  @virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL

  @virginmedia hey. I am trying to speak to someone about my account but turns out nobody recognises my account number. Can you PM me to organise calling me please. I've tried the text message service

• 
  John (@jfrncs_) reported 6 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

  And just like that my @virginmedia is off again, no internet whatsoever. Embarrassing service from them, very disappointed and frustrated.

  @virginmedia TV completely down this morning ,it’s been intermittent since September nobody helps me just fobbed off. Who is the ombudsman over you I can complain to? I’m no longer prepared to keep paying for services I’m not getting.

  @JLDawson1989 @virginmedia For the purpose of a better service as well. Joke

  @virginmedia what is going on B31 5 still without Broadband & TV from 11am and now being told fix is 12pm tomorrow. I have been unable to work all day & now problem is going in to tomorrow. This is unacceptable & I hope refunds for loss of service will be applied to all accounts.

  @virginmedia right I’ve had issues for nearly a month I’ve done the link there’s a problem with the TV box please can I speak to a human ? This is seriously taking the mick now

  Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported 32 minutes ago from Sheldon, England

  @virginmedia I don’t think so I’m still getting distorted TV on a few channels it’s frustrating as my complaint never gets recified I’ve spent hours on end trying to get it sorted

  Stephen Blyth (@steveblyth) reported 32 minutes ago from Stockingford, England

  Yep. Down twice in one day. @virginmedia

• 
  Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported 33 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

  Troy (@tr0y1291) reported 40 minutes ago from West Bromwich, England

  @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

• 
  Martin Price (@mrmjprice) reported 51 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia I have been but they couldn’t get a good-enough price and directed me to the self-service page but I get “customer-exclusion” at the end of the URL which tells me to use chat.

• 
  Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported 53 minutes ago from West Bromwich, England

  Quite possibly the worst onboarding and customer 'care' experience I've EVER had @virginmedia Unfulfilled promises, failure to deliver contract as agreed and now I'm 'lost' in the system and being ignored. I'm left with no choice other than to 'out' you. #CaveatEmptor

  Sharon Grimes (@sharongrimes1) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’m not a customer of your co but sub contractors for your co rudely knocked on my door this morning to move my car. Should I not been notified of works carried out. What if I was not in, and there was damage to my car?

  @virginmedia I have more problems with your Virgin 360. When I'm watching a programme that is also being recorded. When I change channel during the adverts and then turn back it won't let me rewind! The old software let me do this from 2017-2026... Why did you remove so many features?

It remains on Freeview (for now) but is said to be suffering financial problems.

  @virginmedia I signed up to a new broadband service and the hib was due to be sent yesterday but I cant call to speak to anyone or log into a virgin account as I dont have an account number yet. Can you help?

  Just about had enough of this company and haven't even been connected yet ! Engineers turning up on wrong day or not at all ! Customer servicea shockingly hard to understand! And pretty useless , last chance tomorrow before I cancel transfer @virginmedia

  Darren Danks (@thedazdanks) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’m sure I’m not the only one who doesn’t have their phone next to their hub. What if an elderly customer has phone and hub in separate rooms but need the phone as part of their care and wellbeing. Would your advice still be to just move one of them?
