since the Telewest days, but the broadband service is almost unusable now. I don’t know what’s going wrong, but you’re going to start losing customers rapidly, if you don’t get this sorted.

  • kingsnoots Chris Sudworth (@kingsnoots) reported from Golborne, England

    Same garbage service from @virginmedia. Don’t bother activating it, you can have it back 🙄

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

    @virginmedia Nope. I have username already selected to my email address, password filled in on both fields, security question drop down selected and answer given in the field, and date of birth drop downs all selected. There’s nothing else I can select or that hadn’t been filled in now.

  • Samanth32789588 #hellomynameis Samantha Miller (@Samanth32789588) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No there isn’t so please message me privately to get this problem fixed ASAP-thank you

  • HazelHendriksen hazel hendriksen (@HazelHendriksen) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia I need some technical help as my equipment is faulty. Tried all the resets and followed advise but box keeps going into standby. Also not been loading any tv planner or what’s up next for weeks. The box is over 7 years old. Think a technician would be helpful

  • Billzy79 Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England

    @rteifler @virginmedia We have been a loyal customer for many years 👍😎

  • gordonturner71 Gordon Turner (@gordonturner71) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Your customer service is shit and thankyou for destroying my driveway, Iam sorry I took out my broadband with you now. Cant wait till it finishes.

  • K__Books Kayleigh {K-Books} (@K__Books) reported

    @virginmedia No it hasn’t taken place. I got through and they said there was an issue with the computer and they needed to reboot it and I’d get an immediate call back! That has not happened. I don’t have time to sit on hold for another hour! I just want to cancel our broadband with you!

  • lordofthedarts1 Michael Flatley (@lordofthedarts1) reported

    @Yuz6Yusof @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp Sounds very similar to my issue. They ended my contract accidentally early. Offered my renewal then error stopped it happening twice. Said they would call me back today, nothing. Oh because they set up my o2 before my virgin it means I've now had to pay for o2 when still in...

  • darrencregg1 Darren Cregg (@darrencregg1) reported

    @virginmedia I have been trying to contact you for 2 hours - on hold for an hour twice but cut off both times after an hour. Shocking service. Looks like I'll be searching for a new provider.

  • EmmaK90 Emma (@EmmaK90) reported

    @virginmedia I get that you’re busy but…two entire days on hold? I either need a new deal or to cancel because my current deal expires in a few days

  • Stephen31209501 Stephen Dunning (@Stephen31209501) reported

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract within the 14 day cooling of period . How do I do this ? I have been waiting 24 hours on Whatsapp now. I’m not happy !

  • andrewbissette Andrew (@andrewbissette) reported

    @virginmedia So... What do I do? I'm away next week, so if they attempt redelivery I won't be there. I can't contact them, you can't contact them, why do you use such a shockingly poor delivery service?

  • catfarm42 Louise Bennington (@catfarm42) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, the service status for my address, says "no known issues".

  • AFCBdave Dave Stone (@AFCBdave) reported

    @virginmedia @ALANCOPE24 I’m very pleased Alan has cancelled. Perhaps if more Alans cancelled their orders when you fail to resolve your delivery issues your senior managers might take notice and realise that cheapest isn’t always best

  • andrewbissette Andrew (@andrewbissette) reported

    @virginmedia No - it comes up blank with a banner across the top saying their customer service is unavailable. I intend to keep trying, naturally.

  • leoringer Leo Ringer (@leoringer) reported

    Every 18 months it takes about 2 hours of playing phone tennis between @SkyUK and @virginmedia before one capitulates and produces the offer which is broadly comparable with the new customer deal they pretend to refuse to give. Huge waste of time. @donotpay please fix!
