  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Hmmm. No the test was done on Sept I ten got a letter about 2 months later which confirmed my suspicions of a slow service after a new router and CMP plugs I’ve been trying to discuss what’s next since then. Need that callback! @Ofcom

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Why don’t you do that as so far you’ve sent me the link to the community group Fail 1. Then the 150 no not connecting fail 2 then 0345454111 is not connecting fail 3 You really know how to test a very long standing customer don’t you!

  • cherylhuggins Cheryl Huggins MUA /Skincare Specialist (@cherylhuggins) reported from Bromley, England

    @MoneySavingExp please help? @virginmedia #CustomerService on hold since 8.15am

  • JimboUK71 James Aubrey (@JimboUK71) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I’m still waiting since 15/12 for my boosters, and you’ve sent me a v6 box, for no reason. Spent another hour on hold, only to get cut off. Please arrange a callback to get these issues resolved. 07966594276 Thanks!

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia That’s my point I’ve been trying to sort this out but not getting the response of callback to decide what to do you guys also need to compensate for the service speed paid for not received! Back no ones calling me back...@Ofcom

  • cherylhuggins Cheryl Huggins MUA /Skincare Specialist (@cherylhuggins) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Loss of service and no phone line @virginmedia #customerexperience #businessowner

  • OohLookItsEmma Emma Hoyle (@OohLookItsEmma) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia a conundrum. If I call your service centre to cancel my service I get routed to the website that doesn’t allow me to cancel or I get routed through to a team that don’t answer. Do I just cancel my direct debit? Then at least you’ll know I’m not longer your customer.

  • jackarronscarth jack (@jackarronscarth) reported from Dartford, England

    Paid for #UFC257 through @virginmedia and it’s not working ?! #virginmedia

  • gemmajarrett Gemma Jarrett (@gemmajarrett) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I'm trying to get hold of someone to talk about my account and service but can't get through to anyone - how can I talk to someone?

  • Strattsy51 Steve ✊🏻 (@Strattsy51) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia why is live chat taking absolutely ages to connect me to anyone? I’d like to cancel my service, but if I was joining as a new customer I’m put through immediately. Are you making it difficult to cancel on purpose?

  • Transome77 Terry Ransome (@Transome77) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia now cannot watch on any of my devices! Keeps telling me I’ve reached the maximum devices! All the same devices I’ve always used! Can’t get through on phone or on line help?! Really annoying!

  • CridlandKeith Keith (@CridlandKeith) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Still not been able to get through to the support team 😢

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Are you reading my tweets? It’s not a fault! You’ve run a 30 day test you are running far under the service I’m paying for, I was waiting for a call to discuss what VM are proposing or if I should leave!!!! @Ofcom

  • RobHPayne @RobHPayne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@RobHPayne) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to contact your customer service team regarding #nuisancecalls plaguing my 84 yr old (isolating) Dad, all numbers online are unobtainable or recorded mssgs which cut off - im right in thinking you are a tele-communications provider aren't I ?

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @Ofcom Hi just gone through the complaints procedure with virgin media but they said they are waiting for ofcom to give the result if the speed test you did (can provide in DM if you reply) they ate saying you have to dictate what compensation level I should receive? Can U help?

  • Paul_Wingfield Paul Wingfield (@Paul_Wingfield) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I need to leave Virgin media because my bill has gone up by over 50%. I can't do it on the phone because you're not answering and your website doesn't have an option to close my account. Your live online help isn't answering either. What should I do?

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Don’t another post with link as the first one was ignored by Virgin also contacted @ofcom and @ASA_UK re claims of false advertising of 1 GB service which isn’t actually available in Dartford once you do get through. Want to talk? #stillwaiting #poorservice #shouldLlleave?

  • dazzgedd73 dazz ii am (@dazzgedd73) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia been trying to calm your customer service team but get cut off all the time, want to take out broadband but it says online I need to call? I hope this isn’t a representation of your service!

  • Strattsy51 Steve ✊🏻 (@Strattsy51) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Yes I do. I need to arrange cancellation of my broadband and tv service, in line with the email I received.

    @virginmedia Yes, your router is rubbish. I’m in IT and know how to troubleshoot problems. Apparently you don’t.

  • JoshLovesAnimeX Josh (@JoshLovesAnimeX) reported

    @virginmedia Is the fix date currently set to April 6th at 1pm?

  • leigherin88 Leigh (@leigherin88) reported

    @virginmedia are crooks. An engineer installed my broadband incorrectly. I made a complaint and no one has got back to me. It’s been 8 weeks. I am disabled and can’t use my fit for purpose office because the signal doesn’t extend beyond my living room.

  • alexsalvator Cristina (@alexsalvator) reported

    Yepeee Finally back on line. Virgin media went down in our area started Saturday night returning intermittently, then finally went down totally Sunday evening. No TV or Internet till now and the only person I could speak to about it was in Delhi, and did not speak clear English.

  • telfordultimate Telfordtheultimateguide (@telfordultimate) reported

    @virginmedia We are experiencing the most horrendous customer service - We are cancelling and never coming back!! I suggest you ignore this advert and move on!! All UK staff furloughed - Now the dreadful overseas call centres - that's how you treat loyal customers!!

  • Alex_wavey1 Alex (@Alex_wavey1) reported

    Virgin media are the worst

  • GregAlgaemaster Greg Allen (@GregAlgaemaster) reported

    @skytv why is your sky q secondary box so Crap?! Honestly every recorded programme has audio and sync issues! Very poor service considering what it costs. Wish I was still with #virginmedia

  • smalltown2k Dr Chris (@smalltown2k) reported
