Rocketman_86 (@Rocketman_86) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia Your a tech company and doesn't have an email address. Your live chat is laughable and waiting times on the phones is silly. Trying log into the account - forget password the username doesn't exist. The self help is insulting intelligence is the ringer switched on for instance

Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@zebadee1985 @virginmedia Virgin Media, fastest speeds but slowest customer service. It’s a massive shame, it really lets them down.

James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It's awful! I'm sick of calling customer services and getting through to someone who cannot understand basic English language and goes on talking about something else. Then try to speak to three different advisers to raise a simple issue/complaint and they refuse!
-
James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia hi can someone please message me?? I need help with my bill! You've been overcharging me every month for the last 12 months!!!

Shaun Mountain (@Mountain1863) reported from Biddulph, England@virginmedia Not even a DM asking for contact details to discuss further @Ofcom & @CISASUK have been informed and will be supporting with furthering my complaint. Hopefully my followers will see these tweets and avoid your black Friday sales 👌👍 even if only one person avoids the #scammers

Les Chaplin (@LesChaplin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia I am not stupid I get that! However, the text I received said welcome to Greece you can use your phone exactly the same as if in the uk so I had absolutely no reason to switch roaming off when I never left the resort. I have kept the texts which state exactly that
-
Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England@virginmedia Just also discovered that even though I was told I wouldnt pay for gadget rescue & then I was charged in error. Called last weekend to sort and was told it was sorted, I’ve just been credited £5 rather than the £20 paid for initial set up. I am SO tired of this. Please fix it.
-
Les Chaplin (@LesChaplin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@McGiff @virginmedia I am having exactly the same problem over roaming charges for a country I’ve not been anywhere near a, appalling service and been told tough pay or they take me to court! At my wits end!
-
Les Chaplin (@LesChaplin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia Yes absolutely, soon as we landed I got the message saying I was in Greece and could use my mobile exactly the same as in the UK. At no point did it say to check for other countries in case they stole my network! I had been on the same network all week from 26th August
-
James O'Hara (@jamesjohara) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England@virginmedia do any of your technical support staff have the first clue what they’re on about?
-
Lesley Arnold (@LesleyA14768590) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandOk so vigin tv is down and with error code they say ring 150, fine ring 150 as they cant tell us on line the problem but they then say ' right now we are busy, you might like to call us later......goodbye! Thanks a bunch @virginmedia, customer service not good at all
-
Anthony Hibbs (@HibbsA) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England@Paulout @BT @virginmedia I can’t believe how bad BT have been over this. Advisors just seem to want to keep you talking even after taking 20+ mins to get through and then do nothing for you. Proper fed up 🙁

sean cosgrove (@mymodlifecrisis) reported from Congleton, England@virginmedia I’ll cancel the contract and they will soon be on the phone with threats. Bring it on. I’m ready for you

Paul (@JayDillinger123) reportedShocking service again from @VirginMedia who fail to provide access to Sky Sports Plus on the opening day of the EFL season. I was looking forward to watching Derby County. Seems you don't get what you pay for. #dcfc #dcfcfans

cheryl blake (@BlakeyCb48) reported@virginmedia I hope you’re going to compensate everyone for the lack of service we haven’t had !

Captain Howdy (@colonbarbarian) reported@denchaser @virginmedia I love my VM broadband, but dealing with their "customer service" team is like banging head against a brick wall. I just renewed my contract, still being charged twice as much as a new customer. Offered me £55 a month then went up to £59 as soon as I went to accept it.
-
William Taylor (@SharonTayl43839) reportedTired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_PRO_IPTV31 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies
