    @virginmedia what’s the best deal you can do me please 🙏🏼 sky are having my life with the rubbish connection, internet never working and shocking customer services, a manager doesn’t even stick to their word of calling me back. Week 3 of my issues not getting resolved!

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

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

    @vmbusiness just wanted to ask how much you value customer service? I’ve just had a phone call from your operative with shocking customer service.

    @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.

  • mikeydavies86uk
    michael davies (@mikeydavies86uk) reported from Bradford, England

    Useless customer service. Spent 40mins being transferred around to have my call cancelled. @virginmedia

  • 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

  • leedsfan91
    james Staniforth (@leedsfan91) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia internet knacked again been like this for last month. And you charge us for this crap service

  • astolante
    Louise🐦🐝🌵🧀🐌 (@astolante) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia No, it wasn't clear that a different socket was needed, so rather than have to arrange for an engineer to visit, I cancelled the service. I still have the hardware and am happy to return it

  • MissModette
    ★ Kay ★ (@MissModette) reported from Leeds, England

    @RestartCarl @virginmedia BT are just as bad.

  • Barry80901949
    Barry (@Barry80901949) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia She will email her details now. If there’s no resolution in 24 hours I will take this higher

  • vid_mitra8
    Vid (@vid_mitra8) reported from Leeds, England

    Virgin media is frustratingly slow. We pay around 33 each month. That’s more of what we pay for two months of internet, TV with all sports channels everything and Netflix, Disney and Amazon prime included. Might move back to India I swear.😭

  • plrw2010
    Paul Waite (@plrw2010) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia why is your customer service so difficult to deal with? They seem like robots reading from a list of FAQ answers! Ask something not on the list they are clueless!! Thanks

  • Gav_Leaf
    Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported from Castleford, England

    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!

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

    @virginmedia how are we supposed to get in touch with you over a box problem when you say the email address that you send the bill to isn't recognised 🤔

  • Pilki
    Christine Pilkington (@Pilki) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia Major power outage, we never even had loss of service after Storm Arwen!!!

    Kamal Sharma (@KamalSh03012772) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Hi in LS28 7TU vigin services are down. We have no phone, TV channel services. It is giving v53 error code. Can you please sort this out. Thanks

  • 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

  • domburch
    Dom Burch ⤴️ (@domburch) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia To cancel. Tried ask contact methods other than writing you a letter so far. Carrier pigeon might be better.

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

    @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

    @Dearme2_ You think when you hit rock bottom things can only get better but then your house burns down and virgin media take you to court for non payment of your wifi

  • TomJJarvis
    Tom J Jarvis (@TomJJarvis) reported

    @virginmedia Your salesperson confirmed by text that his manager had approved covering that £6 for the term. I have the messages. It has never appeared on my bill. He asked me to email a compensation request, which I did. No reply. Chased three times since. No reply. 2/

  • PaulOBrienKil
    Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported

    @virginmedia @MizzCQ I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.

  • PaddySw99745534
    Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported

    @virginmedia @_JIMBO55 You still have not got it ! A customer has problems with your service who has messaged, emailed and called VM but you still have not dealt with their issues. Take your out of date equipment out of my home and I will move on to a better provider. For an 82 year old unacceptable.

  • TheWazzo
    BB (@TheWazzo) reported

    @virginmedia @FredWhitbread You didn’t need to send your standard reply, everything you needed to know was in Fred’s post, he’s trying to help you.

  • xhatne
    mmhmm (@xhatne) reported

    @Johnty14 @virginmedia Easy solution here, someone should invent a method to get the leaflet through the door, so it ends up in the house, but passers by can't see it so it isn't obvious that nobody is home.

  • DamianHastie
    Damian Hastie (@DamianHastie) reported

    @virginmedia Wow you really don't want additional business, shocking experience both with your customer service bot and now when DM your X bot. What a terrible business.

  • alan_reddish
    Lifes MIS-Takes (@alan_reddish) reported

    Need some proper answers from @virginmedia. No internet for 5th day.....estimated fix 4th Sept!!

  • Graelwyn
    Pure Hearted Human (@Graelwyn) reported

    @Ang_Jones72 It doesn't matter much now. As I intend to take my life as what virgin media don't know. Is that my mother and father abused me most of my life. And maybe since I never got her unconditional love as she loved only through money. I wanted to use the only thing she gives me now. Since she wouldn't call virgin to explain. As she cares more about my brother's partner's mother having cancer. Than that I may have cancer. So virgin media get their payments. And I have finally given up. That is all.
