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

    @virginmedia Been reaching out for 6hrs on your app and still not resolved a basic problem @TradeStandards

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia So you stopped replying to my emails The install team has finally turned up, one week later than the promised date, only to find the team that spent an hour digging up my road, haven’t pulled the cables and therefore cannot complete the install What will you do to help now?

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia You’re mistaken. I was in contact with your colleague via email. But they’ve stopped communicating I have raised a complaint, but was promised a call back which didn’t happen Even the Ombudsman have had to stop taking complaints about Virgin Media due to the volume of calls

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia No. Your staff don’t respond to emails when they come back on shift. I’d like to raise a complaint please. Please escalate this to your supervisor if this is something you can’t do. I’ve been waiting since 14th December. Do you feel this is acceptable customer service?

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

    @virginmedia Honestly I'd rather not as we have called so many times and get different call centres. Get cut off and can never speak to the otmriginal care team. Please can someone call us considering this is part of our compliant

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia With all due respect, saying sorry doesn’t sort anything. I’d much rather you offered some help If I treated a ‘Customer’ in my workplace the same way Virgin Media have treated my family, I’d almost certainly lose my job. The customer service continues to be appalling

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Don’t you think a courtesy message to say they’re off shift now? All email communication suddenly stopped, with no explanation 2 days ago. And I’m still waiting. I’d like to raise a complaint now please, this has been going on for almost 3 weeks now.

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Why? I’ve called over 20 times now. I’ve been promised call backs that never happen I put in a complaint that promised a call back that didn’t happen The pre install team turned up, I fed them and gave the cuppas, they dug up the road but didn’t pull the cable. What next?

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Did you read the message, I don't want to call or use whats app ad uve spent far too long doing this already. So I'll have to complain in writing then it seems. Shocking service yet again you do not read whta a customer is saying.

  • dhillsalbion damien hills (@dhillsalbion) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It says no 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

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

    @virginmedia It's fine I am going to cancel my contract as the offer to retain is disgraceful when compared to offer from others

  • 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.

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Yes I am, we’ve had the pre pull of the cables completed this morning, and are ready for the installation. We’ve not received any box, or anything through the post yet My Complaint Ref: ic-191222-237

  • 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

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia It’s not working. You’re welcome to call me. I’m quite friendly

  • 5waysRichard Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Yes it seems to be ok, but I don’t understand why it would be going down every day between midnight and 1am

  • Sacto_King_UK 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

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia But I’ve been in touch with the phone teams, they can’t or don’t do anything’s. At all. The Social Team were in contact via email, but finish their shift, and don’t tell me. Then don’t get back in contact, or pass me on to a colleague. It’s terrible customer service

  • hippieteacup Elle (@hippieteacup) reported

    @virginmedia i need to cancel my virgin broadband. ive been waiting for over 3 weeks, twice no one has turned up on the installation date. first time i called, they made out theres an error on the website. second time no one turned up. customer phone service is bad.

  • 1980sepo kev sheils U13's jogo (@1980sepo) reported

    @Nicola__Jane__ @virginmedia Mrs never had a problem in 15yrs of working from home, An our wi-fi never loses signal.?” Maybe u got a fault somewhere sure @virginmedia will sort it out for you 👍🏼

  • JoeHuxley2 Joe Huxley (@JoeHuxley2) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah, but the time just gets pushed back and back every single time it's met. I rely on the broadband to work and £8 a day compensation to miss out on a daily wage is pretty damning. An actual estimate of time fix would be ideal, not just a number plucked out of thin air.

  • munoz_cheryl Cheryl Munoz (@munoz_cheryl) reported

    @virginmedia No I won’t be free for that long, can you get someone to call me please like I was told? I’m paying for a service I don’t have and my baby’s monitors need wifi. This has been ongoing for over 3 weeks.

  • WilmonWhite Wilmon (@WilmonWhite) reported

    I've had no TV service from @virginmedia now since Saturday in SG18, apparently it'll be fixed by 12:00 today, which clearly it isn't. When will I be able to watch TV again?

  • RouletteDevil John B (@RouletteDevil) reported

    @virginmedia Lol what an absolute joke, stop using generic answers… people need to know the issue and when eventually it will work again

  • Rubixs_ Michael (@Rubixs_) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, could someone help me with setting up my account? I got my installation tomorrow but i cant verify my email. Tried resending the verification email multiple times but nothing shows up in any of my inboxes no matter how long i wait

  • GlitchedTurtle glitchedturtle (@GlitchedTurtle) reported

    @HANCXCK @virginmedia virgin media is the worst internet company in the entirety of the uk like richard brandson gotta stop spending money on flying to the moon and fix the wires or some **** idek

  • TristenTruefitt Tristen Truefitt (@TristenTruefitt) reported

    @virginmedia yes both services are down i’ve tried turning it on and off i’ve restarted it and nothing seems to worn

  • JoeHuxley2 Joe Huxley (@JoeHuxley2) reported

    @virginmedia Us knowing the problem would be great too, because said problem not being fixed in 4+ days just becomes a bad reflection on your engineers, despite that probably not being case
