  • PolH1966 Pauline Hancock (@PolH1966) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia Customer Loyalty!! None! 25 years continuous service. Can't get my name right. Retention team ignorant and useless. My bill went up from £25 to £28.50 and the BEST they can do to keep me is £39!!!!!! What a Joke. Bye Bye Virgin. You've lost the plot!!!!

  • richweedon77 Richard Weedon (@richweedon77) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with your service in DE3. Rubbish service all last week and when we phoned told not enough people in the area had complained. Now no internet this evening. This is getting beyond a joke

  • PhilRobottom Phillip Robottom (@PhilRobottom) reported from Blidworth, England

    @virginmedia When you’ve been on hold since 7.42pm then you get cut off after 1hr 3mins of waiting. Awful Awful Awful. This is only the fifth attempt to correct a long term existing customer. As per awful advertisements on TV shall we try and disguise ourselves as new customers!

  • Ashneville1970 Ashley neville (@Ashneville1970) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia poor services yet again, been on the phone listening to some shocking music for half hour and still waiting!!

  • jedimaster1982 Paul E (@jedimaster1982) reported from Derbyshire, England

    Annoying intermittent BB and TV loss of service in the Derby area by @virginmedia at the moment.

  • MrluckLuck Steve Luck (@MrluckLuck) reported from Ruddington, England

    @JConcreteABH @virginmedia One of the reasons I dropped VM. Was paying for 200mb and only got 40 at best. Signal dropped so often but always told to reboot modem even after trying to. Got slower set up now but at least it works when I want it and not at their whim. Rant over.

  • tizzy_woo Allison Briers (@tizzy_woo) reported from Stapleford, England

    @virginmedia That's the installations team, and they put me on hold again. Please give me an email address so I can put my notice in writing. It's pretty terrible that to cancel my contract I have to do a twitter conversation with you because I can't get through on the phone!

  • dibr150201 Diana Brown (@dibr150201) reported from Ravenshead, England

    @McGiff @virginmedia And me. Internet down for three days and can’t get through. This happened a few weeks ago and I found the complaints 08000521474 I think 08436580676 is switch board. It worked then. Trying again tomorrow. I am a big fan carol.

  • marksimms3 Mark Simms (@marksimms3) reported from Selston, England

    Wow... I honestly thought @virginmedia we’re the worst for customer service but seems like they’ve got serious competition from @ArrowXL_Help and @BandQ - both want to test your commitment to holding for an answer at least 20mins each

  • schluppeck Denis Schluppeck (@schluppeck) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia - you need to up your game! my experience today: terrible customer service and head-in-the-sand about some real issues affecting several 🏘 along the road (area ref 30). I really doubt the 99.96% uptime and 200Mbps* (*conditions apply) is even close to real world.

  • richweedon77 Richard Weedon (@richweedon77) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia why do I keep having to tweet you regarding you appalling broadband. Again your service is down in DE3 area and I may have to go into work rather than work from home like I should be

  • hatch_rebecca Rebecca Hatch (@hatch_rebecca) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed in your customer service, unhelpful, defensive and unbothered is best way to describe it. Was on fence about leaving but this has pushed a decision. Always had great things to say about virgin so this is definitely a let down

  • jonrileynffc Jon (@jonrileynffc) reported from Selston, England

    @virginmedia the picture quality on my sky sports is awful. Can barely make out who the players are 😕

  • stigzy Ethan Clarke (@stigzy) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @VirginMediaCorp @mdw1989 We're also very sorry we didn't inform you a newer hub model was available years ago, & that you've been paying us for a really shit slow model. Corrected it for you @virginmedia 👍🏼. (They gave me £50 off my bill for the same thing Mike, don't let them get away without compo)

  • Andyy680 Andy Yates. (@Andyy680) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @kevin0u @ASK_des @GMB @LBC I'd love to but here in the east kids I can't get it on the DAB radio and they aren't on the @virginmedia network.

  • DaveMaran Dave Maran (@DaveMaran) reported from Brinsley, England

    @virginmedia intermittent internet connection and speed for the past 3 days. Support just tell you to restart or reset hub then hang up! This is getting ridiculous. 70mb at moment when it works, even thought I should get 350+.

  • Rebekka35194230 Rebekka (@Rebekka35194230) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @virginmedia hi is there a problem with the phone line because I can’t ring out and I am getting texted messages

  • tizzy_woo Allison Briers (@tizzy_woo) reported from Stapleford, England

    @virginmedia No, the operator confirmed my only option was to cancel as he couldn't reduce the price, so I asked him to formally cancel my contract, he put me on hold and never came back! After 45 minutes I hung up. Thanks for replying btw 😊

  • danielpalfi Daniel Palfi (@danielpalfi) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia our internet is down for good 20 mins, the lights going crazy on modem and the 4th light flashing green! NG178ET

  • jonrileynffc Jon (@jonrileynffc) reported from Selston, England

    @virginmedia No faults. Other channels fine. Just sky sports quality is terrible

  • Jagger53015280 Jagger (@Jagger53015280) reported

    @virginmedia hi, please help. Are u responsible for the Wi-Fi in Travelodge? Keeps saying I have two devises lodged in- I don’t! I have one! Wat should I do? Thx

  • calhmck Cal (@calhmck) reported

    @virginmedia 60 days with no internet… terrible customer service. Haven’t responded to our complaint which was sent in February. Keep getting palmed off on the phone. Pish

  • johnfrancishook John-Francis Hook (@johnfrancishook) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t contact you. Last contact was last week by text to say all was fixed, but it wasn’t. Whole street has been down. Today I’ve been down again with lethargic latency. Up and down repeatedly. It’s been better than last week but not good.

  • bushofgoats Elon Reeves (@bushofgoats) reported

    good lord, there's temerity, and then there's @virginmedia. With a month to cancel, they've just informed me they're hoiking my monthly bill by £21.50. A straight 25% increase. #lookingatthealternatives

  • jordan_dearn Jordan (@jordan_dearn) reported

    brilliant customer service by @virginmedia sending a letter hiking my grandmother's bill up by £12 and then a non-UK call centre saying it's going to cost her more to decrease her package... followed by trying to sell her more services.. I guess the cost of living isn't a concern

  • MW_698 M13 (@MW_698) reported

    @virginmedia hasn’t been working for over a week keeps dropping out every half hour, call handler tells me previously the problem will 100% be fixed when I come home from the hospital with my newborn son, the day i step foot into the house the internet is still down, absolute disgrace

  • PindsLdn PindsLDN (@PindsLdn) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband down - as a remote worker this is somewhat inconvenient. Your app has my old contact phone number from a property 2yrs ago but app won't let me change it. Beyond frustrated - I pay a lot and expect better! Please help!

  • jgoldingay James goldingay (@jgoldingay) reported

    @virginmedia Oh the checker just said broadband is fine but issue with tv.
