    Terrible service by @virginmedia - trying to cancel my mobile contract & get a PAC to transfer my number. I’ve been waiting over a week & today when I got through to someone, after on hold 26mins, got cut off - but they didn’t ring me back! Wonder why I want to leave them?!?! 😡

    @virginmedia on a 200mbps download package and I’m averaging 9mbps this morning! I understand there might be heavier traffic at the moment, but we can’t do any work from home with such poor service!! #stayconnected I would if I could!!

    Hi @virginmedia you have been utterly appalling. I have been trying to contact someone you about my complaint since 9/1/23 and you’ve fobbed me off. Terrible service.

  • JakeReynolds93
    Jake (@JakeReynolds93) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Only had to wait 2 hours to finally get through to someone who was able to deal with my issue. Stuart Toms, one of your managers was very helpful & got the various issues resolved...

    Kevin Spicer (@kevinspicer72) reported from Bedford, England

    Just been DM'd by @OpenreachHelp to ask if there is anything ELSE they can help me with TODAY. After NOT being any help at all on FRIDAY. I think it's a parody account. Also @SkyUK didn't call as promised. God I wish we had @virginmedia round here.

  • charleshill23
    Charlie (@charleshill23) reported from Desborough, England

    @virginmedia hi, I am utterly disgusted with the way I have been spoken to on the phone when I called to talk about an account. I then had a call back and was spoke to like a deprived human being. I want to leave your service as your customer service skills are an abomination.

    Hilary Scott (@nosylocaljourno) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    So unbelievably fed up of @virginmedia broadband that constantly drops out. I pay almost £100 a month for packages that are just useless if the connection goes down. Can't work from home or teach remotely under these conditions.

  • Just_Woodbridge
    Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I have sent text messages to the number you provided on here, and I last spoke to several customer representatives on 26th January, then asked to speak to a manager, was put on hold for 50 minutes, then you cut me off/the line went dead. So, nothing has been resolved.

    Joe Spencer (@JoeSpen05256454) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia 3 times this week I’ve tried to cancel my contract, 3 phone calls, all of which I get cut off from when I mention the word ‘cancel’!! Coincidence? Strange how I don’t get cut off during the long time I’m on hold!?! 🤔

    @virginmedia Been trying since 9am!! All day all I’ve got is the fire starter and rugby players!! Hit ‘login with Virgin Media’ Hit ‘continue’ then welcome to a blank screen! #peterkay #virginmedia #useless

    Craig West (@craigwest) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @ruskin147 @PippaCrerar @virginmedia Virgin Media outage sounds like an issue with the broadband connection between Virgin and your home. The WiFi coverage within your home should be a quite separate issue? My Plusnet router didn’t give great WiFi coverage so I added TP-Link Deco mesh WiFi and have no issues now.

  • leemcrae76
    Lee McRae (@leemcrae76) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did, just this morning. The system diagnosed a fault and asked me to reset my router. I did and it started working again (as it always does tbh) and has since gone down again. I would like to know how to book an Engineer to call please ASAP! Thanks

    @pianobook1 @venustheory Took me 3-4 days to download all of the Decent Sampler packs on the slowest broadband possible from Virgin Media. Basic package. Only packs over 1GB failed network and restarted downloads. Meg are fine to download. Long haul nearly done with it.

  • jamesdgreen02
    jamesdgreen (@jamesdgreen02) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia great service from your sales team over the phone as your website crashed when ordering. But needed to talk to CS to get them to cancel the order that was partially done before website crashed. But accordingly CS they can’t see it. Ant it would take them 7 days 1/2

  • covrules
    Jamie Nairn (@covrules) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve rung and got no where. I’ve tried online and got nowhere. I’ve texted and got nowhere. Just crap customer service.

    KP (@KP_1886) reported

    @virginmedia Your broadband outages are absolutely unforgivable. We’re paying good money for your internet only to be denied the ability to do our jobs because we have no WiFi. The fix date keeps changing. It’s not improving. Yet we’re still paying. What are you doing about this?

  • ljbrameld
    Lynne (@ljbrameld) reported

    @RichardMorrow10 @virginmedia You’ll be lucky. I left them & changed Broadband company. They said I was due credit & would send a cheque (cheque 🥴). Still waiting. Bet it never arrives.

  • Gagabids
    Clare B (@Gagabids) reported

    We've had no Prime for 3 days, what is the issue? @virginmedia

  • TubzNetz
    TubzNetz (@TubzNetz) reported

    @virginmedia smart move switching from analogue to fibre landlines during business hours, causing broadband to reset, what retard in change control approved that in statement of work?

  • SamanthaJane_H
    Sam Sheehan (@SamanthaJane_H) reported

    @virginmedia WHY DO YOUR CONTRACTORS NEVER SHOW UP?! 3 WEEKS OF NO BROADBAND AT THIS POINT AND NO SIGN OF ANYONE FIXING IT BECAUSE YOUR STAFF DONT TURN UP

  • NeoRobins
    Neo ✨ (@NeoRobins) reported

    @virginmedia are abysmal. After harassing us for weeks by knocking at the door we decided to switch to them. Only to be left without wifi for almost an entire month. And customer service keeps making empty promises, telling us that it’ll be installed the next day.

  • kateandhergirls
    Kate and her girls (@kateandhergirls) reported

    @virginmedia Your chat colleague already looked into it and was incredibly rude and basically said tough you’re an existing customer on a contract and we don’t help our loyal customers, just new ones 🙄

  • 2cakesdakes
    twocakesdakes (@2cakesdakes) reported

    @virginmedia Customer since you started. Trying to renew package and being told its £63 . Same package for new contracts is 30 ******* quid cheaper. That's £720 over a 2 year contract.

  • Yogendras41
    Yogendra Singh (@Yogendras41) reported

    @virginmedia It's always broadband issue in Mansfield Uk almost every month 2 or 3 days why I am paying bill if always has the issues so NOT RECOMMENDED FOR ANY NEW USER go with another broadband services

  • SamanthaJane_H
    Sam Sheehan (@SamanthaJane_H) reported

    @virginmedia I have messaged. I have taken days off on multiple occasions to wait in for engineers to attend. I was assured that due to external works I would not need to be in today, however the issue STILL has not been fixed despite assurances it would be sorted.
