@virginmedia I signed up to your service & order a sim only deal. I’ve been trying to order another one but can’t log in to my account. Keeps saying there has been a problem and try later. This is my first ever experience with Virgin. I can’t log in nor can I place my order #firstimpressions

Called to discuss end of contract and to retain my business (especially during uncertain times and current my employment status) and help reduce costs. Told it’s going to cost £15 more than we already are on! SO MUCH FOR SUPPORTING US! DISGUSTED! @virginmedia

@virginmedia No known issues according to the tests but when I call your support they always say otherwise. I clearly have issues.

@virginmedia how do I cancel my contract with you. My broadband is constantly going down and for the price I pay your services are not worth it especially as i am on limited money. So I am looking at going to sky thank you

@virginmedia twice I’ve been on hold to customer service for 25mins only to get cut off. My broadband & TiVo hasn’t been working since 4pm. I’ve tried restarting the hub many times, checked the connections as well. I work from home & this is not what I need right now.

@lastdart @virginmedia I am with you on this one. They may have me over a barrel right now but when this is all over and normal service is resolved they can say farewell to this customer. If this is the way they treat loyal customer then #SirRichardBranson is in for a big expensive shock.

@virginmedia I’m still waiting for someone to reply to me about my bill. I get cut off when I try to phone, the online complaint form receives an error on every submission, there is no chat functionality available and I can’t get a reply in social media. Please advise ASAP. Thank you.

@virginmedia That was NOT offered to me, I was told I'd be cut off if I didn't pay the bill today so I said F.U. It won't be paid, the interest won't be paid, your debt collectors won't come to where I live and is they do they'll not hang around too long. Disgusting, and a ****** reply too.

@virginmedia It doesn't show up on my account, which is the problem. But an O2 sim card and the basic (free) TV service was supposed to be include. I received the sim card, but no TV

Hi @virginmedia can you tell me why, since "essential works" in B62 on 22 Aug I've only had 1 day where I've not had an outage of some sort. Even when I was told there was no prob on the 12th I was messaged that my issue was fixed on the 13th? Need @Ofcom for help on this #lies

@virginmedia But they literally won’t, that is what I’m trying to tell you - they won’t log a complaint, they say things are investigated to get you off the line and then log nothing. I can’t raise to ombudsman until a complaint has been logged for 8 weeks. But you won’t log a complaint!

@virginmedia If you keep on like that your business won't last much longer. You've lost a customer to @BT and I'll make sure there's more that join me in leaving you and your debt to try, TRY, and collect anything. Your customer service is disgusting, Indian based s**theads who can barely...

@virginmedia I would just like to talk to a person. We have issues and we are considering leaving. The only number for existing customers is automated.
