    @virginmedia Ok so I need to arrange another visit I won’t be contacted? Can you see how bad this looks? Now I’ll be in London I need to arrange someone to be there to let an engineer in unless there is a smaller window

    @virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.

    @virginmedia I had already look at this page previously. And when we have issues there is no indication on what it could be, I. E the *********** light is in as if its connected

  • MarkPashby
    Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

  • joniread68

    Any @virginmedia customers out there who’ve been landed a price increase - just ring them on 03454541111 and the automated service immediately offers you a £4.50 pm discount for 6 months = £27 of savings. Bit of a weird way of doing business but obvs hope many just suck it up. 👍

    Virgin Media broadband down AGAIN. Service Status website & app don’t work as no internet connection 🤨 @virginmedia

  • goonergeek2000
    Gary Thompson (@goonergeek2000) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia right I’ve just about had enough of virgin customer services. Cancelled service on 10 December. Today find out account is live after logging in. On hold four times for over 45 minutes. Latest on hold for 1hr 19 minutes. Call gets answered then cut off! What the hell

  • GoonerGrizzly
    grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

  • AViTSCJ
    Scott Jackson (@AViTSCJ) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia why is it when you request cancellation of service via phone and getting cut off mid call , then sending and email and also trying to chase via web chat which I also sent my request for cancellation and then move out two months later . They keep the account open 🤬

  • becshawyer
    Becca (@becshawyer) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia disgusting customer service ... after months of issues still not being resolved our latest phone call after raising a complaint the customer service representative hung up on me! Getting to the point now where we will be leaving 😡

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    . @virginmedia down yet again? Not able to watch On Demand and error messages. Plus their website is down. 🙄

  • joniread68

    @virginmedia no way of contacting you over cancelling my contract, lines are down. How do we speak to you?

  • KeeleyOF101
    Keeley O'Flaherty (@KeeleyOF101) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia you came to my mums house to fix cable. You’ve left having disconnected her phone line and sent it to a neighbour house who is now being rude. Been on hold hour on phone. Both in poor health phone Essential

    @virginmedia Hi, had a call this morning allegedly from you saying my internet service was compromised and malware was being downloaded, then proceeded to ask questions which I refused to answer. Was it you lot?

  • RogerCole10135
    roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia reply to your tweet “NO” my wife pays a lot of money to your company for a poor service.

  • GoonerGrizzly
    grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia I have spoken to your CS team about raising a complaint and have been told that the complaints procedure is for existing customers. As I am yet to go live, I am not considered a customer and therefore have no where to go.

    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media wifi been unstable since June 2020. Virgin Media never resolved the problem caused me to lose hundreds of £'s. Made me lose my PIP. Virgin made me pay double because they kept charging me twice most months. They've made me lose half my PC Guarantee

    Jack 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@kriegarjack) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia They have the absolute worst customer support these days too. Virgin media was great before they merged with O2. Now they are absolute garbage

  • WeHearYou2020
    WeHearYou (@WeHearYou2020) reported

    @virginmedia @rafthemaster They offer an awful service. When there was a national outage a fee weeks ago our main box coincidentally went off and stopped working. Spent nearly two hours on the phone waiting and then trying to explain our problem. We were promised a new box. Still waiting. Shocking service.

  • DjRkzr86
    DJ_rkzr86 (@DjRkzr86) reported

    @PeteUK7 @itsendeavour @virginmedia Spoiler alert, they won't. Feedback it's nothing else than automated spam to decive customers they care. I've been with virgin almost decade and at least half of it was my negative feedback and they services only getting worst.

  • Adam83492464721
    Adam (@Adam83492464721) reported

    @Nasher6328 @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Nah **** that. If I need to go through the song and dance anyway I may as well switch and get whatever freebies they throw to new customers. It’s just a stupid system that doesn’t reward loyalty and means we all have to waste our time every 2 years.

  • honestdan07
    HonestDan (@honestdan07) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Put a complaint of harassment and as executor you have suffered additional upset and stress from the constant emails or letters and that you had correctly notified them some time ago. Also make a complaint to ofcom and trading standards.

    @virginmedia internet is down and out I have no power what do ever leading to my router ? What seems to be the problem ?

  • kevdev83
    K D (@kevdev83) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Hilarious your being charged at all with service down for a week or two now nationally they should stick some of that cash in the hackers bank so service can resume

  • mlogandigital
    Mark Logan | Ecommerce Consultant (@mlogandigital) reported

    So you get a bill from @virginmedia to say your bill is doubling from tomorrow but can't get in touch with anyone on support to sort it out. @skytv just come and take my money

  • noelle_nole1
    Noëlle Ombre de la Rue (@noelle_nole1) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia The most frustrating for me was trying to cancel my husband’s mobile phone contract. In the end I lost it and told them they could sue his estate. As if by magic a supervisor appeared and sorted it out.

  • HamsterSick
    MerlinJ (@HamsterSick) reported

    I absolutely detest @virginmedia I crave the end of the contract this year. Dog **** service.
