  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @EmmettGraham @virginmedia Well I can’t say I’m surprised! The other week I was on hold for almost an hour, then was cut off, never actually got through!! Do let me know how you go on.

  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia That doesn’t explain why you said you could help. I already knew where to ring and told you that I had done that many times, to no avail! I doubt that the matter is in hand and that I will ever get the promised call back,but I will certainly let you know!

  • Allenwalkden Woggy (@Allenwalkden) reported from St Helens, England

    @sleepydeeves Yep .@virginmedia broadband and TV down in WA10, it's been flakey for months

  • dizzytix Em (@dizzytix) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia help. My broadband is constantly intermittent. I never go a day without being cut off on one of my devices. When I try to email from the account it says it’s unavailable. How can I get help

  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @EmmettGraham @virginmedia I sympathise with you, can’t get a straight answer from Virgin Media, You’re just passed from “pillar to Post”getting nowhere! such a Dire Company, Customer Service Non Existant! Anybody thinking of joining them should be aware and stay well away!!

    @virginmedia download speeds today have been an absolute disgrace. Usually spot on but last two days struggling to make 20mbps. Joke of a service

  • mrphilliptipton Phillip Tipton (@mrphilliptipton) reported from Haydock, England

  • JustineElleRyan Justine (@JustineElleRyan) reported

    @virginmedia Can you check my on going complaint and give me an update? If not I will be going to ombudsman

  • Char103Official Char103 (@Char103Official) reported

    Honestly sick of the greed and failure to provide great service from @virginmedia always “turn off your router and turn it back on again” THAT DOESN’T FIX THE ISSUE! Our internet keeps cutting out and if it was up to me I’d leave virgin in a heartbeat.

  • crombie_mn Mark Crombie (@crombie_mn) reported

    @virginmedia Great customer service to a new customer. Arranged contract to start yesterday and you were meant to deliver equipment. Waited in all day, and nothing arrived. You contacted us to apologise and say it would arrive today. Still nothing.

  • crawford_iain Iain Crawford (@crawford_iain) reported

    Virgin media. Absolutely shambolic service. So unprofessional. The lady i spoke to…Nadia, utterly embarrassing!

  • TheScottishMike Mike Algie 🕷 (@TheScottishMike) reported

    @virginmedia I think you mean *exploitative* business practice, which preys on those who are too time-poor to switch providers every time. It's disappointing that there is such a great disparity in charges for existing, long-term customers.

  • GroundedTech Dan 🇬🇧🥚 (@GroundedTech) reported

    @RedskullPro Samsung definitely up there for me. Other worst experiences include Virgin Media and Vodafone.

  • Wiessam Wiess (@Wiessam) reported

    @raztweets @agawish @virginmedia My prob is I was already with virgin and ran into this issue when I moved my service to new home. Glad you can use your BT until virgin sort out this mess! Super impressed with BT customer service.

  • NAMF247 NickF (@NAMF247) reported

    @virginmedia Over two hours on the phone to your useless phone team. 6 different people, no resolution,no help. I will be contacting Ofcom tomorrow. You are in breach of contract.

  • Matt_Stavri Matthew Stavri (@Matt_Stavri) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, I will recieve the password reminder in FIVE WORKING DAYS via Post. I am also being informed that if I do not correct the outstanding payments (WHICH HAVE BEEN PAID) I will accrue additional late fees and have my services cut off in FIVE DAYS. Do you not see my problem?
