  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia You expect me to pay £70+ per month on the dot or you’ll cut me off... if I complain about lack of internet and tv people at virgin media drag their backsides not to help or compensate us customers when it goes horribly wrong but you’ll demand to be paid in full every month !!

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I want to make official complaint no one is responding to my texts and there for please send me a link to take my grievances about the sheer incompetence and deliberate misinformation and lack of clarity.

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia someone was supposed to have called me today at 11. What a surprise again no one has called me back! Disappointed and disgusted by the lack of customer service.

  • holly192306 Holly Staveley (@holly192306) reported from Leeds, England

    @mrsjackson2205 @virginmedia This is the reason we cancelled with them. We had an on going complaint for around 6 months!! Terrible company so glad we got rid! You cannot talk to anyone on the phone and when you do they are as much use as a chocolate fire guard!

  • jimp1822 jim petticrew (@jimp1822) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia , what a terrible service, without broadband again, been over a week now customer service non exsistant. Looks like I’ll be giving @skyUK a call

  • 74Scottclarke scott (@74Scottclarke) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia customer services an absolute joke they will not take notice on messenger & insist I follow there instructions on booster that they sent yesterday

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia You talk about SLA what about telling and training your staff about SLA and not to blatantly lie to customers in order to end and move on to the next customer... why can’t you lt do that! Instead of pontificate to me as a customer on SLA guidelines!

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I have FINALLY resolved my issues and proved that I was in fact been over charged by you! And I shall be making an official complaint due to unnecessary stress which has severely impacted on my personal health. It has been unacceptable how you have all dealt with me!

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I think your messaging service is having a dicky fit it keep asking if I need any help and asks me to type yes or no... so I type yes. It say someone will be in touch soon.. then few seconds later it asks me the same questions over and over 😡

  • Chris_Johnson85 Chris Johnson (@Chris_Johnson85) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Yes both wired and wireless items are not working. I have rebooted the router and it makes no difference im still on hold as well we are now hitting the 45 minute mark!!

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia And this is how you can get away with blue murder because it not consecutive interruptions but in my case it was in September and you move the parameters to suite your statistics even when I complained that my entire weekend with out internet and limited tv service

  • James1Nemeth James Nemeth (@James1Nemeth) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia 2nd weekend in a row where there is a problem in my area with the Internet! This is ridiculous

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia No I submitted a complaint form yesterday but I’m unsure if it was sent. I never received a ref number so I do doubt if it submitted successfully,

  • cymrobin Robin J Smith (@cymrobin) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Thanks, but we've been getting frequent Outage Update messages for about three weeks so far - "our estimated repair time is now..."

  • SamanthaCarmic7 Samantha Carmichael (@SamanthaCarmic7) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia we’ve just had a 3rd phone call in 2 days, from someone claiming to be from virginmedia. Saying they need to remotely access our computer to resolve an issue with our router. Needless to say we smelt a rat. But wanted to inform you that this is happening.

  • Alistair_____xd Alistair (@Alistair_____xd) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It is for my boradband connection, I already have a complaint logged about it, just sick of spending my life on hold to you guys.

  • whoisdougie Nathan Spooklas (@whoisdougie) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia and to make matters worse, your service checker is now no longer working. This is an actual joke. Paying nearly £50 a month for terrible service.

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia @virgin @richardbranson @BBCWatchdog Yet again virgin media has Reneged on a promise! I was assured that someone was going to call me back today at 11 o’clock and now at the time of typing this it’s 1:10 customer service is nil! All they want is my money.

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Mitigating disaster on your part when you offered the text messaging service. I simply didn’t understand how you do your billing and why I needed to pay September bill when I already paid from August 15th to October 8th and I’ve paid October’s bill yesterday to be

  • MichelleTownhil Michelle Hardman B.A (Hons) (@MichelleTownhil) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginnightmare @virginmedia I’ve gone to @BBCWatchdog you should do too! And the more of @virginmedia customers complain they might have to actually do something! And to stop their so called customer services lies! They need to held accountable for what they do and in many cases don’t do.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ddaltry29 Darren Daltry (@ddaltry29) reported

    @virginmedia As I have said before I have looked on the forums and others have the same issue as me and it all comes down to your superhub 3 and the puma chipset that is installed in it. If no one from virgin wants to contact me about this then please just send me a deadlock letter.

  • MrXathon Dylan Prendergast (@MrXathon) reported

    @D40Tomo Hang on. Virgin Media 2 according to the rte guide.

  • braham_george George Braham (@braham_george) reported

    @virginmedia Well now it has been totally cut off as I gave notice on my 14 day calling off period.... despite being told the service would continue for 7 days...

  • SCcrowther Simon Crowther (@SCcrowther) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia As I said, I am aware of the contract - however it reflects very poorly from a customer service perspective. You can’t offer a service to the capital city and want to charge me for your lack of coverage. Shocking business practise. #avoid #ripoffbritain @bbcone

  • _zzdwohc_ 7 (@_zzdwohc_) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve run through all the diagnostics to no avail. Considering Working from here is the norm now for myself and my partner, the only solution I feel is going back to the Hub 3 or boosting the speed of my connection perhaps!

  • KEITHYEO YEO (@KEITHYEO) reported

    Have to say, dealing with @virginmedia is painful. They are literally the worst company in the world.

  • AuramysticAnne Anne Sharman (@AuramysticAnne) reported

    @virginmedia my 92 year old mother's landline in BR2 0UA area has been off twice in the past month for hours. She has a Carelink line in case she falls so this doesn't work as it work through the phone which is worrying. No compensation on the bill either. Phone crackling too.

  • LEiGH_331 Leigh Riseley (@LEiGH_331) reported

    @virginmedia got a technician booked to come to my estate tomorrow - as it’s an estate wide issue and not a house issue do I personally need to be here? My partner is coming off a night shift so if so then I need to cancel and il get someone else on the estate to book them

  • Gary25089974 Gary (@Gary25089974) reported

    @GrievesonAlan @Souts_A You can watch all streaming channels ( apart from live sport you get on amazon ) . All catch up tv (apart from BBCi player) Anything live and you need a licence . I have virgin media , I just now have an internet service with them. They said this is happening a lot.

  • joahhh Josh (@joahhh) reported

    @mjp_2410 @virginmedia They’re the worst. Never going with them again - my move and bill issue still hasn’t been sorted!
