  • gavincrowe MrNiceGuy (@gavincrowe) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia your broadband and TV packages are far too expensive for the services received. Yet AGAIN my HBB has gone down is as many days weeks and months. Reliability is terrible and I'm paying £121 and have just been told your putting it up AGAIN in September. Total Joke!

  • ashleyYNWA ashley bennett (@ashleyYNWA) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I was told to message my complaint on here

  • SimonStaskiewi3 Simon Staskiewicz (@SimonStaskiewi3) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Totally down

  • nickgoodjohn Nick Goodjohn (@nickgoodjohn) reported from Corby, England

    @papajdog_ @bt_uk @virginmedia BT were the worst when we were with them, haven’t had an issue with Virgin so far though

  • ManLikeJr GOD (@ManLikeJr) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I beg you lot fix your stupid internet every 5 minutes it’s cutting off

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Faulty installation. Incorrect signal noise which seems permanently unstable. Oh and your hub seems to overheat. Formal complaint finally able to be raised.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Finally yes...only took days to be able to do. Doesn’t fix my internet, pay for my lost work or compensate for the many hours lost, the inability to watch the Champions League Final and Indy 500.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Sat waiting for my third visit from a Virgin Media engineer. Hasn’t turned up. Because this is a high level complaint I was supposed to be priority. Also was supposed to have a phone call from a manager today. Also didn’t happen. 😡

  • 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

  • cookwithanisa Anisa (@cookwithanisa) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Thanks but I did option 4 "make changes" then next was only 4 options. 4th option was "thinking of leaving" which I selected, but lines are very busy apparently. It would have been nice for the person dealing with my complaint to give me a direct number to resolve quickly.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Just do you know. Gone to @Plusnet Cheaper and their customer service from first hand experience before makes yours look amateur.

  • CharlesinRome Charles Collins (@CharlesinRome) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia The website says it's fine. When I called later, though, it said they were working on a problem and would text an update. That was 12 hours ago

  • GautamKarelia Gautam Karelia (@GautamKarelia) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Can you give me the number to cancel my account with Virgin, have tried 4 times to get the updated contract with agreed price

  • 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

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

    @McGiff @virginmedia Omg I have the same problem absolutley rubbish I need to look for a new provider x

  • 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.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Cancellation affected. Leaving you’re shoddy company on 3/8. A complete Waste of my time. How terribly disappointing that a company with your reputation and with whom I was a happy customer years ago has decended to this shambolic state.

    @virginmedia I would do if your team would actually answer the phone. I can’t even get through to blooming cancel!!! 😡😡😡😡

  • GRODSTER Hayley Garrod (@GRODSTER) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Why do Virgin Media have to choose today of all days to 'improve' our service and leave us without any broadband or TV for the next 'few' hours 🙈 It had better be fixed and up and running in time for the England match or I will not be happy!! #Lionesses #FIFAWWC #Eng #ENGUSA

  • TheManintheMid6 The Man in the Middle (@TheManintheMid6) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, I'm glad you're still happy to help. Therefore, can you address the issues I raised about a) the daily rebooting of the router and b) the ethernet cable?

  • JonGuinness Jon Guinness (@JonGuinness) reported

    @virginmedia None it says no known issues - has done since wednesday - which is a massive lie

  • stewie1973 Stew Eldridge (@stewie1973) reported

    I really shouldn’t he surprised by @virginmedia diabolical service! Just been held on a call for 25 minutes only to be cut off by one of their incompetent call centre operatives in the transfer process - it’s a real disgrace and disgusting!!

  • MissCharleneE Charlene (@MissCharleneE) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is appalling. My internet and phone isn’t working and I’ve been told I have to wait until Monday for someone to fix it. Really disappointed with the poor service

  • iamfemo Femi Aboluwarin (@iamfemo) reported

    @virginmedia Nevermind, after much stern words, I've had someone call me back when the line dropped and the service has been terminated as requested. Thanks.

  • Shandy_Andy75 Andy (@Shandy_Andy75) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks but they cannot help, it states this number is not for wi-fi issues

  • laurenmidsy lauren (@laurenmidsy) reported

    @virginmedia I’m at a loss as to what to do! I’ve had very poor connection and speeds for over a year now and you are STILL charging me full amount. I get texts almost weekly saying you know there is a problem outside and yet still nothing. I’m fed up of phoning.

  • Jlawireland Jeremy Law (@Jlawireland) reported

    @virginmedia Tried calling the number as you told me and as was in the letter. Maddening to then wait for ages on the phone only telling me to please go online.......you just didn’t want to take the complaint seriously....#poorcustomerservice

  • PlcFred Fred Server (@PlcFred) reported

    @virginmedia Dear Virgin Media, I am trying to cancel my account with you but the 150 number is permanently engaged 24 hours for days. No way to cancel online and the 035 number never answers. You've taken next month's money from my bank with no way of me stopping you. Contact me

  • evilninjaempire luna_s (@evilninjaempire) reported

    @virginmedia Shame it takes hours to get a response with texts, and it's a no go phoning during my working ours - is there any other way to cancel the account ?
