Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia This is a long story. But Virgin have changed my IMEI number making a second repair not possible. My account is down and even Virgin can't access it. I've been promised calls back several times but they've not happened. The litany of Virgin failures is impossible to put in a text

HeyYouItsCorrie (They/Them) (@HeyYouItsCorrie) reported from Rochester, England@suziqvk @virginmedia BT, without a doubt. Virgim media is absolutely useless, bad internet, bad coverage, bad service
-
grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

Helen Dickens (pinknblue):) (@pinknblue) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia hello Merry Christmas. If any one is there today so you know 8f the e mails are down as from early this morning it keeps asking me to put in mu password and then not recognising it but won't let me re set either and I can't send or receive any e mails :(

I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.
-
Marc Gallagher (@marcgallagher82) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia your sales team are the biggest bunch of #fraudsters I’ve ever dealt with! Phone us to offer a better package and you have taken our package and completely messed it all up! #CustomerService at it’s worst! If this is how you treat a loyal customer of 14year, I’m off!
-

There appears to be an issue with my account I have the ultimate ooomph package if that matters.

Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England. @virginmedia down yet again? Not able to watch On Demand and error messages. Plus their website is down. 🙄
-
Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England@westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!

Lol B (@enquiriesdesk) reported@Benleo Virgin Media are honestly useless. Hours and hours wasted on the phone over the years, nothing ever fixed. Staff seem completely incompetent. At one point I was so stressed I thought I was having a heart attack. Shocking service.
-
MykeJD (@MykeJD1) reported@saltyy_savage Virgin media personally as much as they annoy me with their prices, they have always been the most reliable, they have issues now and then but generally it works. Recently I was paying around 90 odd for gigabit, all sports, all uhd managed to get 500 now keep all sports for 72
-
Phykell (@phykell) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Doesn’t surprise me one bit. Definitely the worst brand as well.
-
Ollyp3 (@ollyp3) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Wait - you have to stay on a contract or cancel. Why can't they just cancel what you were sold, give you the compensation (which they are legally required to on Ofcom auto compensation anyway for lost connectivity) and fix your service urgently. I cannot believe you are being held to a missed contract without the perks of said contract! Apalling
-
AirDribblePrick (@AirDribblePrick) reported@garyb007 @Benleo They couldn't care less about loyalty, that's why all the new customers get the best deals and loyal customers end up paying double. **** @virginmedia scum company.
-
Ian 🇬🇧 (@nightrider20244) reported@Benleo @CherryFaves0 @virginmedia They are useless the call centre staff are clueless I was only trying to be able to log into account on line and change bank details with them still never got it done all time I was with them I had to ring up every month to pay bill the only thing they understand is taking money
-
Geoff Jones (@geoffjones7) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I was a service engineer for many years for Virgin (formally Telewest). You most certainly do not have to renew a contract to get a cable fixed. Also the Indian call centre has been a long-standing issue for their customers. Very poor service
-
stepHen (@UTLR1888) reported@virginmedia Do you require any further help?
-
Rough Shuffle 🔀 (@Rough_Shuffle) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I recently had to contact them. Their CS is the worst ever experienced. It's like it's ran entirely by 12 year olds on work experience. I'm horrified at how bad it is. Initially contacted because of a litany of f'ups on their part. CS seems completely dethatched from the company.

An tsean bhean bhocht 🇮🇪🇵🇱 (@CrimhthanMor) reported@crt_dean @TheAmanuensis @MalachySteenson They actually tend to be handpicked from state funded media, which is literally every media outlet in the country to be honest, Gript is an exception, I'm sure there are others but most are in some way or other recieving state support. Even Virgin media got handouts.
