  • ConnorMather Connor Mather (@ConnorMather) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia is a joke had a issue with my internet box for weeks and nothing resolves it and I try to call them and never get a hold of them. Pisstake

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    Not a lover of call centres and thought that they didn't really offer any customer service of any real value, then you have the likes of @virginmedia and @Hermesparcels that seem to want to upset customers. That said, credit to @NespressoUK, was blown away with your service

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    Today's @virginmedia phone queue times, and still not sorted my broadband issue: - 1hr 30m - 2hrs 7m (cut off) - 1hr 33m (cut off) - currently, 17m Inept, profit grabbing company. Some more customer service staff would be great!

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia seriously, a price increase?! Only renewed my contract 2 months ago and for more than I've ever paid! Of course, no customer service available either. Ridiculous!

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia can I access some support on here?

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia Both, i currently have to work from home and my internet crashes all the time. i can’t get a signal in my bedroom which is the room directly above the box

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    No company will ever be as inept as @virginmedia: - Phone lines: wait for hours, can't speak to anyone - Message service on app down for two weeks - Text service: messaged Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues; still no reply

  • JaysonGurney Jayson Gurney (@JaysonGurney) reported from Darlington, England

    @Minal2804 @virginmedia I feel your pain and frustration. I'm have total loss of network and internet due to electrical problem caused by meter replacement with Utility Warehouse

  • BradleyStaunch Bradley Staunch (@BradleyStaunch) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Virgin media internet is good, EVERY SINGLE other thing about them is ******* shite. Never understand the ***** on the phone takes, 3 hours to get through, website always down, make a payment page been broke for 5 years. ******* ****

  • RobertTamkin94 Robert-Andrew Tamkin (@RobertTamkin94) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact your call centre for 15 minutes and I’ve tried all the options and I can’t get through to ANYONE!! I want to cancel my contract and it doesn’t give you the option online to do so!! Can someone cancel it from your social media team?

  • petersnowdon Peter Snowdon (@petersnowdon) reported from Darlington, England

    Hi @virginmedia received a letter this morning advising me of price rise and providing a link for more info. The link directs me to call and you don't answer. Any suggestions? I'd like to cancel my service with you. Thanks

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia hi, any help on a non responsive remote to vbox? It is flashing red when I press buttons bit nothing happening on box. Only started happening tonight

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    .@virginmedia are amazing me at the levels of incompetence that they're able to reach. Been on hold today now for 1h 33m, 2hrs 7m (then they cut me off!) and currently 33mins! If you need any customer service from them then avoid them!!!

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia I rang after the email and they assured me they have applied a discount and would stay the same price for my contract. I agreed a fix price and if that's not what I got then I have been lied too, which is a miss sale and the ombudsman will be contacted, again.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @NathHawkeswood @virginmedia Twitter cant help, phoning cant speak to anyone, text service in an endless loop, chat service online is also an endless loop I need to speak with line faults and they aren't even an option on the automated phone service so I'm really screwed

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England
