Virgin media are an absolute disgrace, talk about poor customer service. My wife has been over 50mins on the phone just trying to sort out a new hub as we upgrade to the box last month, got sold a new package and then best thing is the hub is to old to run what we need.

@virginmedia We’ve tried three times to raise a complaint with you. And this magical game appeared after the second complaint (the same day) to which the man on the phone was rude, spoke over me and implied my business wasn’t needed or respected at all.

@virginmedia absolutely shocking customer service! cancelled my services as of 21st March, rang you today to see what you could offer me to stay and you offer me the same package at £17 more expensive, but offer new customers the same deal but £5 cheaper that I currently pay!

@virginmedia I pay £40 a month JUST for WiFi!!!! it’s horrendous. Slow, can’t handle streaming a simple Amazon Prime video, and I’m getting charged DOUBLE what I paid originally a few years back! I’ll be phoning to leave Monday morning, £40 is terrible, let alone for poor service

@JackoGaz @virginmedia It’s down over the whole city. I broke it out of sheer frustration watching that drivel and spent the third period cooking vegetables rather than continue watching. That’s how serious it was 🥬🥒🥕🥦

@virginmedia anyone thinking of getting their Wi-fi, think again. We’ve been with the now since NTL days and this HUB 3.0 has been the worst!! Not as good as the make out. The router is in a good position not hidden away yet it’s still crap!!

When I renew, @virginmedia offer free AirPods with some plans and @O2 do the same! So much for customer loyalty, they just want more and more money! 🤬

@virginmedia I don’t want to waste more of my day doing that, I want you to do what you (publicly) said you’d do, stop lying to customers online and actually do something to help. Virgin is worth £19.5 billion, I’m sure you can make the situation I’d imagine lots of people are in bearable.

@Nesphalim @Jackoswhorld @virginmedia Hi Kimberley, I’m a virgin media customer and literally getting about 50 emails a day now coming to the inbox saying ‘expiring’ etc. I put them all in the junk yet the new emails still make their way to my inbox? Do u know why now? Thx for any help

The service level and customer service from @virginmedia is really, really very poor. Never get any communication back from any complaints that I have made. You've become very self-assured with your fastest broadband mantle. Shouldn't affect good customer service.

@virginmedia So problem eventually sorted. A new router was never ordered and not available unless you’re a new customer so I upgraded which obviously costs more and I got the Hub4 within 2 days and enjoying Virgins new Gig1 fibre connection now.

@Alanmcl76 @virginmedia I honestly need to factory reset at least once a week, and I'm looking a WiFi mesh options as the hub4 is shockingly bad

@LawR6S Virgin Media is the fastest you will probably be able to get, however for me in my area it will go down at least once a day and speeds are inconsistent. Also the router they give is a pile of **** along with their customer support.

Seems virgin media is using subliminal advertising on their tv network & the recent price hikes have been savage....with more to follow!

@virginmedia No. I waited an hour to get through the first time. Why should I keep having to wait an hour each time I call? I can’t be bothered and don’t have the time to spend that long on hold. Rubbish customer service and every Saturday your on demand service doesn’t work.
