  • 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.

  • YoungJambo
    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.

  • 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

  • gxyred
    Jared (@gxyred) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia Says no known faults but on down detector there’s lots of reports. I don’t think the internet has ever gone down until y’all came to improve the service last week eek

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

    @virginmedia for the last 8 weeks internet has randomly dropped out several times ,about once per day ,I know others in area have had same problem and apparently won’t be fixed until 27th may .not contacted via phone due to current condition .

  • 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!

    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!!

  • RLA1971
    Mrs A and Princess Marlow 🐶 (@RLA1971) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia engineer spoke with us yesterday morning & agreed to send new hub with a next day delivery Been in all day, taking unpaid time off work & no delivery! Can you investigate as I’m a home worker & this is causing major problems Thank you

  • Keifski
    Craig Keith (@Keifski) reported from Ringwood, England

    @Kate_likes_ @virginmedia I’m in the BH postcode and can’t even get Virgin Media.... annoying as the speed everywhere else is ****!

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia 2 hours and counting to try and cancel my contracts with you. What terrible service!

  • DeemersPaul
    Deemers (@DeemersPaul) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia It was listed as extra charges, but not specificity what they relate to. When I called to cancel, I was told my final amount & these weren’t mentioned. I only want to know what they are, why is it so difficult to find out

  • 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?

  • JCT6

    @virginmedia YOU’VE CANCELLED MY SWITCH AGAIN. THREE TIMES YOU’VE DONE THIS. It’s unbelievable that you can get away with it. @ofcom @MoneySavingExp Please help.

  • Kilsally_Redux
    Kilsally Redux (@Kilsally_Redux) reported

    Virgin Media O2 is gearing up to provide wholesale access to its network to challenge the dominance of BT. But it said Openreach was seeking to “choke” off competition before it had truly begun by luring third party companies away.

    Steve O (@saoc78) reported

    @virginmedia why is your Comms so rubbish? There's an outage in the area, confirmed on the website, but I keep getting texts saying it's fixed. 8 texts in the last 2 mins too. But everything is still off and your site still says there's an outage.

  • Gazza_FPL
    FPL Gazza (@Gazza_FPL) reported

    @virginmedia who can help with an issue. Over 4 weeks since signed up but still no resolution to issue regarding unable to sign in to account. Also complaint number C-1007267370 pending. IT number PO1361386. #VirginMedia

  • sjslfcforever
    Si Smith (@sjslfcforever) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve now been booted off the phone as your automated service is not very good and your live chat has kicked me off twice in the last half hour, I’m glad your saving money getting a bot to handle calls but maybe a human being would be better, could someone contact me.

  • elainerust
    Dr Elaine Rust (@elainerust) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve sent a direct message but have received an auto response identical to the message you have already sent me. Is anyone prepared to help?

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    @AmyHeppi @virginmedia Same here. It’s been over 24 hours and my Wi-Fi is still down. I’ve called support twice—they only say there’s an area outage with no updates. The status page isn't helpful too. Really disappointed with Virgin Media. Time to look at other providers.

    Leon Fear (@LeonFear) reported

    If I paid @virginmedia pro-rata, on the basis they provided a reliable service, my bill would be around £1.50 a month!
