    Only 3 months until i can get rid of @virginmedia awful internet even worse customer service!

  • bjwgorman Ben Gorman (@bjwgorman) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Always but it makes no difference. There have been issues where I live since the start of lockdown. I have made a complaint but it’s gone no where.

  • walsallmatt WalsallMatt #76TottersLane (@walsallmatt) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    DEAR VIRGIN MEDIA! SORT YOUR **** OUT YOU BUNCH OF TOSS RAGS!!!!

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yep just says problem in my area. Not helpful and is getting to be a pain tbh

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Yes there's no issue on the checker. The connect app says it's fine except for a few times it's said the connection is poor. But 1mb some nights is ridiculous...

  • Neil_Churchard Neil Churchard (@Neil_Churchard) reported from Solihull, England

    Wow just had the worst customer service from @virginmedia can’t say I’ll be staying a loyal customer at this rate 😤

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Still having issues. Was on hold for 1 hour 20 yesterday too and also got cut off...😑

  • mraymond68 Mark (@mraymond68) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I have spent over 3 hours on the phone to you trying to get my broadband sorted and SIMON decides to cut me off!! Great customer service!! 😡

  • Stanton_J John Stanton (@Stanton_J) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia help required, #customerexperience #badcustomerservice waiting for a call back since 1pm yesterday, Six times complained about the issue in last year each time told it will be sorted and it isn’t.... Do you want this customer or do you want to lose another to @skytv

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia As per last message it says problem in area. It’s back working now (see time of initial mail). 4th time this week it’s been down for prolonged periods of time. Not good

  • David_Preece David_Preece (@David_Preece) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yet again my internet is down, just had half service for 2 months and it worked for 10 days now gone again... yet you still take full payment out my bank, I see this a theft...

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    This is the exact reason I use the web chat!! To ensure conversation is saved on screenshots! So far today @virginmedia have been completely useless! Want me to pay for a service I'm not getting and they dont know when I will be able to get again

  • TheRamblingElf Richard (@TheRamblingElf) reported from Birmingham, England

    @AksTailor @virginmedia When I had some issues like that I haggled a month or two of free Internet from Virgin until the issue was resolved. Convincing them to do that took an infuriating number of phone calls but it was a satisfactory outcome, I've stuck with them.

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Not gonna keep calling. I also won't be paying for a service you guys can't be bothered to give me.

  • cybilrat Jennie O (@cybilrat) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    In these times where working at home essential @virginmedia one week before anyone can fix my internet which was fine before your maintenance

  • ChrisImms I.Am.Chris.Imms (@ChrisImms) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia any chance of some customer service? Installation booked for last Friday, engineer didn't show up... twice I've called and been hung up on. Complained via email, no response. Anyone want to tell me what's going on?

  • VickyBloor2 Vicky Bloor (@VickyBloor2) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia any updates on internet connection in the Midlands 5 hours down now 😡

  • meejahoar Lizzie_Bee🕷🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇬🇧🦄⚫️ (@meejahoar) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. Note that the chat with NL was the culmination of six weeks of trying to contact Virgin Media by phone, text and email. Now been two months without this issue being resolved. I await an urgent update by email as promised.

  • paulsilm paulslim (@paulsilm) reported

    @virginmedia called customer service twice since 9 am. Both times I got cut off. Should put your WiFi service. Now I have to pay for a 2nd provider so I can work

  • The_Bee_Of_Life Just A Little Bee That’s All. (@The_Bee_Of_Life) reported

    I’m so sick of wasting every waking moment of my time that I’m not at work, sitting on hold with @virginmedia how are you ever supposed to get anything else done, when ALL of your time is spent on hold, trying to fix a companies shitty admin for them! Absolutely ridiculous!

  • Raw0909 Rich Weetman (@Raw0909) reported

    @virginmedia What resolution, 'education given?' If I call it costs me, nearly £7 for one call on the last one. I got given a SIM I don't want or need, and someone has tried calling me on that.

  • The_Bee_Of_Life Just A Little Bee That’s All. (@The_Bee_Of_Life) reported

    @virginmedia There in lies the problem. I’ve been on hold with that exact number for over an hour (I still am) and I have done this every day for the last 3 days in order to try and speak to somebody. ALL of my time before I go to work is spent on hold with you! Do you have a callback service

  • Alexbcfc94 Alex Marsh (@Alexbcfc94) reported

    @Raw0909 @virginmedia Good luck getting anything sorted with those idiots. Been chasing them for months as I can’t watch any tv on one of there boxes I have. Never sorted anything, always charge full bills & only talk to you when you refuse to pay your bill but require full payment first before

  • Alexbcfc94 Alex Marsh (@Alexbcfc94) reported

    @Raw0909 @virginmedia They’re willing to talk about your problems, rather then there lack of payment. Even once you do pay, they put you on hold for another department that don’t answer.. Best off cancelling anything you have with them and going somewhere new mate

  • moo_rella moo (@moo_rella) reported

    @virginmedia it has been Nine months since COVID outbreak, lots of companies have managed to get their service back to the level it should be. with virgin media it is impossible to speak to anyone

  • ChrisFalknerC Chris Falkner (@ChrisFalknerC) reported

    @virginmedia CUT OFF AFTER AN HOUR WAITING ON HOLD! 2nd TIME THIS WEEK, TOTAL OF 5 HOURS ON HOLD IN A WEEK! NOT GREAT SERVICE FOR A NEW CUSTOMER.

  • willy86d willy86d (@willy86d) reported

    @virginmedia I had a total loss of service for 9 days in November and was told I was only entitled to £9.50 credit on my account yet your website states £8 per day is this correct
