    @Ofcom you need to take a serious look at @virginmedia their broadband and tv goes down for hours on a regular basis

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

    @virginmedia Yes.. After much back and forth to simply getting teh to acknowledge they had overcharged me for 2 months... But the issue is... You took my money incorrectly but the refund takes a 45 days. This is absolutely despicable. There is no reason for a delay like that

  • 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?

    @virginmedia Your network went down at about 3pm in the middle of a mtg not back up yet ?

    Bex Allen (@travellingbex) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    4yrs with @virginmedia never had a problem. But now that I do their 'customer service' sucks, endless cycles of talking to bots on their website, or being on hold for hours on the phone! 3 days of this just trying to get the Internet I'm paying for! #frustrated #virginmedia

    @virginmedia It’s been over a month since I sent an online complaint form (as advised by this account) and have heard nothing back since and it has been 4 months since the original issue (not to mention the 13 calls to customer service). When can I expect to hear back on my complaint?

  • mickthenorth
    Michael North (@mickthenorth) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t tried again as it would be my 4th attempt & I’m a very busy person. I’d appreciate any help or advice.

    @virginmedia @Virgin just been treated like a thick criminal by your customer service team, all because your website has locked me out and won't let me re-register. You should be ashamed.

    Virgin Media. An astonishingly **** company, even by the standards of the UK telecoms industry. You are an absolutely ******* appalling company. You utter ******* disgrace.

    @vdaybabygirl85 @rayquannnnnnn @virginmedia Keeps dropping out? Which VM Hub do you have? I've just got upgraded free from the hub 3 to hub 5 and so far haven't had any drop outs. Give the customer services a call and ask for an engineer (free) and when they come, it's ifs the hub 3, they'll change it for free.

    @virginmedia I am trying to resolve a billing a dispute which has been paid over month ago but is still showing as unpaid on your systems impacting credit scores and everything that goes along with that. No one can help me get this cleared. Missing payments dont respond to emails

    @Alexarmstrong @GBNEWS Major UK mobile network operators like Vodafone, Virgin Media O2,Tesco Mobile don't make direct cash donations to refugee charities, but instead donate technological equipment, free data, connectivity packages directly to refugees & asylum seekers through partnerships.

    Evri have got to rate alongside Virgin Media as Bloody a awful excuse for a business!

  • MrSonicAdvance
    Sonic (@MrSonicAdvance) reported

    @virginmedia What I found frustrating, was that if I trimmed features from my package, the monthly price would go up, and if I added additional features the monthly price would go down. Utterly perverse! The whole process left me frustrated and bemused. Lovely people on your team, though. 👍

    @Ewan_Huzami @downdetector Down in East Surrey since yesterday too. Virgin Media app says service won't be restored until 11th August. Luckily I'm out of contract so I'm switching to Starlink

    @andyburnham You might like to add VIRGINMEDIA to your list of organisations that do everything they can to prevent customers ending contracts. They are THE WORST.
