  • MandyPearse Mandy Pearse (@MandyPearse) reported from Teignmouth, England

    @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.

  • last_centurion JC (@last_centurion) reported from Chudleigh Knighton, England

    @CISASUK @virginmedia I used the resolution service to come to a settlement with Virgin on 9/4/19. Response from Virgin that a cheque would be sent and should be received within 7-10 working days. Today is the 12th working day and I’ve received no cheque in the post. Not happy

  • last_centurion JC (@last_centurion) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @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.

  • BrettWheeler33 Brett Wheeler (@BrettWheeler33) reported from Totnes, England

    @virginmedia Ok I'm very close to saying just stop and I'll go with @SkyUK as I'm sure they could install me much quicker just broadband is slow with sky

  • saints76 Chris Wright (@saints76) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia Just when I thought you'd fixed it, it goes wrong.....was working fine during the day. Busy times your service is shocking. I've now got the same message.... insufficient bandwidth.

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

    @WhichUK Thread below a snapshot of my frustration with Virgin Media customer care & their complaint handling process.

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

    @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.

  • redsoilgirl49 Redsoilgirl (@redsoilgirl49) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia Have tried 3 more times to get through with the same outcome. Paying a lot of money for no service and no customer service!

  • 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

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

    Apologies if my tweets with Virgin Media have landed in your timeline this evening. They couldn’t DM me and all other avenues of complaint have failed.

  • Owen_TwoTwos Owen (@Owen_TwoTwos) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia All sorted, went down for about 4 hours in total yesterday then came back up.

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia is there an outage in Torquay

  • Alydinsdale Aly Howard (@Alydinsdale) reported from Countess Wear, England

    @virginmedia no broadband for 18 hours and told won't be fixed until 12.9.19 refund for loss of service #Exeter

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

    @virginmedia Follow me and I will send you my account number by DM. Someone just needs to look at the call notes and text notes to determine my complaint. I’ve already used web chat.

  • redsoilgirl49 Redsoilgirl (@redsoilgirl49) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia second time this week internet and TV has stopped working and can’t get through on phone to get help. No problems in our area HELP!!!! #fedupwithvirginmedia

  • katiesdad52 Paul Henderson (@katiesdad52) reported from Brixham, England

    @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!

  • brenrich101 Brendan (@brenrich101) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia No complaints, just can’t take the service with me when I move! Only thing is an email confirmation would have nice detailing the termination, the date, and any fees/refunds due 👍🏼

  • Speng420 Speng (@Speng420) reported from Newton Abbot, England

    @virginmedia Ur shit wifi buffering constantly playing games on 1,100 ping legit not enjoyable

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

    @virginmedia I’m complaining about the difficulty & time taken to resolve an issue. Being on the helpline for over 2 hrs, being passed on numerous times, each time going thru security, each time explaining issue, people not calling back when promised, complaint not addressed. feel powerless.

  • last_centurion JC (@last_centurion) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @tapmydata @ICOnews @virginmedia I know. I’ve seen a few tweets people complaining about the customer service and their handling of data under the GDPR regulations

  • _Tinty_ Steph Bennett (@_Tinty_) reported

    @MouseLiterate @virginmedia What you told me about this earlier is AWFUL, I can’t believe @virginmedia would treat ANY customer like this, but to treat a NEW customer in this way is just awful! I’d say leave them & join Vodafone broadband, it’s better than Sky & Virgin in my opinion!!

  • 32bitboof bruh (@32bitboof) reported

    @virginmedia the whole service is providing trash speeds for everyone and I think you can see that if you look at the replies to every tweet

  • HarryStani Harry Staniforth (@HarryStani) reported

    @virginmedia Not your fault, but would have arranged a different payment if I was correctly informed. I have told them but still had no confirmation- your system never works despite being assured every time that it would work. Also, 45 days is an incredibly long time to wait for a refund.

  • brooklands911 tony (@brooklands911) reported

    @virginmedia Great and we know what will happen there...why not just have a contact number for the complaints team like any other business and the issue can be solved in 1 simple call ?

  • brooklands911 tony (@brooklands911) reported

    @virginmedia Like talking too a brick wall here , why not just say we don't care a **** ,nothing going too get done and you ducked as you tied into a contract, only company thats you can't talk to the complaints team ,and write too them but won't get a reply

  • 32bitboof bruh (@32bitboof) reported

    @virginmedia yea fix your ****

  • CaponesShadow Ian Brook (@CaponesShadow) reported

    @virginmedia And it's both, it's terrible broadband

  • liquidmynx LiquidMynx (@liquidmynx) reported

    @virginmedia The internet has gone off twice today, and I have had to restart my hub both times. How can I make a complaint please?

  • Boshek6 Boshek (@Boshek6) reported

    @virginmedia Ok managed to fix. Now looking to post. It’ll be Booshka.
