  • BrazilArteUK BrazilArte (@BrazilArteUK) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I’ve been waiting in all day for a package. For them not to deliver as they couldn’t ring the door bell. @virginmedia please don’t use @YodelOnline anymore they are the worst company ever.

  • CathRoseBiebTWx CatherineRosex (@CathRoseBiebTWx) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia my grandads phone hasn’t worked in a week! He doesn’t have any of his phone numbers, so can’t contact anyone other than me! I don’t live close so can’t help him!He’s 78 with no phone and you told him I don’t know when it’ll be fixed! Terrible service!

  • yiddo71 Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia the worst customer service ever!!

  • thebooooooth Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    So @virginmedia lie to you and then don't respond to you or follow up your phone request to make a complaint. Why did i ever leave Sky! The service has been shocking, wouldn't recommend Virgin to anyone

  • coxychris chris cox (@coxychris) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I hope you are going to compensate people for these issues. Mines been like this for weeks so much so that I thought it was the super hub. Looks like I may leave I’m June service is awful

  • Peter_AFC_ J.C (@Peter_AFC_) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia would someone please be able to contact me. Having WiFi issues think HUB needs replacing. Unable to call in as closed and chat system having no luck. Need WiFi to work from home.

  • TylerTowers Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) reported from Gillingham, England

    40 minutes on hold (so far)for @virginmedia’ customer service. Whilst loads of online options to “solve your problem” when you get through on the phone and told they need to transfer my call, you do hope they are on the case! Why did I ever leave Sky - a false economy

  • Coxy009 Ben Cox (@Coxy009) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia my internet connection is still being affected by the issue you had a few days ago! This is not good enough and I expect better.

  • jeffdance1 . (@jeffdance1) reported

    @virginmedia I accepted the FREE 12 months stated in the email then I get an email stating my bill is going up because of it. I've tried to cancel it and go back to my original contract but your CS call centre didn't help

  • NatHolborow Natalie Ann Holborow (@NatHolborow) reported

    @virginmedia This is happening so often though, how am I meant to do my work...? Also are you going to be reimbursing people for the amount of time it's been going down?

  • dalotos Clan MacArthur (@dalotos) reported

    @virginmedia Why are you asking if u can't help? I recorded every call and have evicence of them saying they would A) close the contract and B)send a verification email

  • GordonsTaxis Gordon (@GordonsTaxis) reported

    @richardbranson just to say your customer support system at Virgin Media is the absolute worst I've ever had to deal with. 4 hours spent yesterday on whatsapp with no joy, and hour and half this morning and still nothing. It's ridiculous

  • steelersstats Robert D. Newbolt (@steelersstats) reported

    @virginmedia do you know that i cannot access emails in S12 have tried on website and it is also down

  • AmandaJane100 MandyMoo (@AmandaJane100) reported

    @virginmedia You give the same reply to everyones comment, yet your customer service is still appalling . How are some customers getting a deal now, when I have been told to wait until May?

  • rob_b103 Rob (@rob_b103) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, this is where I see the problem...204...didn't realise there was another way

  • jenmd1984 Jen Davies (@jenmd1984) reported

    @virginmedia So a 25% increase for me is a 10% for someone else…… hardly seems fair considering you know nothing about my outgoings? What ever happened to customer loyalty??? 🤔🤔🤔

  • WeTurnedNight Justin Robert Price (@WeTurnedNight) reported

    @virginmedia First appointment on Thursday booked via website - link received, but no turn up. Call centre said arrange for next day between 1-4, no link set, no turn up. Spoke to call centre judt and apparently service disruption locally however when checked no outage. 4pm will know if fixed

  • laynimari laynimari (@laynimari) reported

    @virginmedia I have read reviews on the App Store. Access for virgin media customers to O2 Priority is an ongoing problem experienced by many. How can it be fixed?
