    Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia are up there with the worst companies for customer service. Their IVR is infuriating, they hang up on you when you do manage to get through and then tell you there is no way to make a complaint ! @Ofcom do you regulate these clowns 🤡

    @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

    Saffy Saffron(i will be a writer 1day🤞🏼🤞🏼 ) (@saffysaffron) reported from Wrose, England

    @Riz1Rehman @shuhel_miah86 @virginmedia They charge enough through the nose for a rubbish service. Might as well use pigeon post. It would be faster

  • AndyHiggs1
    Porrohman (@AndyHiggs1) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @sky_support We have the full Sky Sports package on our Virgin Media box. How much would the cost come down by us getting rid of the F1 channel as I prefer watching paint dry. If it's worth it the golf one could go the same way as I only watch the football and cricket ? Ta

    Ashley Hirst (@ashleyhirst15) reported from Bradford, England

    @skytv are proper jokers account due for renewal and only offered to knock it down by £7 per Month... That's the £7 increase they put on... Virgin media can get same package for £30 cheaper!

    @virginmedia is there an issue in LS2 7LY area. It’s never great but .9mb download isn’t very 4G

  • suellen2623
    sue ellen draper 💙🇺🇦💛 (@suellen2623) reported from Leeds, England

    @O2 and @virginmedia should be ashamed of themselves. 10 tickets per customer is not right. Their loyal honest customers once again miss out thanks to the greedy. As for the websites complete joke should have been prepared for this!!!! #peterkaytickets

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I do need assistance over why the 4G backup didn't kick in when I had an outage last week but I've raised that with you already, I hope

  • Mcollinson72
    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

  • andy_english
    Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

  • jmyorks
    Just Music Yorkshire 🎵 (@jmyorks) reported from Garforth, England

    @virginmedia do I get an award. Nine hours and counting on chat just clocked up and not one inch forward despite being passed from one wrong department to another when asked for customer services at 9.05am and have been through every department but then

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    @virginmedia I've just wasted 55 minutes of my life trying to talk to your 'customer services' dept. Both the staff members I spoke to could barely communicate in English, and the line kept breaking up... until it died altogether. Wasted time, no resolution, and huge frustration. You're supposed to be a COMMUNICATIONS company! What am I expected to do now? Go through that same shambolic exercise again?

  • TheJamieFriery
    Jamie Friery (@TheJamieFriery) reported

    @virginmedia any particular reason why I received no response from your executive team for 2 days? Must say, level of customer service is appalling and I think maybe I'd be better off with @SkyUK

  • jackgilpo
    Jack Gilpin (@jackgilpo) reported

    @virginmedia our broadband has been going down at the same time every day for well over a week…it’s usually fixed within a few hours but are you ever going to notice the trend and fix it properly? Not ideal when working from home!

  • MrAdz259
    Adz (@MrAdz259) reported

    @virginmedia I was informed by a customer service rep, that my service would be disconnected on April 16th, after notifying on March 16th, that I had switched providers via one touch switch.

    @ifeeltheneed_ Mine has been offline for the last two months, had an upgrade of virgin media that came with a new WiFi connection. That coincided with my surgery, managed to have the new hub up & running with some help but haven’t been able to access the solar inverter to reset so far.
