  • DarrenMoggie66 Darren (@DarrenMoggie66) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia how can you put my bill up yet new customers can have the same for £30.00 cheaper ,20 years a valued customer but no incentives to renew my contract

  • tgomez7 gomez (@tgomez7) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to cancel my account for over a week now. 5 calls made and still nobody has been able to help me. This is an absolute joke!! Please tell me how I can do this in writing?

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia The text messaging team that says it aims to respond within 4 hours but hasn’t responded to me since 11am yesterday? Basically I have no option now but to sit on hold in a queue for 30+ mins to fix a problem you’ve created by not upgrading me. Your customer service is awful.

  • XCharlotteJadeX CharlotteJadeDuffy❀ (@XCharlotteJadeX) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia please can someone help me cancel my contract, I move house in a few weeks and have been trying to get through to you many different ways with no luck for over a month now, I need to sort this ASAP, thanks

  • JiriKPinnock J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England

    @immihepburn @virginmedia I few for you, same happened to me as well. After 40 mins on the phone , charging me £8 to call customer number, their staff put the phone down on me . TERRIBLE SERVICE

  • JiriKPinnock J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia So me as a customer who don’t know this information, and searches your customer number after you don’t provide your services, been kept 40mins on phone line and then get phone put down from your staff. Brilliant!!!

  • tonyj01 Tony Jacobs (@tonyj01) reported from Manchester, England

    @DawnBly68 @MartinSLewis @virginmedia They make more money with their present commercial stance - loyalty is NOT valued, the new customer is king. So become a new customer.

  • lynielou72 Lyne (@lynielou72) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia No these error has been for weeks, they bought a new TV today because they thought that was the problem it isn't and we can't speak to a human being.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I get the same result hard wired with Ethernet too. It’s not a wifi issue. Also I’m not sure how wifi would decide to ignore an increase in speed and decide to limit itself to the old speed coincidentally. Someone on your end hasn’t enabled the faster speed to my property.

  • JiriKPinnock J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia That’s different scenario on my bill, why I’m charged to call your Customer Service line

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Need to cancel my @virginmedia contract as the price is going up but the only way to cancel is by phone, with up to an hour queue time. Brilliant.

  • SarahCassidy Sarah Cassidy 🐝 (@SarahCassidy) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone else who gave their details to track and trace suddenly being spammed with fake email accounts, and bombarded with phone calls from fake VirginMedia/BT claiming broadband speeds are up and down?

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hey @virginmedia , can we arrange you to call people back rather than sitting in a queue listening to terrible music and running up mobile bill costs?

  • HellsbellsO Helen Walsh-ONeill (@HellsbellsO) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia hi are tv and phone line are not working can you help WA8 8BS

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England

    @virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

  • steveeades Steve Eades (@steveeades) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia Carried out the tests and internet now working but seems slow. Also there is an error noted on the Samsung set top box?

  • blandsteve Steve Bland (@blandsteve) reported from Knutsford, England

    @virginmedia Yes. No issues identified.

  • JiriKPinnock J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Trying to get some help, on the phone over 30mins. My new bill was overcharged, pls fix it ASAP.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Nearly a week after signing up to a new contract with @virginmedia they’ve still not upgraded my speed to what we agreed to. Their Twitter support refuses to acknowledge the issue and my complaint hasn’t been picked up yet. I guess they don’t care once a contract is agreed.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia There’s no known issues. I shouldn’t have to spend 30 mins on hold trying to get through to you to have an issue corrected that hasn’t been done as part of my contract agreement. Shouldn’t you be able to call customers when you have an agent free who can make outgoing calls?

  • JohnBrannen55 John Brannen (@JohnBrannen55) reported

    @virginmedia my 93yr old Mothers phone line was out of action for 12days. It came back on Tuesday only to go off again today. Text says fault is fixed but she has no connection. Her emergency alarm System is linked to her line leaving her very vulnerable. Sick of calling virgin

  • Origiiiiii Ant B (@Origiiiiii) reported

    @virginmedia your broadband is awful. Horrendous at the best of times but it’s been down for 2 days. I’ve now received 9 emails telling me the issue is resolved (it hasn’t been) the only difference is I can no longer register loss of service.

  • Poles72 MartyFGC (@Poles72) reported

    @virginmedia service gets worse rather than better
