    @virginmedia You expect me to pay £70+ per month on the dot or you’ll cut me off... if I complain about lack of internet and tv people at virgin media drag their backsides not to help or compensate us customers when it goes horribly wrong but you’ll demand to be paid in full every month !!

    @virginmedia No I submitted a complaint form yesterday but I’m unsure if it was sent. I never received a ref number so I do doubt if it submitted successfully,

  • Alistair_____xd Alistair (@Alistair_____xd) reported from Gildersome, England

    @virginmedia I have tried everything when it comes to the connection, this is an SNR issue at the exchange meaning my internet intermittently fails. I have been told there is nothing I can do to restore my internet connection apart from getting my internet from another provider

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia And this is how you can get away with blue murder because it not consecutive interruptions but in my case it was in September and you move the parameters to suite your statistics even when I complained that my entire weekend with out internet and limited tv service

  • Chris_Johnson85 Chris Johnson (@Chris_Johnson85) reported from Leeds, England

  • Alistair_____xd Alistair (@Alistair_____xd) reported from Gildersome, England

    @virginmedia There is an SNR issue in my area,been going on since May, logged a complaint or two in regards to the matter, and it still goes down. Customer service team don't seem to care about it and just tell me to sit and wait for it to come up. Nothing they can do help me. 😠😠

  • josephhtfc13 Joseph Hardcastle (@josephhtfc13) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @virginmedia @kempsapey It’s not working , sort it out

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia You talk about SLA what about telling and training your staff about SLA and not to blatantly lie to customers in order to end and move on to the next customer... why can’t you lt do that! Instead of pontificate to me as a customer on SLA guidelines!

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia @virgin @richardbranson @BBCWatchdog Yet again virgin media has Reneged on a promise! I was assured that someone was going to call me back today at 11 o’clock and now at the time of typing this it’s 1:10 customer service is nil! All they want is my money.

  • Chris_Johnson85 Chris Johnson (@Chris_Johnson85) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia extremely poor service again it seems like it’s ever other week we don’t have WiFi it’s just not good enough. #bringbacksky #ohno #notgoodenough

  • Chris_Johnson85 Chris Johnson (@Chris_Johnson85) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It’s seem to be ok at the moment but we seem to be having many problems over these last couple of months and trying to get though to speak to someone is impossible I was waiting 1 hour and 45 mins all in all and nothing. It just seems to be poor at the moment. #nogoodenough

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia someone was supposed to have called me today at 11. What a surprise again no one has called me back! Disappointed and disgusted by the lack of customer service.

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginnightmare @virginmedia I’ve gone to @BBCWatchdog you should do too! And the more of @virginmedia customers complain they might have to actually do something! And to stop their so called customer services lies! They need to held accountable for what they do and in many cases don’t do.

  • adamptr92 Adam Potter (@adamptr92) reported from Gildersome, England

    @BBCWatchdog Virgin Media - great when it works, and super quick. However, lots of outage, awful customer service and no form of compensation for prolonged loss of service despite promises. I will not be renewing at the end of the contract!

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It happened every day for a month or more! It would start during the day I couldn’t access tv nor internet and twice of entire weekend at one point Virgin media said there wasn’t any issues until I kicked up a fuss .. I was assured I would be compensated because of this

  • samsworldofno Sam Phillips (@samsworldofno) reported

    @virginmedia Check the complaint? I’ve been told contradictory things from the complaints team and have been told on five separate calls with the call centre that it will be sorted, and it never is.

  • KieranPhilpott6 Kieran Philpott (@KieranPhilpott6) reported

    @virginmedia State of tweets to VM from fed up customers. Utter shambles. VM can't be bothered to help or contact me, let's see how quickly they make contact when I dont pay my bill. Not paying for a service I'm not receiving. SORT IT OUT

  • aliceb23 alice 🍓berry (@aliceb23) reported

    @virginmedia hi there I’ve now waited a total of 2 hours to speak to your customer service team. Not acceptable. Been cut off 3 times trying to speak to someone. Is this because I’m trying to change provider? What would you recommend to speak to someone ?

  • Matt_RuggD Matt D (@Matt_RuggD) reported

    @virginmedia Unfortunately the issues are continuous. You have an entire postcode of angry customers, having all received the same email. It would be lovely to call from a VM landline, except its connected to the internet, and so rarely works. £25 extra for nothing. DISGRACEFUL.

  • Shaun_Biggs Shaun (@Shaun_Biggs) reported

    Just waited on telephone @virginmedia for an age only for it to ring and then the phone put down on me! Not good!

  • mattdobson1900 Matt Dobson (@mattdobson1900) reported

    @virginmedia Deadlock was already arranged, never recieved a letter and the account was closed, claims court will have a field day with this one

  • lisabellew27 Lisa Bellew (@lisabellew27) reported

    @virginmedia I am struggling to connect, even the 4G is ridiculously slow..

  • Andypeep Andy Pugsley (@Andypeep) reported

    @MoneySavingExp tried Haggling with virgin media about getting better deal even said would cancel then come back as new customer they said I'd have to wait for 2 months after cancelling to be classed as a new customer. Can they do that?

  • samsworldofno Sam Phillips (@samsworldofno) reported

    @virginmedia Can you ask somebody to fix it?

  • chrisjohnmich Christopher John Michael (@chrisjohnmich) reported

    @virginmedia been on the phone for over an hour. Disconnected again during call. Since the 12th August I have been trying to get my new contract organised. Its still not. Unbelievably bad customer service again.
