    @virginmedia As per many comments in this thread I have suffered at the hands of terrible VM customer service. Employees don’t seem to have the tools to do a decent job. So many pillars & posts to be passed between. VM ok when it works but if you need help...

    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get hold of someone to establish why I cannot login to my account online and why I have been overcharged. Despite being told several times that someone would get back to me in 24 hours it never seems to happen. Please advise how I can reach you.

    @virginmedia I had my WiFi and phone installed back in June , the box outside my house was broken so your engineer connected to my next door neighbour, and was told it would only be for a week , I have phoned numerous times and just get ignored . Atrocious service!

    @virginmedia I need to contact you. I have tried by chat (what a terrible service). I just rang, you answered the phone and hung up immediately. I am livid. How are you going to help me?

  • gemmaperlin
    Gemma Perlin (@gemmaperlin) reported

    @virginmedia hello my booster on the wifi has not been working for a while whenever I call the helpline I just get the automated service which says it is running tests but doesn't fix it. Please could you help? Thanks

  • Nicole_Baker
    Coley B (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia As was promised (via, text, tweet and written correspondence!!) I have spent countless hours on hold to no resolve. I will await your promised call. Each day I don't receive said call/contact I will continue to demonstrate publicly how bad your customer services are..

  • EllisJBH
    Ellis (@EllisJBH) reported

    @virginmedia I was told an engineer was doing work in the area to resolve the issue, but this has been going on for weeks and I have read online multiple engineers have been out to the area. I would just like some clarity as to what is actually going on.

  • Paulzzo
    Paul Campbell (@Paulzzo) reported

    @virginmedia Hello! Your virgin media technician Tom (ID 76917) came to my house on the 2nd Feb and rewired a faulty cable resolving all issues. I haven't recieved a survey for him?? He did a cracking job and don't want him to miss out on good feedback and most likely commission

  • Lewisinho
    Lewis ☻ 𓃰 (@Lewisinho) reported

    @virginmedia yo my guys what’s going on we’ve had a line fault twice in the last month and it’s preventing me from working - had no issues in the last 5 or so years and now it’s a shambles all of a sudden?

  • gabriellehoad
    gabriellehoad (@gabriellehoad) reported

    There are some lovely, competent people working for @virginmedia but what good is that when their wider customer service model sucks?

  • DanHorler
    Dan Horler (@DanHorler) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Thanks for your reply. It is everywhere. The technical team have said it is a problem with the routing of the number. But they haven’t updated my ticket for 9 days now. I really need this sorting out

  • TerraceFabulous
    TerraceFabulous (@TerraceFabulous) reported

    @virginmedia No, I’m not logging into yet another waste of time. I’m leaving Virgin. Why are you on Twitter? You don’t solve anything just tell me to call the number that never gets answered. Waste of time. Can I dm you?

  • rosslaaaa
    Ross (@rosslaaaa) reported

    @virginmedia do you wanna sort the terrible internet in our house instead of fobbing us off with a daft robot, telling us all is fine? The signal is disgraceful.
