    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

  • TheLensman
    Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia It might be best if you send a DM - we had a phone call from people who said they were virgin support. We have a phone number but the call felt wrong

    @zebadee1985 @virginmedia Virgin Media, fastest speeds but slowest customer service. It’s a massive shame, it really lets them down.

    J9PVFC (@J9PVFC) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

    @virginmedia Wanted to thank the lady that helped me today. The call ended and it was not me, and I really wanted to thank her. Hopefully you will pass it on, she hung on to the bitter death to help.

  • andyvic7
    Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia just had the misfortune to speak to the rudest person ever whilst trying to sort out my abysmal connection speed when she put the phone down on me after a 20 minute wait!!

  • 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!

  • 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

  • worleyyy
    Dan Worley (@worleyyy) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia I am glad to see you get your come uppence. Im still trying to leave you after a full year of terrible low speeds. Trying to force me into paying a leaving fee of £400 even though you do not provide a proper service. @Ofcom what do I do??? I'm fed up of poor service.

  • PHagerty70
    PH (@PHagerty70) reported

    @virginmedia my account has been locked since 7th May, no email or access to VM online services. I have spoken to you 10 times, including a ‘signed for’ complaint, received on 20th June. I have heard nothing, this is unacceptable. Please can someone help me? (Customer for 18yrs)

  • JDSuker
    Jaime Dodd (@JDSuker) reported

    I was with @virginmedia in Manchester. Moved to a place which they didn’t cover and basically wouldn’t let me out it the contract even though they couldn’t provide a service. Terrible company!

  • JagsArthurson
    Jags Arthurson (@JagsArthurson) reported

    When @virginmedia tells you to update your Tivo Box to the latest version, DON'T DO IT! It is truly RUBBISH There is not one single thing about it that is not WORSE than the previous version. So bad that I will be leaving Virgin as soon as I can

  • DoctorDisco63
    Owen Luckhurst (@DoctorDisco63) reported

    @MartinSLewis @MartinSLewis hearing about Virgin Media today I’m not surprised. They did the same to me around 2020, except they lied to me about my cancellation date. By the time I called to cancel, they said it was too late. So I disconnected everything and didn’t pay them a penny more.

  • mitzpatel85
    Mitesh Patel (@mitzpatel85) reported

    @Channel4News Don’t think £28m justifies their actions.. if they were deliberately putting customers on hold and dropping call while they tried to cancel, the fine should be £1bn - absolutely pathetic from Virgin Media

  • jomas1704

    @virginmedia sort your horrible internet out 👍🏻

  • BarryStevens75

    @virginmedia @virginmedia message sent midday today and no response not the best customer care

  • rosstristram
    Ross Tristram (@rosstristram) reported

    @Ofcom @Ofcom trousered £28m for themselves. Just as bad as @virginmedia 2 peas in a pod

  • whisperwoIf
    harley ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ (@whisperwoIf) reported

    @housecatkai @virginmedia i have mixed opinions on them, like they've provided the fastest internet speeds i've had out of other ISPs we've been with (sky, BT and talktalk) but our services always go down at least once a month and it's infuritating 😭😭
