    @virginmedia Shame your customer service agents on the phone don't seem to feel the same. You cancelled my TV & BB before agreed date, agreed to re-instate which turns out to be a lie as now refusing to unless I agree to a long term contract. Astonishing awful treatmeant

    @virginmedia why can’t I get through to your technical helpline - we’ve tried last night and tonight. The waiting times are ridiculous. And the problem still isn’t fixed.

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

    @virginmedia Done that as well. I have made at least 20 calls to you and been promised reconnection on numerous occasions and then nothing happens and I go through it all again. Your customer service is dreadful

  • TheMrMcFarlane Julian McFarlane (@TheMrMcFarlane) reported from Sheffield, England

    A second day of downtime thanks to @virginmedia a huge broadband outage in the office means no phones, no internet and £000's in potential losses. 20+ minutes on hold to be told that connection "could" be back this aft. Thanks @virgin @VirginMediaCorp

  • EmmaBodley1 Emma Bodley (@EmmaBodley1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia just had a sales call from you guys and the woman I spoke to was extremely rude. Maybe you should just let people ring you if they wish to change their services.😡

  • LeonieGillard Leonie Gillard (@LeonieGillard) reported

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to customer services for a month with no success. There is no online chat feature and we have followed all steps online with no success. We just need a new booster as our internet is so poor even though we live in a small bungalow?

They have stung me with a massive bill thats due paid in 3 days now how can they not even give me answers still is mad

  • quopticaljake Jake Glidden (@quopticaljake) reported

    @virginmedia – any chance of requesting a callback re. broadband? It's unreasonable to expect your customers to have to try calling you every hour only to find there's never anyone available.

  • SkyRocketTips Sky Rocket Tips (@SkyRocketTips) reported

    @virginmedia @19stacey83 This service is absolute trash WiFi on and off every 3 mins been like this for weeks can’t get through to anyone service checker saying everything is fine

  • JamesTu15218502 James Turner (@JamesTu15218502) reported

  • kirstyflove Kirsty F Love (@kirstyflove) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia someone was meant to call my dad back this morning but never did. He can’t get through ringing you. Can someone help?

  • herefourtheride Paul (@herefourtheride) reported

    @virginmedia @stephweeks5 how long before you respond to the text service? or is that now under pressure from the global pandemic

  • aris_palyvos Aris_P (@aris_palyvos) reported

    So if I want to cancel my broadband account with @virginmedia I have to wait 2 hours on hold and get charged on top of it! Well done, maybe you can make it more difficult for your customers

  • adelarks a d e l a r k s | iwonderwhat (@adelarks) reported

    @virginmedia We are going around in circles here. I have emailed your whole exec board and press office. Hundreds of parents are experiencing poor speeds here. You don't have the issue registered on your pathetic system. But your exec board admit an infrastructure issue here!
