    After over 7 hours, my 'chat' with @virginmedia customer services has just ended without them managing to do either of the things I asked them to, namely to match a better offer elsewhere or book a cancellation of my service more than 30 days in advance. They are truly the worst.

    @virginmedia the customer service is absolutely dreadful. I’ve been on the phone for an hour and tried the WhatsApp service. Is there anyway to get some help?

    @virginmedia I understand its not appropriate on here.. i have already asked my mother to call you next week, i hope you can’t suitably help her as the cost of her contract is almost as much as i pay with a competitor and i have a lot more in terms of contract and VM isnt available here.

    Virgin Media’s gone down, their website has gone down, so I come to Twitter to check if I’m the only one.. apparently not! Better dust that book off instead.

  • BurringtonPhil
    Burrington (@BurringtonPhil) reported from Plympton, England

    @virginmedia I have made several formal complaints about broadband problems but cannot get to speak to anyone. After multiple router resets by Virgin media remotely, which cures the problems in the short term, I am still having to re connect my Sky Q box and printer manually.

    As a Virgin Media customer your service would have not changed in the slightest if that ludicrous policy came in 🙄

    @GameRiot Exactly, who doesn't have the internet in 2026, virgin Media internet went down and was fixed for me with in 4 hours. If you don't log on you don't lose your games, just need to sign back in to play.

    DT (@DanTaylor86) reported

    @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years but the customer service I've received today is extremely worrying. Everyone has been polite and tried to help, but still my package is all wrong. This needs rectifying immediately or your major competitor will be gaining new custom

  • red_bk13
    BK (@red_bk13) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia Terrible situation for that long. I'm looking at a voda offer at the mo for switching from virgin when my deal expires. They offer a router with 4g back up. It's weather your can get decent speeds where you are that matters.

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported

    @virginmedia ok... here is some feedback. Fire the person that has thought aquirering new customers is more important than keeping the ones you got and rewarding them. Secondly fire the person that is handeling disconnections. They singlehandely made me a never again costumer. You could not pay me to return

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported from Oxford, England

    @virginmedia @FuzziePieRat Yes.. And how ****** up is it that you treat your existing paying customers so badly they have to attempt to do these hacks to get what you are freely giving away to new customers?

  • AnIndividualist
    TheRealCraig (@AnIndividualist) reported

    If @virginmedia had good deals I would’ve considered re subscribing. But cancelling our old email addresses without notice because we cancelled has caused so much trouble I certain won’t now

  • DanAaronTaylor
    Daniel Taylor (@DanAaronTaylor) reported

    @virginmedia VM/O2 account locked for security reasons. Spoke with someone on chat who requested it be unlocked within 5 days. This never happened. Called and asked again for my account to be unlocked. Again told this would be done. Hasn’t. Can this be escalated? I need access.

  • DWRICHARDS
    David Richards (@DWRICHARDS) reported

    @virginmedia if you fail to provide a promised refund and fail to deal with a complaint is there any hope that you might engage with me here?

  • jasoncainesmith
    Jason Caine Smith (@jasoncainesmith) reported

    @virginmedia and you can’t even recognise his account details or phone number so he’s sat there without tv!! Unacceptable service levels! I sincerely hope you’ll be refunding him some of the extortionate amount he pays you each month !
