  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia my internet is down, again 🙃 I'm in ST4

  • gingerjames1990 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!

  • ianmorris04 Ian Morris (@ianmorris04) reported from Checkley, England

    @JimBrowning11 @virginmedia @KolkataPolice They are also targeting sky customers, was seeing my mum phone went internet, today my house phone, same ****. Be careful people.

  • paramattharri84 Matt Harrison (@paramattharri84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia No! I'm not a customer its @KezMH who you need to apologise to. Seemingly your lack of ability to even read this thread properly emphasises your lack of ability to provide acceptable customer service

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Again have you read anything iv said????? THREE CALLS to your customer services and all connected to off shore people who have either not got a clue what a complaint is or refused to log one for me! Instead of repeating yourself sort it out! @Ofcom #poorcustomerservice

  • paramattharri84 Matt Harrison (@paramattharri84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @KezMH @virginmedia The hardest part of the problem is actually gettong to speak to someone

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Sorry are you not reading what I am saying? Three calls in the past 90 minutes and still they either don't understand what I'm saying or refuse to take a complaint!

  • jamesjohara 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?

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia Virgin Media have gone down massively! The amount they charge doesn't represent the customer experience at all!

  • SharonJukes SBJ💙 (@SharonJukes) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Two days have now passed and they have heard nothing. They have no phone or internet and Dad is 80. Please can someone contact me and I will provide further details by DM. This is poor service for what you class as a vulnerable age group. I have tried to call you #virginmedia

  • sophiebridgett Sophie Bridgett (@sophiebridgett) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia terrible internet this past 2 weeks!! Consistenly dropping 😫😫

  • sophiebridgett Sophie Bridgett (@sophiebridgett) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Still terrible. I've followed the instructions once signed in online however consistently dipping. :(

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It is awful! Virgin are very expensive compared to many other TV providers yet the customer service is very poor and does NOT suite the price. I'm sick of arguing with them to get the simplest of issues resolved

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Sorry doesn't fix the problem

  • SteveBoland1 Steve Boland 💙💛🇺🇦🌻#FBPE #FBPA (@SteveBoland1) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I've spoken with your agent Margaret in your cancellation team. She has now attempted to pass me to the broadband tech team. I have been on hold for nearly 20 mins now. Atrocious service. @virginmedia @bt can you help?

  • DavidMorgan14 David Morgan (@DavidMorgan14) reported

    @virginmedia can you please sort out the internet dropping out in Esher. The past week it has cut out numerous times for no reason. TIA.

  • missmazzles meredith mars, angry bird (@missmazzles) reported

    Sister has been transferred to three different people trying to cancel her virgin media contract on the house we're not living at and everyone asks the same security questions and then says they can't cancel it and she has to speak to someone else. She's very cross.

  • sudden_stars Captain Easychord (@sudden_stars) reported

    @virginmedia He phoned up. As your complaints system is clearly broken can I please email all the details someone who will actually respond properly please?

  • danfinan Dan (@danfinan) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, it’s ME6 5SD. If you could please run checks that would be useful. I’ve got no signal at all, it’s making work life extremely difficult.

  • NatashaWrightyn Natasha Wright (@NatashaWrightyn) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you for that amazing bit of advice. Yet again your not paying attention to the actual issue! Your staff members are booking appointments with Virgin members but not with your techs, wasting time and money!

  • andrewportess 𝙰𝚗𝚍𝚛𝚎𝚠 𝙿𝚘𝚛𝚝𝚎𝚜𝚜 (@andrewportess) reported

    @virginmedia Not as yet, but I can. Note however, I’m a wheelchair user who can’t connect everything up without help, so I’ll respond with more test results when possible. Our internet works, but I must admit, I’m disappointed that we are so far below the speed I’m expecting. Hope it improves

  • markbenhall Mark Hall 🔰 (@markbenhall) reported

    Red button not working for sky sports on @virginmedia again! #ncfc

  • LovesTKandSP Leah (@LovesTKandSP) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I’m having problems with my router I have tried trouble shooting but it’s not working, it says weak security and just won’t connect properly for my phone or ps4, please can you help?

  • JayGomer_1892 Jay (@JayGomer_1892) reported

    @virginmedia Onto my 4th call of the day - 3rd attempt of trying to cancel my service through retentions - last guy literally just hung up
