-
Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, EnglandSo many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty
-
Acuharmony-UK (@AcuharmonyUK) reported from Clevedon, England@virginmedia No reported issues. Tried the fixes before, and so did virgin chat. Not just my handset, other people are having the same problem. Am I going to have to change networks, is that what you're saying? Due to the change to O2?

Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I did that this morning & the person said they were in complaints department..he said I needed to speak to retentions & a manager would call. He raised a complaint Ref:C160622488. Got a call this afternoon where the manager of customer services said there was nothing he could do.
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Can I just ask why it is that you can respond within minutes on social media (where the public can see your actions) but then in private you are ignoring your customers and taking three weeks to deal with issues? If you have agents manning twitter why can’t you pick up the phone?
-
andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, WalesProperly for the best part of a yr doesn't seem a problem to yourselves but your quite happy to take out monthly payment for a service we're paying for but you're not providing & seem to be in no hurry to provide it. Disgraceful service @virginmedia
-

You have turned from being a very good company with good service to being the most disgusting people I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with!!!
-

Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
You’re Just Listening 😀 (@ChatchoMan) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK If Virgin Media are such money grabbing filth that they don’t want to believe a grieving person that contacts them and just terminate the contract they should at least backdate it based on the death certificate. Anything other than that is disgraceful.
-
MR COOL (@Lifeline04India) reported@virginmedia Yes from. 5 days. Can we get compensated for such issues? Please fix. Due to this issue I have moved to virgin and it’s the same here
-

-
Michael Crick (@MichaelLCrick) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK As I have said here before, Virgin Media treat customers with total contempt. The worst type of British capitalism. Branson must be so ashamed.
-
Karen B 🌹🇪🇺 🇺🇦💜🤍💚KarenB@KBGreyhoundLady (@KBGreyhoundlady) reported@virginmedia E mails crashed out 2 days ago. OH rang & eventually spoke to a human. Apparently it’s a widespread problem. We need the emails. This is shoddy service. When is it going to be fixed. Not good enough
-
Lisa (@LisaPatten2) reportedAbsolute quality service from @virginmedia as always. Broadband not working all morning, it might be fixed by 7pm, whoop whoop. 150 quid a month well spent. Daylight robbery.
-
Sarah (@sarahvkeenan) reported@virginmedia who can I contact about my broadband not working for 4 days?
-
Dunc in a bothy (@1123funko) reported@virginmedia I did all that before I tried on here. Not my first experience with this stuff. The issue was I had a ppv bought that I didn’t get to watch so the point is moot now tbh.
