    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp @VMDotCom Virgin are liars and thieves they misinformed me, stole my money then after 20min waiting to get through to customer service they drop the phone on you. Do not go to virgin they are horrible

  • channa_2012 CD 🌸 (@channa_2012) reported from Hackney, England

    I just listened to your fuzzy hold music for 18 minutes @virginmedia, went through the same security Q’s multiple times, only for the phone to cut off as I explained my issue. I JUST WANT TO CANCEL MY BROADBAND!!!!! Can someone call me back to do this please

  • followcbv Madhan (@followcbv) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Indeed that is the problem

  • dylzdevani City Girl #140499 (@dylzdevani) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia The wifi is always flashing green. Even when it says there is no issue. Fortunately tho the contract is coming to an end which means so will payments👍. Paying for about 250Mb to get 30 on a wired connection

  • TimHDav Tim Davies (@TimHDav) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia The phone of course is still not working. Outrageous. This is despite assurances that an engineer would be sent & that it would be resolved in several hours! Utter nonsense. I would like to escalate my complaint now please. I will dm my number & please arrange for me to be called

  • georgiamumbles Georgia Mumby (@georgiamumbles) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia That leads me to just our conversation history. I’ve done all the hub checks according to your website and it’s still not working

  • Enfield67 Paul Dart (@Enfield67) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia We’ve got through and the customer service man was very rude

  • Timothy_Hughes Tim Hughes 提姆·休斯 (@Timothy_Hughes) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Thank you .... will try. — The text I got today said “With our Connect app, your WiFi can't hide. It's like a WiFi sniffer dog, hunting down blackspots.” You might like to point out to Marketing that a reword is needed as I took it literally. Thanks for your help.

  • georgiamumbles Georgia Mumby (@georgiamumbles) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia hey my WiFi is down and I’ve been trying to get through to somebody in your call centre for ages - I was on hold until way after closing time and your message feature doesn’t work 😞 HEEEELLLPPPP!!!!

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Spoke to your woeful customer on Friday about how much compensation I was going to receive for my outage,I was assured I would get a call back, still waiting!!! #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • beckylucydell Becky Dell (@beckylucydell) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia your service is a joke. Just taken me 32 minutes to change my bank details on the phone. Call centre staff should be able to speak the same language as your customers to a standard high enough to be able to do the job. Such a waste of time 😩😩😩

  • channa_2012 CD 🌸 (@channa_2012) reported from Hackney, England

    @funkyfairy78 @virginmedia They will owe me a refund in September and I’ll make sure I get it 👆🏼 They’ve been messing me around for so long with their rubbish service, I should’ve cancelled months ago! #virginmedia

  • channa_2012 CD 🌸 (@channa_2012) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Called back, held for another 15mins, was finally put through to the correct dept & have cancelled. I just want to say how rude the agent turned when I declined the offer to stay, & once it was all done he just cut the call off. Glad I made the right decision #virginmedia

  • JanineAdelman Janine (@JanineAdelman) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia I will phone you, but wait a minute, my phone doesn't work!

  • dylzdevani City Girl #140499 (@dylzdevani) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Im not thick ofcourse all the cables are connected, it wouldnt tell me 30mb if the ethernet wasnt in. The hub has been reset whenever there is an issue, which happens to be every few days.

  • mmulla Muhammad Saeed Mulla (@mmulla) reported from Walthamstow, England

    To be fair, this is probably a PR person tweeting this, but really bad PR for @VirginMedia if they think that this is secure. Plus they missed the whole point, which was that the password was stored in plaintext.

  • potentialprodz potentialproductionzmusic (@potentialprodz) reported from Hackney, England

    7 days time to no more bad service, disrupted TV and broadband service of Virgin Media. I'm saving myself £600 plus increased prices annually. So downsizing technology and reducing carbon footprint = 1 fone, mobile data and 1 computer. Will only have what I use! TV is next. Yay

  • wilderfulford Wilder Fulford (@wilderfulford) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia @virginbroadband. You have failed to fix the failings of your fibre optic so-called broadband in W11 for months. We are going back to BT as soon as we can.

  • Freddie_Owusu77 Freddie AFC Owusu (@Freddie_Owusu77) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Tried to call today waited for 20mins to get through finally got through to customer service and then they had to put me through the escalations team and as soon as i got through the operator pretended he could not hear then dropped the phone.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • StratenergyUK Zeinegul Salimova (@StratenergyUK) reported

    @virginmedia you outshine yourself again: set up a new account for someone else, used my email address and my bank details. Your advisers are limited to what they can do, they cannot contact the fraud department and you leave it on ME to cancel the DD and fill in the form.

  • htcig58 Innes Gray (@htcig58) reported

    @virginmedia Three and a half hours on chat and counting, this is not customer service. #VirginMedia #Painstakingly slow progress

  • ptmv69 paul mcvey (@ptmv69) reported

    @virginmedia There an incremental problem A few people I know have been experiencing difficulties in the L32 area of Kirkby Tried calling but just get a response say there is a problem and engineers are working hard to fix the problem

  • clairek1113 Claire (@clairek1113) reported

    @virginmedia How do I get to speak to your complaints team? Absolutely appalling service and can’t seem to speak to anyone apart from a service team who are repeatedly getting things wrong!!

  • perfectpolished perfectly polished (@perfectpolished) reported

    @virginmedia Can’t ring from landline as line has been disconnected - do you want to DM me to help with this?

  • guilt_manager craig mcgee 😷 (@guilt_manager) reported

    shocking from @virginmedia my friend asked them to give her a better deal, they said they could, but with only weekend calls, then cut her outgoing calls off. no surprises after the awful service I received from them.

  • PDLpuddle PDL (@PDLpuddle) reported

    @virginmedia I just can’t understand how you are allowed to make it so hard for someone to terminate their service with you. My contract started June 2017 with no changes since, so I was well out of any minimum period and have zero interest in staying with VM

  • AdamCalow Adam Calow (@AdamCalow) reported

    @virginmedia I am hoping you can help. My email stopped working. I have not been able to get a resolution from the website, the WhatsApp bot or 150 (failed to send a text to my phone ). How can I speak to a human?

  • stewprovo Stewart Gardiner (@stewprovo) reported

    @virginmedia Tried both, waiting waiting waiting! Promised a call back Friday….nothing! WhatsApp slow slow slow! Why are existing customers not treated like new ones, when we are generally paying you more money every month?

  • PDLpuddle PDL (@PDLpuddle) reported

    @virginmedia No, I declined any new deal. I’m already under contract with a new provider and made that clear to VM when I called to cancel my VM services. Still had 40 mins of attempted hard sell from retentions team though.
