    @virginmedia I still can't believe you all let your staff get away with the way they treat customers especially lying on the notes too make customers pay the cancellation fee.. Thats some scummy tack tick!

  • AViTSCJ Scott Jackson (@AViTSCJ) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia why is it when you request cancellation of service via phone and getting cut off mid call , then sending and email and also trying to chase via web chat which I also sent my request for cancellation and then move out two months later . They keep the account open 🤬

  • Ridhima88 Ridhima Tomar (@Ridhima88) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia your customer service agents who we spoke to are also unprofessional. They hung up on us! I’m definitely pursuing this in consumer forum, amount of harassment we have been out through today is unacceptable @CountyCourts

  • _jessgamble Jess Gamble (@_jessgamble) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia the service has dropped a few more times since this morning but is currently back on. it has now dropped over 5 times today, and it takes over 15 mins to be connected again

  • eatcheeselouise MarshmallowMedia (@eatcheeselouise) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia This has been escalated for 5 months now. Your escalation team dealing with emergencies doing nothing. Can anyone else help on this matter ?

  • Jamesmeredith James Meredith (@Jamesmeredith) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia #internet So glad I left Virgin a year ago. I have much better speeds at half the price. Virgin are expensive and customer service the worst I have ever experienced.

  • Moonchester999 our kid (@Moonchester999) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks Virgin had my phone stolen on Tuesday called you to cancel the sim you promised to send me another one but you never did. Thanks 🙏 for making a stressful situation even worse

  • RogerHighfield Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia l have lost the internet - any issues in Greenwich/area 21/SE10 and, if so, when can l get my life back!?

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is down in the London SE7 area yet again - that's the 3rd time this month. What's the 'engineering fault' this time, eh? Is it incompetance, apathy or a combination of the two? When will my service be resumed???

  • skip_0889 Jay (@skip_0889) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia your service is so appalling I’d like to know how I can leave without being harassed for charges please. We manually paid a bill and cancelled a direct debit to change bank details and you have messed up so badly I’m done. #fail

  • GemMatthews Gemma Matthews (@GemMatthews) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks…what about some kind of compensation for poor service? How do I claim for this?

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on??? I don’t have any internet since morning? And it’s affecting my mobile phone in the house!! I had to leave the house to use mobile network to work! Rubbish service! That’s the problem when 2 service providers - O2 & VM joins force! #virginmediadown

  • ShahinA82783043 Shahin Ali (@ShahinA82783043) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Constant connection issues, I have had issues with it for 2-3 months and have still been paying for something that does not work properly. on top of that you guys write lies on my notes that was read out to me by the cancellation department team member.. 👎 scamming customers

  • SCcrowther Simon Crowther (@SCcrowther) reported from Camden Town, England

    @plonkymiff @virginmedia I had the same issue and they were just as ridiculous

  • MZRAJIB M&R (@MZRAJIB) reported from Poplar, England

  • charlieegan3 Charlie Egan (@charlieegan3) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hey, would you be able to get someone from Virgin Media Field Complaints “FieldComplaintsTeam2” to get back to me about my complaint C-16082156 tomorrow?

  • superpaddiepads The Misadventures of Stevie P (@superpaddiepads) reported from Bromley, England

    @bywarner @Jenn7_4 @virginmedia Their customer service has always been appalling. Hence why I’ll never use them for anything again.

  • GemMatthews Gemma Matthews (@GemMatthews) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Seriously? This is appalling- so I’ve had to pay to travel to work today because you didn’t provide the service I am paying a small fortune for. And there is no compensation?! Seems a very one sided arrangement

  • GemMatthews Gemma Matthews (@GemMatthews) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for clarifying. Anyway I’ve now been without broadband and landline since 8.30am, back from unplanned trip to office for their wifi to find that service is not going to be fixed until 9am tomorrow! This is the second time in a month I’ve been without service all Friday. 😫

  • ShahinA82783043 Shahin Ali (@ShahinA82783043) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia the customer service at virgin media is below 0 star they treat there customers like crap and lie. I have a recording of the agent I spoke to and she put a bunch of lies on her notes and transferred me to there cancellation team. Terrible service!! Rubbish connection

  • SianIsbell Sian Isbell (@SianIsbell) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been waiting for a refund of over £160 for 3 weeks now. Was initially told it would take a week. I’ve had to borrow the money to cover Xmas. Rang yesterday to be told the cheque hadn’t even been issued yet! Terrible customer service

  • shoottheducks Tim (@shoottheducks) reported

    @mattjmiller15 @virginmedia @CharlesB2T I'm also in Burgess Hill, same problem, same stonewalling from virgin. Goes down daily at the best of times, really appalling service.
