Ranjan Mallya (@RanjanMallya) reported from Croydon, EnglandThis is what I get for being a customer for over 8 continuous years and then 5 years before that. This is awful customer service by Virgin media. #Virginmedia @virginmedia

Carol Dover (@CarolB29041964) reported from Stifford, EnglandJust how **** are Virgin Media...my email was down for two evenings and probably the days as well earlier in the week, and now it's down again. Virgin Media i need to access my emails....this level of service is unacceptable. I'm paying for this crap service! @virginmedia
-
Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???
-
#TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia I've covered all the options; there aren't many. It tells me there are no problems in my area and then defaults to the bot chat.
-
Nigel Ellway (@Nigelellway) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?
-
Joseph Sweeney (@JosephS65112253) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandVirgin media Im going into my 5 week of no service with virgin media all they do is say we will investigate and nothing really poor service
-
A voice only (@Avoiceonly2) reported from Blackheath, England@Marcroy_Smith @virginmedia Same here and customer service not available either
-
Steven Peterson 🏳️🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England@virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?
-
anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia My husband has called because he is the account holder and has a Virgin phone. Virgin apparently will call tonight/tomorrow morning. However, my feeling now is that your service will work for a time and then will go bad, there is a pattern.
-
Mr Wookie aka Cliff (@DogAteMyWookie) reported from Croydon, EnglandHey @virginmedia when are people in the CR0 postcode going to get their Internet back? It's been down since lunch? Any ETA? Need to plan if I need to go to the office tomorrow instead.
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I performed the reset, it still does not recognise the code. Very disappointed. On Wednesday I wasted 3 hours on the phone talking to 13 of your people one of whom brazenly told me to fix all issues I must buy an upgrade. I am sorry to say the whole experience is abysmal 💔
-
Janet E Baldwin 🌸 (@JanetEBaldwin) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@_andy_pandy_ @virginmedia Outrageous 😱 I’d cancel my subscription.
-
A voice only (@Avoiceonly2) reported from Blackheath, England@virginmedia @Jaym7t5 My system is down since about 4pm
-
travelling Adam (@TravellingAdam) reported from Blackheath, EnglandVirgin why do I keep losing my mobile network? @virginmedia (been trying to post this since 11am lol) as I have virgin broadband as well. 😤
-
Khaled Miah (@Khaled_Miah1) reported from Poplar, England@virginmedia very disappointed with the upgrade package in being offered by Virgin. You are offering a loyal customer to upgrade to Gig1 for £51.15 whereas new customers get it for £45 p/m. Where is the loyalty?
-
Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England@virginmedia No effort is made to rectify the problem they just want to change to VOIP with no regard to a customer who spends over £1200 a bear for all devices, I wonder what offcom would think
-
Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England@virginmedia But cutting people off to enforce this is unethical, besides no previous communication has indicated this and the solution is not convenient with where they want to do this and no suggestion to reposition my hub
-
Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia An explanation of the problem and what is being done would be a good start for customer service. Right now that’s sadly lacking. I hope there will be a £ reduction in the bill for the lack of service??
-
Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England@virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported@virginmedia If you check the DMs I’ve sent you 42 messages in the last 16 days. You have replied to lots of them. But you have never been able to tell me why the fix is taking so long, whether/when any engineering staff have actually turned up to look at our cabling, or when it will be fixed

-
David James Pearce (@pearceswan) reported@MariaSale8 @virginmedia I think you should carry your responses at this sound quite rude. I was advised I have an engineer booked for tomorrow between 4 pm and 7 pm. Please confirm I’m disabled and housebound and on Oxygen.

-
DaZzA (@aLpHaDaZzA) reported@ArtTed___4 You are obviously not a @virginmedia customer then!
-
Ian Perry (@ian_perry) reported@virginmedia - so, you apply an update to fix Sky Sports but trying to watch any box recordings now leads to stuttering and freezing. Look up comedian Norman Collier. It's like that! What on earth do we pay our bills for? Well, it isn't customer services is it?
