    No sound on my TV for 4 days, tried all the usual re boots and resets, countless calls to virgin on hold for over an hr only to be cut off, am now waiting for a callback off them that probably won’t come, disgraceful service,can anyone help @virginmedia

  • MattyladKRO Matt Smith (@MattyladKRO) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I hung on for 45 mins then you hung up ....disgusting customer service tell me why I shouldn’t just cancel and go elsewhere after suing you for breach of contract

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

    @virginmedia Waited over an hour on hold only to be hung up on by an extremely rude call centre operative after explaining I’m trying to administer my father’s account as he’s just died! @virginmedia you disgust me!

  • a_Muss60 Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia 😱 a 100mb internet, TV and phone service that works.

  • roachie1969 Jeff Roach (@roachie1969) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia what are the customer service hours at the moment?

  • HelenAbdullah08 💙 Helen Abdullah 💙 (@HelenAbdullah08) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia We tried the messaging service thank you that didn’t help either. To be honest we are dreading trying to contact you again in the new year to get this sorted another 2 hours on the phone! I would have thought it your responsibility to sort this out but apparently not!

  • MattyladKRO Matt Smith (@MattyladKRO) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia That service is useless it makes up things that isn’t the question I ask

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

    @virginmedia wifi down yet again B37 area 1 hour on hold cut off again!

  • omarqureshi Omar Qureshi (@omarqureshi) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Mattplaysgames7 @virginmedia Looks like the Erdington area is down

  • 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.

  • Tricia__Winspur Tricia (@Tricia__Winspur) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Parents experiencing continual issues with their Virgin services... have tried contacting Virgin for over month and continually on hold. Now on hold again and this issue needs to be resolved. Elderly parents and no mobile. Any help as this is disgusting service!!

  • bicovico victoria nicholson (@bicovico) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia I pay £22 for sky sports - asked for it to be removed and the price has only gone down £13 . How is that right, fair or legal ?

  • AnnaavfcEdwards edowards (@AnnaavfcEdwards) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Still no help for her she’s now back at work tomorrow and not home till 6.30 pm just not good enough !!

  • HelenAbdullah08 💙 Helen Abdullah 💙 (@HelenAbdullah08) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia Sadly no. we admitted defeat, we were on hold for 1hr 50 mins. Got through the next day, the equipment sent does not work properly now have been advised to call after the new year to chase it again. We are paying for a service we aren’t receiving this is really disappointing

  • HelenAbdullah08 💙 Helen Abdullah 💙 (@HelenAbdullah08) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia Didn’t get a response then told another dept would contact. All we want is the service we are paying for. We need a new v6 box the replacement sent doesn’t work properly(set top box) we cannot use catch up and the picture is intermittently pixilated.

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

    @virginmedia Why is it your call centres and your web chat give no answer for hours on end, and your website constantly falls over returning error messages.... “Whoops! Something went wrong!” Your customer service is a joke!

  • alex_bann Alex Bann (@alex_bann) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia New V6 box (less than a month old) alternates between flashing red & white lights. Tried to reset using your help guide - still not working. How do I sort this out? #childreninthehouse

  • dean_kavanagh Dean Kavanagh (@dean_kavanagh) reported from Solihull, England

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

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

    @virginmedia Internet down yet again!!!!! Awful customer service yet again!!!

  • alexlowe95 Alex Lowe (@alexlowe95) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to watch virgin tv through Firefox on my Amazon fire stick, but I keep getting an error message ‘sign in failed’ although it doesn’t even give me the option to enter an email address to attempt to sign in?

  • HartlepoolLoyal KB (@HartlepoolLoyal) reported

    @SIMA1872 @virginmedia Never experienced nothing like it. Having to repeat the stuff 5 times after getting passed about to other departments.

  • XnNitro XnNitro (@XnNitro) reported

    @virginmedia I presume I'm getting compensation for the 2/3 weeks this issue has been going on for.

  • Broomey6 Broomey (@Broomey6) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I'm still not up an running and being told I have to wait for an engineer for 5 days What sort of joke is that. So my service goes down ans apparently it's all back up now. But I have to wait 5 days. Joke

  • Buck1e Paul Buckle (@Buck1e) reported

    @virginmedia Well it's already cancelled. Your scaremongering retentions advisor who will happily lie to keep a customer and no doubt his commission for doing so instigated that decision. Openly lying about your services and other suppliers isn't good business practice.

  • GilesBatchelor Giles Batchelor (@GilesBatchelor) reported

    @KimMCutter @vmbusiness Kim I'd suggest it's because "high quality customer service" and "virgin media" are often mutually exclusive concepts?

  • ggh1992 . (@ggh1992) reported

    @HartlepoolLoyal @virginmedia Mate they do that to everyone that tries to cancel you just need to complain about it

  • CJGrannell Chris Grannell (@CJGrannell) reported

    @Beviathan @virginmedia Awful service

  • CharlieStracha2 Charlie Strachan (@CharlieStracha2) reported from Manadon, England

    @virginmedia tried calling as my TiVo box has no signal & won’t turn on. Your customer service is not even working 😤

  • kevincox4 kevin cox (@kevincox4) reported

    @virginmedia Tried to make a complaint was refused

  • SDH1844 Sue Higgins (@SDH1844) reported

    @virginmedia Just to help you understand. I am the account holder. We have to conduct conversations via Whatsapp. Your agent had no ability to Whatsapp my daughter or add her to the chat. Virgin mobile cannot call my daughter. Which number shall my daughter call you on please?
