    @virginmedia Seems its all over the area. Dozens of posts on local SM pages, people without service since late last night. Can't wait to change providers, to a company that actually supply what I pay for

  • CharlesB2T
    Charles Brittain (@CharlesB2T) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia how do I simply cancel my account on a chosen date? It seems impossible to arrange this on your website or app.

    Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been promised a call back from Virgin media 6 or 7 times in the last 6 days No one called me back I was told by Virgin Media to raise a complaint, so I did. The lady who took my complaint promised to call me back yesterday She didn’t Worst customer service

  • INEya_veganfood
    RJ Buddha (@INEya_veganfood) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia crisis with 50%+ increase in monthly costs for no reason. No increase in service, no additional benefits - nothing! Then an horrendous contact centre service.

  • indiointernet
    Brian Roe (@indiointernet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Call you...? How do you think I found out about the issues? I wasted hours on the phone calling the numbers you have quoted. Give me strength.

    Sami Channon (@sami_chanchan) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom @TradeStandards just called to try & cancel my plan as I have just been evicted. you don’t supply my new flat but want to charge me £250, your agent was so rude and refused to transfer me to a manager. Thanks for making a hard time worse!

    3/4 T&Cs: Moving home outside of or within the Virgin Media Network service area “If you move within our service area, we cannot guarantee to provide you services, if we are unable to provide services, then you can cancel and you will not need to pay an early disconnection fee”

    @virginmedia tv and WiFi down in BN14?

  • dianepatching
    Diane Patching (@dianepatching) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Can you please advise when I can watch Paramount + through VM? I ring and liaise with your advisors through “Chat” and get told it’s on channel 150. Well it isn’t. No where can I find this channel. No one can offer me any help as to where this channel is located.

  • dizzymabil
    ydnam (@dizzymabil) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia It's OK. I'll leave it Last call cost me over £8 & I didn't even get to speak to anyone. Ridiculously poor support

  • garypleece
    Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia BN1 6FN - I’ve done the checks through your app and says no issue?

  • garypleece
    Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia So… are you saying work is being carried out today. Wait until tomorrow and then if still bad book an engineer? I can live with that. But the person I spoke to had no idea about that and just booked an engineer again. Can I ask have other people raised area issues?

  • mattiem1976
    Matt (@mattiem1976) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia It shouldn't of happened in first place really disappointed in this as I have been a customer over 25 years

  • pwvoiceovers
    Patrick Woodward (@pwvoiceovers) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia You asked me to contact you to fix an issue but there are no options to do so. Phone number, when I found it, just led to a bot. Poor service.

  • oldfootballprog
    OldFootballProgramme (@oldfootballprog) reported from Worthing District, England

    @virginmedia bloody hell Virgin sort your broadband out, down at 6am now down for 25 mins so far, are you being attacked as it all seems very weird to me ?

  • garypleece
    Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia They couldn’t fix it last Saturday… It’s been better today, but still up and down at certain times. Def not fully fixed

  • NatalieAHills
    Natalie Hills (@NatalieAHills) reported from Hove, England

    My boyfriend has been trying to cancel his @virginmedia account since September when his contract came to an end, and to this day he is still on the phone to them trying to disconnect his broadband. Worst company and customer service I’ve ever had to witness.

  • melon_h
    Helen Rimmer 💙 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia This is still appalling customer service. I have to register (I did this when things were down in Dec for almost 72 hours), I have to alert etc you are the service provider. How is it good CS that we assume you are lying in estimates? No compensation for Dec either.

  • fabsalva
    Fabrizio Salvatore (@fabsalva) reported from Woodingdean, England

    @virginmedia is there a known issue in the BN2 6 area of Brighton with your broadband? Crashed at 14:30 and hub seems to be unable to rejoin the network...

  • sara_saehasti
    Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia With all due respect I can't face another encounter via the phone or WhatsApp, far too time consuming. Could you provide me with an actual complaints email address as the online submission doesn't work

  • Redveee
    Shaun Todd (@Redveee) reported

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia I renewed recently with a few clicks online cause I had to replace my Tivo box for a TV 360 box. I was out of contract and paid £104 for 2 months, new bill for same service is now £64, less than what I was paying in contract. After 12 months it goes up to £69.

  • iPaulTweeting
    iPaulTweeting (@iPaulTweeting) reported

    Here’s an idea @virginmedia if the question your bots are asking have no relevance to the question you asked perhaps one of the options presented could be ‘talk to a human’? Also, although I’m not really that bothered that your support staff are not English please note that it does not aid understanding

  • soapyrct
    Sean Pearson (@soapyrct) reported

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia Because they expect lots of folk to either not realise or just pay anyway, its also why they make it so difficult to call. Funny you can join and change everything on line except cancel! Virgin are THE worst company for service.

  • mec337
    mec337 (@mec337) reported

    @virginmedia Ok, having my account number and area reference dosent help because my 24 year old original blueyonder email address from Virgin does not allow me to link my email with the myvm app - shall I give up

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    @virginmedia I've just wasted 55 minutes of my life trying to talk to your 'customer services' dept. Both the staff members I spoke to could barely communicate in English, and the line kept breaking up... until it died altogether. Wasted time, no resolution, and huge frustration. You're supposed to be a COMMUNICATIONS company! What am I expected to do now? Go through that same shambolic exercise again?

  • f4ckiam
    Gerbil (@f4ckiam) reported

    I feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2 I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is

  • IFBMedia
    IFB Media (@IFBMedia) reported

    Damien Duff earlier tonight on Virgin Media reflecting on his time away from football and his decision to leave Shels… “I was running on anger, I stopped being Damien Duff” From being a Top Class Footballer, to an excellent coach and based off tonight’s display he’s also an exceptional pundit! Love him, or loathe him I don’t really care (and nor does he) speaking on any potential next move “I’ve fallen out with every club, every fanbase, I don’t know where would welcome me, but never say never” For me, we need to have him involved in Irish Football no matter what the capacity, he has so much to give and is Box Office in everything he does.. People talk about him going abroad, maybe back to Celtic where he learned his trade or even in the Championship with a club like Blackburn? There’s no doubt in my mind that he’s more than capable of doing a great job abroad too. But selfishly? I’d like him to stay in Irish Football in whatever capacity, because he has so much to give and I don’t think he’s motivated by money one bit. Look I’ve said it before (half jokingly) I’d love to see him do a tour of Irish Football of sorts whether that be the First Division, Premier, the Women’s National League or even Amateur Football?? I understand why it’s unlikely such is his profile but if I think anyone were to do it the man would be Duffer!

    @virginmedia I need a solution without spending hours on the phone with your excruciatingly bad CS.

  • danielgoble
    Daniel Goble (@danielgoble) reported

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia The whole point is to just get you locked into another deal. You threaten to switch and then they lower it and hope you fall for it...all while they try to upsell **** TV packages that nobody wants.
