    @virginmedia @NetflixUK You may as well not have a customer services team. I’ve spoken to one helpful person in the 53 days I’ve been chasing Virgin for my install.

    @virginmedia I have not looked on my account but I will. Your service is a complete joke. Meanwhile I’m paying the top level price for internet speed! It’s unbelievable really. My monthly bill is £139. At least **** Turpin wore a mask when he robbed people. @richardbranson

    Was incredibly annoyed at service from @virginmedia today. After sending back the old equipment 6 weeks ago, we received an email saying we were going to be charged for not sending it back. I called up 10 days ago and was told the charge would be removed and not to worry...

    @virginmedia more of your appalling customer service!!!! Spend over 90 minutes on your chat help “service” trying to resolve an issue and your agent takes a break. When he returns and I don’t reply as I’m getting lunch I get cut off. And guess what?

    Just want to recommend that people don’t go with @virginmedia for their broadband I’ve been trying to leave for 2 weeks and ‘they’re very sorry to hear that how can we help ?’ Just let me cancel for goodness sake’s

  • KpRoebuck
    Spider (@KpRoebuck) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia I have twice called to discuss the price of my package & twice, after eventually speaking to someone, they attempt to transfer me to customer services but cut me off. I've been with Virgin for over a decade but I'm being penalised for my loyalty. Please help

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Come on! This is as lazy as your customer service. Of course I have service.

    Seems @virginmedia is having issues again and my father can’t get into emails at the moment. So told him to leave it. He even complained about not getting any spam emails.

    @virginmedia I'll try to sign in with a different email address.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia It seems like nobody @ Virgin is willing to intervene and sort this out. As a result Virgin just keep setting install dates and cancelling. The cycle repeats over and over. Customer service don’t help, despite me calling everyday.

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    Oh it's broadband price hike time again!! You can almost guarantee @virginmedia will try and increase the broadband prices by more than the CPI figures, then drop it back down as soon as you phone up and mention the word "Sky" EVERY. BLOODY. TIME. #MartinLewis

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia You’re not helping. You’re asking the same questions you ask every day. Yes, complaint raised. No, Virgin have given no reason why they keep cancelling. Next you’ll tell me you can’t do anything to help, which is exactly what your customer services say

  • leeradcliffe73
    lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp how long do I have to keep paying you a fortune for a terrible internet service which only works when you’re sat next to the router. Crap service as per usual😡😡

  • FunkyChipster

    @virginmedia I'd like some help here

  • simonnewby
    Simon Newby (@simonnewby) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I do have a reference bit this is exactly the standard (or total lack) of service I have received for the last 4 weeks, hence the open complaint. Not one person from Virgin has contacted me in any way in that time, despite at least weekly promises like this one.

  • Stueelouis
    Stuart Palmer (@Stueelouis) reported from Gosport, England

    @virginmedia I submitted a complaint form yesterday and I’m still waiting for a response, @virginmedia how long does it take please?

    @virginmedia spoke to your customer service team in regards to my bill. I'm still waiting for my email to say that this month's bill is wrong and to send the correct one. Its been more than 24 hours since I spoke to them.

    I have released all audio tapes of my many calls since April 30 and will be collating them for the nation to see how @virginmedia treat their customers and breach consumer law.

    @virginmedia Hi there, my problems are still unresolved and even your "Resolutions" team is blanking me. I need confirmation that we're at the end of the road so I can go to the regulator. How can I get this pls?
