    Jamie Will (@YoungJambo) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia I was contacting you about the terrible service. I didn't have internet for a week and had to use up all of my data hotspotting as I work from home. Your disconnection team member "Helen" was rude and argumentative and kept shouting over the top of me. Go and listen to the call.

  • tragic_velvet
    The Ginger Bear (@tragic_velvet) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Called virgin media last week. Part 1 Me - I'd like to cancel please. VM - you can't, it can only be a minimum of 60 before your contract ends. Called back today (less than 60 days) Me - I'd like to cancel please VM - I can see another agent has already cancelled.

    @bt_uk Absolutely love that virgin media has been out and clearly not fixed a problem but instead ruined our internet connection this morning! Thanks very much!!

    @deborabora @virginmedia I am so glad I left them in 2017 having suffered poor internet for over 2 years. Constant issues when I was in BH6.

    @virginmedia Is there an internet problem in Bournemouth??

  • MikeWalker2012
    Mike Walker (@MikeWalker2012) reported from Poole, England

    Absolutely loath @virginmedia's over priced 360, and like their customer service, it's just rubbish, can't wait for @CityFibre to go online in our area so that I can trash VM, even if I have to take a hit when I cancel as locked into a contract at the mo, it'll be worth it!😡😠

    Tamzin L A Lee (@TamzLALee) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia can you please explain why it is impossible to cancel a contract with you. Can get through for anything else but when you want to cancel you are put on hold for hours

  • keithward329
    keith nigel ward (@keithward329) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia another scam today, 01623472871 close them down

  • echodaz
    Darren Slade (@echodaz) reported from Poole, England

    And my Virgin Media broadband and TV goes down for the second time this evening, just as I'm watching Wolf Blitzer do his thing on CNN.

  • bluemoonpete
    bluemoonpete (@bluemoonpete) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia how do I speak to someone? I use chatbot & give up after waiting for an agent for over 1hr,I send message & you will call back in 10 working days or I call and you say you are too busy & kill the call. HELP

  • TamzLALee
    Tamzin L A Lee (@TamzLALee) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia this is an absolute joke now, I do not have time to just sit on hold all day. You clearly make it impossible for people to cancel their contracts on purpose

  • babyduck999
    babyduck (@babyduck999) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia can someone DM me please? I want to cancel my subscription but don't want to spend all day on the phone talking to someone who doesn't understand what I'm saying - thank you .

  • goddard95
    Emma Goddard (@goddard95) reported from Christchurch, England

    @virginmedia Nope, dreadful. That’s not customer service, that’s off loading to a computer. Not helpful for a 87 year old.

  • LaurenSTompkins
    Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia so how many more hours are we going to have to wait for this problem to sorted out. Impossible to do any work when you cannot even have a reliable connection!

  • LaurenSTompkins
    Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Hey @virginmedia all of last night and now this morning my home broadband is not working. I’ve reset the router several times not made any difference.

  • officer_cartman
    Mark Bates (@officer_cartman) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia Basically cut a long story I did agree a deal however it appears despite me asking for confirmation and then saying yes they put through the wrong one ,I chatted again this morning and basically told no you can’t ,it was literally like the new customer deal with a minor variation

  • LonerganChris
    Chris Lonergan (@LonerganChris) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia guys so you know your customer service is the absolute worst! My router has completely died and your trying to send me an engineer now I have to wait 4 days so can’t work! The internet never works! £56 a month for what?!?!

    @gail_hendry @virginmedia I would be happy just to be able to speak to someone who is English and can understand me and vice-versa been with these since it was “Telewest” currently WORST SERVICE ( communications) I have EVER had signing me up for deals ( some Indian/pakastani) I don’t even want

  • TraderPaulFX
    TraderPaulAI ✿ (@TraderPaulFX) reported

    @CityFibre have blanket banned anyone from having fast fibre broadband who has a Telecare device (warden alarm system). @virginmedia the only realistic alternative in my area, had me up and running within 3 days of ordering. No dramas, excellent service!

  • DillB1976

    @virginmedia @ShirleySarah70 You dont reply to messages, you have not responded to me for 4 hours on an issue that is not resolved

  • trail_71

    @virginmedia It says there’s a fault but hoping to fix by May 18th 🤷 I’ve rebooted the box and it seems fine now

    @virginmedia the service with the WiFi or TV services in the BR5 is poor. 3 times in the last week one of them has went down, today it's the WiFi again.

  • kimtaylor18
    Kim Taylor (@kimtaylor18) reported

    Apparently now it’s not me it’s a network issue in the area… again!!!! Only taken a day to figure that out 🫣 awful @virginmedia

  • ShirleySarah70
    ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported

    @JaneVCarroll @virginmedia Theyve been downright rude to me on the phone today. As soon as I can cancel my services with them the better. A customer of over 20 years and because I'm a mature 72 year old woman they speak to me as if I'm stupid. Cancelling next week.

  • PHILROOKS
    just me (@PHILROOKS) reported

    @virginmedia @kimtaylor18 Like what....what can you actually do to help this customer...nowt. it sounds good but be honest, people will respect you more
