    @virginmedia why send me letters with no contact details on for me to get back to you, put my bill up, yet fail to provide the service I’m paying for! I’ve been trying for 3 weeks to contact you to talk about this! Shall I cancel my contract..yes as soon as I can get through 😤

    @virginmedia Internet and TV down yet again and this after a debacle of a mis sold “extra” remote control this weekend, absolute disaster and terrible customer service!

    sarah allen (@sair74) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia Hi there, I have just dialled 150 but it’s constantly engaged. My grandad is having problems with his tv and I need to get it sorted. A technician came 2 weeks ago but it’s gone back to the original problem, how can I contact you regarding this???

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia You only pay out for a total loss of service. So it can be unusable but still limping along and you won't pay out. Personally I am hoping for another provider to get around to rolling out fibre in my area.

    @virginmedia I’m meant to be on a webcall about my TV that doesn’t work can anyone help me please?

  • Ade1701
    Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia After a couple more wasted hours and speaking to two more useless, rude and incompetent call centre operatives your customer retention team actually listened. Might help if ALL your call centres were UK based and had some compassion.

    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Is there an email address I can use instead? I can just tell them the address and send the photos and explain the problem. They turn up whenever and fix it (its on the street, so no one needs to be home) I’ve taped up the lower parts, but up higher it is hanging over a shop sign.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    The problem in my area B37 has been happening for over a week can’t watch any TV now @virginmedia over £100 a month!! Plus I’ve been waiting 2 years for an internet booster

  • pasty_pete
    Peter Brocklehurst (@pasty_pete) reported from Solihull, England

    Good old virgin media down again twitch in one week and I’m told two to three days before anyone can come out yet I bet the bill will arrive on time

    Frugalista (@frugalista1) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

  • Markycot
    Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely atrocious customer service! Waited for my Hub 4 to arrive as we are now paying for highest broadband, it arrives and has wrong power cable inside, phoned to sort, on hold for 20 mins then speak to someone who has IT issues and has put us on 40 mins hold!

    @barbs_paul @EE Up there with @virginmedia, horrendous service for existing customers!

    @virginmedia Hi John. Just lost the internet again in the middle of a teams conference with a very important client. I will not try to get in touch with Virgins Customer service as I am to busy however for what difference it makes Virgins service is appauling

  • isunhita
    Sunhita Ing (@isunhita) reported from Stratford-upon-Avon, England

    @virginmedia really appalled with our experience as a new customer (15years with previous supplier). Mix ups with installation. Overcharged. Waiting in for installers not turning up. Closing of a complaint that was escalated. Chasing. No resolution. Want to leave already!

  • Ade1701
    Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Network security warnings, poor speed (even on direct cabled link to router), and we need a wifi booster which with the broadband, phone and tv package I believe is included. Still on hold after two hours! Wasted yesterday waiting for a response on so-called ‘live chat’!

  • charlwalden
    𝕔𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕠𝕥𝕥𝕖🧸 (@charlwalden) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia No estimated time. "It's a complex problem". In other words its a network fault not a line fault. Why isn't the number you shared available on your website? The service checker is useless in this scenario. The website says it's working when it isn't.

  • _shannonC
    shanny C 🌹 (@_shannonC) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia haha you mean the same forum where they didn’t answer me for days last time, and they didn’t resolve anything???? waste of time. they told me to check the speed and check for area issues. absolutely awful customer service when i’ve been complaining about this for WEEKS now.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Sheldon, England

    @virginmedia I don’t think so I’m still getting distorted TV on a few channels it’s frustrating as my complaint never gets recified I’ve spent hours on end trying to get it sorted

  • Baggielee80
    Lee Greenhouse (@Baggielee80) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia very poor service with the broadband cutting out every so often having to keep rebooting the box frankly not good enough for over £60 a month. Can you sort it out please. B62 area

  • SamanthaJane_H
    Sam Sheehan (@SamanthaJane_H) reported

    @virginmedia I did direct message 4 days ago, nobody read or replied. I’ll recap- 2 weeks no service, five engineers sent to diagnose the same problem multiple times, no fix. Complaints team open and close complaints immediately with no resolution. Fix not due for at least another week.
