    @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.

  • smithsterbloke Gary Smith (@smithsterbloke) reported from Bracknell, England

    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

  • 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

  • rohaaminho Najm Khan (@rohaaminho) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia Is this related to this breach. If not that’s even worse and just says the service is really bad

  • 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.

  • cobysaur Ryan Byford (@cobysaur) reported from Wokingham, England

    I wonder if @virginmedia and @vodafoneuk use the same backbone or something. Both services are down or extremely slow since 17:00

  • 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.

  • Mitch__cr Not Mitch (@Mitch__cr) reported

    @virginmedia Good morning, I need some help. I ordered a self-install broadband and the expected delivery date was yesterday and I have still not received it. I also didn't get an email or text from Yodel and I cant call up because they ask for an account number which i dont have

  • kimbooth21 kim booth (@kimbooth21) reported

    @virginmedia I have no idea! Your call handler's were that rude and ignorant that I ended the call on the 3rd idiot I was passed to after 30 mins on the phone, half of that in hold, after confirming that he had the details of the issue and left it in their incapable hands!!

  • neilkeeble Neil CFC Keeble ⭐️⭐️ (@neilkeeble) reported

    @virginmedia You really own no 1 as most difficult company to be a customer of

  • voottelecom VOOT (@voottelecom) reported

    Looks like @vmbusiness internet connections down again in Kelham Island Sheffield, as our monitored connections are all notifying us at the same time. 1020am Wednesday 11th May #sheffield

  • neilkeeble Neil CFC Keeble ⭐️⭐️ (@neilkeeble) reported

    @virginmedia I did that lots the other day , which is my whole point , So your saying you may of wasted a day , we cocked up and now it’s your problem to repeat the whole thing again , beyond belief

  • MattJamesBoyle Matt Boyle (@MattJamesBoyle) reported

    @tomrebbeck Virgin media broadband is horrible on all fronts; Customer service, stability and price. I only use it because I have no other option. As more fibre options become available, more people will jump ship. Retention is not a good metric to measure for companies with a monopoly.

  • MardenLuke Luke Marden (@MardenLuke) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is So bad I’ve been trying for 4 days to cut my services currently on hold AGAIN for the 34min #poorcustomerservice

  • ken_frost Ken Frost (@ken_frost) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I did and there are issues, when will they be fixed please?

  • ameliaa_hall Amelia Louise (@ameliaa_hall) reported

    @virginmedia What are we paying for if our WiFi is not working? Not even the plugged in is working. Yesterday we are told the WiFi can not even be guaranteed so what is my money going on? Each phone call I am asked to pay more money to get it working, but why would I do that?

  • neilkeeble Neil CFC Keeble ⭐️⭐️ (@neilkeeble) reported

    @virginmedia Then I will pay you no more money simple , I wasted a day this week due to your team’s incompetence and if you think I believe you can’t ask someone to ring me I find that impossible at best and an untruth at worst
