    @virginmedia Please advise how to remove/reset a Virgin Media online account as original login details all out of date. No help on website, live chat or text so please don’t suggest these.

    @virginmedia It is hard to complain. I just want to send an email but cannot find how to do this. I do not want to speak to your call centre or use the live text - both routes have failed to respond to complaint. Only other method is to send in a physical letter.

    @virginmedia There seems to be a region wide problem with your internet service and your service status page is broken - a service announcement would be useful might save you a few incoming calls too?

    Not happy with Virgin Media at the moment. No WiFi since Saturday. Tried calling and got nowhere as the call centre is closed. Don't need this during self isolation. Does anyone else have this problem. Not good enough Virgin Media.

    @virginmedia It fails daily, last two pay per view films buffered. After numerous calls to CS it is established I need a new box ! Also discussed my package offer which runs out on 31/7 for him to advise I go to sky !! After 15 years service !

    It would appear that @virginmedia broadband is down across the SW until at least midday. Not that you’d know from VM. Have had to glean this from internet searches & Facebook. Usual poor VM customer service.

    @franklake @virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph Wait till you finally cancel, you then have to wait for the return packaging to be delivered, assemble the bloody thing, put your boxes into the box they send, including cables and remote, and send it all back or get charged 100 quid. Enjoy!

    @danslee @virginmedia That’s shocking customer handling Dan. If it’s any help I’ve actually found the guys @TalkTalk pretty good especially on tech issues around broadband.

  • MElcoate
    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    @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...

  • MElcoate
    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    Dear @virginmedia, I rarely take to social media to complain however attempts to make a formal complaint via telephone “help”line & via online chat have failed. Your customer service is the worst I’ve ever experienced. Your complaint handling process is also broken. @WhichUK

    @MartinDaubney @virginmedia I've heard negative stories.about them downhere. Again around service. Dread to think what will happen with Flybe, if Virgin supply shoddy service.

    @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 Hi. Following up the comment above. I have heard nothing from the team. Your complaint handling process is broken.

    @virginmedia I have a Virgin complaint ref and a Cisas ref number. Don’t have them to had as I’m at work. I had no ref number relating to GDPR concerns that I emailed to the email address on your site.

    @virginmedia Leaving because of your ineptitude.. I should take legal action against you for the lack of service you’ve provided causing me and my wife a multitude of hassle cos we work from home .. jokers

    Looks like a lot of people don’t have internet or tv @virginmedia all over the country. 4 the past 2 weeks the service has been diabolical yet @virginmedia have not issued a statement. I’m disabled & kids r gamers so looks like I’m about to switch providers. ANY RECOMMENDATIONS?
