    @sabele26 @Kat_Bee_123 @virginmedia Terrible none of them have good customer service, sky's as bad.

  • BeauSooth Gerry McCrudden (@BeauSooth) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia "I am really so sorry that you are looking to cancel the services which I will need to get you connected with our customer relations team who will be able to help you further..." I had to ring on a different day as I had no more time that day

  • nadean_ni Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia both tv and broadband have been down for well over 24 hours now. Not good enough! Any reason for this?

  • Hudd84 Conor Huddleston (@Hudd84) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    No Internet for 2 days now @virginmedia no facility to speak to anyone, book a technician or anything else for that matter. Your help text is quite frankly useless in this situation. Please provide a method to get this resolved ASAP. Awful service.

  • beezlebum Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No! It's your issue with your equipment. You should be keeping me, as a valued customer, informed. I've spent hours listening to crap music waiting to get information about this. Then being lied to. Do better.

  • MarkMcL60727750 Mark McLaughlin (@MarkMcL60727750) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I am not happy with my Internet speeds. I have been a virgin customer for 3 years and have been told that I apparently have too many devices connected which I have never heard of with any previous provider. I have 100mbps and have had nothing but slow lagging stream

  • StripeyMiata Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @asa_thorp Virgin Media are worse to cancel, believe me.

  • beezlebum Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you've surpassed yourselves this time! 50 days without broadband and yet another promised date of reconnection passed with no communication or explanation. I refuse to waste another sunny weekend waiting for your useless 'customer services' to lie to me.

  • CllrMichaelLong Michael Long (@CllrMichaelLong) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @superbowler4 @virginmedia They are terrible.

  • AmandaFBelfast Amanda Ferguson (@AmandaFBelfast) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Hi. It now 4 hours since I started trying to resolve your billing mistake using your WhatsApp messaging service. I have had to explain myself more than half a dozen times. Please check the details and resolve the matter asap. Thank you. Amanda

  • DonnellyWAFC Conor Donnelly (@DonnellyWAFC) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Hello, I have an ongoing issue with my Broadband Can you assist me please.

  • lilmissymoo90 Lauren Blair♥ (@lilmissymoo90) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia trying to cancel my SIM card went threw everything yesterday on watsap got transferred to retentions and now today I’ve to start all over again 😭 just cancel the sim im not paying it

  • beezlebum Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No! I've just spent 26 minutes trying to get through, so I'm just going to pester you on here instead. I've raised three separate complaints to no avail. My only recourse is public humiliation. For a communications company you're really very poor at it.

  • Anna_McD91 Anna Poland (@Anna_McD91) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia worst service ever. Who can I speak to about cancelling a contract that has never gone more than 3 days without freezing and buffering?

  • Dermo1888 Dermdog ☭ (@Dermo1888) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Never mind, send me my deadlock letter

  • SeanJPMcKee Seán MacAoidh (@SeanJPMcKee) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I opted out of marketing, it’s from your sales team trying to stop my from switching my service, it’s overkill especially as I’ve already had the conversation with your agents about it.

  • Dermo1888 Dermdog ☭ (@Dermo1888) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I'm shocked how poor you treat your customers. I cancelled my service 10 days ago and somehow you talked me into staying... but then failed to live up to your promises again... I have cancelled today. Thank God for the 14 cooling off period. #Broadband #complaint

  • isabelsbaby kimbo (@isabelsbaby) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I rang the number spoke to a lady who put me through to another dept where I spoke to lady called Jam. She sd her supervisor wud call me after lunch guess what? He didn't. I need ure company to contact ME or im leaving. Horrendous customer service. Kim

  • beezlebum Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No. YOU need to talk to me. YOU need to tell me what's going on. YOU need to sort out your woefully inadequate 'customer service'.

  • beezlebum Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Nearly an hour trying to call. I have better things to be doing on a Saturday. This is atrocious. All I want is an explanation as to why I have been denied a service for two months and lied to repeatedly.

  • HuwMatthews1 Huw Matthews (@HuwMatthews1) reported

    @virginmedia Ok. You’ve clearly not read what I’ve written. I want to cancel my contract due to your price increase. I keep getting cut off when I call you. Please call me now.

  • EllieMcHugh_ Elle ✨ (@EllieMcHugh_) reported

    @virginmedia It’s with you. I’ve waited 5 days for a response on my application after being told it would only take 24hrs..rubbish customer service considering I was trying to sign up to a 24month contract 🤡

  • theking1534 david (@theking1534) reported

    @virginmedia Maybe 4g 3g and 2g mobile signal is down in ne34 0te

  • MSmudge_English Matt Smith (@MSmudge_English) reported

    Hi @virginmedia trying to contact you but the call keeps going dead when I'm listening to your lovely music. My signal is fine plus I'm WiFi calling. Get back to me please.

  • timdnottingham Tim Dawson (@timdnottingham) reported

    @virginmedia So that's excusing cutting customers off now? The service just keeps getting worse. Can you please clarify given that you've increased my monthly fee without notifying me whether i will be able to leave my contract with immediate effect without any penalty?

  • frenchfancy1989 sarahlou (@frenchfancy1989) reported

    @virginmedia why are you making it impossible to move house ands arrange an engineer? Online chat and WhatsApp doesn't work and it won't let me on the phone

  • nicolam604 nicky (@nicolam604) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia so why have I had this issue still today ???

  • BubsyKhan bubsy khan (@BubsyKhan) reported

    @virginmedia what a disgrace of a company, being in touch today for the fifth time, every time I talk to someone for 20 mins they put the phone down and I have to call again. My internet issues is with the new hub 5 and I loose signal every hr since installing it 5 days ago.
