    @virginmedia please please can someone help me. I left virgin in October and have had several calls to say I didn't ask to. Now they are threatening me with debt recovery. Is this correct

  • Mashcat

    @virginmedia Hi no - the link is broken and chat says up to 4 hour wait 🙈 .. please just want to order the booster please

  • ReeceBryan94

    @virginmedia when are we going to finally have some functional WiFi service from yourself? 3/4 days constant issues... pathetic

  • Mashcat
    Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia I’ll try calling again tomorrow and go through to cancellations.. if they won’t sort I’ll leave .. I’ve only ever had them too - never used another provider 🙈

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

    Mark Powell (@Mark_D_Powell) reported from Doncaster, England

    @virginmedia very poor service. I want to watch the game NOW. But you say contact you if the problem isn’t resolved in 24 hours???!! What am I paying for?

  • Mashcat
    Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia It admits it’s not working .. says my coverage of a **** .. then offers to fix it for another £60/year .. same week they send me a letter to say my bill is increasing anyway .. clearly forgotten we’re in a pandemic!!!

  • ReeceBryan94
    Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to start issuing people the Hub 4 as the SH3 is useless for delivering wifi. Doesn’t help that you seem to be constantly having issues and massive speed problems over the last month. Any chance of us actually getting a service that we pay for?!

  • ianpnaylor
    Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Only have broadband but it causes streaming issues. Service been terribly disrupted now for a couple of months.

    @virginmedia I test through a wired connection, i have already sent a complaint form with all the details on the online portal.

  • ReeceBryan94
    Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to provide a functional service? Having to constantly reboot your pile of **** “Superhub 3” multiple times a day because you’re saying that’s the fault... what exactly am I paying for? #Virginmediaisshite

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia so. I left virgin media in October after 19 years, not that I wanted to. I just was fed up of new customers getting a better deal. Now I keep getting billed and its up to £150. How can I stop this. Been on the phone 20mins but had to put it down 😤😤😤

  • AbigailBriggs_
    Abigail Briggs (@AbigailBriggs_) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia The estimated fix time was 8pm last night, then 10pm, then 12am and now it is 4pm. Will it be fixed by this time, or will it just be put back again?

  • ianpnaylor
    Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

  • Helen_Claire71
    Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England

    Recently renegotiated my contract with @virginmedia just received notification that they are billing me for 50% more than was agreed. Called them and they cannot explain why, and have registered my complaint and someone will call me at some point in the next 48 hours. Scandalous

  • liaryredhead
    Angelina Perrett (@liaryredhead) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia - 3 scam phone calls this morning from a company impersonating Virgin Media- by the third time they were just plan rude when I would not respond

  • Mark_D_Powell
    Mark Powell (@Mark_D_Powell) reported from Doncaster, England

    Awful customer service from @virginmedia auto select on the phone. No solutions. No service - but wait 24 hours? I will not be a customer in 2021.

  • AbigailBriggs_
    Abigail Briggs (@AbigailBriggs_) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia my 80yo Grandma has been without use of her phone for almost 24 hours. This has been reported and the automated message keeps saying will be resolved by a certain time, but that time keeps getting put back. Unable to speak to an actual person. Can you help?

    @RealSplinterUK @GBNEWS That’s not Virgin Media — that’s the awful production of the Tory news channel GBNews- it’s full of issues, apparently they don’t have any production engineers so it goes tits up

  • mcnultyc4

    @virginmedia your customer service is appalling! I’m trying to report a suspect fraud and no one is willing to help me!! Your customer service is disgusting

  • sdewar12
    Steven Dewar (@sdewar12) reported

    @virginmedia Well thanks again you have completely ignored my problem as a customer. Its clear from all the interactions ive had with you you dont care about your customers. I will make sure to tell anyone who will listen that they shouldnt enter a contract with you or leave asap.

  • simone_nepa
    simone nepa (@simone_nepa) reported

    @virginmedia Raised already and just received an email informing me that my complain Is closed and I can contact Cisas if I want my complain reviewed. So I need to spend more time for your incompetency an unrespectful way to treat your customers.

  • GmkRossetti
    Gabriella Rossetti (@GmkRossetti) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, I had 4 phone calls to the technical team in broadband. Each time they confirmed I was eligible but told me they couldn’t do it from their end. Each time they tried to “put me through” to another department (mobile, oomph, customer services), it was a dead end.

  • CharlotteePayne
    Charlotte Hunt (@CharlotteePayne) reported

    @virginmedia After raising our complaint, someone was supposed to call us back on Thursday evening but we still haven’t heard anything! I am appalled. #CustomerService #virginmedia

    @dermotsmith @drphilhammond I've just remembered that a few years ago the government changed the law, to require UK internet service providers, to keep users data for year. Whoever is his ISP (such as virgin media, BT, Talk Talk, Vodaphone etc), will have the records!
