  • scoobyjue julie hennelly (@scoobyjue) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia this company is an absolute joke. This is like 6 engineers numerous phone calls’ complaints. Can’t get them to call us back. Paying for service that doesn’t work!

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

    @virginmedia You could at least have an option to call back customers rather than keeping them on hold. Again, this is really poor customer service.

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

    So that’s @virginmedia cancelled off and their poor effort at a service. I had more reliable service with dial-up! Now signed up with @SkyUK and hoping they can at least provide me internet that I can use for a day without it going off constantly.

  • leighwynne33 Leigh Wynne (@leighwynne33) reported from Seaforth, England

    @micramanic @virginmedia @ThreeUK I had weeks without it because of box outside. The connection had de-ttached and thats why rounter wasnt pickin up signal

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia As per usual there’ll be no problems in the area, I’ll get told to unplug the box, then you’ll book an engineer for about 5days time, meanwhile the problem magically disappears #badservice

  • rick300 richard caines (@rick300) reported from Leyland, England

    U know it’s bad when the internet on ur phone works better than @virginmedia internet been off now for over 5 hours in leyland

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia strange I read all the posts about Virgin customers ringing up about cancelling services and Virgin offering them a better deal however I ring up and cancel a service with no trouble at all, not even offering a lower price, your loss #virginmedia

  • scoobyjue julie hennelly (@scoobyjue) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia hardly got no service. Rang and complyyet again. Then been told our wiring was wrong and has been for for nearly a year since installed. Gave us excuse after excuse. But still paying full price Engineers been out twice to do new wire. We have put complaint in and

  • BarryWalters7 Barry Walters (@BarryWalters7) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia yet again our home phone line is not working, can you please let me know when I can expect to have it in working order as per our contract

  • 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

  • Alison_hh Alison Hesketh-Holt (@Alison_hh) reported from Leyland, England

    Absoloutley disgusted with @virginmedia been on hold for 2 hours - I'm an existing customer and one agent has hung on me!!! I want to discuss my existing contract with them. How the hell are you supposed to speak to the complaints department or a manager in charge!

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia And this is why I don’t bother calling you for the most part. The service desk where I work are in trouble if customers are on hold for 20 seconds. Virgin are a huge company and can’t afford a call centre where customers don’t have to wait 15 mins (so far) on hold.

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

    30 mins on hold to @virginmedia so far. Absolutely awful customer service. Again.

  • Childwallcable Tony Zeverona (@Childwallcable) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia you have the worst customer services I have ever experienced from being cut off during calls to failure to call back

  • toadfish41 Chris McPartland (@toadfish41) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia hi can you help me sign in been trying to contact customer services for over 2 hrs tonight

  • toadfish41 Chris McPartland (@toadfish41) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi it’s media service I cannot set up an account please help

  • JoelLJelen JoelJelen (@JoelLJelen) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia it’s 2019, your online customer service is so poor and your offline telephone service saw me waiting 15 mins and still in a queue! Given up.

  • scoobyjue julie hennelly (@scoobyjue) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia and still waiting. Internet keeps going off. Can’t leave because still tied into a contract yet we still have to pay for service we can’t use! #joke

  • spuddy1878 Neil (@spuddy1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Two different mobile phones and no joy at all. It’s picking up another WiFi signal from someone else but not from my home.

  • tcurtis47 tracy curtis (@tcurtis47) reported

    @MartinSLewis I have just received my letter re the increase, I currently pay £49.15 and they are increasing it by £15!!! Wtf! @virginmedia guess I'll be leaving then 👊

  • goodnamesgone_ K (@goodnamesgone_) reported

    @RossiTardelli @virginmedia @MartinSLewis 27.2% here, while having an unreliable Hub 3 instead of the Hub 5 stated on the bill & the dated TiVo Box. It’s not RPI + 3.9% if calculated on what they say the full price of the package is, the customer will be billed far more on top of the price they agreed. BT et al use CPI

  • GavinSunley Gavin Sunley 🇬🇧 (@GavinSunley) reported

    @virginmedia trying to pay online and getting API errors either through website or app. Any assistance ?

  • RossiTardelli Barone RossiTardelliAltobelli (@RossiTardelli) reported

    @virginmedia Nice try. Neatly left out that your increases also subsidise your offers to new customers (and yes, I had one of those offers too before you chirp up). Explain the removal of the right to cancel your deal next year if the price goes up.

  • DiggingJCB Matt Coley (@DiggingJCB) reported

    @virginmedia Maybe so but it was widely advertised in the press earlier in the week that rise would be around 14%. Also interesting to see you can immediately jump on a tweet I never even tagged you I but can't answer live chat or the phone without horrendous delays.

  • ewolamme Em 🌙 (@ewolamme) reported

    @virginmedia how do I make a complaint please? I know it’s not your guys fault so if there’s someone who I can talk to that would be great x

  • sarahdisney2011 Sarah (@sarahdisney2011) reported

    @virginmedia Awful customer service. Been trying to speak online with you since yesterday evening and took me 4 attempts to speak with someone on the phone as the line kept dropping. Ridiculous you want me to pay £50 for something a new customer would get for £15. Hello @SkyUK

  • Skipster112 Skip 'Sayid' Hussein (@Skipster112) reported

    @virginmedia worst customer service I have ever come across. Almost 7 hours to get a disconnection agreed. 24+years as a customer and you wonder why we are leaving.

  • woodley_fiona Fee Woody (@woodley_fiona) reported

    So @virginmedia please let me know what you are doing to rectify the broadband issues, when will it be fixed?

  • EveMacd10944854 Eve Macdonald (@EveMacd10944854) reported

    @virginmedia been on hold for over an hour got through and then they said the billing system is down so I can’t pay and close the ******* account. I am so angry
