    @virginmedia Basically on 500mb package but getting below half of that speed. Tv service poor as on demand constantly drops out, ave twice during a film.

    @Virginmedia How does a customer get any service? We have been calling and writing since 30th October but are just on HOLD!

    @virginmedia Hi, have done that, found a blackspot but won't let me order, refers to online bot chat that cannot help either. Can't get through via phone

    @virginmedia I’ve spent the last 3 hours trying to communicate with someone via text about some charges that are due to virgin not setting a cap on my 11 year old step daughters account as requested! Service is awful

  • ChrisLonelyguy
    Christopher Hallick (@ChrisLonelyguy) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Come on @virginmedia I'm again being plagued by #fake #scam #fraud calls on landline. I'm not registered anywhere and on blocked lists. There's auto diallers i believe but operators should be cracking down on this.

    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

    Gary Cross (@garycross) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia why advertise your call centre being open til 8PM if you're hanging up on me at 19:10? Having issues with my TV and your online tools aren't doing anything.

  • DazCarson68
    Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hard to cancel when SMS, text and phone never answered

    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!

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I've been trying to resolve a BB speed, patchy t.v. services issue for several weeks and am getting passed from dept to dept, unfortunately customer service isn't great tbh

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia So would this solve the t.v. issues?

  • Deepal29
    Deepal Vyas (@Deepal29) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia we have another date for installation for tomorrow I went via the app and had your customer service team calling as the offer wouldn’t go through. Fingers crossed we getting tomorrow or it will be another day off wasted.

  • michaeltruefitt
    Michael Truefitt (@michaeltruefitt) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia Are you planning on giving all your customers a discount for your constant broadband issues and not delivering what people are paying for? I see it was fixed earlier but it’s gone down once again in the last hour. It seems to be a daily occurrence now.

  • Super_Sonic2010
    Sonia Mathieson (@Super_Sonic2010) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I have no doubt you'll be on it. Been quite some time now. Just wondered if there was an end to issues in sight.

    @virginmedia are you ever gonna help me!!

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I understand that takes 28 days which will be 3 months with sub standard service, not exactly a quick resolution

  • 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

    @virginmedia virgin media your customer support for broadband billing is such a pain to deal with. Shame on you.

  • rjcook15
    Rebecca Cook 🇬🇧 (@rjcook15) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I feel your pain - I’m having trouble with @BritishGasHelp who have even sent an apology addressed to my deceased mother and the man I spoke to couldn’t understand why I was so upset and that it had taken me 10 days to ring and try and explain

  • tybilly1

    Santander bank has got has bad as Virgin Media for customer service, so it's the end for you & me as the great Jillted John sang.😤

  • Adam83492464721
    Adam (@Adam83492464721) reported

    @Nasher6328 @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Nah **** that. If I need to go through the song and dance anyway I may as well switch and get whatever freebies they throw to new customers. It’s just a stupid system that doesn’t reward loyalty and means we all have to waste our time every 2 years.

  • Antty629802
    Antty (@Antty629802) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia That's awful. Whenever you leave they always try and squeeze a bit more cash out. Disgraceful

  • SpiritofEverton
    Spirit of the Blues 💙 (@SpiritofEverton) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Don't call their usual number, you just get the outsourced Indian team who can't understand you and can't help you. Call the real retentions team directly on 020 3743 6950 - save it to your contacts and use it at the end of every contract

  • radavies_art
    Richard Davies FRSA (@radavies_art) reported

    Dear @virginmedia I’ve had no TV signal for almost a month. When I contacted you, I was twice left on hold for over an hour; when I finally spoke to someone, I was assured reception would be restored within 24hrs, that was two weeks ago!

  • RobHolroyd
    Rob Holroyd (@RobHolroyd) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia We're having the same problem, been a year now, my dad is having to pay bills manually and incurring additional charges as they won't recognise his wife has died after countless emails and calls. It's disgusting.

    @virginmedia what’s going on on with my internet please? Been down all morning. Managed to get through to a human at 07:45 was told outage in my area but it was being worked on & would be back in about an hour. It’s still down & can’t get through to anyone for an update
