  • LagstoneHall Michael Lockley #TheLostPaintingOfLagstoneHall (@LagstoneHall) reported from Leeds, England

    @ReetNortherner4 @DawnSunrise1 @virginmedia They are poor, I was constantly doing "tests" on the line for a month before they agreed to try and fix it. Then later on, they handed our account to Talktalk without proper consultation who were even worse .

  • MarcusUK5 Marcus UK (@MarcusUK5) reported from Leeds, England

    When @virginmedia #complaints dept are supposed to ring you within 2 hours - 5 hours later & waiting. Why did I just move to this company? #fail #virginmedia

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia Yes but can never get through via phone

  • Mr_Mark_Taylor Mark Taylor (@Mr_Mark_Taylor) reported from Kirkburton, England

    Morning @virginmedia. Is there a broadband issue for HD8? The service status facility isn’t working on your website. Thanks.

  • martynbolt Martyn Bolt (@martynbolt) reported from Mirfield, England

    Terrible customer service by @virginmedia cancelled 0800 installation in Dewsbury today at 2100 last night Strangely blaming @KirkleesCouncil

  • PippaKOldfield Pippa Oldfield (@PippaKOldfield) reported from Wakefield, England

    @AssistanceVm @TranslatioNinja @virginmedia That’s a bit of a salty reply. I think your customer was referring to various barriers in the way of cancelling her contract, not the difficulty involved in selecting call options. She’s still been unable to cancel and is being pressured her to keep her contract.

  • JamieSmith45 Jamie Smith (@JamieSmith45) reported from Huddersfield, England

    Every month without fail our broadband goes down - @virginmedia what is going on? Particularly after prices went up last week!

  • 0ssettTerrier Paul (the original Ossett Terrier 🐶) (@0ssettTerrier) reported from Ossett, England

    @carltonnash @virginmedia Good luck! Unless they're trying to retain your business, they're as bad as @sky

  • MatthewFerretti Matt Ferretti (@MatthewFerretti) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I HAVE SPENT A TOTAL OF 3 HOURS ON THE PHONE TRYING TO CANCEL MY CONTRACT!

  • parky1021 simon parkinson (@parky1021) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia WiFi constantly dropping out. How do I fix this plz

  • MatthewFerretti Matt Ferretti (@MatthewFerretti) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Spoken to a chatbot, messenger bot, automated phone system, a human and still can’t get @virginmedia to cancel my contact. Over 3 hours of being placed on hold and sent round in circles

  • bally79 Suzy Swift (@bally79) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Can’t get through to customer services need an engineer to come to mums as unable to set up broadband and phone line! And why you sent out a tv box when she isn’t having virgin tv is puzzling?!

  • BesaJason Jason Hemingway. (@BesaJason) reported from Brighouse, England

    It’s too cliche. Take to Twitter to praise @virginmedia and shortly after the service and signal becomes a shocker so you can’t even do the basics. Can’t even get support.

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia still not gettingg full speed for connection on internet, very slow, phone lines a joke still to get through - Covid as per usual - fed up of slow speeds constantly after new router!!! Please sort yourselves out!!!

  • Joannemarygriff Joannemarygriffin (@Joannemarygriff) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia On demand still not working and every time I sign in it’s been moved on three days for repair in my area. This has been ongoing for two weeks now which I find unacceptable especially when all bills have just gone up in price.

  • 28gem Gem 💎 (@28gem) reported from Wakefield, England

    I have been trying since the 19th February to cancel my @virginmedia services. I can’t get through on the phone... ever! I’ve sent numerous messages which haven’t had any response.

  • Toni_M_Arboleda Antonio M. Arboleda #FBPE (@Toni_M_Arboleda) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Yes, thank you. I have checked. I rang 150 and all they get me to do is to restart my hub. It works OK for a while, but problems come back. I am very upset. I videocommunicate with 100s of people and it is very embarrassing having to explain 2 them the problems caused by Virgin

  • SophieVPeel SvP💙💛 (@SophieVPeel) reported from Leeds, England

    4 days of trying to get through to @virginmedia finally get through to Sandra to be told they have system issues and can I call back in 2 hours- shocking and poor customer service #dontusevirgin quick enough to take my money!

  • Ash_worth Fat Joe (@Ash_worth) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It’s a wireless connection. It’s the router that crashes- apparently an issue in the local area. It’s happened since the first week in December and now we’re on to the 4th date for it to be fixed. Nightmare with homeschooling and work.

    @virginmedia No I've tried that and it's not working

  • SaffsAI Bam Bam (@SaffsAI) reported from Bradford, England

    Why companies like @virginmedia use WhatsApp support I do not know. The system makes you wait an hour, if you don't respond in 10 minutes, it kicks you off the chat just to make you wait again

  • emmalouise78 EmmaLouise (@emmalouise78) reported

    I am so angry right now with how I am being treated by @virginmedia that I have made a complaint. Guess what my reference number is!!! Nothing, the space for this was blank. You can't even let me people make complaints without messing me about. This is an absolute joke.

  • Jo3Day Joe Day (@Jo3Day) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t believe I’ve been out of OX11 postcode since issues started however I don’t believe others have had issues, making me believe it’s possibly a problem with my phone itself?

  • marklewins Mark Lewins (@marklewins) reported

    @virginmedia Hello. Having followed the instructions to switch to Wifi Max, there are 2 issues; 1. The VM Connect App cannot be installed on any phone in my house. All running Android 12. So that test cannot be done. 2. We have powerline boosters (free) from VM. Can we swap...

  • _Clean_Nuclear Nuclear (@_Clean_Nuclear) reported

    @virginmedia My only options are CICAS or OFCOM. There is no central point to have issues resolved. None of your staff seems to have the ability to coordinate a resolution without passing me from call centre to call centre. I'm embarrassed to have ever recommended you.

  • alisonmbrady72 Alison (@alisonmbrady72) reported

    @virginmedia what is the best number to call to cancel services. I've rang 150 and been passed to 3 different departments and then cut off!

  • AbbeyBhatty abbeybhatty (@AbbeyBhatty) reported

    @richardbranson @vmbusiness am going to start legal action against VMB if they don't stop sending us bills for an account that was shut down as they haven't set up a COR and DD for the new company.

  • Jo3Day Joe Day (@Jo3Day) reported

    @virginmedia experiencing issues with my iPhones 4g, not sure whether it’s my phone or issues with the network?

  • _Clean_Nuclear Nuclear (@_Clean_Nuclear) reported

    @virginmedia And even here your "cut n paste" help continues
