  • beckylucydell Becky Dell (@beckylucydell) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia your service is a joke. Just taken me 32 minutes to change my bank details on the phone. Call centre staff should be able to speak the same language as your customers to a standard high enough to be able to do the job. Such a waste of time 😩😩😩

  • watchvideosoul Nezih Savaşkan (@watchvideosoul) reported from Lambeth, England

    @DDavidian @virginmedia Upload is advertised. About 20meg. But had a few issues recently where download has randomly dropped from around 180-200 down to under 15.

  • yiddo71 Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia you have the worst mobile customer service in the world absolute disgrace #ripoff #con #virginmedia #virginmobileuk

  • Freddie_Owusu77 Freddie AFC Owusu (@Freddie_Owusu77) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp @VMDotCom Virgin are liars and thieves they misinformed me, stole my money then after 20min waiting to get through to customer service they drop the phone on you. Do not go to virgin they are horrible

  • georgiamumbles Georgia Mumby (@georgiamumbles) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia That leads me to just our conversation history. I’ve done all the hub checks according to your website and it’s still not working

  • rosecherished Rose Cooney (@rosecherished) reported from Bromley, England

    @NOWTV So cos @virginmedia had problems and I could only watch this via app last weekend, I restarted my @NOWTV entertainment sub just to binge watch on Sunday

  • onemistert Mr T (@onemistert) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia We have engineer visit today so hopefully they can resolve. However it is vertically impossible to get to speak to one of your agents. That is really not good customer service. I tried to have the online chat on a weekday btw sonshould have been available after 6

  • georgiamumbles Georgia Mumby (@georgiamumbles) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia hey my WiFi is down and I’ve been trying to get through to somebody in your call centre for ages - I was on hold until way after closing time and your message feature doesn’t work 😞 HEEEELLLPPPP!!!!

  • BethanyWant Bethany want (@BethanyWant) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It is only effecting one room in the house. On all devices. I have checked my area and there are no known issues

  • pinski1_ The Fallen (@pinski1_) reported from Sevenoaks, England

    @bohblesku @Worlds6440 @virginmedia @HSBC_UK TBH as awful as they are, they've always been tolerable for me. But once @monzo sort out credit cards, I'll be off like a shot!

  • KeithBursnall Keith Bursnall (@KeithBursnall) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia According to your website broadband connectivity is fine and TV is experiencing some issues with certain channels. I have no broadband and no channels at all

  • agrayphoto Adam Gray (@agrayphoto) reported from Croydon, England

    The @virginmedia customer service can’t understand one simple request and problem, passing my housemate between pillar and post for hours on the phone and making broken promises. Seriously useless. Oh and the internet speed has been crap and not as advertised for months - avoid

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @CantSwingACat @bt_uk You should try Virgin Media! Don't forget you're entitled to Ofcom compensation if the has been a total loss of service for over 24 hrs I.e If their Infrastructure is at fault #poorcustomerservice

  • BethanyWant Bethany want (@BethanyWant) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It keeps going down on all devices now.

  • FelicityJBee Felicity Bainbridge (@FelicityJBee) reported from Poplar, England

    Disgraceful customer service by @virginmedia - 15 min wait to discuss £20 increase in bill with no comms. RUDE staff ‘I don’t care if you want to leave’, immediate transfer and 15 more mins of music... APPALLED. #CustomerService #fail

  • flowergirl_lon Flower Girl London (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @Leearna6 @suz_rudnik @virginmedia Ofcom compensation is £8 a day for loss of service but they don’t pay it until service is back on... defo chase it up as it’s the law now not just a customer service / good will gesture. As soon as you are reconnected it should be applied to next bill.

  • LSandersonbooks Lesley Sanderson (@LSandersonbooks) reported from Islington, England

    @leepg @virginmedia I have this same problem @virginmedia rebooting doesn't solve the problem

  • Louisblack Louis Houghton (@Louisblack) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia It just seems odd that Virgin seem happier losing an existing customer than just giving them the same deal as a new customer. Instead of £35 a month they get nothing.

  • sophie_9_ Sophie (@sophie_9_) reported from Crayford, England

    @Sitdown_Jim @GilesyL14 @O2 @virginmedia EE was awful today aswell

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Spoke to your woeful customer on Friday about how much compensation I was going to receive for my outage,I was assured I would get a call back, still waiting!!! #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • GhostCalledBob Bob (@GhostCalledBob) reported

    Hey @virginmedia every time the red button football coverage doesn't work on your service, I let the tyres down on one of your vans, there are loads bear me. (I don't, but I don't imagine the chatbot has a setting for this).

  • Matt9379 Ian Matthews (@Matt9379) reported

    @virginmedia Will it be sorted then. Same problem everytime red button games are on!

  • MattyCarter1984 Matt Carter (@MattyCarter1984) reported

    @pagey_87 @virginmedia Never does mate - that’s why I binned em off! Shite!!

  • LukeEnEss Luke. (@LukeEnEss) reported

    @past_sunderland @virginmedia Same here in Preston. Its abysmal. Never getting VM again, thank god I'm moving soon.

  • JuniperJones69 Juniper (@JuniperJones69) reported

    Why do @virginmedia need customers to tell them the red button doesn't work to show championship matches? Don't they check their own systems?

  • Andy_Long97 Andy Long (@Andy_Long97) reported

    @virginmedia I press the red button, it flashes on and off and gives no options to choose a game to watch. Seems to be a national problem.

  • clydon11 Katie (@clydon11) reported

    @virginmedia got a V6 box. SR2. Sky sports red button not working (again) absolute joke

  • padgers82 Dave Pagett (@padgers82) reported

    @virginmedia shock horror, the red button isn’t working again. This appears to be nationwide - how can you continue to charge for a service which is never working ??

  • corrigill tom corrigill (@corrigill) reported

    Cancelling @virginmedia service tomorrow. Red button not working again. Absolute disgrace.

  • JoshSafc22 Josh Sloan (@JoshSafc22) reported

    @virginmedia @past_sunderland No matches are working, nothing comes up, everyone's having the same issue
