  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • EmmaZhaan64
    Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia according to your representative my wifi is working perfectly and I don’t have any issues! That’s a bit odd considering I no service what so ever!

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I’d love to hear from how I’m supposed to report an issue with my broadband. You can’t do it via live chat and seemingly not via the phone either as you’re “experiencing difficulties”

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.

  • BLTwitchy
    Berni Turner 🖤🌹 (@BLTwitchy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No I’m not an idiot it was during covid I’ll go back and find it . The chief execs office rang me personally as I’m disabled

  • TheWiganParky
    Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.

  • jgrailpics
    James (@jgrailpics) reported from Liverpool, England

    Completely pathetic useless company @virginmedia Every single day there's some sort of problem EVERY SINGLE DAY Can't wait til this contracts over, after that in a bit useless crap

  • Radebreast
    Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

  • 1AnneMcCormack
    Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @DoctorLemma Well done . Always had great service from @virginmedia just cant afford them anymore.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

  • kevsauno
    Kevin Saunderson* (@kevsauno) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia hello, issues with TV and WiFi in Liverpool L12 area this morning. No issues showing on the app. Tried all the usual stuff but still no connection.

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

  • lurkinhead
    Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

    Sharon Hall (@sharonmariahall) reported

    @virginmedia i emailed a complaint on your webform on 3 April. Why have i never received a reply? Please dont ask me to send you a direct message. I have and again, not received a response. Your customer service is non existent.

  • HaggisJuli93452
    Jules (@HaggisJuli93452) reported

    @virginmedia Hi have received a new 360 box to replace our current TiVo one. Getting error message Account error CS1011. Tried ringing 150 , from mobile says sorry can't connect try later, rang 150 from landline , recorded message states no not recognised. Help!

  • miaKJKJ22
    mia (@miaKJKJ22) reported

    @virginmedia @entrustTMF Do you think it's funny?? People pay for service which you cannot deliver

  • BenChubb4
    Ben C (@BenChubb4) reported

    @virginmedia Ive now been told that to get my ticket number, they will need to raise a new ticket further delaying the original problem resolution date. That cannot be true and doesn’t work like that in other organisations who use tickets and escalation points through a CRM system

  • edujones14
    Ed Jones (@edujones14) reported

    I genuinely thought that @MercedesBenz had set an unbeatable standard for appalling customer service. @virginmedia “Hold my beer”

  • Gtmcdonald1996
    Glenn McDonald (@Gtmcdonald1996) reported

    @virginmedia and your team has left the chat twice with no solution!

  • justarieldotcom
    Ariel Online (@justarieldotcom) reported

    @NotEnoughTECH @virginmedia @virginmedia used to be one of if not the best broadband provider in the UK. They even won some customer service awards x years ago if i remember correctly. At one point everything just fell apart. Customer service became non existent, they started to treat customers unfairly and many other issues. I wonder what happened tbh🤔

  • LubZafar
    Lubdub (@LubZafar) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve sent back my equipment in two phases. One was sent last year and you want to charge me again. You have a useless non contactable customer service so this needs to be resolved in one message

  • DavMichael
    mike davies (@DavMichael) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been sent a new router and it won’t let me connect any devices to it it’s a hub 5. I followed the instructions on the box to the letter. I’ve tried ringing the support number on the box which is completely automated and useless. Any advise ?

  • howdo01
    Jonathan H (@howdo01) reported

    @virginmedia I did, says all was working no faults or errors, so don't what else I can do, must be your end.
