  • 6thDr 6thdr (@6thDr) reported from Wokingham, England

    Today I finally changed my phone. Goodbye #virginmedia #virginmobile never again shall I have such awful customer service service.

  • flyingjok John Neilson (@flyingjok) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia Worst part of it @virginmedia is the way your customer service team speaks to customers. Quite appalling and in my experience always approached on basis that the customer is wrong. It consistently bad - to be told you don’t send texts when I clearly had two texts quite insulting!

  • gregemmerson_ Greg Emmerson (@gregemmerson_) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Completed the tests with the app, one room poor coverage

  • PhilipFurlong2 Philip Furlong (@PhilipFurlong2) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia They say it's company policy and as it's with IT they can no longer help! 1 week and no further forward.

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I can't sign in as I no longer hold an account, your CS don't care and obviously fobbing me off and not raising complaints as requested, I will just pursue via FCA and/or trading standards.

  • gonnella Pete (@gonnella) reported from Woodley, England

    @mattlintott @NetXL_dot_com Nice 👍🏻 got gig1 from @virginmedia but the upload is awful only 50mbit. Hope it gets increased to at least 100mbit soon.

  • ambreenfarooq15 A (@ambreenfarooq15) reported from Reading, England

    Virgin media is sooooooo ******* ****

  • BagshotTwit Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia I upgraded to the Ultimate Oomph package in Jan but still waiting for the order to be completed. I’ve contacted customer services on numerous times but no success, I’ve also raised a complaint. How do I actually get some help to complete the order?

  • AlisonJaneWilso Alison Jane Wilson (@AlisonJaneWilso) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia truly awful company stuck in the dark ages why would you trust them with broadband when after 3 months notice to quit they take full payment and then you have to apply for a refund !!! Company run by dinosaurs looking for opportunities to rip you off when leaving !

  • DawnFabbricatti Dawn Fabbricatti🇿🇦🇮🇹 (@DawnFabbricatti) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia You LITERALLY cannot be serious right now? Is this how you believe my issue will be solved? And yes, in the last 19 days I have rebooted twice.

  • DoughnutDoney Doughnut Doney (@DoughnutDoney) reported from Benson, England

    @virginmedia plz stop calling me asking if I want an upgrade. Been a loyal customer for over 15 yrs and its getting annoying now. Yes my phone is due for an upgrade but only when I want it. So plz when you say Im on the 'has been contacted list' stick with that 😞

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Hi see first tweet in chain, I have been waiting on CS whom I called and raised a call back complaint request with before I tweeted my frustration

  • BobBeveridge1 Bob Beveridge (@BobBeveridge1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia When your expensive fibre broadband crashes in the middle of an online meeting with an MP this is bloody frustrating and unacceptable. Your service is often unreliable in the middle of the day. Can it be fixed or do I need another provider as backup?

  • mkn1ght Ultra Mugnus (@mkn1ght) reported from Reading, England

    @monstroso @virginmedia A problem we all have.

  • JulianHull Julian Hull (@JulianHull) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia having problems with internet in GU14. Will this be resolved soon

  • allij1972 Alli J (@allij1972) reported

    @virginmedia Appalling service from Virgin again! Was given a better deal when contract ended, only for them to wrongly delete channels AND charge me way more money! Rang yesterday to complain, was called a liar by CS and told a manager would call within 4hrs - over 24hrs ago!!🤬

  • MauroOrru Mauro Enrico Orru (@MauroOrru) reported

    @virginmedia I have been calling 3 times a day for a week to cancel my contract and you put me on a queue for 1 hour each time with no response then the line cuts off. Consider this as notice as it is impossible to serve you notice as your website instructs to do. I'm cancelling direct debit.

  • MoreThanAjax Milo (@MoreThanAjax) reported

    Wow I've been sitting in a @virginmedia help chat for over an hour now just trying to get someone to come and install my broadband hub as there isn't the proper connector. As a first time customer not very happy with the support

  • GabrielaLibanio GabrielaLibanio (@GabrielaLibanio) reported

    @virginmedia Do I know? How do I know what the hell is going on, since two weeks. Nominee came to my house. No one answers my calls. No service. How embarrassing for you. Such a horrible service.

  • allij1972 Alli J (@allij1972) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not letting me sign into that,besides I shouldn’t have to see some notice on the website when I was promised a callback from a manager. This isn’t my first case of awful service from Virgin so why should I be surprised! I’ve received nothing but lies from everyone I talk to!

  • buttons1010 tim butler (@buttons1010) reported

    @virginmedia There’s was - now the green light has gone off on the hub but internet is still poor - whether there is an issue in the area it is still not good enough as this happens too often @Ofcom

  • ajmurrell Adam Murrell (@ajmurrell) reported

    @virginmedia - no fibre broadband service at TW2 - work was carried out today and since then service has been down. When will this be resolved?

  • MarlonKameka Marlon Kameka (@MarlonKameka) reported

    @virginmedia My Internet has been down for the last several hours. What's going on and when will this be fixed?

  • buttons1010 tim butler (@buttons1010) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve already sent a complaint in - let’s see how you as a company deal with it

  • DekymcG Space Ghost Coast To Coast (@DekymcG) reported

    @virginmedia I get that, but I got my bill in today and the recent outage wasn't deducted... This is absolutely ridiculous!!
