  • neilevo18781967 Neil evans EVO (@neilevo18781967) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia It was with regards to my services.. When I phoned about it the lack of professionalism was horrendous.. When I mentioned the lack of professionalism I was basically told what is your problem. Awful really

  • PlumbousSkin 💻gremlins r us💻 (@PlumbousSkin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Oh shit my bad, @virginmedia 's having problems again... what a surprise..

  • Andreaeday Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia <sigh> suppose I really shouldn’t have thought that you would provide a good customer service experience based on my experience of my recent dealings. Sad; Virgin Media used to be pretty awesome. Disappointed.

  • Andreaeday 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.

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

    @virginmedia hey guys lost complete internet service in ST3 area, router states: Provisioning state: Offline and internet (Access Denied) 😔

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

    @virginmedia Unfortunately not, I even gave two phone numbers and an email, just want to know if there is an issue local to me or if it’s a network issue, I can deal with downtime but drop outs and high latency really are frustrating, can’t really have another half a day off work...

  • PlumbousSkin 💻gremlins r us💻 (@PlumbousSkin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Weve had an engineer out, he replaced our router then buggered off. The problems kept happening even with a new router.. its been months of calling & faffing around trying to get this problem fixed & still nothing, its a joke.

  • mymodlifecrisis sean cosgrove (@mymodlifecrisis) reported from Congleton, England

    So @virginmedia don’t understand my 78 year old deaf father cannot call them. They call me as asked out of the blue and tell me they can’t fix the broadband problem, they WONT send an engineer out and I’m getting upset because I’m not hearing what I want. They got that right x

  • adam_bocca Adam Bocca (@adam_bocca) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @Virgin_Victoria @virginmedia 1hr and 10mins later after speaking with CS they have confirmed that they cannot help me with my matter and a ticket has been raised which VM will be in touch with me by SMS within 5 working days. CS loved talking too me when I signed up a month ago. #virginmedia

  • PeachyBeechy cara (@PeachyBeechy) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia shocked and appalled by the rude and aggressive manner of one of your agents just now during an unsolicited sales call.

  • mymodlifecrisis sean cosgrove (@mymodlifecrisis) reported from Mow Cop, England

    @soundoftheatom @dec1878 Don’t go to @virginmedia My 78 dads doesn’t work or his broadband. He is deaf and can’t talk to them on the phone but they won’t send an engineer out. Happy to take his money though. They’ll sit up when I cancel it tomorrow

  • iwanevans Iwan Evans (@iwanevans) reported from Congleton, England

    @virginmedia Almost like you didn't read my original message... Your stock answer STILL doesn't ring true, just repeating the phrase I quoted in my original message to me again doesn't help one little bit

  • Tiny_Tog Tiny Tog (@Tiny_Tog) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Great customer services at @virginmedia this morning.Waited 28mins for phone to be answered then to be given a phone number that says there’s no issues. F1 starts in less than an hour #lookingfornewprovider

  • adam_bocca Adam Bocca (@adam_bocca) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I signed up and got my install on Saturday the 2nd. I was trying to login to my account via the App and through a webpage with me not hearing anything regarding my first billing process And it's not letting me do so I just get an error message saying that my user does not exist.

  • PlumbousSkin 💻gremlins r us💻 (@PlumbousSkin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I experience this problem all the time. Our phones dont connect, our internet randomly drops out, this isnt a new problem. Just a frustrating one. Everytime we 'monitor it for a week then check back' nothing is ever fixed. Its just a bad service in general.

  • mymodlifecrisis 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

  • mymodlifecrisis sean cosgrove (@mymodlifecrisis) reported from Congleton, England

    @virginmedia apparently I have to be at my dads house. Well that would be a long shot as I live 20 miles away and have to work. So they WONT help a 78 year old deaf man. Richard Branson. You’ll be 78 one day and no ****** will help you.

  • Tiny_Tog Tiny Tog (@Tiny_Tog) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Still no tv or broadband. Rang again 24mins to answer to be told id be without service til Tuesday/Wednesday, when a new hub could be delivered #virginmedia #nothappy #lookingfornewprovider

  • Andreaeday Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia 2/2 when modem mode was suggest I was just told it “turns off WiFi” - no help on how to fix. VPN is common from domestic WiFi - you should be clear and transparent to customers that you don’t support rather than charging for gadget rescue for something that can’t be fixed.

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

    @virginmedia how is the admin panel so slow on the hub 3.0, it’s actually terrible and has been since release 😒 I can’t even access my DHCP settings

    @virginmedia Today I cancel my contact I order new sky sim card

  • 100voicess Lauren Towers (@100voicess) reported

    @virginmedia leaving people sat on chat when they're already upset about your ridiculous pricing is not the best way to retain a customer, assuming your agent has gone on lunch?

  • Wa72279508Danny Danny Walker (@Wa72279508Danny) reported

    @virginmedia What a **** company virgin is. Still trying to harass me for money even though I’ve never had a service. Good luck to anyone signing up with this lot

  • Bo552023 Farooq (@Bo552023) reported

    @virginmedia Well, that's all good for you to say that it doesn't make a difference, but my experience tells otherwise. When customer service advisors give false names, one has to question their professionalism. Thank you for your time.

  • ian_muirhead Ian Muirhead (@ian_muirhead) reported

    Going through the usual farce with @virginmedia now my broadband contract has ended. Taking hours to speak to anyone on the chat, then getting terrible offers that are far more expensive than published "new customer" deals. How exactly do they expect to keep you doing that?!

  • HerveGengler Hervé Gengler (@HerveGengler) reported

    @Matthewmarkey @virginmedia Thanks Matt 👍 I had a horrible experience with BT and packet loss that made online gaming impossible 😔

  • AdamMJBrooks Adam Brooks (@AdamMJBrooks) reported

    @virginmedia #virginmedia Whatsapp help is the most appalling customer service experience I have ever had. Over 24 hours, losing connection and having to restart. Not reading my messages properly. Hopeless!

  • leemathewbrooks Lee Brooks (@leemathewbrooks) reported

    @virginmedia I've paid *again* this morning and still have no services. What on earth is going on? Speaking to someone on Live Chat who has no idea and is asking me to email addresses that don't even exist so could someone please jump on this and help?!

  • ian_muirhead Ian Muirhead (@ian_muirhead) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah, but you won't though. You're just some *** paid to answer social media posts in a positive manner so it looks like Virgin actually have some customer service. I respect you for that! But it's unlikely that you can actually engage or influence anything about my issue really!

  • Michael40145307 Michael Beck (@Michael40145307) reported

    @virginmedia Just off a call to Coco in the pre-installation team. Despite me asking him multiple times to cancel all services, he hung up on me as I wouldn't let him "educate me" as he so condescendingly put it. You don't half employ some imbeciles.
