Robot Monkey (@BeppoMonkeyBoy) reported from Bucknall, England@virginmedia shocking service already thinking of cancelling, and I’ve not even been setup yet. I’d avoid, maybe I’ll talk to the other fiber in my area, I think they are a lot cheaper.
-
Julie Podet (@JuPo71) reported from Biddulph, England@virginmedia very disappointed with your level of service to an elderly disabled customer. Drafting a complaint that will be with your shortly.

𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙🏳️🌈 (@mbusby993) reported from Mow Cop, EnglandHey @virginmedia, please install fibre lines in Mow Cop (ST7) so I can get rid of PlusNet. Had to change from Virgin Broadband when we moved, and I never had a single issue. Sick of PlusNet outages now.
-
Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia I have been trying to sort out the issue off my password not working and the internet dropping out for over a week. I am getting passed around in circles. Please can you tell me how much notice I need give to leave and also give me an email for complaints please
-
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
-

-
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

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@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!!!
-

Thanks a bunch @virginmedia, customer service not good at all
-
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
-
Jessica Oliver (@Jess_L_Oliver) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England@virginmedia I’ve now got an “intermittent signal issue” message
-
Chris Laws (@ChrisLaws1) reported from Cheadle, England@virginmedia please sort your service out... I have now been on the phone to you for almost an hour. The first person hung up on me, the second was rude and useless. All for £0.01 which I don't owe. No wonder the landlords are removing virgin from all of the apartments
-
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
-
SBJ💙 (@SharonJukes) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandTwo 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
-
David Knight (@Knightfight7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia Didn’t think your service could get worse.Wifi is now completely unusable.Getting 3mb wired into a Xbox one.Still got considerable amount of tv channels not working.All for £100 per month.What an absolute disgrace
-
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.
-
Rob (@robbiedyson) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England@virginmedia is there any outage with the Staffordshire area ST5
-
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
-
Chris Walton (@Ohrate_Tri) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia how do I organise a home move service. I’ve been on hold on the online chat since yesterday teatime. No one is answering or speaking to me in there.

Dominic Hanley (@Dominiho7) reported@virginmedia what's going on with your internet today? Just don't fancy giving the service your customers pay for?
-
David Whiteside (@yardley_canary) reported@virginmedia are in top 3 worst companies I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. They may even be top. Rude, expensive, evasive, and unreliable. What started as a simple investigation into switching for cost reasons has now made me resolute in my decision! Disgusting!
-
CymroGlyn 🏳️🌈🏴🏉🍾♿️ (@cymroglyn) reported@virginmedia I'm raising a complaint about the way my problem was handled. But you still need to do something about the account that I said is imitating you. You are enabling them to scam your customers out of money. Some customers will no doubt lose a significant amount belly.

Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England@virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!
