    @virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

    @virginmedia Are you serious, 24 hrs on chat being sent from pillar to post, to every area of virgin, repeatedly asked for account number when I don't have not will ever want to be a customer

  • 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

  • jordfcs
    Jordan (@jordfcs) reported from Bradford, England

    @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!

  • Churchill0782
    The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia do you care to give an update regarding services being down in the WF1 area of Wakefield? You estimate keeps changing which is becoming really annoying!! Literally 1000s of households without an Internet connection. #wakefield #poorservice

  • AndyHiggs1

    @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 🤔

  • JudgeDrokk
    Judge Drokk | Mark Hellewell (@JudgeDrokk) reported from Darton, England

    @virginmedia Well I don't know if the problem has been restored at virgins end I received help and advice from an outside source who showed show me how to work around the problem with manual DNS entries. But for me, working now. Thanks.

  • 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

    @virginmedia you're the worst Internet provider ever, you go down more than a prostitutes knickers

  • 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

  • w47carr
    Mrs c (@w47carr) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia why am h getting the message that my cable is broken

  • Churchill0782
    The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  • cgsneal
    Chris Neal 💙 (@cgsneal) reported from Leeds, England

    Hey @virginmedia my broadband is not working. Are there any issues in the LS15 area?

  • 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.😭

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

    @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

  • MartinCaine

    @virginmedia Two whole days now with our Internet connection dropping every ten minutes. How long is this fix expected to take?

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

    @virginmedia Nothing! I'd be a very rich lady with all the apologies I've had in the last few 7 days, apologies doesn't get my service back does it?!

  • Mcollinson72
    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia awful and aggressive scare tactics from your not so friendly cancellations rep when trying to cancel my service. God help any vulnerable person that tries to do the same thing. Shameful

  • Jp_Leeson
    John Leeson (@Jp_Leeson) reported from Wibsey, England

    @virginmedia Yeah he turned up unannounced and left then after several calls got another engineer out who said the fibre cable is snapped and needs replacing and he could not give me a date or time as his emails on his pda are not working so I guess it’s left in the hands of the gods

    Dean Hazell (@Deano01973) reported

    @EE do you offer broadband and TV similar to @virginmedia? I am looking to move away from Virgin as they have charged me a late payment fee which was down to an error they made.

    @virginmedia sort the Internet connection out please , paying premium rate for a crap service , Internet has been terrible for the last few days

  • debbsno1
    LovelifeLoveLowe (@debbsno1) reported

    @TheGriftReport Virgin media have been ringing me a lot, I dont answer, as I can NEVER understand the call handler, theyre also very impatient and rude. I pay my bill via direct debit on time, everytime, so , unless I've a problem to report I simply dont put myself through it, too stressful.

  • JustRusty
    Rusty Spoons (@JustRusty) reported

    @virginmedia How vile. There is no amount outstanding on my account. It has been paid. The response I got from the credit file amendments team was to contact the credit file amendments team. So I'll just go to CISAS. You're even horrible on social media. No wonder your trust pilot is so low.

    TheRealCraig (@AnIndividualist) reported

    If @virginmedia had good deals I would’ve considered re subscribing. But cancelling our old email addresses without notice because we cancelled has caused so much trouble I certain won’t now
