  • lePhantomPlume le Phantom Plume (@lePhantomPlume) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia It’s ok thanks, one of your team rang me, was extremely rude then hung up.

  • kevmaslin Kev Maslin (@kevmaslin) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia The ideal resolution would have been for VM to return the document as originally promised. We have dealt with other companies in this regard and all have been prompt and professional. Even the DWP accepted a photocopy of the POA. Why VM couldn't is entirely beyond me.

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia I guess it's not your. Problem. After pushing me into a contract with them. I've been in touch with them and there nothing they can do they just want me. To turn my mobile on and off again

  • kevmaslin Kev Maslin (@kevmaslin) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia your treatment of us over a Lasting Power of Attorney issue has been appalling. Your people have actually SHREDDED a document costing hundreds of pounds despite us being told it had been returned. CISAS has been invoked and your CEO will be told . @MoneyTelegraph

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL

  • timhazelwood2 Tim Hazelwood (@timhazelwood2) reported from Bewdley, England

    @virginmedia my dad is a pensioner who has had no TV service for more than a month. We have called numerous times and not had resolution. Can someone please contact me to help sort this out

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Quite possibly the worst onboarding and customer 'care' experience I've EVER had @virginmedia Unfulfilled promises, failure to deliver contract as agreed and now I'm 'lost' in the system and being ignored. I'm left with no choice other than to 'out' you. #CaveatEmptor

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

  • tr0y1291 Troy (@tr0y1291) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

  • redron1975 Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Right then fools. How many times do I need to contact you to tell you how bad our internet is? I am so fed up with this service and wouldn't recommend you to my worst enemy. I cant wait to get service from someone reliable. Clowns

  • mrmjprice Martin Price (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I have been but they couldn’t get a good-enough price and directed me to the self-service page but I get “customer-exclusion” at the end of the URL which tells me to use chat.

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. Well done 👏🏻

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia And this is why, I'll be reporting you to trading standards for fraudulent misselling/misrepresentation and then abdicating ALL responsibility/accountability to resolve. There's no security/DPA issues in you giving me a direct dial number via DM. You just don't want to resolve.

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

  • timhazelwood2 Tim Hazelwood (@timhazelwood2) reported from Bewdley, England

    @virginmedia He has called a few times and I called once. They say there is an issue in the area. He's been without service since July and they said the issue would be resolved on 21st aug. ive been away and it's still not fixed. It looks like an issue with the box to me as a layman

  • jordandodds28 Jordan Dodds (@jordandodds28) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Stop replying to other people’s tweets and just tell me how I can get the internet up to the speed that I pay for / my contract states as a minimum requirement. Otherwise I will cancel.

  • Kimberley88 Kimberley Barnard (@Kimberley88) reported from Papworth Everard, England

    @virginmedia Thanks rung them got no answers but mostly that it sounds like no one is coming and then got hung up on. This sounds like the beginning of us not having the greatest service afterall

  • Baybury Hayley Toyne (@Baybury) reported from Branston, England

    @virginmedia No thanks, I’m done. Literally spent hours on the phone to your customer services and I’ve had enough.

  • jordandodds28 Jordan Dodds (@jordandodds28) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia We just have a Fibre m50 broadband package, no TV. We’ve rebooted several times and this does nothing. Nothing unusual with modem lights, just a very slow connection, 4mbps. Only one device maximum works on the WiFi at a time which isn’t right.

  • terryjordan38 Terry Jordan (@terryjordan38) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia Do you actually have a customer service department

  • dpilks David Pilkington (@dpilks) reported from Wales, England

    @virginmedia Not surprised, showing no service problems. Hmm must be as good as their resolution team - all promises until they’ve got your money then either broken promises or just silence

  • louise_woodman Louise Woodman (@louise_woodman) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I keep calling and it plays the same message saying you knows there’s a fault and you are trying to fix it. The same message since Saturday morning. It offers texts to update but I’ve had no texts even though I’ve put my number in each time I’ve called.

  • Rebekka35194230 Rebekka (@Rebekka35194230) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @virginmedia hi is there a problem with the phone line because I can’t ring out and I am getting texted messages

  • O5BORNE Justin Osborne (@O5BORNE) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Just had a text message from your team to say the Broadband issue is now fixed - it isn’t ! 😡

  • mary1408 Mary(Collins)Cahill (@mary1408) reported from Wicklow, Leinster

    Really thought my broadband woes were over when I switched to @virginmedia but alas Service is worse than ever. 😢😢😢🤬🤬🤬
