  • Jezsuttonuk Jez Sutton (@Jezsuttonuk) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia Spent all of my lunch time finding out why the engineer didn’t turn up this morning only to be let down on a call back at 5:30 this evening.. utterly useless

  • shannelchauhan Shannel - mummy of twins (@shannelchauhan) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia had issues for years......so many calls logged. Wifi doesnt cover whole house and is intermittent all day. Its frustrating. Just logging another call now. Used so much mobile data due to these issues. Never had an issue in this house until virgin.

  • PRBloke Clive Reeves (@PRBloke) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Lionbites @virginmedia @SkyUK You’re very picky. We had no broadband service from @virginmedia yesterday morning and no phone yesterday evening. 20 minutes to answer a phone call. I think they’re all challenged for customer service

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    So I left @virginmedia over 18 months ago as they tried to rip off a loyal customer and had no customer service experience or knowledge at all. I thought I'd give them another chance just by grabbing a sim only deal as the offer was attracting. say no more, Sim cancelled!

  • Wrightgal80 Kate Wright ◣ ◢ (@Wrightgal80) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BloxwichWolf @virginmedia They are beyond crap!

  • licklemouse Stuart Cockerill (@licklemouse) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just wasted a whole hour sat on the phone with someone who had less than an a basic understanding of English what a waste of time only to be sent a new TiVo box who knows of this will work as she spent more time speaking to her work mates awful experience 😡

  • nigeyp Nigel P Harris (@nigeyp) reported from Birmingham, England

    Sick of the shit customer service in the uk. 3 calls to @virginmedia trying to get them to repay a credit & after being put on hold for 10mins they hang up each time. #Useless #virginmedia

  • ben_velo79 Ben hunter (@ben_velo79) reported from Kenilworth, England

    @virginmedia possibly the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced #shocking #cancelmycontractnow

  • Jezsuttonuk Jez Sutton (@Jezsuttonuk) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia Please don’t try to diagnose a router fault on Twitter... just get your dismal support team to replace the router, which I have been trying for 8 months

  • markhipwell1990 Mark Hipwell (@markhipwell1990) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia So now I have to ring to cancel because that's too much or give you a chance to fix the price. Both take time out of my day when we only did this less then 2 months ago.

  • philwowski Philky (@philwowski) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia been on hold to cs for 20+ minutes. No tv service. Intermittent service for the last 4/5 weeks. I just want to watch tv. I pay £100s /yr and yet not getting the service expected. I think I will have to contact Sky for a comparison sad after 15 years

  • ainsworth_neil Neil M Ainsworth (@ainsworth_neil) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia No my wife works from home 2 days a week. She constantly gets logged out. No help from customer service. I have the agents ref number and the rough time of the call. Very disappointed

  • lukiee Luke T (@lukiee) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Still go having issues :(

  • licklemouse Stuart Cockerill (@licklemouse) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia So what happens now or am I being stupid or have you just left me in limbo like the phone call !!!

  • EmmaOohLaLa Emmie❤️🌹 (@EmmaOohLaLa) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia I’m not happy tbh. I’ve always called on behalf of my mum in regards to technical issues as I set up account for them. I do all the calls regarding this and your colleague Avanash wouldn’t talk to me. Never had an issue till now, and I’ve had to wait 20 mins on hold for an answer

  • Jezsuttonuk Jez Sutton (@Jezsuttonuk) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia so I take a day off work to sort out the Crap Virgin Broadband and at 10am it fails. Virgin can’t send out an engineer for 2 days !! Don’t get virgin they are crap

  • gmb_sarahjames Sarah James (@gmb_sarahjames) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Really disappointed with @virginmedia call centre staff this evening, asking 10 times in the space of 20 minutes to speak to a supervisor to resolve an issue is not good enough

  • kittykatrollins Helen Rollins (@kittykatrollins) reported from Birmingham, England

    Poor customer service from @virginmedia this morning. Phoned to discuss fraudulent callers to my landline. First advise was to call #TPS, I carefully explained that I was already registered with them. He then said, let me give you a number. I diligently wrote it down. Who’s that

  • Jezsuttonuk Jez Sutton (@Jezsuttonuk) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia Engineer failed to turn up for his 8-12 appointment typical crap service we are accustomed too..

  • Griffomiester Stuart (@Griffomiester) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Have a word with yourself, this has been going on for 12 months. How about you send an engineer to fix once and for all

  • billeighhh billeigh (@billeighhh) reported

    @virginmedia Absolute joke, why is there not more than 1 way to report issues? It seems like you guys make it as hard as possible to get anything resolved. Such a shame so close to Christmas as well
