    @palewis1 Day 9 and still not resolved with constant message saying how hard they are working to fix it. Just zero #communication @virginmedia

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @TheParkView1 @vmbusiness They are dreadful. We have @virginmedia and regularly use service. And have to argue to get any compensation back 😡

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia The £5 was given as a result of my complaint. I don’t know why you kept harping on about intermittent service. I had NO SERVICE WHATSOEVER FOR 1 WHOLE WEEK!! Nothing, not a bean, no tv, no internet, so please stop saying intermittent service!!

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia And yes I rang on the fri pm as soon as it went down. I rang consistently the whole week

  • fionaduggan Fiona Duggan (@fionaduggan) reported from Worthing, England

    Please ask me about your Customer service today @virginmedia - go on. I dare you. #VirginMedia

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    Imagine my second @virginmedia complaint almost 4 weeks without a response also. Its almost like they don't want to deal with it

  • pigletspantry1 Piglets Pantry HQ (@pigletspantry1) reported from Littlehampton, England

    @virginmedia Did you read the last tweet. Every day for 6 days sometimes up to 5 times. You hang up and give false advice hence resorting to tweeting!

  • RobertClayo1984 Robert (@RobertClayo1984) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Apparently there is no notes which is a load of crap she was more interested in getting payment off me!! It’s be had no service for 5 weeks

  • IAmKaneHuxley Kane Huxley (@IAmKaneHuxley) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia terrible, unproffesional service! Spoke to 3 different people nobody dealing with our request. Wifi delayed by 2 weeks, refused to be passed to manager TWICE & lied too then to be told we have no order! No sense of professionalism/customer service. Never use them!

  • CrossMediaNet Allan Cross (@CrossMediaNet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It’s day six without service. I have been speaking to your call centres who simply tell me what they see on their screens. These are the same messages that I’m getting via text. When I call 150 each day I get the same message saying normal service should resume by 4pm.

  • pigletspantry1 Piglets Pantry HQ (@pigletspantry1) reported from Littlehampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes tried to speak to technical not available or hang up.

  • daftsidious Timothy Allen (@daftsidious) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia It might be worth putting out a tweet to tell everyone that scammers are currently trying and that you will never DM, because I totally fell for it before they asked the card deets, and I'm internet savvy. Someone else will get screwed because of that.

  • ichbintimo Timothy Allen (@ichbintimo) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia No known issues

  • fionaduggan Fiona Duggan (@fionaduggan) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Media. And No. It was just to highlight how shit Virgin have been. And why should I repeat myself. Read up.

  • daftsidious T.Allen (@daftsidious) reported from Worthing, England

    @Switchtobetter @virginmedia To be fair, CS I've never had a problem with and I have called and tweeted a LOT. I just want my internet to work when I expect it to.

  • CrossMediaNet Allan Cross (@CrossMediaNet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia no broadband or TV for five days. Recorded message on 150 says sorry for intermittent service. It's NO service. Can a human contact me please.

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    Received my @virginmedia bill which should have been amended and credited with compensation for my lack of service in August, to find I’ve been credited a measly £5!!! And that’s a month late! Absolute joke of a company and the worst customer service ever.

  • fionaduggan Fiona Duggan (@fionaduggan) reported from Worthing, England

    Dear @virginmedia #VirginMedia Your customer service abilities are proper shit. With love.

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia I’ve raised 2 complaints and had £5 as a goodwill gesture which is quite frankly insulting. The ofcom regulations states £8 per day for every working day after 48 hours of no service. By my calculations I should of had £24 off my bill. Fri to tues is 48 working hrs then tues-fri

  • PeterNooneComms Peter Noone (@PeterNooneComms) reported from Worthing, England

    Couldn't watch Eng v NZ game yesterday on @virginmedia because the ITV picture was appalling. Just switched on for the Wales v SA game exactly the same issue. Time to switch from this very expensive flaky service. #nothappy

    @daryiljohnson26 £120 a month on our streaming ****...😭 That's ontop of a £130 Virgin media bill as well... ******* sucks...😭😤

  • Hanpalmerx Hannah Palmer (@Hanpalmerx) reported

    @virginmedia hope I haven't just verbally abused one of your actual staff. Someone called claiming to be from virgin saying my details have been stolen but couldn't confirm any of my details with me sounded fishy so I called her some very bad words

  • alexmc4 Alex M-C (@alexmc4) reported

    @virginmedia 'upgraded' to 360 box 2 weeks ago, now can't watch catch up tv without switching box off and on again at least once a day. Called up 3 times and now waiting 72 hours for a call back. Terrible service and customer experience

  • kim_g85 Kimberley Gallacher (@kim_g85) reported

    @virginmedia has to be the worst company I’ve ever dealt with, trying to contact them and been cut off twice! #virginmedia

  • alexmc4 Alex M-C (@alexmc4) reported

    @virginmedia I get 'playback not possible' error CS2318. They moved me from ethernet cable to wifi, but didn't resolve. Then told me was an issue in my area (none was reported), but if I restart device it works so not an issue in the area. Called Mon morning and still waiting for a call back

  • griffplaysgames Griff (@griffplaysgames) reported

    @virginmedia Have already tried by phone for months. The package has become too expensive plus some job issues has resulted in no longer being able to afford such a high price package but as we are two months behind with only ever enough to pay one month. Your team refuse to help

  • alistair_kealey Lord Alistair Kealey (@alistair_kealey) reported

    @virginmedia robbed 72 pound a month call centre refused to log a complaint when suffering 12 months wifi problems

  • dilrajsachdev DILRAJ (@dilrajsachdev) reported

    @virginmedia With @virginmedia complaints never work. My new account is not activated so can't make complaint online. On phone to my experience they don't take complaints or keep transferring to different department. Cleverly make it difficult so get less complaints. Well Done

  • scissorhands_s Edwards Scissorhands (@scissorhands_s) reported

    @virginmedia just wanna say thank you for the builders you hired, who think it's acceptable to not let you out of your home cause they're doing work. Or move away from your property whilst you leave. I dont know if they had covid. Luckily i video their rude behaviour.

  • helenwi51969444 Helen Willis💙 (@helenwi51969444) reported

    @virginmedia who can I contact to get a breakdown of costs? My partner's employer will pay his broadband costs but need paperwork which lists separate from TV. Customer service can't help
