    @virginmedia I've been a customer with you for 21 years and your customer service is not great, I'm paying through the roof for my package, the wifi is crap sometimes, your team has offered to take my bill down £20, but when I mentioned about replacing my hub, that will cost £35

  • _SimonChapman Simon Chapman (@_SimonChapman) reported from Rochester, England

    @RenaCrossley @virginmedia Nope! They are absolutely useless. By far one of the worst customer services you will ever find

  • claighton89 Claigh Young (@claighton89) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia have the absolute worst customer service going! Have once again made a **** up with our bill, even after speaking to (and being lied to by) 3 different people on the phone! Absolute joke of a company!!!

  • claighton89 Claigh Young (@claighton89) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia Media Services. We were offered a deal back in July which was all sports, movies and kids channels for around £111. Since then we have had our wifi and box and each time I call about one of these issues you clear the deal from our account. This month billing us £215!!!

  • MrG48 Mr.G - Longy - Graham (@MrG48) reported from Gillingham, England

    @JessReeves @virginmedia I’d also need a new aerial erected as my one blew down many storms ago - actually if I don’t have an aerial why am I paying bbc tv licence

  • claighton89 Claigh Young (@claighton89) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia Each month I've had to make subsequent phone calls to have you rectify the bill. I called 2 or 3 times before this bill came out and was assured that it would not happen again. And as expected it has. Absolutely disgusting service!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • claireguy Claire Guy (@claireguy) reported

    @virginmedia 5.5 hours and I raised a complaint via the CEO - all sorted now - actually some one who listened and understood the issue. It’s embarrassing for you as a company that the staff are not correctly trained or just have no clue what they are doing.

  • BobbyOven Bobby Oven (@BobbyOven) reported

    @virginmedia Main issues: 5G on hub isn't working properly & you have increased the price by 15%. The only way for me to challenge it is spend literally hours waiting. I went to new customer web chat & got straight through> put me onto existing customer line> waited 4hrs & didn't get through

  • 67ives karen ann ivory (@67ives) reported

    @virginmedia can anybody at Virgin tell me what the hell is going on with my broadband? Over a week now and my 17 year old missing lessons due to your appalling service

  • Magikillaz Mick Naylor (@Magikillaz) reported

    @virginmedia fix the speeds I'm paying for 10 mb connection that should be 350mb. This is no joke and I'm not staying with a company that clearly doesn't care. My router will not reset and also I can't phone because I have to use wi-fi calling due to my crappy service. Old help

  • Jathurson2 JJ (@Jathurson2) reported

    Yo @virginmedia fix your ******* wifi

  • IfyAlexis Ify Alexis Lee (@IfyAlexis) reported

    @virginmedia hi, our signal has been so poor over the last couple of weeks. It keeps crashing. We’ve tried turning it on and off again. What can be done?

  • LornaHay2511 Lorna Hay (@LornaHay2511) reported

    @virginmedia Frustrated? Did you look up the complaint yet. No sim. No ability to work. And I have a disability. Virgin admitted fault. How soon can you send a phone?

    @virginmedia Trying to cancel my contract due to high cost and poor connection. Spoke with an agent, put on hold to be transferred to disconnections and then cut off. Can you please contact me ASAP.
