    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  • 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

  • HullsGinMan
    Simon (@HullsGinMan) reported from Leeds, England

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

  • Aidan1964
    Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported from Wakefield, England

    @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!

  • rywilnot
    Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported from Darton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

  • Yuz6Yusof
    Md Yuzaiful Md Yusof (@Yuz6Yusof) reported from Leeds, England

    Having been a loyal customer for 4 years with @virginmedia, I have been lied to by customer service. They applied a different package than what agreed on phone. Violation of customer’s right! Rang 3 times since to complain but nothing has been done! Disgraceful @VirginMediaCorp

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

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

  • MatthewJP2014
    Matthew Preston (@MatthewJP2014) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia @O2 what's the point Virgin is as bad as BT I was supposed to have Virgin Broadband & phone installed on Friday got told yesterday it was delayed til December 1st earliest with no reason as to why asked for a 5G router to get me by til then was put on hold for 20 mins then cut off.

    Christine Pilkington (@Pilki) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia Nothing! I'd be a very rich lady with all the apologies I've had in the last few 7 days, apologies doesn't get my service back does it?!

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

  • deangledhill
    Dean Gledhill (@deangledhill) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Yep did that but the signal strength went . Not strong enough to use upstairs

  • 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

  • Gav_Leaf

    Thanks @virginmedia Glad to know your levels of service are still going to be this utterly dire to justify pumping my price up an extra £15 a month!

  • PaulAllen007
    Sir Paul A (@PaulAllen007) reported

    Brilliant news. The worst of the worst. Moved house, no virgin media at new property and they would not cancel the contract. @virginmedia never use these con artists.

  • mitzpatel85
    Mitesh Patel (@mitzpatel85) reported

    @Channel4News Don’t think £28m justifies their actions.. if they were deliberately putting customers on hold and dropping call while they tried to cancel, the fine should be £1bn - absolutely pathetic from Virgin Media

  • growlers6
    Glen SWFC B (@growlers6) reported

    @virginmedia is the website down?

  • Ailsa56202286
    Ailsa (@Ailsa56202286) reported

    (Part 4/4) Meanwhile, I was receiving constant calls demanding payment and threatening late payment charges. No customer should have to fight this hard just to leave a broadband contract. SHAME ON YOU, @VirginMedia.

  • DevilHatman
    Hatz (@DevilHatman) reported

    @virginmedia The hilarious part... your complaints team sends me an email saying we agreed a resolution and closed it. We have abso-*******-lutely not agreed a resolution. I haven't even been able to speak to anyone yet and nobody has replied to response. @Ofcom

  • Prodgey
    Lyn Prodger (she/her) (@Prodgey) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just sent you yet another DM. Same one I’ve sent countless times with no resolution or response.

  • cherry_ugh
    Cherry Von Boom (@cherry_ugh) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Day 14 of not having a working phone, of having 3 counts of fraud on my account, on having people STILL trying to hack your login page, of getting no help, and my gods, I can see why you’ve been fined 28 million. And the transphobic complaints team? Chefs kiss.

  • maegdi
    magdi abdelhadi (@maegdi) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service sucks. do something about it ffs

  • PaulWatters2
    X Odus to Bluesky. (@PaulWatters2) reported

    @virginmedia are an absolute ******* awful company to try a deal with. Not a ******* clue about customer service. It's all about keeping you in contract. Bring back Telewest.

  • kesbyac
    Adrian Kesby (@kesbyac) reported

    @O2 I just want to change tariff to 10GB plan. I’m with Virgin Media so that becomes 20GB which is perfectly adequate. Sim Onlys are circa £15 which is fine but was told in store that I can’t port my number on the same network!
