    @GeorgeMonbiot @timolarch @VodafoneUK My husband had the same problem with Virgin Media after the death of his father. He was given the number of the ‘bereavement department’ and he phoned, assuming they would help. Instead the woman demanded his father’s PIN and said only he could cancel!

    @virginmedia I rang pre installs 3 times last week, spending an average of 1hr on the phone, getting no where nobody in preinstalls can tel me what’s going on, they just promise to get someone to call me. That call never happens

  • 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

    Trevor Webb (@WebbTowers) reported from Hedge End, England

    Hi Is there a problem in the SO30 area? @virginmedia

  • 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.

  • tw17_09
    Tom Weise (@tw17_09) reported from Locks Heath, England

    @virginmedia cut off by Jack. 1 hour spent on hold today, 3 online conversations dropped. Told I am allowed to cancel for free, then I have to pay to cancel. Told my price is going up, told it isn’t. Which is it? Get in touch with me. I don’t want my next call with @Ofcom instead

  • DIZZYDJC
    Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    @virginmedia It's both. I have been doing some digging and it's the upload speeds. They are not getting anywhere over 2MB /sec which is not good enough. It has been very slow over the last couple of days

  • obcans

    @virginmedia I fail to see wot difference that make my Wi-Fi is rubbish my Internet drops in and out all the time I have hours on the phone with people and it's still the same I want something done about it 😫

  • 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

  • sarahmvaughan
    Cllr Sarah M Vaughan (@sarahmvaughan) reported from Southampton, England

    2/2 @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp @VMSolutions_ We have waited patiently for 48 hours for Virgin to fix. If you do not resolve today, we will get an electrician to repair and send Virgin the invoice. There is no customer service or H&S for your customers.

    Kind of ironic, everything down nationwide for #virginmedia the only thing up is the prices #VirginMediaoutage

  • formula1girl
    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I “chatted” last week. Your only solution was me paying for a service I cancelled. I “chatted” yesterday to both departments that could apparently help. Neither could unless I paid for a service I cancelled. More chat? Which department this time??

  • Danzy92
    Craig (@Danzy92) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, I’ve checked everyday and despite signing up for text updates about this issue, I’ve heard nothing despite being 48 hours after the date it was supposed to be fixed. Not even a further text so confirm a delay. Could you provide any update to the SO15 postcode issue?

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

    @virginmedia Every one of your engineers that I’ve spoken to have also warned me that your customer service is diabolical. The only truth I’ve been told by a Virgin rep

    lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Southampton, England

    @VMO2News @virginmedia @goodthingsfdn All the money we pay for this awful broadband is a joke. Oh just get the plug in booster for an extra £5 a month this will help!!! 2m from the router and can’t even send this. 3G is better than virgin. Bring on toob 🕺🏻

    Veteran Locksmiths (@vetlocksmith) reported from Fareham, England

    @virginmedia your broadband connection is disgusting, we have called to be told that we need to wait 24 hrs to see if there is an issue. Not good enough this is now affecting my business for my staff !!

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sorry, mate, but Virgin Media has the worst customer service I've experienced in my 54 years on this planet. They've got over 100,000 reviews on Trustpilot with an average rating of 1.5/5. That should tell you all you need to know. I cannot wait for my contract to end.

    @virginmedia This company is a complete and utter shambles. Still no Wi-Fi, still no broadband, still no TV, still no one answering phones. No basic information from the company with the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.
