    @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.

  • catch_cancer Catch Me If You Cancer (@catch_cancer) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia good afternoon. I've been on hold for 3 hours and been cut off twice. I'm a vulnerable customer and need to speak to someone

  • K74Marti Marti Jerrard - K74 (@K74Marti) reported from Farnborough, England

    @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.

  • bucksbowler Bucksbowler (@bucksbowler) reported from High Wycombe, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I'm trying to pay a bill through your app, but every time I try to pay, it keeps saying ”session has timed out” and has done for the last couple of days. Before this, I've never had an issue with it but it's not happening this time. Please advise. Thanks.

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

    @Bluebird_7777 @virginmedia Cancel your direct debit. And when they call you - ask them to fix your box

  • Emnjon91 R&J (@Emnjon91) reported

    @virginmedia You have sent a new SIM card which received today spent 30 mins on phone they said it’s registered etc and it will work well it’s still coming up with no network registered etc it really is ridiculous

  • stephen_b1979 Stephen Bell (@stephen_b1979) reported

    @virginmedia Intermittent signal on tv box for almost a week. The virgin site acknowledges their own fault and each day says it will be fixed by the next, but it never is. A rep from virgin also assured me of the same. I now want rid.

  • cheekyric cheekyric (@cheekyric) reported

    @EwenRankin @virginmedia @CommunityFibre Ah, shame as getting 1gb up and down for less than half the price with Virgin. Virgin completely take the piss. Horrific customer service. Would never go back.

  • AMBCharles Ann Charles (@AMBCharles) reported

    @virginmedia I have been calling you for the last two days to cancel my account. I have been kept on hold for hours to no avail. I am going to cancel my standing order now

  • EwenRankin Ewen Rankin (@EwenRankin) reported

    @cheekyric @virginmedia @CommunityFibre ****. London only

  • andrew_daid AndrewDaid (@andrew_daid) reported

    @virginmedia Suddenly today, I can no longer watch All4 app (channel 4) on any devices in my home when connected to my Virgin Media wifi (smart tvs or mobile phones). If I watch All4 using my mobile phone network, everything works fine. This just started today. Any ideas, please?

  • qcritical JPJCR (@qcritical) reported

    @virginmedia I am a loyal existing customer and I’ve experienced awful customer service after trying to work out a better deal other than paying £47..I was offered £39 after paying £25 for 18 months. I am not happy with this at all and now I want to leave!

  • MeechMunchies What the Morbius just happened? (@MeechMunchies) reported

    The Virgin media player only works in one room of my house, just like their crap internet!

  • LS79332359 L S (@LS79332359) reported

    @acwatson @virginmedia @george_ezra Funny you say that because 2 of my calls have also been terminated at 1 hr 3 min…. I’ve now been told to text some mobile number for their text service team to help with renewing my contract with them. I defo lack common sense by doing so but got no choice!

  • mbaqqes abi (@mbaqqes) reported
