    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

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

    Virgin media are such garbage, average at best. Can't wait to bin them off.

  • 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

    It’s Me .... Amy (@BambiAmy78) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @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 useless…..absolutely uncontactable, the worst online help assistant it has ever been my misfortune to use…

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

    @virginmedia But thanks,they have put me on the deal I did t want abs now I will cancel in the next 13 days ie coming off ,the fact of being treated akin with contempt is mind boggling from a rentions point of view

    @virginmedia Down time again service just getting worse and worse

  • wordsbypage
    Emma Page (@wordsbypage) reported from Bournemouth, England

    The Internet dropping out or down to next to nothing every 10 minutes since midday wouldn’t be an issue if I didn’t have a deadline. @virginmedia remind me why I am paying for the top package.

  • DarkchatCarl
    Carl Baldwin (@DarkchatCarl) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia can someone please help regarding package changes that aren't what we agreed? 2 hour chat on Thurs agreed new price with customer svce. Confirmation received shows more expensive price. Easy way to fix? Don't want to try cust svc again, I don't have 2 hours!

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

    @virginmedia how can you hike prices for existing customers, offer deals for new customers but are unable to answer your own customer service lines? Better deals with BT, why should we pay your extortionate price for terrible service?

  • ithastheanswer
    Stuart Jones (@ithastheanswer) reported from Bournemouth, England

    . @virginmedia our internet has been terrible for the last three days, cost a fortune in mobile data because of this, service status says no problem, your own service test fails when we run it! Why are there so many problems in BH7 area over last few months?

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

    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!

  • Philip_AnthonyB
    Philly B (@Philip_AnthonyB) reported from Poole, England

    @notorious_twub I was with @virginmedia for several years, no end of problems. And their customer service is shocking. I moved to @VodafoneUK for broadband and they have been fantastic. I won’t go back to VM.

  • 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.

    Virgin email been since 8am this morning. Spoke with a person they reset password still not able to login after 12 hours 😡. Not good enough Virgin Media

  • Gavin_Lifestyle
    Lifestyle Gardens Design & Build LTD (@Gavin_Lifestyle) reported from Poole, England

    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!!

  • CharlotteLois
    locharlotte (@CharlotteLois) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia pay for your “fastest” broadband for it not to load most days! Absolutely horrendous price I pay for a rubbish service!

  • 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

  • JackRansom4
    Jack Ransom (@JackRansom4) reported from Burton, England

    @virginmedia Wireless devices. Been going on all morning (this happens regularly but usually better after a reset - not today). Tried following the advice to check for problems in the local area, even that doesn’t work. Literally nothing more i can do.

    DWS | Sound lighting Video installation services (@DWsound) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Was with VM at old residence. Service was fin, suddenly one saturday phone, tv & Internet stopped working. A week later an engineer came out, we had been unplugged by an engineer on that Saturday for a new connection. VM offered a pittance of compensation. Told them to stick it

    @virginmedia another outage 24hrs of intermittent signal. When are you going to fix it

  • christophlander
    Chris Lander (@christophlander) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your faux sympathy, but its still not working. Terrible service. Is there a way to compensate for this?

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Left VM after 10 years! They are ****!

    Cookie (@chrissincl29564) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I have done. Someone said they would call me back then didn’t as your colleague said he couldn’t find a good deal for me… great customer service. You also then tied me into a new contract when I moved home. @Ofcom would be interested im sure Please let me know deals for me

  • DaveRogers27
    Dave Rogers (@DaveRogers27) reported

    @Grimmy01942 @Simon_Whale @virginmedia They did this to me, it was the final straw. I sacked them off and got BT fibre broadband, never looked back.

  • stevehomer_net
    steve homer_net (@stevehomer_net) reported

    @virginmedia @LDA74 In other words: our customer service doesn't exist, click a link and sort it out yourself!

  • MakelyStudio
    Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported

    the thing AI has never once been able to do is walk into a room, understand the real problem before anyone's articulated it, and make a call that changes the direction of the product. I've done that at Sky, Virgin Media, NatWest and Citibank. that's still the job. and it always will be.
