    @virginmedia Sorry no, left you years ago - never again, you we’re far better when you were NTL

  • El_Lloydie Gareth Lloyd 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧 (@El_Lloydie) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Had enough. @virginmedia service in the past 18 months been truly shocking. Made a complaint last month and still not heard anything. Now trying to get hold of someone and doing the Krypton Factor would be easier! Sort yours (and my) s**t out Virgin Media!

  • AshArmstrong9 Ash Armstrong (@AshArmstrong9) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Seems OK now. It was Prime Video that was the problem. I think they couldn't handle all the football live streaming very well, and something had to give. Thanks 👍

  • thecornstar Andy Corney (@thecornstar) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @BicramAthwal @virginmedia Awful company, truly abysmal customer service.

  • faizalmom Faizal Momoniat (@faizalmom) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia my advice to all virgin media customers who is reading this don’t trust what the say all bullshit am ringing every day they never ring

  • Deborahbham Deborah Davidson 🕷 (@Deborahbham) reported from Leicestershire, England

    1. @richardbranson cannot tell you how incensed I am at the poor service I have had since signing up to @virginmedia - no one can help me sort out getting a good and consistent internet signal across the whole house (which @bt_uk could) - amazed how the new technology is worse.

  • JLewisRUK Jamie Lewis Rennie (@JLewisRUK) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @JoshTWheeler @virginmedia Virgin Media are shit! They are the worst people ever! I’ve got @SkyUK, their good x

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried but can never get through on the phone. Done a few web chats though

  • faizalmom Faizal Momoniat (@faizalmom) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia How can you cancel my contract whilst i am living in the house and take word from a stranger over the phone surely you have broken GDPR

  • AshArmstrong9 Ash Armstrong (@AshArmstrong9) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @Aarrontongue1 @primevideosport No. Virgin Media. Not had any issues like this before. Fortunately I'll be at the Leicester v Liverpool game tonight so I won't need to put up with pixelation/buffering. Stupid time for a Boxing Day game though!

  • adamkemp24 Adam Kemp (@adamkemp24) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @bennmarkpotter @virginmedia Getting a issue of only 2mbps when I’m paying for 200mbps. It’s a joke. I’m gonna move to sky they guarantee 60mbps or your money back. U should do the same 👍

  • adamkemp24 Adam Kemp (@adamkemp24) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Nearly 2 hours on the phone to #virginmedia no1 wants to help. Getting 2mbps for a 200mbps plan. If I paid 1% of the bill am sure they’d find a issue then! #useless

  • SteveRiches4 Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia router not working, of course not your equipment has to be mine. Why have to wait 48 hours to phone again if still not working. It’s arrogant to think we know nothing about IT.

  • corfu1957 Paul Roberts (@corfu1957) reported from Leicestershire, England

    50 mins talking to an engineer who then couldn't connect the new box and now have to have an engineer come out to sort it @virginmedia you need to get your customer service sorted

  • itslakeyyy Kieran Lake (@itslakeyyy) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia No issues reported. A reboot of the hub seems to do the trick however it’s an inconvenience doing that 4-5 times a day.

  • alisonllove1 Alison Love (@alisonllove1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonrim @virginmedia I had good service chatting via Twitter but elsewhere absolutley useless

  • corfu1957 Paul Roberts (@corfu1957) reported from Leicestershire, England

    So now I am on the phone to the help line and the waiting starts and as usual virgin media fail again

  • LuetchfordClare clare luetchford (@LuetchfordClare) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia could you explain to me why over 20 years of being a customer of yours counts for nothing you’d rather lose a loyal customer

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia The usual, turn off and turn on again. No solution to the phone line not working though

  • faizalmom Faizal Momoniat (@faizalmom) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia because of virgin media disconnecting us from broadband am missing out all on demand catch up tv on my sky q box and another thing is am paying for all that so money down the drain.

  • greenpoet100 Azaad (@greenpoet100) reported

  • vikkiLCmoore vikki moore (@vikkiLCmoore) reported

    @virginmedia currently dealing with one of the worst customer service situations I have ever been in, 9 months of constant problems advisors are clearly not trained to do there jobs. Was with sky for 25 years before changing to virgin media what a joke

  • SundaeLolz ȿundªɛ 🏳️‍🌈 (@SundaeLolz) reported

    @virginmedia The call back was about a change to package deal following a death. The bereavement team passed me over to the customer service department and the CSR I spoke with promised to call me back after speaking with a manager. That was at about 9.30am this morning.

  • chandjethwa Chand Jethwa (@chandjethwa) reported

    @virginmedia Latest status unknown, last discussed 16/05/22, advised complaint will be looked into but don’t know when. Complaint logged 28/04/22 after numerous failing to log previously. Advised manager would call back in a hour or two, its well over 24 hours and not heard a word!

  • tweraksa Tom (@tweraksa) reported

    @virginmedia has the worst possible customer service/pre-install team I've ever dealt with. No one knows what's happening with my installation, absolutely disgraceful.

  • inolan1981 Ian Nolan (@inolan1981) reported

    @virginmedia Network tests show it’s okay but for a minute or so a couple of times a day it totally drops out.

  • JenG1210 𝙹𝚎𝚗 (@JenG1210) reported

    @virginmedia They've arranged it now, but it really didn't have to take 90 minutes for something which should be straightforward. Also all of the info that your chat bot asks for had to be repeated. Not great service, especially when I work for a telco company myself so know what to expect

  • JamesPalGA James (@JamesPalGA) reported

    @virginmedia No, it's the router. I just reboot and it comes back online. Local service is fine. Think I have a stinker of a router. Is there a way to get it replaced?

  • Marc_Burrows Marc Burrows (@Marc_Burrows) reported

    @virginmedia I have it written down on a piece of paper and distinctly remember asking in the phone call if everything was for the 18 months, so you can go through the recorded phone call if need be. I was at least never told it was for anything less than 18 months (either 6 or 12).

  • CJ0000013 CC (@CJ0000013) reported

    @virginmedia been waiting longer than 48 hours for a manager call back, initially was told 24 hours but then I had to chase up and was then told its 48 hours which even that has passed! Shocking customer service!!
