-
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

TM. (@1tninetyfour) reportedFriday evening and my internet is down.. Virgin Media you will crumble! I pay too much for this foolishness 😒
-
👾 (@Omersaeela) reportedHi @virginmedia my account has been locked and I’ve been trying to contact support for over 3 hours with no response. I urgently need help because I’m trying to set up my new WiFi device. Calls are not being answered either. Terrible customer service 👎
-
Sheps (@ShepsSW19) reported@virginmedia no Internet or WiFi for 6 weeks. Spent 12+ hours on the phone to customer services on numerous occasions. Promised a cable installation on 3 seperate occasions now, not once has someone turned up. Lies. Broken promises and woeful customer service. Not good enough 😡
-
RogerSmithUpInThisBitch (@JustAnAlienOk) reported@virginmedia Estimated fix time 13th May is ridiculous. What’s the point of spending that much money if it always stops working every month?
-
Paul🦦 (@p_e_l_4) reported@virginmedia is 5 hours waiting for your cancellation team standard procedure? Absolutely ridiculous customer service. You should be investigated and fined for this. Never going back to your services ever
-
Teddy (@ChokeLever) reported@giffgaff Tbh I didn’t chose @virginmedia because their reviews are poor. I should’ve known better as it was still their engineer who failed to show up. #Frustrating, but for #giffgaff not to have any means of rectifying the issue is unacceptable. I am being penalised as a result.
-
Hatz (@DevilHatman) reported@virginmedia what on earth is going on? My upload speed has been dogshit since Friday/Saturday. Today along it's dropped from about 25mb/s to less than 10mb/s. All your site says is "intermittent issues in the area"... which is so regular its utterly redundant now
-
Chip Lewis (@crispinlewis) reported@virginmedia , trying to contact you to cancel, downgrade or renew contract?! It’s urgent anyone going to answer phone?! Web chat doesn’t work! What is going on?!
-
Nethers (@Nethers_x) reported@virginmedia my WiFi is down, 2 people can’t work.
-
Chris Hobbs (@obbsie) reported@virginmedia getting slaughtered on 'X' re customer service. Customers have been trying for literally hours to get through. I'm approaching 30 minutes as I've just seen what my new monthly bill is & am being told that unless I install a new box, I'll be cut off. It's the same muzak over & over again.
