    @virginmedia So you’re not going to do anything about it, despite knowing it’s destined to let me down. Exactly the same attitude as the rest of virgin. The problem is, it’s taken almost 4 months. This is the issue; deep rooted - Virgin reps don’t care

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia The installation is still not complete! That’s the problem. Virgin was ordered on 2nd oct. First install was planned on 17/10 and then cancelled by Virgin. Virgin have cancelled 8-10 times since. It’s now 08/12! 52 days and counting

  • SimDendy

    Apologies if you can’t get hold of me - @virginmedia have ‘blacklisted’ my phone even though I am not a Virgin customer. After many hours/phone calls they are still unable to explain why & have said I need to write a letter (!) to escalate further 🤯 - any better ideas out there?

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Virgin are compensating me £5.25 a day. That’s £787. Two years of free service because they couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery

    @virginmedia I'll try to sign in with a different email address.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia This is the second time the complaint has been raised as the first one was ignored. It’s literally a joke and very ironic that I need to complain about the complaints department.

    @GeorgeMonbiot @timolarch @VodafoneUK My husband had the same problem with Virgin Media after the death of his father. He was given the number of the ‘bereavement department’ and he phoned, assuming they would help. Instead the woman demanded his father’s PIN and said only he could cancel!

  • obcans
    mark wilson (@obcans) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I fail to see wot difference that make my Wi-Fi is rubbish my Internet drops in and out all the time I have hours on the phone with people and it's still the same I want something done about it 😫

  • simonnewby
    Simon Newby (@simonnewby) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I do have a reference bit this is exactly the standard (or total lack) of service I have received for the last 4 weeks, hence the open complaint. Not one person from Virgin has contacted me in any way in that time, despite at least weekly promises like this one.

  • formula1girl
    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I cancelled in July (which apparently you have no record of) so I contacted you in Sept when you threatened to cut my service off, that I wasn’t using anymore, and told you I’d cancelled. I’m not paying this!! Absolutely ridiculous!!

  • Mike4Eastleigh
    Mike Thornton (@Mike4Eastleigh) reported from Fair Oak, England

    @virginmedia So absolutely no help from Virgin Media. My broadband is down. I go on line and it says there are no issues in SO50 6BP. I click on fox my broad band and of course it can’t because I have NO broadband!

  • davidmatheredu
    David Mather (@davidmatheredu) reported from Whiteley, England

    @virginmedia why do I have to wait for 23 hours to book an engineer when my broadband service is poor now?

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Well you said that on webchat you can’t do anything but raise a complaint for me. I called the pre-installs team again who have once again left a note for the area install manager to call. This note has been left several times, and of course - he doesn’t call. This is stuck.

  • SteveWasteney
    Steve (@SteveWasteney) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia Customer service is still the poorest of all the media companies I see. Can't use live chat without it dropping out, can't phone because the menu system doesn't cover what you want to talk about. Do you even have an e mail address to contact. I have had enough!!!

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately no end in sight. I had to make another call to Virgin today. It took 40 minutes before I was talking to someone. It seems Virgin are not capable to get this over the line without me pushing them onto the next step and following up to make sure things are done. Poor

  • crumblechris
    chris (@crumblechris) reported from Winchester, England

    @virginmedia Can you update the website to stop giving out false information? If you know there are ‘some issues’ can you tell me what they are - that alone is a helpful update….

  • formula1girl
    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia what a surprise, even after cancelling my service with you I’m still getting bills!!! I cannot believe your customer service is awful even after leaving.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia the worst customer service I’ve ever encountered. 6 cancelled installs, no broadband, no Tv, no heating. Unable to work thanks to virgin media. No resolution in sight, just empty promises and apologies.

  • james_mccoll
    james (@james_mccoll) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia Let’s be honest it always says there’s no issue, but yes we checked it and it says nothing. It went off this morning at about 11 and in the past 15 mins it’s gone off 3 times

  • formula1girl
    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I have just spoken to collections team who told me they cannot deal with my issue. They passed me to cancellation team who said they cannot deal with it only collections can. The issue is that I cancelled in July but you have no record of my call or letter.

    @virginmedia moved to your broadband service from @TalkTalk a few months ago it's something I regret everyday. Your customer service is non existent calls cut off before getting any help same as online help. I have a smart home with multiple devices that can't connect have never

  • oldpoyntz
    MrsM 💙 (@oldpoyntz) reported

    @PeterBakerMcfc @virginmedia Internet is back now. No one touched anything and it goes off. Moving to Community Fibre once this contract is up. I can't keep having these issues & paying through the nose. At least we'll be able to rotate through the apps as and when needed.

  • MarionBrowne42
    Marion Browne (@MarionBrowne42) reported

    @keithapearson @virginmedia @MartinSLewis I think Yodel can challenge VM. They left a package at my neighbour no2, due to the layout of the close, no2 is nowhere near no3 and the photo of proof is also not no2 unless you are in the next close 🤬 An hour on a chat to discover that the driver is an idiot.

  • lennylaw
    Percival Merganser (@lennylaw) reported

    Really good point from Steve. 0345 454 1111 How did I find the number? Went to the “accessibility support” tab on the My Virgin Media app. Always imagine you have a disability. Did they ask? Did they arse. Goes straight to the helpline.

  • RedmondJunkie
    QQ (@RedmondJunkie) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down since yesterday all day. Claims that engineer fixed it at 5pm yesterday only for the service to be down again this morning. What did they fix exactly?! #poorservice#broadband

    @virginmedia Your wifi is utter crap and doesn’t work Your customer service is a joke You are not fit for purpose

  • WillVallely
    Wilson (@WillVallely) reported

    @virginmedia 90 minutes on the phone today no resolution. spoke to a manager who asked me to send my contract to them (why they didn’t have it I don’t know). The promise of a call back today to resolve, still not happened. Absolute waste of time .

  • graziegee999

    @virginmedia intermittent service in the area yet no sign of any engineers sorting issues. How long will this go on?

    @virginmedia There seems to be a broadband issue in HP1 as I have no services and your outage page has identified an issue. Any idea how long this will be down?
