    @virginmedia I spent an hour on my mobile to Virgin today as landline isn't working. Spoke to three different people and, finally they told me it was a hardware issue with my phone, not the line. I have borrowed two phones from neighbours and they don't work either #virginmedia

    @virginmedia the company that doesn’t give a **** about your complaint. Can’t be bothered to resolve your complaint and provides no avenue to complain.

  • ultimate_girls Ultimate Girls (@ultimate_girls) reported from Birmingham, England

    Cancelling my broadband with @virginmedia after ridiculous price increases every month. Cannot believe how RUDE the guy on the phone was when I told him I still wanted to cancel. Absolutely shocking attitude .. made my decision to leave SO much easier!!

  • ja2xarnie JArnie (@ja2xarnie) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No issues flagged. Your technical support couldn't find them either. Broadband OK now but no phone line

  • ja2xarnie JArnie (@ja2xarnie) reported from Birmingham, England

    We've also had intermittent Internet today. I can't face another hour being kept on hold. Can you expedite a solution to our problems? #virginmedia

    @virginmedia Hi MH, broadband / Internet in B31 and B45 of Birmingham, has been very terrible. Now, it is just up to those who are responsible, to fix this issue, plus to be open & honest... Cheers, Mr. A. O'Hare

  • John_L_Bird John Bird (@John_L_Bird) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia when I resubscribed to your service for 18 months I requested wifi boosters which I was advised would be posted to me. 3 months on nothing received. Can’t get through on the phone or website chat service.

  • AJhyphenCSdotUK AJComputerServicesUK (@AJhyphenCSdotUK) reported from Birmingham, England

    I will definitely be ending my TV Contract with #VirginMedia at the earliest opportunity, I am sick to death of watching stupid adverts on #DiscoveryTV Channels and it’s the same ones every damn time! If the #TLC Channel didn’t exist then it wouldn’t be so bad! 🤬

    @virginmedia Just received an outbound call to discuss my broadband quality. She then asked me to confirm some personal details to identify me but when I said that I was loathed to do so on an outbound call she hung up. Funny phone call or bad customer service? 🤔

  • Nemean90 Tab Nazir (@Nemean90) reported

    @virginmedia What does as soon as possible mean here and how do you keep missing deadlines that you yourself set? It's been over 2 months now and still, nobody has bothered to try to resolve this. Worst customer service ever.

    @virginmedia Unfortunately this number is for your new build scheme team, and they weren't able to help. Is there a contact number for the team responsible for installing Virgin network infrastructure on existing housing estates?

  • sullivandeej Deej Sullivan (@sullivandeej) reported from Plymouth, England

    You never truly know how awful a company is until you try to cancel your services with them and let me tell you @virginmedia are the ******* worst.

  • FemaleGamer_ D (@FemaleGamer_) reported

    @virginmedia There is 1000% issues in my area every link says there is not & yet when I’ve called I’m told there is and yes the white light is on then it’s off after about an hour then it’s ok again. Your automatic system is telling me there’s an issue so is customer service

  • FemaleGamer_ D (@FemaleGamer_) reported

    @virginmedia TF7 4af over 50 houses have no internet or it keeps switching off. Think customers have a right to know what’s happened for it to be taking this long to fix. Issues since Friday and told next money will be sorted when most households run off internet and work from home!

  • andimccaig andi (@andimccaig) reported

    @virginmedia my Internet keeps stopping working today? Is there problems or?
