Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Whitley Bay, EnglandHello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.
-
Neville Lishman (@NevilleLishman) reported from Durham, England5 hrs now. Just rude @virginmedia just rude. Clearly little of your astronomically charges is spent on your customer service department. It's a recruitment Sargent for @skytv

Alvin TX Fernandez (@allymcgeorge) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia hi I need to cancel an engineer appointment but clearly you've made this difficult to do. Any thoughts?
-
Paul fletcher (@P25_Fletch) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia You’s really do make it almost impossible to cancel. I’ve called 5 times over 3 days. Either don’t get transferred or get cut off. Looks like I’ll try by writing a letter….

Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, EnglandYe gods, @virginmedia customer service is beyond terrible. An hour trying to resolve a "phantom calls" issue last night which now needs an engineer visit, and spotted that a direct debit is in an incorrect name but this can't be changed via WhatsApp chat and needs *another* call.
-
Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Internet connection is intermittent in NE34, has been since at least Saturday. Connection drops at random. Have just restarted router again as I'm working from home & need to be online, no idea how long this will last. Not the only one having issues.

Michael Taylor (@mickeywhizz) reported from Newburn, England@markcatchlove @virginmedia Pleased it’s not just me Mark.

Stewart Neilson ⚒ 🇬🇧 (@HaveringHammer) reportedI’ve just been given Netflix ( I know I’m late to getting it ) by VirginMedia. The first show I’ve started watching is Breaking Bad ( I know I’m late to watching that too ) My question is should I stick with it as I’m 3 shows in and not sure what all the fuss was about yet?
-
outondet (@outondet) reported@virginmedia terrible service...10 says to activate sky movies...still doesn't work.....tried phoning 150 ..still couldn't do it...sort it out @virginmedia.
-
Clinton (@clintontayls) reported@virginmedia guess what another day being disappointed with a partial tv service. I complain using this medium and I get the run around🤬. It’s been ok for 2 years but sky was for 20+ years🤔
-
Cam (@Snickerboi95020) reported@TheMangoDemon @MrDalekJD I think it’s virgin media fibre connection - 2.5gbps up and down, it’s like £70 tho I think
-
Heinz Beanz (@Delveyboy) reported@virginmedia No, they deliberately cut the wire. Why? Because it was the easiest option to get the new customer connected.
-
Bath Supporters (@BathSupporters) reported@KenTrowbridge3 @virginmedia Worst supplier I have ever had - but we have no choice for full fibre here, so it’s literally the best of a bad bunch. I will change when other providers come in at a heartbeat!
-
Paul THORNE (@harrewis) reported@virginmedia brilliant…received new 360 remotes. Zero instructions in box so have to find instructions online. Cannot connect remote to tv after MANY attempts. No way of getting help! Why no clear instructions in the box on how to pair??!!
-
Harry Lester (@harrylester1) reported@virginmedia in the le3 area. No WiFi now for the last 30+ hours. Awful service speaking to a bot and wanting to charge extra to sort it even though prices are already sky high. Speaking of sky might be time for a change
-
Daniel DOA4 (XBOX) & Daniel_DOA4 (PSN) (@Daniel_DOA4) reported@virginmedia my internet broadband and tv are not working! This isn’t the first time this has happened to me!
