    @virginmedia Still not had the courtesy of a phone call 30 days after making 2 complaints. I would NEVER EVER recommend @virginmedia @libertyglobal. I had a box fitted to my house without my permission & hadn’t ordered

    . @virginmedia morning. Internet has just gone down on Mirfield Road in Witney. Do you have any news as to why? We did not have any notification.

    @virginmedia You apologize??? Really??? In the middle of a pandemic , I am a key worker and had to work from home today band I have missed all the meetings. I wish I could cancel my contract and had nothing to do with Virgin ever again!

    Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia 1hour waiting the first time and disconnected. This is the second time, still on the phone and waiting 55min. It is pretty much the whole day wasted trying to talk to customer services. Can you please help?

    @virginmedia No difference with hub factory reset as a router with other router switched off. Green internet light flashing on the hub. Message Problem connecting to the internet on 192.168.1.1.

    @virginmedia It says no known issues but there plainly are as we have no internet

  • Melyclassy
    Melisa Soto (@Melyclassy) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia thank you for being an example of how bad customer service works! It took me 4 months to get on hold of you to cancel my service #NeverAgain

  • 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

  • travellingbex
    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

  • chrisdaleoxford
    Chris Dale (@chrisdaleoxford) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness @virginmedia A major fault apparently. They claim to be “working hard” to fix it. Shambles

  • Brimson1
    David Brimson (@Brimson1) reported from Yarnton, England

    @virginmedia TV froze during Netflix. Apparently all services are down. TV, home phone and Broadband. Please check phone connection on our home phone. Only my mobile connection with 4g works. Are you able to update which areas are down? We are OX5 area.

  • johndoran21
    John P J D (@johndoran21) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia tried logging on to my isa account, asking me for authentication code, request it, no txt coming thru, ring the 20 mins then told there shutting, & will ring back tomos. They Admit there’s a prob, OUT IT ON YOUR WEB THEN, don’t have thousands ringing up 💩service!

    @LaurakBuzz @virginmedia They can slow down your service in busy times. Dodgy. It’s in the contract though

    Virgin Media down in at least part of central Headington. Engineer on his way, apparently

    Tom Quante (@TomQuante) reported

    @virginmedia You won't answer your phone (apparently this is a tactic you use..?) and I am not paying my increased bill. Cancelled my DD with you so I will let you chase me instead. Your customer service is still terrible

  • KarlDyer15
    Karl Dyer (@KarlDyer15) reported

    To work for @virginmedia you don’t need a brain cell, maybe the worst company in the UK I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Avoid them at all costs

  • StephenOld
    Stephen Old #FBPE (@StephenOld) reported

    @virginmedia Do something about your useless Customer Service. You used to have shops and phone lines so that I could taslkd to a real person. Your automated systems have always been uselss and now you want me to send you an audio or a video message, neither of which works.

  • SamanthaJane_H
    Sam Sheehan (@SamanthaJane_H) reported

    @virginmedia I have messaged. I have taken days off on multiple occasions to wait in for engineers to attend. I was assured that due to external works I would not need to be in today, however the issue STILL has not been fixed despite assurances it would be sorted.

  • AntimagicBones
    Anthaily (@AntimagicBones) reported

    "Hey, the wi-fi is down?" "Uhhh... oh, yeah; Sara said something about turning our Virgin Media into problematic media." "Oh, God."

  • eternalelneny
    Eternal Elneny (@eternalelneny) reported

    @virginmedia With all due respect, the engineers have been there all day, I saw two of them having a 40 minute lunch break at 10am at Greggs. Can you push these engineers to get this completed today? Compensation isn’t a valid response to not being able to work - ridiculous service

  • kateandhergirls
    Kate and her girls (@kateandhergirls) reported

    @virginmedia Your chat colleague already looked into it and was incredibly rude and basically said tough you’re an existing customer on a contract and we don’t help our loyal customers, just new ones 🙄

  • Gagabids
    Clare B (@Gagabids) reported

    We've had no Prime for 3 days, what is the issue? @virginmedia

  • wfc2000uk
    pat (@wfc2000uk) reported

    @LutzSchueler @virginmedia of urgency, it’s happened quite a few times over last few years, I been a customer for 20 years now. Your customer service said need to £700, cancellation fee. Which I’m not willing to pay. I look forward to your reply.

  • Nokkapie
    Paul Tee (@Nokkapie) reported

    Yes @virginmedia I love being charged more than the contract I agreed! I also love being ignored when making a formal complaint. Defo won be renewing another contract. Awful behaviour from a business ive used for 20 years!
