  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

    @virginmedia What does Virgin do for disabled people, when their internet goes down?

  • alandean1878
    Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)

  • elisabethhilto4

    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

  • Robertlfc_
    Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are

  • RayWaring
    Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Sorry I really don’t get it. A few hours ago I was told that your team would investigate etc. Now you’re telling you don’t have any access so I’m left to hang on with no one from VM being able to update me. Is that it?

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

  • JohnMurphy9172
    murf (@JohnMurphy9172) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me

  • Robertlfc_
    Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia fix ur awful service!!!!

  • colette2511
    Colette Ellison (@colette2511) reported from Warrington, England

    @richardbranson you really need to sort out your company @virginmedia they a robbing gets. That company is bad in all areas. Some advice for people trying to cancel record everything for proof as they say they have cancelled it then send you loads of bills 😡

  • elisabethhilto4
    Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Been signed up to a contract I specifically asked not to be. Unable to get through on the phone and your online complaint submission form does not work. Can someone please contact me urgently

  • ChrisWAzure
    Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The guy was the most arrogant person I've ever spoke to in CS, retentions is meant to be the end of the line, if it was my service and not my wife's 93 year old nan i'd have cancelled the contract. I asked to speak to a manager and was told "managers don't speak to customers"....

  • AckerHeron
    Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, my dear old mum has been on the phone for 20 minutes because her broadband has gone down. Your advisors keep saying to reset the hub and disconnecting before it's sorted. Any ideas? Still using the crap one you sent years ago despite her recontracting

  • Billzy79
    Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Jacedafaceis @virginmedia Yes. Been out to lake district, and 4G mobile phone signal was quick and more reliable than the broadband. And people thought it was normal.

  • Gary_Kilroy
    Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported from Liverpool, England

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

  • EmsydilemsyL
    Emma Latham (@EmsydilemsyL) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia advice please! I’ve been a customer for over ten years and am also an o2 customer and my account is now going up by another £12 per month on a pretty basic package! Phoned twice and been told that someone will get back to me with a new price package - still nothing

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve been told this before… yet it never happened when my bill was generated. Let’s see eh..

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia You had issues too? I've been sent a new set top box and it doesn't work at all. I need to get back to them next week before they start chucking charges on my account though....

    James Mockford (@james_mockford_) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Had a similar issue with EE/BT. Sent the faulty router back but they argued I never sent it back… continued to charge me for over 6 months. After complaining they opened an investigation, admitted they lost it and they did eventually send me a cheque for £400 😎

  • sparkly_sand
    banofi (@sparkly_sand) reported

    @virginmedia you need to cater for people who work from home. I’m losing earnings due to bad internet. Apparently I can’t have business broadband and have a tv package! 🤬😭

    Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reported

    @virginmedia The outage was a nightmare for me, important online tasks could not be completed. Had to spend ages online trying to find a solution to jobs that could not be done offline. Managed to finally speak to someone at Virginmedia and shown how to get update some progress. Finally, I have got back online again.
