  • Joninwhite Old and Gold (@Joninwhite) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @wickwarwolf @btsport One hour and a half wait on the phone today to cancel sports package on Virgin Media. If I want to add it back on it would take 2 minutes online. #virginmedia

  • ManStickCar Louis @ MyBusyMind (@ManStickCar) reported from Birmingham, England

    @VirginMobile @virginmedia proved to me that they don’t do customer service. We waited a month for a phone sent to a wrong address, & then had to collect it ourselves. We also proved the phone had a fault from the start, but now we’ve been told to claim on insurance and pay £125!

  • ChrisPresslie Chris (@ChrisPresslie) reported from Wednesfield, England

    If im hard wired and im port forwarding it should ******* work phoned up only to be told "oh we can't help with port forwarding" @virginmedia

  • violah31 Carol Herbert (@violah31) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia has terrible customer service. I’ve spoken to 3 people and still can’t leave #cancelation #held_hostage 😡

  • ChrisPresslie Chris (@ChrisPresslie) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Ive im hard wired and im port forwarding it should ******* work phoned up only to be told "oh we can't help with port forwarding" @virginmedia

  • BigBraLady Karen Tomalin (@BigBraLady) reported from Dudley, England

    Intermittent broadband, no phone line and unable to log into the @virginmedia on line account as we don’t exist. Puts the tin lid on A completely crap day.

  • Samyg1 Samantha 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Samyg1) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes it’s valid and in use as I’ve been using on my mobile phone. The issue I had was because I needed to access on laptop and couldn’t remember password

  • evansaviography Andrew Evans (@evansaviography) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia @siandsal Well here in Solihull 120miles north no one on Virgin has a mobile signal either!!!

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

    Oh No my internet isn't working and I only have a bit off data left. thank you @virginmedia its probably the worst time for you to break when we all have to stay in..

  • EgglestonMathew Mat 🏳️‍🌈 (@EgglestonMathew) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia That’s says no known issues. So I think there’s an issue with that too. Broadband doesn’t appear on any searches it’s like it’s disappeared . There’s an engineer coming tomorrow

  • violah31 Carol Herbert (@violah31) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to tell @virginmedia but the process is so complicated I was losing the will to live. Staff #rude and #persistent

  • villandrew Andrew Horton (@villandrew) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Your customer service is always shite

  • Caitlin__Wilson Caitlin Wilson (@Caitlin__Wilson) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia is actually the worst. Imagine paying money for WiFi which goes off multiple times a day and is slow even when it’s running well🥴

  • PhilTonks2 Phil Tonks (@PhilTonks2) reported from Dudley, England

    @alexfenlon @TalkTalk @virginmedia I sincerely hope you don't end up with a fault. I was with @TalkTalk for many years until a fault last year. Quite honestly the worst company of any description I have ever dealt with. Totally failed to resolve, now much happier on @virginmedia

  • goingabitgrey John McKeon (@goingabitgrey) reported from Birmingham, England

    @brumcyclist It’s a good haggling tool when trying to get the price down with virgin media

  • Lysander_16 Lysander (@Lysander_16) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia For now everything seems to be okay. Just frustrating when you're trying to stream and the internet does down for 7 hours.

  • sjbanks47 Simon Banks 🦁 (@sjbanks47) reported from Brownhills, England

    @virginmedia once again your online service status tells me there are no known issues in our area. I call to report I still have the intermittent fault I have had for over a week and told there is a fault in the area which may not be fixed until 12th March.

  • VHoszko Vadic Hoszko (@VHoszko) reported from Dudley, England

    Country being on lockdown....no problem, in the garden tending to the fruit and Veg, keeping safe and isolating....no problem, going shopping for my dad who’s 93....no problem, not being able to watch Netflix because Virgin media is ****..big problem @virginmedia @richardbranson

  • PhilTonks2 Phil Tonks (@PhilTonks2) reported from Dudley, England

    @alexfenlon @TalkTalk @virginmedia If they mess me about, I'll simply move. I was lied to, ignored and never resolved with @TalkTalk - and they have the cheek to send me rubbish about how they "miss" me. Try doing anything with 0.3mbs.

  • rich_pemberton Rich Pemberton (@rich_pemberton) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia land line and internet is fine however we have 2 mobile phones and neither can make a call can you confirm if there is an issue as there is no answer from the call centre

  • snd80 stacey yeo (@snd80) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, the appointment is for cable replacement but I’ve been told by customer service that you don’t carry cable longer than 16meters and it’s going to take over a month for a longer one to be available bearing in mind I haven’t had internet already for a month with 3 children 👎🏼

  • suekeen7 Sue Keen (@suekeen7) reported

    @virginmedia here we go again, installed the hub 5 as per the instructions now no internet no phone. After 2.5 hours finally get through to a person in India and he says it will take 24 hours to be repaired. Absolutely shocking service!!!

  • WhenBite2020 When Bite (@WhenBite2020) reported

    @virginmedia Can you explain why @virginmedia ? Or is the reason greed, so you don't want to? Also how do I challenge this policy, as seems discriminatory to your previous customers. Alternatively let the value be account credit against a new customer setup and we can move on.

  • catgoscovitch 凯特 - Cat Goscovitch (@catgoscovitch) reported

    Appalling customer service from @virginmedia

  • rheiadowns rheia 🖤 (@rheiadowns) reported

    @virginmedia Bun that. Can never talk to a human. Having my pants down every month for basic service

  • mickyrichards27 Micky Richards (@mickyrichards27) reported

    @virginmedia Done all of the help section. Been on phone twice before... I'm ot paying more than I already am for "better wifi" when I was told it would be suitable for my small terraced house...

  • KrochetxKorner Knitting & Knotting, Stabbing & Science (@KrochetxKorner) reported

    @virginmedia would just like to praise the engineer who came today and fixed our box. He was on time, polite and was done within 10 minutes. He rung to keep us updated on how long he would be, and then when he was on his way. Fantastic service 👏

  • AntonBrooksAMB 🔰 Brooks 🔰 (@AntonBrooksAMB) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Why is it taking so long for an engineer to genuinely fix the issue?

  • RicardoSeb101 deadwiggz101 🗿 (@RicardoSeb101) reported

    @virginmedia this is unacceptable, I've had no issues until now. On Saturday I was told by a moron in your employ that the fees would be waived as it's not our mistake. Half an hour later I get a hefty bill. Now I'm being told that it's our fault.

  • ArcherStormFox 🤍🇺🇦💚🇺🇦💜 (@ArcherStormFox) reported

    @virginmedia @HelenRuggles3 We've been waiting 90mins on your message service to talk to someone about closing our account! We're moving to a place that doesn't have Virgin and can't have it set up either. Please can you give us the information on how to do this??
