    @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'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!

  • 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?

  • 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

  • hughes_nh Neil hughes (@hughes_nh) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @DUCKmagstoke When will people learn that virgin media it terrible compared to sky 🤔

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

    @Ofcom how the hell can @virginmedia seriously refuse to allow customers to raise a complaint??? This is bloody awful!!!!!!! Two calls and both calls refuse to allow me to raise a formal complaint!!! Both call takers clearly in a different country and have issues understanding

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

    @virginmedia Sorry doesn't fix the problem

  • 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!

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

    @virginmedia Why cant someone just ring me so I can actually explain what the problem is. When I try and light in it does not recognize my mothers maiden name and I'm sure I have got that right so then I cant get any further

  • 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

  • robbiedyson Rob (@robbiedyson) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia is there any outage with the Staffordshire area ST5

  • 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.

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

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

  • gingerjames1990 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!!!

  • 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

  • whipblue Julie Leech (@whipblue) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia Hi they returned back to full service early this morning we have issue with the broadband though still I live in small bungalow and we unable to connect to the internet I rang several times with the same issue my neighbours have been having issue to connecting to WiFi

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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!

  • yassie_j Yaseen (@yassie_j) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 Only a *****-lover with **** for brains would consider this a win

  • FLYBIRDX Flybird (@FLYBIRDX) reported

    @virginmedia liking the new package and TV. Although I’m having terrible sync issues with the sounds. Tried to tweak with the delay but no go as yet!

  • JPzidane Jut Parker (@JPzidane) reported

    @virginmedia Service usage has gone up because most people have been in lockdown and in furlough! You'll have to do better than that to convince people lol. How does more people using your service keep the price down. Your talking utter rubbish.

  • Ronnie_taff23 Ronnie (@Ronnie_taff23) reported

    @virginmedia My tv box isn’t working. It won’t switch on at all. When I phoned about it 10 weeks ago I was told there is a problem and I would get a call back in the next 24 hours

  • bonjovibird Elaine F (@bonjovibird) reported

    @virginmedia Partly, I was told on Friday by the man I spoke to that I could transfer my package over there & then, I said can I change package over on Friday 14/1/22 he said yes & told me it comes in affect then, the contract says 6/2/22 not 14/1/22 so rang today & agentsEnglish poor

  • NeedhamTori Tori Needham (@NeedhamTori) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, I know how you work! Had no broadband for 4 days in November and looks like here we go again. Unbelievably bad service!

  • BustinChops7 Bustin Chops (@BustinChops7) reported

    @virginmedia Cut off after 1 hour of waiting. At what point do I just cancel my DD at the bank? I'm only few days in to my new contract, so it's easy to walk.

  • FG7410 FG74 (@FG7410) reported

    @virginmedia I did. Unfortunately I constantly have to check the service status. I get the “sorry! You caught us at work” screen….

  • TheTomJoyce Tom (@TheTomJoyce) reported

    @virginmedia If that's the case why on earth won't you match the £29.99 package new customers get? I've already cancelled my contract with Virgin but would happily stay if I'm afforded the same courtesy as a new customer.

  • MicroRocketMan NobodySpecial 🌍 (@MicroRocketMan) reported

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Nadine talking ****. As a Gov, taking back control of its laws could simply legislate... get in the bin...
