    Just had to put a 2nd call into @virginmedia this afternoon to sort out the problem they caused from this mornings call to them, which was to attempt to sort out issues from a previous call to them 🤬 New TV aerial installed next week and once @CityFibre are running, VM are gone!

    . @virginmedia internet down again! Service status says up but I’ve checked with friends who live nearby and down for them too! BH7 area. We did have good internet for 2 days. What is going on? We were half way through a rented film!

    @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 .

    Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Any idea @virginmedia why for the last couple of weeks my virgin box has been recording programmes completely randomly. Programmes i never watch nor ever recorded? This has happened to four different shows this week alone?

  • YoungJambo
    Jamie Will (@YoungJambo) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia You also "aim" to provide internet that actually works and customer service that doesn't lie to the customer just to get them off the phone, how's that working out? #VirginMedia #DoBetter

  • BelvoirCchurch
    Jeremy Clarke (@BelvoirCchurch) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia How will we know when you have sorted out the mess at your end? Will you let me know or do I have to keep spending my money calling you listening to that awful out of tune hold music?

  • Gavin_Lifestyle

    Another day, trying to do admin at home. Another day and wanting to literally throw my @virginmedia router under a lorry!!! What is it with @virginmedia and their lousy WiFi???? Paying for a premium service and receiving something not far better than dialup!!

  • Connor_HC18
    Connor mellish (@Connor_HC18) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I am having problems with the virgin media business router that gets up to 350mbps. Keeps dropping out. Not a speed problem it’s the stability of it.

  • MattandPt

    Been on online chat for 6 hours with no response. AWFUL customer service @virginmedia

  • 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

  • CarlJTaylor23
    Carl Taylor (@CarlJTaylor23) reported from St. Leonards and St. Ives, England

    @virginmedia - 3 times I got cut off on the phone trying to tell you I need to cancel, now been moving to 3 different ‘live chat’ people and still not sorted. Even if you do cover my new house in the future I will not come back.

  • TirEoghain59
    Bourneirish (@TirEoghain59) reported from Christchurch, England

    @virginmedia Promised management call back which never happened, half hour waits then advised to do online complaint.... 😑Then to be told online complaint system doesn't work. Such poor customer service throughout

  • _Matt_Simpson_
    Matt Simpson (@_Matt_Simpson_) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi doesn’t work and I have no idea why, or where even to start. Could you help please?

  • YoungJambo
    Jamie Will (@YoungJambo) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia Also, MOST of your customer service representatives are rude and don't know what they're talking about. Did you know one of them told me to dial 150 for CS, even though I clarified that I'm NOT a Virgin Mobile customer? "Yes, yes this still works for you sir." Nope.

    @virginmedia Which part of I am disabled and cannot do this on demand do you not understand? Did you even think of the consequences on your disabled customers? You weren't upfront re my current, working router being switched off after just 5 days. Disgusting service. Now I'm without any

    @Benleo @virginmedia I'm surprised that an investigative journalist even accepted these conditions in the 1st place. VM has an awful reputation for this kind of behaviour which is widely known. Sorry this happened to you but it was to be expected

    @virginmedia I've managed to sort it. Your customer service is appalling and because they're based in India, they lack any form of understanding or compassion and language barriers made the entite situation worse. Your UK based customer service team are flawless.
