  • SGuggiariPeel Sam Peel (@SGuggiariPeel) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia worst customer services I've ever dealt with. They make it hard to complain then lied to me twice deliberately and closed the complaint before it was resolved. Don't trust them!

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

    @virginmedia Indeed that is the problem

  • Amanda_Davey12 Amanda Davey (@Amanda_Davey12) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia no TV for 24 hours, been on the phone for 50 minutes, guy has now disappeared, left me hanging on the line! The service is so bad!

  • rusblake Russ (@rusblake) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia trying to speak to someone, on hold for 62mins and get hung up on! Paying for M500 b/band and getting 97mbps is not on by any standards by guessing by your customer services you have no standards #poorcustomerservice #virginmedia

  • Amanda_Davey12 Amanda Davey (@Amanda_Davey12) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately the guy just put the phone down on me and that link is not working!

  • PaulGoldsmith73 Paul Goldsmith (@PaulGoldsmith73) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Oh, and I raised a complaint a week ago and was promised call within two days. It’s now a week. Nothing.

  • Stefan_baisden Delboybaisden 📸🎥 (@Stefan_baisden) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia your online customer service intro is shocking. Frustrating and awkward. Such a big company should have a better phone service.

  • Gemsy8382 Gemma Sargeant (@Gemsy8382) reported from London, England

    Unbelievable! My mums internet service is having problems. The call centre seem unable to deal with this. This has been going on for months. I'm still on hold. If it's not sorted today you're losing a customer @virginmedia

  • bobby_harding_ Bobby Harding (@bobby_harding_) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Hi ALG, thanks for the reply, it’s greatly appreciated😊 After a long call with Yodel we’ve found out there was a system error resulting in them having to return to the depot & they will attempt to deliver today. Nevertheless, the problem has been the lack of communication to us.

  • bobby_harding_ Bobby Harding (@bobby_harding_) reported from London, England

    I have just received the most atrocious customer service from @virginmedia ! WiFi was supposed to be here two days ago because it was signed for at the wrong address & I’ve just been told by a supervisor that there’s nothing they could do, thanked me for my time. Then hung up!😡

  • 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 😩😩😩

  • rusblake Russ (@rusblake) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying to help, it’s currently on 54 mins waiting another 8 mins and I’ll get cut off again

  • Gemsy8382 Gemma Sargeant (@Gemsy8382) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Hi, the internet doesn't work full stop. It stops but the white light still shows in the box. She needs an engineer please

  • lordofthedarts1 Michael Flatley (@lordofthedarts1) reported

    @Yuz6Yusof @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp Sounds very similar to my issue. They ended my contract accidentally early. Offered my renewal then error stopped it happening twice. Said they would call me back today, nothing. Oh because they set up my o2 before my virgin it means I've now had to pay for o2 when still in...

  • K__Books Kayleigh {K-Books} (@K__Books) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been on hold for an hour! To get through and get told I’d get a phone call back in 5 mins. That was 15 mins ago! I asked if they needed my number and was told no! This is absolutely unacceptable service!!

  • 07971Wendy WC (@07971Wendy) reported

    @virginmedia Connection issues might be solved in 24 hrs

  • darrencregg1 Darren Cregg (@darrencregg1) reported

    @virginmedia I have been trying to contact you for 2 hours - on hold for an hour twice but cut off both times after an hour. Shocking service. Looks like I'll be searching for a new provider.

  • BLUESKY20 Alexandra Goddard 🇬🇧😈🐰 (@BLUESKY20) reported

    @DogAteMyThesis @virginmedia now been waiting 55 minutes. Had someone answer who has put me back in the queue. His soft skills were non-existent. I have been in customer service 37 years. i despair.

  • Drcox22222 …… (@Drcox22222) reported

    @virginmedia Hi , I’m getting rather sick of your poor Wi-Fi in my house it has become worse since getting your latest router unacceptable and have 500mb of internet

  • Stephen31209501 Stephen Dunning (@Stephen31209501) reported

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract within the 14 day cooling of period . How do I do this ? I have been waiting 24 hours on Whatsapp now. I’m not happy !

  • 0wley Craig Rowley (@0wley) reported

    ME: Hi @virginmedia I’d like to reduce my bill please, I saw an offer, can you match it? VIRGIN: Sure, I can help, how does £29 sound? ME:… that’s more than I’m already paying. VIRGIN: Sorry, give me one last chance to fix this. ME: Okay… VIRGIN: How does £29 sound? ME: 🤦

  • lawler1992 Lawler22 (@lawler1992) reported

    @virginmedia been hung up on today by a overseas call centre. Waiting hours for reply through online chat. Is there a number to contact a local call centre to cancel my package?

  • AFCBdave Dave Stone (@AFCBdave) reported

    @virginmedia @ALANCOPE24 I’m very pleased Alan has cancelled. Perhaps if more Alans cancelled their orders when you fail to resolve your delivery issues your senior managers might take notice and realise that cheapest isn’t always best
