  • bicovico victoria nicholson (@bicovico) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia shocking service again today

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It was a five minute fix, but she lost one month of TV access as a result. She’s a nurse so arranging a daytime appointment took a while because of her work patterns. It’s her first home of her own and I felt she had been treated in a less than respectable manner.

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia My daughter had to make 2 phone calls to your customer service department to resolve a problem with her new TV box in November last year. She was almost 2 hours on the phone & then an engineer visit solved the problem. Engineer admitted the setup instructions were at fault.

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @davesumnersmith @virginmedia I have realised that talking to Twitter teams is of limited value. The responses are scripted and when they’re painted into a corner, they just stop responding. Customer Service has become a contradiction in terms. My daughter has had similar experiences with Virgin Media.

  • henry_1664 Andrew Grove (@henry_1664) reported from Birmingham, England

    Can anyone tell me how you get @virginmedia to respond to and deal with complaints? I am at the end of my tether with them! I have raised 4 complaints now and they have unsatisfactorily responded to 1 which I called back about to keep the complaint open only for them to close...

  • NannieHelen Helen Croft (@NannieHelen) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia It’s the WIFi and what can you do about it? I’ve been a customer for many many years and this issue is causing aggravation. Surely I should expect uninterrupted service all day every day. It’s not cheap either is it??

  • richiebunn Dickie B (@richiebunn) reported from West Bromwich, England

    The award for the worst ever customer service goes to @virginmedia over an hours wait to get through.

  • marieluc marie lucid (@marieluc) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia please could somebody contact a vulnerable person who has a broken TV box in their bedroom. Has no service. Please phone 07806810206. We can fit it if it can be posted out. No one answering customer services, many thanks

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely atrocious customer service! Waited for my Hub 4 to arrive as we are now paying for highest broadband, it arrives and has wrong power cable inside, phoned to sort, on hold for 20 mins then speak to someone who has IT issues and has put us on 40 mins hold!

  • ninsull Nickins (@ninsull) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia how can you spend nearly an hour on two phones to report a problem with no one picking up. Yet ask me if il refer you. @next stop I’m cancelling my contract.

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Just phoned, spent 35 minutes on hold, call answered, questions asked, checks being carried out.......... Phone gets put down!!! Do you expect me to call again for the same atrocious service?? @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog

  • whitepuggy Phill Russell (@whitepuggy) reported from Nuneaton, England

    Why can’t you watch the football recorded on virgin box on the iPad when finished when it’s @btsportfootball / @btsport but can if it was on skypsorts ? Help @virginmedia ??

  • alex_bann Alex Bann (@alex_bann) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Can anyone help please? New V6 box has been broken for about a month and have tried to call to get fixed/replaced but to no avail.

  • DagnallChris chris dagnall (@DagnallChris) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia my wifi is constantly going down, it's happened 4 times today, so frustration. Why do I pay £74 pound a month for this service!? Really thinking of switching to @SkyUK

  • MartinClarke165 Martin Clarke (@MartinClarke165) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No service still. Outrageous. No customer support. Online mths all day. Great advert for Virgin. The most reliable broadband provider #poorservice

  • psicorps2000 David H-T 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇳🇴🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@psicorps2000) reported from Solihull, England

    Anybody in B37 with a @virginmedia box having problems with their boxes rebooting? Ours has done it twice without warning this evening.

  • adam_jordan112 Adam (@adam_jordan112) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia has your mobile online order website gone down? It keeps telling me to message or ring to order?

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why has my mobile signal strength dropped now Virgin Mobile is piggybacking off Vodafone? Used to be full strength when you used EE.

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    And now you have been offline for over half a day with your website still saying there is no known issue?! I want to make an official complaint to both @virginmedia and @Ofcom , Your service is appalling and your customer service even worse.

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    I can’t get because Hub 3 doesn’t support it, poor quality control, worse customer service @virginmedia I want it sorted today!!

  • Cironni Ciarán Hanway 🇪🇺🖤 (@Cironni) reported

    The most reliable thing about my @virginmedia Internet service is that it fails EVERY SINGLE WEEK. Currently no Internet for the last several hours. 🤬

  • lisajanebailey2 Lisa Bailey (@lisajanebailey2) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 to be told their phone was out of date and should buy a new one!! Several people are having the same issue. It's very obvious there is an issue caused by the outage so please correct it. Thank you!

  • SeanPhillips92 Sean Phillips (@SeanPhillips92) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, I cannot use any of my services. Service status page states they are all working which is not the case. Please sort ASAP.

  • DannyWyattXXX Danny Wyatt | OnlyFans 25% off (@DannyWyattXXX) reported from St Helens, England

    Anybody else having Virgin media problems? #virginmediadown

  • IqbalSBedi Iqbal Bedi (@IqbalSBedi) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t want to see anything. I want you to fix this. It can’t be that hard for you to locate my approx position as I have you the initial part of my post code. Are you not interested in fixing this?

  • kwilson1964 Katie Wilson (@kwilson1964) reported

    @virginmedia yet again failed to deal with a complaint ongoing since January.stating tried to call! Hmm no you failed to call on day & time requested! Churned out a big standard rubbish reply. No refund on any bills dispite terrible service connections. Bitterly disappointed.

  • janevreynard Jane Reynard (@janevreynard) reported

    @virginmedia very poor support. Router issues but won’t help as there are outages in the area. Not impressed, wouldn’t listen to what we were saying and started shouting at us.

  • jason84woods Jason Woods (@jason84woods) reported

    @virginmedia Is it not too late now? You guys took the number from sky it never gave it too us, I hear the wait time is crazy long currently

  • xXTHLXx Tez_er (@xXTHLXx) reported

    @virginmedia after 6 year its time to say goodbye, been a amazing service but the price isn't worth it. See you next year when I am a new customer again. 👍

  • StarTr3k1701 The Observer (@StarTr3k1701) reported

    @virginmedia I've had faster and more reliable free WiFi than the crap you try and sell
