    @virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

  • JeffsW0rld Jeff’s World (@JeffsW0rld) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Please sort your complaints team out.... I’ve been promised a resolution numerous times over the last few months and still nothing. what a complete embarrassment they are.

  • SafcJamieG Jamie (@SafcJamieG) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia They raised a complaint and nothing was done about it, they probably didn’t even listen to the call where I was sold the product, if they did it would have been dealt with

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Wish virginmedia could do something about all the scam calls, I am an virginmedia customer and we are receiving. Had about 30 scam calls just this last week.

    @OfficialTracieB @virginmedia Awful awful company with terrible cust service. I vowed never to go with them again after I left. I’m also taking steps to leave 02 mobile after many many years die to them having now merged with Virgin. I hope you get this resolved Tracie 🙏

  • jph98 Jon Holloway 📫 (@jph98) reported

    @virginmedia I tell you what - I’ll post the entire chat to twitter and leave people to make their own mind up. Service cancelled. Finally.

  • Boroboy1980 Boroboy1980 (@Boroboy1980) reported

    @virginmedia *************** out of my parents. Horrible company. Thought you were doing away with the old TiVo boxes?

  • Thisgirl862969 Hannah (@Thisgirl862969) reported

    @virginmedia I managed to ring it took an hour in total. It was showing a stability issue. I rebooted a second time and we have been on no problems since. 🤞no more issues

  • jakki27954462 jakki (@jakki27954462) reported

    @virginmedia what a joke trying to talk to one of your staff on WhatsApp is just as bad as trying to explain on phone am so sick of this

  • Veganforever67 Vegan join a union (@Veganforever67) reported

    @virginmedia I really don't call it customer service I call it people's nightmare

  • JosephCosgrove7 Joseph Cosgrove (@JosephCosgrove7) reported

    @virginmedia Mustafa (South African sounding accent) has now cut the customer off. They await a call-back with limited confidence in @virginmedia to deliver such a service

  • bostonthecatfn prm bostonthecat (@bostonthecatfn) reported

    @NoblePracServer @virginmedia my internet is really bad help

  • HedleyHarrison Hedley Harrison 💙 (@HedleyHarrison) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t want to raise a formal complaint, it’s pointless. Why doesn’t somebody from VM contact me directly, maybe a dm on here or an email, to sort out the latest issue? Your records should show that we’ve had a lot of exchanges with Bethany recently. And, my name is Hedley.

  • NatThompsonPho Nat Thompson (@NatThompsonPho) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Cld however I was told they can’t change my direct debit until after 18th. All I want is both Broadband & Mobile on 14th. Surely as a customer (owner of the accounts) passes (security measures) but isn’t able to something very basic… there’s something seriously wrong!! help
