    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!

  • 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.

    Internet down no good when working home #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    @Sarahlw_95 @virginmedia Sarah I wouldn’t bother with WhatsApp, I’ve been speaking to various people for over a month on there trying to sort my incorrect bill. They just tell you it’s resolved when it isn’t. Scandalous service.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

  • 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?

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

    @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

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

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

    @MrCallum011 @virginmedia @peterkay_co_uk Ditto . Been down more than a ****** knickers lately

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Or put me through to a manager or try to be remotely helpful in keeping me as a customer, im trying to sign an 18 month contract to give you money every month which I could just give to someone else I will not let this lie till i have my money back!

  • Parleyyyyyy
    Josh (@Parleyyyyyy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just done that. If you watch the video though you’ll see it doesn’t even let me get to the login page. As soon as I click on virgin media customer it tries to take me to a website & then closes down

    @virginmedia broadband being down again, how, why

  • 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

    @JamesSymes8 Virgin Media. It keeps going really bad.

  • laineypb2109
    Elaine Brown (@laineypb2109) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia 15% increase, don't think so mate. I'll be in touch via phone shortly with a cancellation notice. So much for long serving customer loyalty

  • 92Tevs
    Thomas Evans (@92Tevs) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia do you want the prize for the shittiest broadband ever or would you like to fix my internet service?

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

    @virginmedia To be honest, the issue is an intermittent fault. My wife works from home and the broadband just drops out numerous times a day. Then comes back on. It’s only worthwhile doing a remote test if it’s when it drops out. Otherwise all will look fine

  • 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

  • JShine06
    JoShine06 (@JShine06) reported

    Why can't you speak to an actual human being from @virginmedia ? They were meant to call my mum back weeks ago and they never bothered.

  • follow_the_bear
    Bear Holland (@follow_the_bear) reported

    @virginmedia @VespaPX12570 Why no compensation for loss of TV it makes up one third of monthly payment for broadband, phone and TV services. If TV goes down for a day should get 33% minimum of contract cost for the days loss of TV service. What would CISAS say? #CISAS

  • NicolaThrussell
    Nicola Thrussell (@NicolaThrussell) reported

    @virginmedia EN6 (Potters Bar, Hertfordshire) area completely down with no internet but app says no issues. Please can you look into this to and get it resolved.

  • Shaun_Wren
    Shaun Wren (@Shaun_Wren) reported

    I’ve had zero TV signal since before lunchtime @virginmedia and was wondering if you’re going to actually sort it out and as a gesture of good faith knock money off this months bill

  • EB51_
    Elias (@EB51_) reported

    Tell me why @virginmedia I’ve tried to set up broadband with yourselves but you’ve cancelled without telling me, I’m under the assumption that Monday 18th May that an engineer will be here to connect me up, However, after contact your customer service they have repeatedly…

    @virginmedia Still no no TV service. Three days! Can't speak to anyone. No communication or explanation from Virgin Media. POOR service, increased costs every year above inflation, we're just being treated as cash cows. 😠🤔

    @virginmedia There are still issues with my TV. The BBC channel 101 is inactive & has a black screen. Why is this still the case? What are you doing to rectify this & how long will it take?
