  • Linnyjolz62 Lynn Jolly (@Linnyjolz62) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Held on for 45 mins on Friday and today. Was told there were "communication issues" on Friday and the guy I was speaking to said he'd call me back straightaway on my landline. He didn't. I tried again today to be told they couldn't access the system and that I should call again.

  • BaggieBirdd66 ✿𝘓𝘢𝘥𝘺𝘑𝘢𝘪✿💙🤍🌟 (@BaggieBirdd66) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hi I need some help please. I need a box installed at my address and I'm hard of hearing so I find it difficult to use the phone. Is there any way I can book a engineer appointment online as that is easier for me. Thanks

  • FleeDoubleE Paul McDonough (@FleeDoubleE) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia Get this page after I log onto my account page. Which I'm trying to log onto so I can do a service check. I've cleared the cache and tried from my laptop get the same outcome

  • JackieScott_ Jackie Scott (@JackieScott_) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia where do I send a complaint to make sure I'm heard rather than repeatedly disconnected? #Frustration

  • pedrofouruk Pedro Oliveira (@pedrofouruk) reported from Birmingham, England

    I wanted to cancel my contract with @virginmedia but no ones answering the calls.. terrible costumer service. @MartinSLewis @virginmedia

  • SurfWorks Chris Parkes (@SurfWorks) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to renew my media contract. I have been a Virgin customer since 2009. Any chance of getting someone to call me to sort this out?

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Is there an email address I can use instead? I can just tell them the address and send the photos and explain the problem. They turn up whenever and fix it (its on the street, so no one needs to be home) I’ve taped up the lower parts, but up higher it is hanging over a shop sign.

  • jodii_ox Jodie (@jodii_ox) reported from Birmingham, England

    Hi @virginmedia, according to your website there’s no broad band issues in the B23 area but there definitely is 🙃

  • carol_dd6 Carol Dickinson (@carol_dd6) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Another lie I was told then! Apparently they were sending transcripts from 2 online chats yesterday and 1 from today. I’m really disappointed with Virgin, I expect better customer service from such a big company.

  • jodii_ox Jodie (@jodii_ox) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The internet is completely down, tried numerous restarts from the mains

  • pdtathome paul taylor (@pdtathome) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I have a persistent broadband issue and can't contact customer support via the web site #help

  • AshokWhybother Ashok Patel (@AshokWhybother) reported from Birmingham, England

    Why is virgin media in Walmley Sutton Coldfield Birmingham not working?

  • willcooling Will Cooling (@willcooling) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia your TV Go App doesn't ******* work. Won't accept my login. Won't let me change it. Won't let me register a new account. ******* joke

  • adtatton Andrew Tatton 🔰 #GlazersOut 🔰 (@adtatton) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia poor doesn’t come anywhere near the description needed for the service you provide for a long term customer who simply needs the OLD Superhub 2ac router replacing. I simply need a replacement sent quickly but must wait for an engineer on Tuesday 4th January.

  • karengwilliams Karen Gwilliams (@karengwilliams) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for asking, I haven’t tried to log in since. Got sorted on the phone eventually but it shouldn’t take 2 hours to speak to a customer service rep.

  • Reansnana Kate (@Reansnana) reported

    Oh God I'm so stupid! It was @virginmoney, not @virginmedia #seniormoment #coveredinconfusion

  • RichSith Rich (@RichSith) reported

    @virginmedia Please don’t say I never contacted Yodel. I’ve already told you that I have tried but have had no response to my issue. I’m banging my head against a brick wall with this! 😡

  • CalRoddy14 Callum Roddy (@CalRoddy14) reported

    How ******** do you get through to @virginmedia been trying for 2 days.

  • JamieWGN JN (@JamieWGN) reported

    @virginmedia forcing Customers to call their 0345 number at £0.50/minute with a 40-60min wait time if they want to change/renew/cancel their contract. So £20-£30 for customer service. What a disgrace!

  • WeeIrenee Irene combe (@WeeIrenee) reported

    @virginmedia can I cancel my broadband contract online or by email? I have tried all weekend to talk to someone. Just been cut off after 1 hour & 20 mins! Help!

  • didithitthespot Altered Beast (@didithitthespot) reported

    @virginmedia I think it was the Tech himself and when i said im not sure what to tell him he tried to make me sound stupid. Also when i explained im about to start a work call and cant discuss he was dismissive and rude. Just pathetic.

  • SunOnLeith SunOnLeith (@SunOnLeith) reported

    @virginmedia The fact you have to phone twice to get through to somebody (first time is always an auto help and resets your device). A minimum of 50 minutes to speak to somebody, and that's per 'I'll put you through'. Also having to clear security and explain problem each person you talk to.

  • colvin_brenda Brenda Colvin (@colvin_brenda) reported

    @virginmedia I have had intermittent broadband access since signing up for your services a few months ago and now I can’t even contact anyone by phone or through chat to discuss. I am working from home and need a stable connection. Can someone please help resolve this problem?!

  • xxxxbrother The Brother (@xxxxbrother) reported

    @virginmedia Who do I contact about one of your customer sales representative lying to me about set up costs!😠
