Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it

Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, EnglandOn hold with @virginmedia for 20 minutes then they decided to cut my call.. great service. 👍
-
Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Yes, it’s the email address that Virgin gave them for setting up the o2 mobile account. I spoke to o2 this morning and they’re having trouble changing it or even sending a text to us for security purposes to the number we are porting because that is now inactive.
-
Paul Corney (@Corney77) reported from Choppington, England@virginmedia 57 mins on a call to be hung up on. Services don’t work correctly and haven’t since Oct. Looking to cancel and no one helping. Disgusting service
-
Nic Johnston 🇺🇦🌻 (@Nicola_Johnston) reported from Mitford, England@virginmedia come on. You just have a good idea from the outage earlier today how long this is going to take. I’m trying to WFH with Covid. @bt_uk how long does it take to switch providers?
-
Carl Walsh (@Carl_Walsh33) reported from Wallsend, England@virginmedia I look forward to the money off the bill for the issues.
-
Paul fletcher (@P25_Fletch) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia You’s really do make it almost impossible to cancel. I’ve called 5 times over 3 days. Either don’t get transferred or get cut off. Looks like I’ll try by writing a letter….

-
Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.
-
EmSatch (@EmSatch) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Continual issues with the credit agreement email not arriving (and yes I checked junk!) It took a webchat and 3 calls to get anywhere near resolving this. Had my dad in his 70s in tears at the stress. I do have to say after almost 2hrs on the phone today we finally 1/

Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia my Mam has been trying to sort her mobile out today. As she can’t remember her password or security answer, she has been unable to access her account to cancel it. Can you let me know what she can do?
-
Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia She has tried but every time they say they can’t help if she hasn’t got her password! Can I chat to someone about this as there are personal issues. I understand that this may be difficult as it is not my account. Thanks

CFC._AKHI😴 (@Yolo123Rana) reported@virginmedia my WiFi is down right nor sure why
-
Shaun (@shauny67) reported@virginmedia @weyland76 From your picture it is not a Virgin issue it's your device, it's not released the network connection from the mobile connection. Best response is to restart to device then will connect stop blaming Virgin
-
PDogTricks (@PDogTricks) reported@ClientsSupTech @missLucy127 Be careful. X is awash with accounts claiming to represent big companies. Only a profile pic given, no website quoted. DM supposedly to identify a customer may in fact be phishing for personal details. If @virginmedia cared they would report such accounts, get them closed down.

Ronald Johnson (@RonaldJ91363263) reportedTired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_World_Iptv13 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies
-
steveo (@fluffybubbles73) reportedIf you are ever thinking about changing internet providers , unless it’s the only one left in the world never ever get @virginmedia it’s customer service is worse than awful
-
Faisal A. Qureshi (@f_a_q) reported@virginmedia @Stsantek Their piss poor customer service is why I left. Absolutely no respect to long time customers.
-
nico 🏁 (@bombdiggy__) reported@theashrb They all read of a script. If Customer wants A then take this step to see if you can offer them B instead. I hate O2/virgin media
-
✦Kael✦ (@SulKalra) reported@JackHansenFIT @drunkandcoding @InternetH0F You are aware that many companies take multiple measures to make it hard to cancel a subscription right? For example in the uk, virgin media is under fire for multiple cases of them actively blocking customers from cancelling their broadband so they could switch to something else
-
keith jones (@keithdavidjones) reported@virginmedia hi my internet service has been down since this morning tried getting in touch but no joy
-
Holli (@HolliCarden) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK This is why I’m happy that Virgin Media are being fined millions of pounds. Their customer service is disgraceful.
