    @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

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

    @virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting

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

    @virginmedia How do I open a complaint then, because I’m still stuck on the phone with her and she is refusing to let me make my complaint.

  • AdamPagett3

    @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

    @virginmedia what’s going on with internet service in HD8 area ? I don’t want to have to wait 23 hours before calling a technician as advised by your service page

    @virginmedia Logged in first time and no problems but since then I get this screen

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

    @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  • guyrleech
    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

  • bezzyboy88
    Matty Beswick (@bezzyboy88) reported from Leeds, England

    Outage on @virginmedia since yesterday morning, get a text message this morning saying it’s fixed. It’s not. Ring up to be told it will be fixed by 2nd November what good is that to anybody?

  • philter66
    Phil Turner (@philter66) reported from Leeds, England

    Hi @virginmedia maybe try answering my call ..as a customer of 25 years paying the atrocious figure of £145 a month @skytv could be getting a new customer

  • SamWalker03
    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 🤡

  • jim_johnson24
    Jim Johnson (@jim_johnson24) reported from Shepley, England

    @virginmedia 7 days and still no @O2 resolution

  • 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?

  • 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

  • SamWalker03
    Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?

  • AdamPagett3
    Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported from Featherstone, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin Terrible service

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

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

  • 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.

    Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported from Chigwell, England

    @virginmedia absolutely useless customer service, with no knowledge of what to do and how to resolve issues. Each person tells you something different and unable to resolve a problem with WiFi connection! How am I meant to work from home with no internet? They don’t care!

  • MeganJuliaaa_
    🐇Megan🐰 (@MeganJuliaaa_) reported

    @virginmedia great, it says going to be down for the whole day.. now i’m going to have to use my 4G which is going to cost a fortune

  • Babyootang
    Goat (@Babyootang) reported

    @virginmedia No! They lied and said I phoned and cancelled the installation - obviously I did not and I asked for a recording of the alleged phone call which still has not materialised! Engineer came out 22nd March and said no problem to install at property but still no installation!

  • Babyootang
    Goat (@Babyootang) reported

    @virginmedia I called that number and it is just a customer service operator who I had to explain everything again to be put through to pre installs and I have to repeat everything again! They are not helping at all-this is the team that lied to us only yesterday!

  • ClaireBernard17
    Claire Bernard (@ClaireBernard17) reported

    @virginmedia where is the web form in the contact us part of the website? I want to make a complaint in writing about the unfairness of the early cancellation fee. I shall also contact the Ombudsman.

  • Nineteen791
    Nineteen79 (@Nineteen791) reported

    @virginmedia It's been like this for days. Neighbours say no one has come to fix this

  • a_j_woodford
    Andrew (@a_j_woodford) reported

    @virginmedia please can you give me a number to cancel my order at pre-installation stage. Thank you

  • Carolin05779734
    Caroline Armstrong (@Carolin05779734) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have done that. I would like an engineer to come and look at it because tech support only has one response which is factory reset. I was told its against your protocol to send someone when they can do it over the phone. But they can't because it still doesn't work

  • sophiestevox
    Sophie Stevenson (@sophiestevox) reported

    @virginmedia Yes we have but why does it keep saying the service is down in my area when other people’s in my area are working fine

  • MeganJuliaaa_
    🐇Megan🐰 (@MeganJuliaaa_) reported

    @virginmedia how long do you think it will take to be repaired? it’s been patchy for a while before it completely went down as well
