  TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported 2 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

  Stephen Cobb, #FBPE 🇺🇦 (@zcobb) reported 5 minutes ago from Coventry, England

  I just spent about 20 minutes trying to find out why I'm getting email from @virginmedia about a SIM that I didn't order. As far as I can tell, the email is legit and Virgin is sending me, and a lot of other people, a replacement SIM "to improve service." Did I miss a memo?

  @virginmedia having issues with Wi-Fi at home and your websites including the one on service status checks are not loading? As a result I can’t even report the problem.

  Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported 13 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

  Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported 13 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

  @KellyQuilt @virginmedia Virgin are hopeless for ease of contact. My daughter was with them and the service wasn’t at all good. This nonsense about calling them at a time to suit them is just ludicrous. They need to admit that they (& others) don’t staff adequately to suit their customers convenience. 🤬

  Martin Price (@mrmjprice) reported 16 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.

  Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area?

• 
  IAACCTV Limited (@iaacctvuk) reported 32 minutes ago from West Bromwich, England

  @virginmedia broadband down again from Virginmedia Common theme these days

• 
  Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported 35 minutes ago from West Bromwich, England

  @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

  Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported 37 minutes ago from Solihull, England

  @virginmedia hi I was on a web chat last Sunday my TV was meant to be fixed by yesterday but it’s still not working & my other box is playing up now as well as the internet it’s been a month now & im paying a lot of money for a service I’m just not getting

  @virginmedia I received my new 500+mps broadband only to get 6mps on my phone in my room. The Router is Terrible and cannot send the speed to devices via wifi. Not Good for anyone

• 
  Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported 41 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia And this is why, I'll be reporting you to trading standards for fraudulent misselling/misrepresentation and then abdicating ALL responsibility/accountability to resolve. There's no security/DPA issues in you giving me a direct dial number via DM. You just don't want to resolve.

• 
  shanny C 🌹 (@_shannonC) reported 44 minutes ago from Solihull, England

  @virginmedia haha you mean the same forum where they didn’t answer me for days last time, and they didn’t resolve anything???? waste of time. they told me to check the speed and check for area issues. absolutely awful customer service when i’ve been complaining about this for WEEKS now.

  Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported 45 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

• 
  Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported 50 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  Ended up just reconnecting my TP Link router, it seems the problems were with my Hub 5 because everything seems to be working fine now. Not great @virginmedia

• 
  John (@jfrncs_) reported 59 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.

  @virginmedia I am waiting for a phone call from your rep. Will contact you if problem not solved, so far not happy with the response with your service

  Ofcom has fined Virgin Media O2 £28 million after concluding that, over a prolonged period, many customers faced unnecessary obstacles when trying to cancel their services.

  💙Susan Robinson 🌹🐞💙🐝🐈🐈🐝💙 (@hatetorycuts) reported 6 minutes ago

  @Stsantek @virginmedia So sorry you e switched to EE they’re among the biggest scoundrels of broadband suppliers Disconnected my landline then gave number away Total **** up but no apology & threaten me with £100 exit fee I hate the leeching bastards Look for a smaller more independent company

• 
  Andy (@andyosb) reported 6 minutes ago

  @Ofcom @virginmedia did exactly the same thing to me back in 2019! It was - and still is - the worst customer service experience of my life (and I'm now 65). I was just so relieved to escape them eventually. They're utter scum. Do yourself a favour & don't go anywhere near this company

• 
  Pazuzu (@Craig_Higgins) reported 6 minutes ago

  Hey @virginmedia we've recently just renegotiated our internet with yourselves after the price became completely unaffordable but based on the news Ofcom has found you guilty of deliberately mishandling customer calls, was this an unwise move?

• 
  Lyn Prodger (she/her) (@Prodgey) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia once again I have sent a DM as requested about my complaint with no response. Is this part of the ignoring customer correspondence scandal?

•

  @ToddCoxeter @virginmedia Prime signed me up to some channel and I never asked for it

• 
  Victor (@winningearly) reported 14 minutes ago

  Virgin Media O2 has acknowledged that its customer service fell below expected standards during the period investigated. The company says it has since made significant improvements to its cancellation processes, customer service operations and staff training.

  Michael Cuddington (@cuddy271) reported 20 minutes ago

  @Ofcom I am told there is more strife coming down the line for @virginmedia they have a 360 tv box which customers hate becauseof its many problems and many want out .

  @virginmedia why over 24 hours to fix an outage. What’s the deal with the broadband EN3.
