    @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.

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

    And again @virginmedia have taken payment for a service I cancelled and have never actually used. Still can't log on to my account because it apparently doesn't exist.

    Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported from Darton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

  • 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

    Simon Day (@SiDay14) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Did you even read the thread?? Now you want me to complain about an issue I’ve complained about several times already? The whole point is your pathetic response to issues!

  • ashleyhirst15
    Ashley Hirst (@ashleyhirst15) reported from Bradford, England

    @skytv are proper jokers account due for renewal and only offered to knock it down by £7 per Month... That's the £7 increase they put on... Virgin media can get same package for £30 cheaper!

  • DarylBeaumont2
    Daryl Beaumont (@DarylBeaumont2) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I was moving house they said the bill would be different for the first three months, then back to normal, however apparently I agreed to a new contract @ £14 extra per month, I’d only had my previous contract for 6 months so why would I do this, oh and the house move was cancel

  • paul_phillips83
    Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia been on hold 15 minutes your agent been back to me yet again same telling me I have to pay extra why do virgin think that if you charge extra this will fix an issue #badcustomerservice actually get it right first time to stop repeat calls

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

    @virginmedia I've received a bill for April but I never actually used your service as I didn't have a compatible socket so cancelled. Trying to sign in, I'm told my email address and account number are not recognised.

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

    @RestartCarl @virginmedia BT are just as bad.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

  • 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

  • Yuz6Yusof
    Md Yuzaiful Md Yusof (@Yuz6Yusof) reported from Leeds, England

    Having been a loyal customer for 4 years with @virginmedia, I have been lied to by customer service. They applied a different package than what agreed on phone. Violation of customer’s right! Rang 3 times since to complain but nothing has been done! Disgraceful @VirginMediaCorp

  • jonfoz1
    Jon Foster (@jonfoz1) reported

    @BobLakey1 @virginmedia Got the same problem. Message came up that I'm not authorised to watch any channels including BBC and ITV and to contact 150. When I tried, the phone line doesn't recognise my phone number and the website can't trace my account. Nothing to do but wait I guess.

  • cliffycliffy118
    James clifton (@cliffycliffy118) reported

    @virginmedia Not being funny but my dads 68 and does not have twitter/x. He has been on hold for over an hour on your 150 number maybe play an automated message on that number to let people know! Customer service is terrible

  • Medzy1506
    Ahmed Mohamed (@Medzy1506) reported

    @virginmedia Been down since approx 9am this morning and still not resolved.

  • mooeycatrooie
    Moo (@mooeycatrooie) reported

    @JoshCF_ @HendrickD82 Yup this works, used to do it with Virgin media. My brother doesn't even live at my address but every 18 months we used to use each others names and just cancel and have the new contract start. You'll have to mail back your old modem but you just plug the new one in. We did 1/2

  • billingtonius
    Bill Carter (@billingtonius) reported

    @virginmedia What about those experiencing problems with their internet? Being sent pointless updates via text. Each message being sent 3 times. Each message just pushing the expected resolution back a few days. For nearly a month now.

  • Trisha121153
    Trisha Mills (@Trisha121153) reported

    @virginmedia is really having problems. All our area of G71 has lost TV pictures, just pixilating. Usually you can get a service status, but not even getting that. It's happening so often lately, it's getting really annoying! Fed up paying mega money for this!
