  • mizznansea Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England

    @virginmedia I've been having problems with my phoneline and it is currently dead, can't make or receive calls. An engineer came on Friday but its still not working. Charges have been appearing on my phone bill for calls I have not made. This has happened twice since November.

  • MrChips2000 MrChips (@MrChips2000) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I would like to cancel my recent broadband order. I found a better deal.

  • t3xuga 𝒯𝑒𝓍𝓊𝑔𝒶 (@t3xuga) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia with the new price increase it states with don't need to pay any cancellation fees. My contract ends on the Summer, if I were to cancel do I need to pay the remaining months?

  • PIPPAaM Pippa Moss (@PIPPAaM) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia They keep saying an engineer is coming to fix it. It's down again this evening. 😠SE26 4HN

  • mizznansea Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England

    @virginmedia I've been having problems with my phoneline and it is currently dead. An engineer came on Friday but its still not working. Charges have also been appearing on my phone bill for calls I have not made. This has happened twice since November.

  • MSROPER10 S (@MSROPER10) reported from London, England

    @cameraoncaught @virginmedia Have you forwarded this to Virgin media internal complaints? In my opinion Virgin have one of the worst customer service teams around but it may reach someone who can act upon internally.

  • coxychris chris cox (@coxychris) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia why are no one answering your lines all I wanna do is cancel my package

  • mizznansea Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England

    So trying to cancel @virginmedia services and the stalling tactics being used are not cool. If customers want to leave they have every right to do so. Let them go.

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia service just gets worse and worse. 3 days with no TV service whatsoever, and now no Internet either in SE7. It's simply not good enough anymore. Your service has been declining rapidly for over a year. Sort it out please.

  • VenusEnvi VenusEnvi (@VenusEnvi) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!

  • alanburkittgray Alan Burkitt-Gray (@alanburkittgray) reported from London, England

    I have hardly ever heard a good word about @virginmedia service. Why is it so hard to fix?

  • mizznansea Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England

    @TracyWoodley4 @virginmedia @Virgin Their service has certainly gone down hill and this issue with the call centre is a complete farce. If they can't even get their own internal systems sorted as a telecomms company what hope do we have? My contract is up in March and I will defo be leaving Virgin.

  • pauldee74 Paul Dwyer (@pauldee74) reported from Grays, England

  • PIPPAaM Pippa Moss (@PIPPAaM) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia we've had atrocious broadband on SE26 4HN for weeks now, it just keeps dropping out and then coming back. I have just had my bill and I'm not really feeling we should have to pay for the service we've had this month.

  • pinknblue Helen Dickens (pinknblue):) (@pinknblue) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia hello Merry Christmas. If any one is there today so you know 8f the e mails are down as from early this morning it keeps asking me to put in mu password and then not recognising it but won't let me re set either and I can't send or receive any e mails :(

  • willhenrywarren William Warren (@willhenrywarren) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @trickythecat Will affected users get a refund for the lack of service? We haven't had internet for a week.

  • sinozza Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @ThatNickElse @virginmedia Did you get through in the end Nick...I'm having similar problems to you.

  • sinozza Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

  • danmillsdabell Dan Mills-Da'Bell (@danmillsdabell) reported

    @virginmedia Every “resolution” to each complaint raised has said you’ve tried to call me and have written to me. Neither is true, every single time. I’m redirected constantly and problem not fixed. Literally just now internet was down again.

  • Firetaxi David Hamilton (@Firetaxi) reported

    @virginmedia This is a complete and utter joke no WiFi or tv for 2 days. No explanation, no apology and you know what you will just take the money as per normal. Enough is enough!!! Sort this out or we are leaving!!!! Disgraceful service!!!!!!

  • davemabbott1984 Dave (@davemabbott1984) reported

    @dcb38 @StevenKiberton @virginmedia It’s called customer services

  • Curriepeter1 Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Why are virgin media so crap so slow and keeps buffering every day we pay for a service that’s not fit for the purpose

  • JanetOzer3 Jinny (@JanetOzer3) reported

    @virginmedia I am with you until 10 July. I just can't take anymore of the frustration and upset the calls to virgin caused me. What is the point of paying for a service and not getting it? One of your team said I was entitled to a refund another team member said no.

  • 7243emmab Emma Brice (@7243emmab) reported

    @virginmedia hi is there anyway I can get an appointment to fix a landline earlier than Wednesday? 2 elderly customers with no phone line which means there emergency pendants won’t work either?

  • JanetOzer3 Jinny (@JanetOzer3) reported

    @BtSteph @yarrum_leahcim @virginmedia My virgin mobile hasn't worked outside the house for 6 years it displays 'you are not registered to this network' when I try to phone anybody it tells me 'calls to this number are blocked' Broadband stops around 10pm House phone cuts off. Promised repairs, joke!
