  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Often get “internet unavailable” and phone line hasn’t worked since we moved over from Sky. Fair to say unless it gets sorted soon I will be going back to Sky snd getting a refund for having no working phoneline. Been a terrible experience.

  • KevinRenshaw5 Kevin Renshaw (@KevinRenshaw5) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia you are an absolute disgrace of a company with simply the worst customer service I have ever encountered. You have disconnected my service and after numerous calls and promises over 4 days I still have no service. Pathetic!

  • teaguestar Paul (@teaguestar) reported from Clifton, England

    @virginmedia Your customer service ( that’s a complete trade description act wording) are shocking . 40 mins waiting cut off twice . Garbage

  • jonnyriall Jonathon Riall (@jonnyriall) reported from Shepshed, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. On both occasions there's apparently been no issues, and none shown again this morning. It's more the fact that even though it happened twice in a week, and having waited on hold for 30min each time, I just get told to call back if it happens again.

  • jnlangton joseph langton (@jnlangton) reported from Braunstone, England

    @virginmedia A gang is coming in 2 hours to fix the cable Thanks

  • KevinRenshaw5 Kevin Renshaw (@KevinRenshaw5) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Just done it and cut off after being put through to manager after 20 minute call. Today you had the gall to bill me for changing my service when you incompetents were the ones that cut me off. Your customer service system is pathetic as well @Ofcom

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Will be later. Just got back now to do some work and internet down again! Needs resolving as I mostly work from home.

  • charlie_bethel Charlie Bethel (@charlie_bethel) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia Very very poor customer service

  • jonnyriall Jonathon Riall (@jonnyriall) reported from Shepshed, England

    @virginmedia It doesn't feel like paying £50+ a month for no fancy services (basic TV and broadband) this is great customer service.

  • lisa_c_pitt Lisa Pitt (@lisa_c_pitt) reported from Gotham, England

    @virginmedia can I cancel all services, new contract started 14th Nov. New changes dont take effect until 8th dec.

  • KevinRenshaw5 Kevin Renshaw (@KevinRenshaw5) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia I have continually been passed around departments. This morning it was sales that told me they would have me back on this afternoon. I can never get back to the same department through your automated system and I don’t have any numbers for contacting you directly.

    @Mazstrict @virginmedia Three hours I was holding Friday, four departments, passed from pillar to post only to be cut off at 2 hours 57 minutes. Their service is atrocious.... Switched to Sky

  • boxer_junior Rocky Boxer Junior - MMA (@boxer_junior) reported

    @virginmedia ZR as I said poor customer service. You win. I did not want the virgin tv fixed as it’s rubbish and I can live without it. You’ve bored me to death. The internet coming into my home is poor. I’ll carry on paying for the internet that doesn’t work. Don’t bother answering.

  • Ban_Ana_Smith Ana Hernandez (@Ban_Ana_Smith) reported

    @virginmedia I have currently been an hour and 15 minutes on the phone trying to get hold of movals and disconnection team and they keep sending me to customer services. I can't spend my whole evening on the phone!! 😭

  • uncle_honka Honk (@uncle_honka) reported

    @virginmedia can you tell your resolution team that complaint reference C-2112201227 isn't resolved, cos apparently me emailing them 3 seperate times to tell them it wasn't and asking for a deadlock letter to send to the independent adjudicator gave the impression it was.

  • c_r_shaw Christopher Shaw (@c_r_shaw) reported

    @virginmedia Ah. Heading for day 5 then. The latest update we have is: We have identified the problem and an engineer is on their way. The estimated repair time is now: 14/02/2021 18:15:00. The Virgin Media Team.- ID: F008795191. Best wishes, the Virgin Media Team.

  • Justonebob Bob Condick (@Justonebob) reported

    @virginmedia so I've tried to cancel for 2 weeks now and you won't answer the phone, not in contract so just going to cancel direct debt, that cool?

  • twinbabbas TwinsD (@twinbabbas) reported

    @virginmedia what a disgraceful service my phone service and broadband was cut off in less than a day leaving us with no services at all because we asked to go over to BT.

  • AndrewKrisman Andrew Krisman (@AndrewKrisman) reported

    @virginmedia hi Virgin Media, I’ve spent over an hour trying to cancel my broadband account via phone and internet and finding your customer service impenetrable. I know I’m not a celeb, but can someone help me close my account!!

  • H7Factualist Harjinder Kalsi (@H7Factualist) reported
