  • LAURABELLE72 Laura Elliott (@LAURABELLE72) reported from Thundersley, England

    Have some sense @virginmedia if your mobile phone systems are having issues why wait until the caller has been on hold for over 15 minutes to play the recorded message that says there's nothing you can do about it #********* #CustomerService

  • LawroGardiner Lawrence Gardiner ➡️ (@LawroGardiner) reported from Basildon, England

    @Dianemiddleto @tankhead666 @virginmedia Thanks. I got the text hours after talking to Virgin Media on the phone to activate my hub after a house move. Never had it before. Something not right in their call centres.

  • DebzGlover Debz Glover😜 (@DebzGlover) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia 2nd complaint made via your website as still no contact from the resolution team!

  • MalcolmLouth Mac (@MalcolmLouth) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia My approach is simply to contact my service provider who I pay a lot of money to and ask them to sort it. That hasn’t worked.

  • MalcolmLouth Mac (@MalcolmLouth) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia WiFi signal is awful. Called you 100 times. Keep getting same run around. Will find someone who can deliver.

  • KudaLudaLegend1 Kuda Madzikanda (@KudaLudaLegend1) reported from Gravesend, England

    Seriously getting towards 24hr broadband outage..Can someone tell me if I can cancel my contract as technically @virginmedia have not met their contractual obligation🤔

  • WUFC2005 Football 4 All (@WUFC2005) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia nothing but issues. 2G & 5G always stops working. Updates happens when ever it feels like. And every time I contact Virgin, it's like talking to a 6 year old.

  • nickihendrix4 nickihendrix (@nickihendrix4) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia what the actual **** is wrong with you people if it was phone bill you guys would have deducted all long time ago but y’all don’t want me to make calls and y’all decided not to warn us either. I swear to God I’m not paying my bill this month periodt

  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia I’ve going through this process since 20th March! I’m unable to talk on the phone easily due to a brain injury. I’m still waiting for a response from the resolution team!!

  • marcsnappy Marc Corn (@marcsnappy) reported from Basildon, England

    @Shadow_Official @virginmedia This issue I found happened more on wifi, I had to put in a secondary switch and run everything via Ethernet.

  • karl_holden Karl Holden (@karl_holden) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia the service is deteriorating. Time to review your performance and reveal the source of your problems before your customer base starts to become even more disenchanted.

  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia No advice, no contact = appalling service. This is the problem!

  • sharonblaxland Sharon (@sharonblaxland) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia has gone down, no internet and only a few obscure tv channels.... that I’m watching, so I can keep watching telly 😳

  • NormanStiff Namron #FBPE (@NormanStiff) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia HI, your on-demand service is not really on- demand, I tried to watch Sundays Line of Duty today it is not on demand unless I pay another service, why is this.

  • marcsnappy Marc Corn (@marcsnappy) reported from Basildon, England

    Hey @virginmedia you better offer me a better deal tomorrow or else I will be leaving. New customers are always treated better than existing. I know from experience with you guys that this never changes.

    @virginmedia I've been on hold on the phone for 1hour 50 minutes because my speed is ridiculously low. I cant log in to my account to request help, I can't make a complaint, I can do nothing. This is days after being told not to leave because you "Have the best service".
