  • JE_Boland Jane Boland (@JE_Boland) reported from Seaforth, England

    Been on hold @virginmedia for 25 mins- now on 3rd call and nearly 2 hours. Shocking customer service. Making my decision to leave that much easier.

  • John_B58 John B (+) (@John_B58) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia @NorthernOaf Feel free to look in to my non-existent service.

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia @LadyHorkins Standard response from a truly shit company who tell lies and say an 82 yr old’s husband ordered sky films after he’d been dead for 9 months then deny any wrong doing in their internal enquiry. Then provide what I can only describe as a piss poor service ... don’t buy virgin

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had no service all day as have other people in the street.... not the first time I’ve had to sit on the weekend and miss my team live on tv for which I pay a good deal of money for, I don’t need to check a checker to tell me your service isn’t working

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

    @SkyHelpTeam I’m on Facebook Messenger and three times I appear to have been passed around to another agent, three time’s being asked to provide my name and info. Then get told someone will be with me. This is really poor customer service. Come back @virginmedia, all is forgiven.

  • elisanarbs Elisa Narborough (@elisanarbs) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia no internet for two hours now: Wifi light green and base light is flashing green, service status in wa1 area said no known issues, please help!

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Oh don’t tell me to switch it off and on again.... there is no service wether it’s on the checker or not.. can’t be arsed searching for something I already know ... no virgin, I’m oot

  • flux_blair Alex Downes (@flux_blair) reported from Liverpool, England

    Just had a call from @virginmedia asking me what I use my network for, how many devices I have on the network. Please mind your own business, answers to these questions can be used by OCGs to target my home and only call me if you really have to. Thanks

  • WiganpierprAnne Wiganpierpromo (@WiganpierprAnne) reported from Wrightington, England

    @virginmedia I am appalled at the customer service. Trying obtain my last bill from 3 months ago. Can’t be done!!account closed. They never sent packaging to send router back after 3 phone calls I gave up but got charged for it.

  • davetarl Dave Tarleton (@davetarl) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi RCG, I say hours, was just short of an hour! All sorted now. My gripe is there should be a cancel/leave option on the website saves ringing up and waiting when you are leaving no matter what.

  • HenseyP pet hen (@HenseyP) reported from Seaforth, England

    @ANIM3TA @virginmedia Doing it to my sister been charging her for all Bollywood showcase along with box nation , only found out about it this past month ,phoned up to say she has never known she had them ,never viewed ,, refusing to cancel them off ,won't listen or nothing ..appalling virgin

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia This is the 6th “complex” issue that’s happened during weekends this year! and countless other days ..... and that’s why I called yesterday to cancel, your service is obviously not fit for purpose and you have the cheek to put the price up too

  • JE_Boland Jane Boland (@JE_Boland) reported from Seaforth, England

    I have been on the phone with @virginmedia for nearly two hours and am no closer to getting my problem solved.

  • awesome_walls Steve Wall (@awesome_walls) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia you may have faster network speeds but if you don’t improve your router network range I’m going back to @BTCare at the end of my contract!

  • MrCRichardson Craig Richardson (@MrCRichardson) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia help help what do you need to do to get help from virgin media..😡😡😡😡

  • rayjono50 Ray Jono (@rayjono50) reported from Seaforth, England

    Just been holding on the phone for over 30 minutes to speak to a "human being" from Virgin Media" I lost the will to live and hung up. Will call tomorrow to tell them I will be leaving sick of their poor service.

  • HenseyP pet hen (@HenseyP) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Yes virgin media website is down ,and quick pay site on virgin media is a scrambled thing ,tried 4 times now ,still scrambled ,but now keeps saying I need to sign in ,but won't accept the sign in ,keeps wanting me to enter security question then just signs out automatically .

  • CRMann78 NYPD Blue (@CRMann78) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Been with Virgin for 5 days of dreadful customer service, how can a mobile set up result in loss of all subscribed tv channels, held in queue for over an hour is the norm, will be cancelling my contract due to this total mismanagement #VirginMediaSucks

  • phanleyphotos Paul Hanley Photos (@phanleyphotos) reported from Prescot, England

    Moved from @virginmedia to @SkyUK but phone number hasn’t moved. @virginmedia say it’s possible to still port it and the response from @SkyUK - we don’t know how to do that, hang up and try to speak to someone else after 3 hours on the phone 🤬🤬🤬

  • JamesRead78 James Read (@JamesRead78) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia need to chat with someone about lowering my bill £100 per month is getting ridiculous! Tried using the chat function on the app but it's not working

  • whodatdog98 whodatdog98 (@whodatdog98) reported

    @virginmedia I tried calling only to be told my password was incorrect by the operator (it wasnt) and then the call cut out for no reason. Tried messaging over chat and was told construction work is required. Just don't really think its good enough 24 hours before install.
