-
Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia @virginhelp We have just signed up for a broadband/phone package. We were recommended by a friend. They never gave us a code though as they are a pensioner. We were told to simply give her details in but the operative would not accept. Can we still get a code after?

Being forced to pay £105 a month...

Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Yes I’ve been told this before… yet it never happened when my bill was generated. Let’s see eh..
-
Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England@virginmedia I’d love to hear from how I’m supposed to report an issue with my broadband. You can’t do it via live chat and seemingly not via the phone either as you’re “experiencing difficulties”
-
Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

Jenny Do Nascimento (@jdonascimento) reportedI moved house on August 28th and Virgin Media has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. @Virgin #England
-
Khal (@khal_lfc) reported@Bev2810 @virginmedia I moved to YouFibre as @virginmedia was just too expensive and the service has been appalling over the last year
-
Unainstein (@AstonVillaDoge) reportedSo done with @virginmedia, live chat is useless, offer you absolutely terrible deals 'Your renewal offer will be £15 a month more than you currently pay, despite above inflation cost increases every April and you will receive nothing extra in return. This is our biggest discount'
-
andy spinoza (@andyspin) reported@virginmedia my screen keeps having a giant error message ‘Channel Failed’ over the picture which is actually working! Anyone else having this issue? Usual rubbish Virgin customer service not picking up - waiting over 45 mins now.

Irate_Jobbie (@Irate_Jobbie) reported@AwTroon Many, many years ago, I called virgin media to tell them I was leaving. They asked why, I said you don't offer value for money anymore. Sorry you're leaving but that is the best price, you already have. It was expensive. No problem, bye now. Next day, virgin cold calls me. Asks me to confirm who I am. I said no, you are calling me, you should know. Guy was annoyed as he was phoning to offer me a better deal. I said fine, I'll call the same retentions team I called yesterday to leave and I'll know it's actually virgin. He got angry, said they can't offer discounts, only he could and if I didn't confirm my details, he couldn't give me the offer. I just told him I could no longer do business with virgin due to such poor security procedures. He seemed very angry about the fact I wasn't willing to give personal identifiable information to a stranger cold calling me. Never paid them a penny again.
