Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England@virginmedia That was the original issue, the main thing outside was flooded and corroded (affecting 6 customers in street), so the network team I think came and fixed that, we've had 1 week of working service until today.

Neil Todd (@Neil_Rivelino) reported from Mitford, England@virginmedia @virginmedia still no reply. Have asked 3 times how 2 claim back for our additional browsing fees incurred due 2 #VirginMedia’s incompetence & are ghosted by your ‘customer resolve agent’. great when we spoke to her, was clearly pacifying.Happy to name her & share her email here?

David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England@virginmedia I know my line is spoofed, when an incoming call from a foreign country is giving out I’m not wrong number as I’m being spoofed I am technically aware of this I used to provide support for a very large telecommunications company

Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England@virginmedia wifi speed is disgustingly slow in NE 27

-
Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandWhat will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.
-
NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandTime for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.
-
Paul fletcher (@P25_Fletch) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Hi, I’ve tried to call 5 times to cancel services without success. I’m emigrating in January and I’ve no idea how else to try and contact you. Could someone please DM me so I can pass on phone number to receive a call ?

Biohazardboy (@Biohazardboy2) reported@virginmedia @PeteUK7 Used to punt cable and phones in Virgin media years ago. The bereavement process has always been dogshit. The amount of customers coming into store with this same complaint was insane. This was 2014-2019. Never changed.
-
Pete 😷 #COVIDisAirborne (@PeteUK7) reported@nathanial332 @virginmedia I obviously don't think that. This isn't about me - it's about their systems being woeful. An email from me and nothing changes. They can sweep it away and continue this terrible service. Feedback from hundreds and they might just take it seriously enough to see where there systems could be improved.
-
Bern 🏴 (@KeithClarke1) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia I managed to negotiate a pretty good deal with Virgin. Not quite a new customer deal but pretty good.
-
Mark vix (@Vikk3rs146) reported@Refan80 @virginmedia Makes me sick mate ..they know the issue and just sit there being dumb and stating the obvious
-
GR-Bear🏆x55 (@GR_BEAR1979) reported@virginmedia @PeteUK7 Horrible Company !! Will never go back to them. After their 18 month introductory offer, they turned into absolute ***** !! Even when I left the chased me for all sorts
-
Bill Y (@BillY18201250) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia #Vodafone did this to me with my dad's estate. 2months left on a 24month. Gimme the money and kit back. Then had the cheek to try and upsell the package during the call. I lost it on that one. Think its time #ofcom cracked down on bereavement account closure tactics.
-
Jack 🏴 (@kriegarjack) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia They have the absolute worst customer support these days too. Virgin media was great before they merged with O2. Now they are absolute garbage
-
Mike | Pedro Pé 🦝 | (@MikeF407) reported@virginmedia @PeteUK7 How bad is it that you’ve been community noted, VM? Very bad. Just stop lying now.
-
Free I.T. Stafford (@freeITstafford) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia I tried that trick at cancellation time, and they told me my address will be stored and I'll always be classed as "existing" so would never be eligible for a "new customer" deal. The only way to be a "new customer" is to move house.
-
🇬🇧 FI is awesome 😎 (@GrahamCompton) reported@JamieGBarry @virginmedia Leave. Send back the equipment at their cost. Get your partner to order a new contract via a comparison site. Claim cashback. Been there, done that. Totally nuts customer service by Virgin.
