-
Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England@virginmedia Visit was fine replaced wifi. I was never out of Internet completely like it says only your compensation page, but it was equally as bad since my step daughter had online training to do which couldn't be done at all. My children also were not able to do homework.
-
John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported from St Helens, England@CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?
-
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.)
-
Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia ..i don't know what manager in any way of life won't speak to a customer! I called back and spoke to another member of the team, who has logged it as a complaint, a manager is calling me today and he is looking what he can do for a 93 year old. Being forced to pay £105 a month...
-
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..
-
Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England@virginmedia So I had loss of service but not complete even tho the service I had wasn't enough to even complete a 15 minute online training. Great. Even though you only have cold water, would you still get a bath? Nah don't think you would
-
Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England@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.
-
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
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.
-
Pauline Hall (@hall291) reported from Halton, England@virginmedia how am I supposed to run an online tutoring business from home when your system goes down twice in a day ? #payingmorebutgettingless
-
Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia All internet is down, wireless and wired; the hub light is white and it’s a Hub 3.0.
-
Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.
-
phil61efc (@MirLADas) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia what’s going on virgin no tv since Friday morning told 5th now 6th no messages nothing paying for nothing compensation rates garbage nothing should take this long with a company like virgin L4 area
-
Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, EnglandHi @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
-
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"....

-
Victoria Lawrence sm 🇬🇧 (@vclark90_sm) reported@Benleo @virginmedia They are awful.
-
Heroes Of Britain (@HeroesOfBritain) reported@Benleo @virginmedia had a similar issue with sky a few years ago took them months to sort out a simple billing error
-
John Conning (@conning_john) reported@Benleo @CallmeRight1 @virginmedia I had heard they have a dreadful reputation for customer service or lack of it…..
-
England My Country I Love You (@UpTheVibration) reported@jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia I've always found them to be really good, been with them years, never a problem, broadband connection is great - we're high usage, and this year they even emailed me to let me know they were keeping my existing discount when my contract was up, I usually renegotiate each time
-
Chris 🍺 (@cbm64) reported@Benleo Some years back I was having awful issues with VirginMedia. On one visit my then 3yr old son looked at the engineer and said in a super clear voice - Sky is even better - the tag line at the time. The chap and I stopped arguing and just started laughing our asses off!
-
Craig (@Scrumpyjackfan) reported@Benleo @Ofcomsheep @virginmedia They were charging me a fee to watch Netflix even though 1, I never watch Netflix and 2, my partner has a Netflix account but even if u use the app on virgin even for a different user you will get charged. For a different user you have to use the app on your tv not virgin😕
-
Pete Long (@petelongrs) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I can sympathise with you. 'EDF'? Early disconnection fee. How the actual fuff did that ever get allowed? If people don't pay, turn off their service; no need for an additional made-up fee. When I moved providers, one of these jerks in the call centre claimed he'd get sacked if I didn't tell him which alternative provider I'd chosen. I mean, it's not like I'd been with them for over 25 years or something.
-
🇬🇧 Blue Room Art (@BlueRoomArt) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Had very similar issues, the call centres are horrific, they have no idea what I’m saying or asking for. All the engineers arriving had been given completely wrong information for visit. Back and forward for about 6 weeks to get my internet working again.
-
TwinHop (@ml1802) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Their customer service is absolutely shite.
-
786 (@TS7319) reported@Benleo Virgin Media internet doesnt work at all I have had 5 engineer visits and they keep moving my router to different places around the house there are wires everywhere and one of the engineers even broke my wardrobe while fitting the connection cable
