  • 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

    @virginmedia free gifts(£150.00) gift voucher& Apple Watch) now she’s been given 5 accounts with a massive bill & you’re asking for a payment to release the gifts. MASSIVE SCAM. D.D cancelled. Racheal Barrass as customer services director I fully expect you to sort this mess out

    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

    @virginmedia It’s been on and off for weeks. Nothing is being done quickly enough. Hope you will be compensating customers for the loss of service !

    Jordan (@jordfcs) reported from Bradford, England

    @yatin_suvagiya @virginmedia Sky are rubbish 3 weeks I have been calling them to sort out an issue and now the managers that are promising to call me don’t call me back shocking service from @SkyUK can’t wait to leave and virgin have offered me a cheaper deal with more add ons that sky can give me

  • SamWatt30745054
    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

    @virginmedia We should pay by the minute and then it would reflect on the bill when its down.

  • 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

  • jamiewhalley87
    Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

    @HAWTToys I'm on Sky and their Internet service is 100 times better than Virgin media's

  • 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

  • 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?

    @virginmedia do I get an award. Nine hours and counting on chat just clocked up and not one inch forward despite being passed from one wrong department to another when asked for customer services at 9.05am and have been through every department but then

    @virginmedia I’m on Microsoft edge & have copied the link. Still nothing give me a contact number to actually speak to someone. On Saturday my wife was promised a resolution by Tuesday( today). Is this yet another lie ?

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia Because they expect lots of folk to either not realise or just pay anyway, its also why they make it so difficult to call. Funny you can join and change everything on line except cancel! Virgin are THE worst company for service.

  • Seanster1984
    Sean Milroy (@Seanster1984) reported

    @virginmedia why are you telling people to get a booster after upgrading to 360 when a box is connected to its router through Ethernet cable? Ethernet connection is better. Wi-Fi is a luxury. People are paying over odds for service but you want them to pay more? Get a grip!!

  • vp_matic
    V (@vp_matic) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband down since 7am this morning. With a secluded repair date of 2days from now! ‘Register of loss of service In Order to receive compensation’ impossible to locate on your app or any of your web pages? Yet a Price increase this month! Absolutely Shameful!!

  • MykeJD1
    MykeJD (@MykeJD1) reported

    Hi @virginmedia I'm an existing customer, we just paid a 5ver to upgrade and add the kids TV package. I did this yesterday around 5pm, I have a confirmation email but it doesn't tell me when it becomes active? So far 24 hours later and a full TV reset they still aren't working.

    Gerbil (@f4ckiam) reported

    I feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2 I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is

    @virginmedia What? On and off for the past 8 days? It just went down again 5 minutes ago. Fix it and compensate me let me leave.

  • yardley_canary
    David Whiteside (@yardley_canary) reported

    @virginmedia are in top 3 worst companies I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. They may even be top. Rude, expensive, evasive, and unreliable. What started as a simple investigation into switching for cost reasons has now made me resolute in my decision! Disgusting!

    @virginmedia your customer service is abysmal- sort it out

    @lelly401 @virginmedia @NetflixUK No i had it separately. Then my virgin bill had a netflix subscription on it. I asked them to cancel as I hadn't taken netflix with them. Now my regular subscription has been downgraded to standard!!!
