  • dionne_angus Dionne Angus (@dionne_angus) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia just love paying for services which I'm not getting! Seriously sort it out or I will be going elsewhere. No tv, no internet your service is an absolute joke!

  • donnataylor7 Donna Webster (@donnataylor7) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I didn’t receive my new contract on April, was not told of 6 month discount price shot up and I had to fight to get my billing date changed. Overall not a good service 😡. Took me over 30 mins on telephone to try and resolve

  • donnataylor7 Donna Webster (@donnataylor7) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I have resolved it now but I’m tired of having to fight to get a good service. I had to threaten to report it to Watchdog before getting through to someone who could help.

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Service outage AGAIN, this is now starting to become ridiculous... when will I start getting a reliable service!!!! This is not what I pay for @virginmedia

  • Noice113 Noice1 (@Noice113) reported from Finchampstead, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to cancel and on three occasions have asked for help my bills have gone up by 45% no explanation shame on you

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

    @dgrutsch @virginmedia @SkyMediaUK @virginmedia has lost direction and customer focus IMO. After trying to tell me there was no fault in my area, before agreeing for an engineer to visit and check system (multiple faults) it proposed sending a pack of cables for me to try and fix myself. Err I don’t think so!

  • danarnie Danny Daly-Arnett (@danarnie) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I ring and get hung up on after being on hold for 6 minutes. I just want what I was offered on Friday. I am not very happy with the customer service I am receiving at the moment and will just walk away. I have been a customer for 10 years and get no perks just bigger bills

  • roballan07 Rob Allan (@roballan07) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Yes when talking about the quality of customer service I have received from @virginmedia in the past week.

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Not impressed, area service is restored but my service is still down. Engineer booked for Tuesday - do you really call this service!!!! I seem to have ongoing issues with Virgin Media - seriously considering changing my provider.

  • danarnie Danny Daly-Arnett (@danarnie) reported from Bracknell, England

    @laaqpr @virginmedia The new one is. “It’s all gone through” Then never receive an email and still paid what you are paying with the “system” saying I never called

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Really need to consider my options and look at other service providers - ongoing intermittent service for a week now and keep getting fobbed off by you CSA's - I think you may want to consider reviewing your customer services. #badcustomerservice #virginmedia

  • debi_feltimo Debi Brown (@debi_feltimo) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Transfer, he moved today so is really panicking that he cannot contact anyone. I can’t even check if the service will be available in his new home

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Proposed resolution time is 16h00 - so service has been out since 10h30 and I work from home...

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Was not anticipating having to leave when i called in, was unhappy you increased my monthly charge and had not been advised. Was told you could do this and there was nothing you could do to rectify the overcharge. Been a loyal customer for 8 years and got treated this way

  • CorneliusEvans Chris Evans (@CorneliusEvans) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Netflix is not working with our broadband service you might want to looking in to this as all other streaming service work fine. P.s I’m VM service tech 😉

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Rochdale Cowboy (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @UxbridgeLord @marxistniklas @Jim27371416 @DansTweeterings @jeremycorbyn @virginmedia There'll be nothing stopping you from buying it in the future. Not sure what your issue is with a policy that gives other people something you don't want, and which doesn't cost you anything.

  • kyle2tweet kyle2tweet (@kyle2tweet) reported from Bracknell, England

    @JackSheaFFC @virginmedia I know so if I’m waiting for a call back then OBVIOUSLY I’ve already raised a complaint 🤣 no common sense with this company!

  • mattrobertsCFC Matt Roberts (@mattrobertsCFC) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia Definitely not broadband on, @amazonprimesport need to sort out their network.

  • kyle2tweet kyle2tweet (@kyle2tweet) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia looks like I’ll have to cancel my direct debit coming out next month maybe that will get this call back I’ve been promised. Terrible terrible company!

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia , have been a customer for many years, my recent experience of your customer service was appalling and no empathy shown or value for my custom. I said your service makes want to leave, I was told that’s my choice, so leaving

    **** you @virginmedia you are an absolute disgrace of a company and your service matches your attitude!! #SHITSERVICE #SHITCOMPANY

  • DeborahLaing3 Deborah Laing (@DeborahLaing3) reported

    Impossible to speak to someone at virgin media been trying for days and when I do get through they hang up on you

  • Serem Emma K (@Serem) reported

    @virginmedia It’s less about preference and more about any kind of service at all where you’re not ignored or cut off.

  • journostacey Stacey Mullen (@journostacey) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I’m calling the staff spend a considerable amount of time chatting to me then say they can’t do it I need transferred I’m left on hold ages then you hang up! It’s happened numerous times.

  • waheed04 Waheed Mahmood (@waheed04) reported

    @virginmedia I understand but talking to manager never happens. I called back this morning after promised a call back and 2hours later nothing. I will see what happens the share details of the issues and various (broken) promises to get some response from Virgin Media.

  • BurchColin Colin Burch (@BurchColin) reported

    @virginmedia What do you think Virgin Media? Coincidence or not, you decide, or expect to lose yet another customer soon.

  • JLW346 Jason Whalley (@JLW346) reported

    Just called @virginmedia to ask why I’ve been charged disconnection fees. They ended the call when I repeated my question … a new customer service tactic? What they can’t hear they can’t deal with!

  • TinyPotato___ 💀 Beth 💀 (@TinyPotato___) reported

    @virginmedia We’ve discussed cancelling our contract and being compensated for what will, by Thursday be 10 days loss of service, and after the experience we’ve had we will be continuing forward with that.

  • JKArgick Argick (@JKArgick) reported

    @Joesephyr Unfortunately no. I've had a number of issues over the years with Virgin Media and each time they wanna wait 24 hours to see if it continues. Really frustrating when it does happen cause most of the time they're the ones doing something without telling us.

  • BurchColin Colin Burch (@BurchColin) reported

    @virginmedia They remain unlit unless the device detects an issue or during rebooting.
