  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia Exactly the same happened to me just, even had one of the call centre staff say I would've get a dead line when I told her I definitely will. She still transferred me down a dead line. Got told that changing provider isn't a good enough excuse to leave. Its my choice! 😡

  • g8uck Graeme Buck (@g8uck) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia Today so far so good but this has been happening every day for the past 2 weeks but I can never get through on the phone on hold for an hour at a time only to be cut off!! Went off again twice last night trying work from home is impossible

  • giaxclarke gia clarke ⚡️⚡️ (@giaxclarke) reported from Liverpool, England

  • PammyVegas21 Pamela Lavell (@PammyVegas21) reported from Warrington, England

    When you cancel a direct debit pending an overpayment query, an extortionate figure is taken by them, you get charged £7.50 for late payment, you are on hold for 45 minutes and then they say the direct debit wasn’t cancelled 👀NEVER CHOOSE VIRGIN @virginmedia @SCOAF_UK

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia That's mental, the options for the departments don't make sense either. To change your package, moving home or thinking of leaving us press 4.I press 4,how can I help you, thinking of leaving you, we can't do that here we will have to transfer you to another department.**** off

  • PaulGee1993 Paul Gee (@PaulGee1993) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spend another 90 minutes this morning trying to get through to you after being told last week I would receive a call back within a few hours and I’m still waiting. Have you got a number which I can get through on and cancel. Worst service I’ve ever received

  • PaulGee1993 Paul Gee (@PaulGee1993) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I need help with getting a number so I can call up and cancel the subscription we have. The broadband has been terrible for over a month now. Was told last week there was an issue with the router and we would receive support and have had none and it’s impossible to get though

  • tonycarroll14 Tony Carroll (@tonycarroll14) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi guys, was wondering if you could please help my Virgin isn't working!

  • Nathann_B Nathan Booth (@Nathann_B) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Well I was meant to be getting a phone back at 1 to speak to the manager, because of how one of your customer service spoke to me earlier on but no phone call

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia are your call centre staff ***************? Ones just been an idiot to me sounded like he couldn't be arsed while ones just sent me down a line that rings out constantly for 20 minutes. Both asked me different security questions and one flat out refused

  • g8uck Graeme Buck (@g8uck) reported from Widnes, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RobardsSteve Steve Robards (@RobardsSteve) reported

    @virginmedia The communication from the Virgin help desk has been the worst I have experienced anywhere, I get passed from one to another and they don't understand the problem. Also the technician's line manager doesn't seem prepared to make sure the job is done properly by the subcontractor

  • MikeNDixon Mike Dixon (@MikeNDixon) reported

    @virginmedia Your customers’ time is valuable and they are paying you for a service. Problems happen, not your fault, but the real test of a company is how they are set up to respond. You are clearly woefully lacking I am sorry to say.

  • jasonahmed85 Jason Ahmed (@jasonahmed85) reported

    @virginmedia No problem. I will do this now

  • MikeNDixon Mike Dixon (@MikeNDixon) reported

    @virginmedia And that sums up why you are so appalling at customer service. You can’t talk directly to those who coordinate your repair teams in the field and you can’t call your customers - and you are a communications company!! Suggest you start to learn from companies who do this well.

  • JamesMiddleton1 James Middleton (@JamesMiddleton1) reported

    @the_pieface @virginmedia Since first lockdown the issues started with me then you realise they are a terrible company. Had so many issues and cant wait to leave.

  • thej0rg Geoff Clements (@thej0rg) reported

    @the_pieface @virginmedia I put my vm hub in modem mode and got a proper router, that sorted a lot of my connection issues. Also check all the cables, one might be loose.

  • judieporter Judy George (@judieporter) reported

    @virginmedia I sent a letter back in October and then I called. If you look at my original tweet you will see what happened. Virgin media customer service if very shoddy.

  • stevesmith38ls Steve Smith (@stevesmith38ls) reported

    @virginmedia Waiting for your complaints dept is like Waiting for a signal. !

  • alicerebecca7 Alice Price (@alicerebecca7) reported

    @virginmedia “Isn’t ideal” is an understatement. I understand what the text service is for but just not sure it’s appropriate for trying to solve my issue. I want the call back from the manager that I didn’t get.

  • djidave77 david insley (@djidave77) reported

    @virginmedia They said they fixed them on Friday, then again yesterday. Now they say there were no issues ever and I need to wait 5 days before I can even call to arrange an engineer
