    @neeta68 @virginmedia Worst customer service I have encountered is with Virgin media and mobile , needless to say I am no longer one of their customers, good luck

  • Wardixo Jonathon Ward (@Wardixo) reported from South Shields, England

    Shoutout to @vmbusiness who after 5 days told me to reset my router and have now told me they will simply continue to monitor the problem. No stream until NationWars now where we pray it’s going to be better.

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia This lithium service you use is to get people off social media. It obfuscates and is unable to resolve anything. I'll take my chance in the legal system and with independent ombudsman.

  • ktowers74 Karen Towers (@ktowers74) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia my internet isn't working in NE25, are you having issues in this area 😥

  • Ne31phil Phil Robinson (@Ne31phil) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia disabled relatives who are without a phone for the second time ina month.they have a nurse call system that needs working phone line. No engineer until tomorrow. raised a complaint told some one will call non working phone. If no response complaint closed.

  • TaylorBurgen93 Taylor (@TaylorBurgen93) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia your customer service team is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard! Routers not working switch off then back on... it’s broken I can book an engineer for Saturday....

  • barbarafoggo Barbara Foggo (@barbarafoggo) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Wow @virginmedia amazingly poor customer services on many levels. Not your best moment @richardbranson

  • neosalad neosalad (@neosalad) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Nice one @virginmedia I've missed all the 2nd half of the match now. No BB, no Tivo. And your still billing me a higher rate than was agreed when I did the tests which say no issues in my area. Tried resets.

  • neeta68 Anita Whelan (@neeta68) reported from Gateshead, England

    @Davidwillough19 @virginmedia After another 22 minutes and explaining it all again, calmly and politely I may add, the other person has hung up, unbelievable! @virginmedia can you help me please

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Anyone else on @virginmedia getting “To Be Announced” on virtually every channel. Tried rebooting, switching on and off. Strikes me that VM has gone to shit recently. Loads of channels have gone, close to sacking it off.

  • greav41 Paul Greaves (@greav41) reported from Gateshead, England

    @simonrim @virginmedia Ended up removing them from our lives due to atrocious (being generous here) customer service. Even now they are threatening £130 charge due to them not sending out the box return kit.

  • neeta68 Anita Whelan (@neeta68) reported from Gateshead, England

    16 mins on hold to @virginmedia before I got through to someone who said she needed to transfer me to another department, the recorded message of that department said the number no longer exists and gave me the original phone number to ring! Some customer service that!!!

  • trisgallagher Hot Acid Rhythms (@trisgallagher) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Every single day for the last week my router just turns itself off and starts to update or drops out completely. Paying a lot of money for this service and it just isn’t good enough.

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia your shit broadband and tv service is down again for the third time this week and it’s only Tuesday WTF do I pay you for! I bet I don’t see a refund for what you don’t deliver 😡

    @virginmedia @SuperbSabatini I ordered it online, I got a confirmation email on the 31st October, it was due to arrive on the 10th November and it never turned up. I phoned and was told someone had ordered me one, but I've never received an email telling me one is on the way.

  • MrJasonAlex Jason Alexander (@MrJasonAlex) reported

    Virgin media is ******* useless 😡 How can one company have the same issues time and time again 🤨

  • Cat_Walker1983 Cat Walker (@Cat_Walker1983) reported

    @virginmedia hi guys, so where I live, fibre and Virgin has recently just become available. I know the package Virgin offer is fantastic...shame though that the engineers who laid the fibre damaged our garden wall, left a mess in the street and were generally terrible #nothankyou

  • EmptyWxllets_ Sinead🌹 (@EmptyWxllets_) reported

    New drinking game; take a shot every time there is a @virginmedia outage

  • Cat_Walker1983 Cat Walker (@Cat_Walker1983) reported

    @virginmedia Not sure who i need to speak to. I actually thought it was a different company to Virgin so had a go at them.......turns out they've never been in the street so it was Virgin.

    @virginmedia customer service Is totally useless as I have been on hold for over and hour and then got cut off, there help bot is about as much use as a chocolate teapot as well. Think it’s time to leave and find a different supplier,
