  • guyrleech Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

  • fastnodeceo Beau (@fastnodeceo) reported from Leeds, England

    @ladyjaney75 @WhichUK When Virgin Media install VOIP phone lines I believe they stick some kind of SIM in for if the network is down, when the engineer knows it is a vulnerable/elderly user from when I asked previously.

  • mattwillward Matt Ward (@mattwillward) reported from Castleford, England

    @virginmedia I'm moving home and want to take Virgin Broadband with me. Your 'Let's chat' button doesn't work. Can you help please?

  • astolante 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.

  • 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

  • francesktaylor Mosaicmania (@francesktaylor) reported from Otley, England

    @virginmedia really poor customer service. My sister died, I kept her broadband for her lodgers. Months later, house is sold and I’m told I should have returned the router. £40 fee. I live 200 miles away and I’m not psychic! You never told me about this at the time.

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

    @RestartCarl @virginmedia BT are just as bad.

  • SamWalker03 Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia are up there with the worst companies for customer service. Their IVR is infuriating, they hang up on you when you do manage to get through and then tell you there is no way to make a complaint ! @Ofcom do you regulate these clowns 🤡

  • 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

  • Gstraitz Gareth Smith 🇬🇧 (@Gstraitz) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia any news on why services are down in Leeds please been 12hrs and no luck on any information? Tv is down but broadband and phone are fine

  • ringroads Martin Lowrie (@ringroads) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia We have finally got through to someone other via a mobile phone to sort it out. But there does seem to be an issue with your website.

  • a8dullah_mulla Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  • andy_english Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

  • 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.😭

  • guyrleech Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  • guyrleech Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I do need assistance over why the 4G backup didn't kick in when I had an outage last week but I've raised that with you already, I hope

  • 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

  • ScampyFryNinja Paul Knowles (@ScampyFryNinja) reported from Drighlington, England

    @virginmedia your internets gone down in BD11 area. its been off about 15mins now. Router has the red ring around it.

  • SamWalker03 Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?

  • 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

  • mattleete mattleete (@mattleete) reported

    @virginmedia Last night. Amazingly after hearing nothing the service seems to have fixed itself and is fine tonight.

  • Tracey12621362 Tracey (@Tracey12621362) reported

    @virginmedia appalling service the past few days which embarrassing when the signal drops in the middle of a meeting. Been dropping on and off all day and yesterday and no service now either. Not happy!! Postcode is SM5.

  • TonyH343 Tony Holloway (@TonyH343) reported

    @virginmedia Yep it’s still happening 3 months in some work some don’t. I’m getting used this with VM now. Some things I pay for I get and other things I don’t. This service could be so great but i’m massively disappointed. I look forward to a standard reply, text here, call there etc etc etc

  • Scofflawconor Scofflaw Conor (@Scofflawconor) reported

    Here @virginmedia . Broadband completely snafu’d in BT8, and your automated customer service is advising it won’t be fixed until late tomorrow morning. Surely we can do better than that? Especially when most of us are dependent on it to work from home.

  • NorCalBoxingFan JJ (@NorCalBoxingFan) reported

    @the_pieface @virginmedia Sorry, pie. Hang in there

  • dylan_c1 Dylan C (@dylan_c1) reported

    Uh oh, I think Virgin Media One has cut out...

  • WolfysLife wolfyknows (@WolfysLife) reported

    @the_pieface @virginmedia Does bt WiFi come up if you search it I can give you login in details should be strong enough to stream pal

  • TonyH343 Tony Holloway (@TonyH343) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia Do you realise what you are doing is not even legal? You can’t keep charging me for a service I’m not receiving. What’s worse is my friend has exactly the same package has all his services and is paying over £20 less on a 12 month contract and not the my 18 month one

  • dh_5__ David (@dh_5__) reported

    @virginmedia now I don’t complain often, but sort out your internet it is literally the worst in the country 👍🏼

  • Beckzy_ Gib Robbed (@Beckzy_) reported

    @jackey_paypig @the_pieface @virginmedia Wtf is wrong with you
