  • psanders1976 paul sanders (@psanders1976) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Any chance you firm of cowboys answering the phone to your customers , absolutely disgusting customer service keeping people on hold for over an hour then cutting them off

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hey @virginmedia , can we arrange you to call people back rather than sitting in a queue listening to terrible music and running up mobile bill costs?

  • philtrucker1510 Phillip (@philtrucker1510) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Your customer service is shocking @virginmedia

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia The text messaging team that says it aims to respond within 4 hours but hasn’t responded to me since 11am yesterday? Basically I have no option now but to sit on hold in a queue for 30+ mins to fix a problem you’ve created by not upgrading me. Your customer service is awful.

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia are your call centre staff ***************? Ones just been an idiot to me sounded like he couldn't be arsed while ones just sent me down a line that rings out constantly for 20 minutes. Both asked me different security questions and one flat out refused

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia I probably would have given them the benefit of the doubt and stayed on when moving house but they can **** off. Hope you have better luck next time 👍

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia That's mental, the options for the departments don't make sense either. To change your package, moving home or thinking of leaving us press 4.I press 4,how can I help you, thinking of leaving you, we can't do that here we will have to transfer you to another department.**** off

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Nearly a week after signing up to a new contract with @virginmedia they’ve still not upgraded my speed to what we agreed to. Their Twitter support refuses to acknowledge the issue and my complaint hasn’t been picked up yet. I guess they don’t care once a contract is agreed.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Need to cancel my @virginmedia contract as the price is going up but the only way to cancel is by phone, with up to an hour queue time. Brilliant.

  • jm_donnelly James Donnelly (@jm_donnelly) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Not just me then? Twitter tells me everything I need to know @virginmedia your broadband is unreliable, has been unreliable for weeks & I feel like i’m wasting money. No this isn’t an isolated issue you just need to pull your finger out & stop ruining my evenings its 2020 ffs!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I get the same result hard wired with Ethernet too. It’s not a wifi issue. Also I’m not sure how wifi would decide to ignore an increase in speed and decide to limit itself to the old speed coincidentally. Someone on your end hasn’t enabled the faster speed to my property.

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia Exactly the same happened to me just, even had one of the call centre staff say I would've get a dead line when I told her I definitely will. She still transferred me down a dead line. Got told that changing provider isn't a good enough excuse to leave. Its my choice! 😡

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝🏳️‍🌈Stay Home (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, but each deadline came and went with no resolution and the notification by text didn't happen Anyway, there's no point in this conversation any more as there's nothing you can do except make the company look bad with each answer I give

  • torisprung Tori Sprung (@torisprung) reported from Liverpool, England

    @SkyHelpTeam We haven’t been booked in. Following some quick and informative enquiries, @virginmedia can install a new service in 3days; yet, a @SkyUK engineer can’t come out to us for over a week? When we pay a monthly small fortune, this all feels like terrible customer service

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia There’s no known issues. I shouldn’t have to spend 30 mins on hold trying to get through to you to have an issue corrected that hasn’t been done as part of my contract agreement. Shouldn’t you be able to call customers when you have an agent free who can make outgoing calls?

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝🏳️‍🌈Stay Home (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    So, apparently been without all @virginmedia service ahain today, without warning, when Hubbs was supposed to be working from home. No projected resolution until 10pm; WTF am I paying for? Seriously?? 🤬🤬🤬

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AdeyDawson Adrian Dawson (@AdeyDawson) reported

    @virginmedia Ah, so you mean the same thing that’s kept me waiting for over an hour with nobody responding? ie. I am complaining to you about something that doesn’t work and your 'solution' is not to help but to tell me to do the same thing I’m complaining about..? Wow!

  • gillthurgood Gill Thurgood (@gillthurgood) reported

    @virginmedia Just sent you second tweet and Scott solved my problem when your tech dept couldn’t even be bothered to talk to me. He was professional and a true hero. Cannot tell you how stressed I was and how disappointed that that’s how you treat a customer of 12 years and elderly

  • GayDivorceeUK Jim the Gay Divorcee (@GayDivorceeUK) reported

    @derrickca @virginmedia was with Virgin for nearly 20 years - zero care for keeping customers happy or making sure they provide the service they are sposed to - been with Sky for 2 years and couldn't be happier. Do it!!

  • gillthurgood Gill Thurgood (@gillthurgood) reported

    @virginmedia 1) Didn’t phone within 4 hours so called back. Told someone would phone Sun to make an appt. not satisfactory as husband has heart op next week & we have to isolate. Guy told me to Get a grandchild in to see technician. Obviously no idea what isolation means. Dreadful service.

  • nickneuenhaus Noodle 📷 (@nickneuenhaus) reported

    @virginmedia I just phoned, they said they can't do anything to help as nothing shows up wrong at your end. So am I just meant to live with internet that goes off every half an hour because you can't see a problem on your system?

  • natashakendall_ Kendall 🧸 (@natashakendall_) reported

    @virginmedia I called your customer service who said there was a fault with a cable in the area. They said approx 3pm for a fix. 3:40, no fix. No warnings or anything about these “works” on the website. What’s going on???

  • FK68 Frd (@FK68) reported

    @vmbusiness my moving out process is too slow. Almost 20 days passed and no proper reply from order manager, helpdesk !!

  • gillthurgood Gill Thurgood (@gillthurgood) reported

    @virginmedia 2. Been customer for 12 years so asked to be put through to cancellations as was so upset at such callous treatment. Scott the magnificent in cancellations (Swansea) sorted my router problem out and offered us a more generous package. Thank you Scott - you are a star

  • fluffyblanki Karen Thompson (@fluffyblanki) reported from Llanelli, Wales

    @virginmedia We have had nothing but problems with Virgin and their customer service is appalling. I’m disappointed with such poor service and feel aggrieved that we have to stay with them until the end of our contract! 😡

  • Eleanor34385019 Eleanor Smith (@Eleanor34385019) reported

    @virginmedia I am disgusted with the service I have received - my sky account has not been cancelled when promised by the sales team… over £300 taken when it shouldn’t be. Your customer service is awful, I think anted a resolution and all I get is a letter in 3 working days. 🤯
