    @richardbranson How about you “race” to improve your shit Virgin Media services

  • pjam62 Phillip Jameson (@pjam62) reported from Gildersome, England

    @virginmedia 1/2At the time of the problem the Virgin media app wouldn’t even recognise that I was a customer, so I couldn’t access any information on the status of the service. The problem is that without anyone touching the router it just goes into a cycle of resetting itself.

  • shaunyp8471 Shauny P ♈️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ⚽️ 🎶 (@shaunyp8471) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I get this standard response EVERY time I notify you of any missing eps I find. The prog aired last night for the 1st time & stated after ALL eps available afterwards. There will have been an issue uploading the programme that you need to get your DTV dept to investigate.

  • charldimond Charlotte 💎 (@charldimond) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia No broadband LS134SX - have run test and checked service status to no avail.

  • Robbotherhino83 Ben Robinson (@Robbotherhino83) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace of a service, don’t care about customers at all and to top it off can’t express your views or explain your side because telephone operatives don’t understand what your saying #back2sky

  • gemma_houlston Gemma Houlston (@gemma_houlston) reported from Wibsey, England

    @virginmedia I had no internet for 2/3 hours but yet opted into the free text message to let me know when the issue has been fixed. Still no text message 🤣🙈

  • philjh1975 Phil Hardaker (@philjh1975) reported from Shadwell, England

    @virginmedia nice of one of your cancellations team to just put the phone down on me when I asked them to confirm I’d have something in writing to show the date I’d be leaving you. Never mind the additional service you put on without my permission that he let slip.....

  • rizzy_7 Rizzy Mo (@rizzy_7) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia fibre broadband is a fraud! Never works.... almost every other night since I signed up with them the connection fails or I have to reset the router. Its disgraceful #virginmedia #virginmediadown

  • harryd20200 Haz (@harryd20200) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia do you have a direct number to uk customer services as your staff in India are useless and do not understand I want my phone number changed to ex directory. 4 times I've been transferred to different departments and each one has poor english and really struggles.

  • steno22 Rebecca Stenson (@steno22) reported from Wibsey, England

    @virginmedia numerous phone calls, 1 involving 5 different people and every time its having to explain the same issue to each and every one. The call centre staff do not listen. The inept service is frustrating and staggering! I'm sorry we left BT!

  • binxl Binder Xavier Lal (@binxl) reported from Wibsey, England

    Come on @virginmedia I’ve got lots of files to send and receive, there’s no outage in my area but the signal is so weak. I pay for the highest speed available!! Frustrating and maddening to say the least!......

  • D1e9a7n8o Dean Westnutt (@D1e9a7n8o) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Of course - an upgrade to the 5 year old TiVo box which is painfully slow

  • rizzy_7 Rizzy Mo (@rizzy_7) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia Speaking to someone based thousands of miles away in India. Is not very helpful. Not being awful, but they just dont understand what I'm trying to tell them. Get me someone from the UK

  • cstarkey12 chris starkey (@cstarkey12) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia have some how managed to ***** up our broadband and TV! We are now in to day 2 with out them and they can't get anyone out until Friday to fix it😠 which now means I have to talk to my wife and the kids🤯 #oldskoolliving

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I understand why you cannot help, but neither can anyone else, or explain what the problem is. I am documenting & recording my calls/emails/tweets ( yes I do tell the operator I'm recording, just as they do, it's the law, you would be surprised at some of their reactions)

  • ste_sundance17 Stephen Sunderland (@ste_sundance17) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I am asking you as the person who came to the house said he will have to report this back as they have been some major issues / spikes on the line. I don’t wish to keep looking into links when I am paying for virgin for a product and to provide a solution

  • BuntysBoutique Bunty's Boutique (@BuntysBoutique) reported from Gildersome, England

    @virginmedia you are guilty of entrapment in my opinion....Why don't you have email us on your website. How come I can only telephone you (if you can ever get through) to cancel my ridiculously expensive broadband contract at £67 per month in order to move to EE @ £28 per month.

  • ste_sundance17 Stephen Sunderland (@ste_sundance17) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia The engineer came out yesterday and confirmed an issue on the line. The tv is still buffering now as it was done earlier. Please can you advise when the issue will be resolved as I am paying for a product which is not working correctly which I don’t think I should be paying for

  • Lindyprec Linda Precious (@Lindyprec) reported from Swillington, England

    @virginmedia After being charged £6.50 for a 5 second call, advised to use my home Internet on mobile as virgin signal poor.... Etc et etc..

  • Superfly29 Matt P (@Superfly29) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia Mobile. Upgraded mine and wife’s phones yesterday on line. Everything fine awaiting emails to sign. Only one came. Asked where was the second and told “irregularities”. Despite us both having the same contracts for 10+ years with no issue. Money removed to end existing contracts.

  • gibbons_timothy Tim Gibbons (@gibbons_timothy) reported

    @virginmedia But what exactly is the issue? Hundreds of us deserve an explanation... Transparency is in order.

  • FairbairnStacey Stacey Fairbairn (@FairbairnStacey) reported

    @virginmedia Still no wifi. Can someone please find out what the issue seems to be? Or will I just not work this week either ?

  • j_leeson James (@j_leeson) reported

    @virginmedia 3. Complaint - this is part of the reason I wanted to speak to a manager. I just want my broadband installed.

  • garofalo2011 agarofalo (@garofalo2011) reported

    @virginmedia/@LutzSchueler - absolutely appalled at the customer service - 12 days since elderly parents phone cut off. No explanation or consent yet still charged. Daily calls, broken promises and no follow up - call this customer service?

  • cr41g4 Craig Aspey (@cr41g4) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just got off the phone to them. Been on for over an hour. No change. I’ll be charged nearly double this month unless I cancel the payment and I can’t cancel unless paying nearly £300 as over the 14 days cooling off, even though I only knew about this after 14 days

  • Blonde_kitty_x Goddess Kitty (@Blonde_kitty_x) reported

    @virginmedia The audacity you have that if I want to cancel, I have to call you, and yet the number published sitewide is an incorrect number 🤡 What is your *actual* number?

  • gibbons_timothy Tim Gibbons (@gibbons_timothy) reported

    @virginmedia I have been off ill this week but if I was able to work I would be lucky enough to be able to travel to the office until service restored at home. But there are people that do not have that option nowadays, and plenty in our area with vulnerabilities that become isolated.

  • datamaps datamaps (@datamaps) reported

    @virginmedia BTW, if I just cross the road into SE1 I get 5G with places ~100 so definitely not the phone. If the problem is because of your change to Vodafone I really want out without ending fees as that's not what I've been sold

  • veganrugbydad XvX Ⓥ (⧖) (@veganrugbydad) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah. No help. Just want more money which isn't happening. There is a cost of living crisis. People are changing viewing habits (streaming) and you want more money!

  • j_leeson James (@j_leeson) reported

    @virginmedia 1. Compensation - installation cancelled multiple times. Was told I would be compensated £5 per day as a consequence. When it was scheduled on a date I couldn't make, was told that the whole period is then treated as customer initiated change for which no compensation is avail.
