    @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

  • 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!

  • 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. :(

  • iMeyrick 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.

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

  • 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 🤔

  • 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

    @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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Sorry doesn't fix the problem

  • beth_emma_ Beth Emma (@beth_emma_) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • jamesjohara James O'Hara (@jamesjohara) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia My 18 month broadband contract ends next month and I wish to cancel.

  • baldyid Paul Smenis 🐜 (@baldyid) reported

    @virginmedia They said IT would do something to resolve it. We tried to activate it through my vigin media online but the button on the web page does not work. On the phone I was refused by an advisor when I asked to soeak to a supervisor, asked to raise a complaint…

  • MissDonnaCooke Cookie (@MissDonnaCooke) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sorry really trying to be chill but this is horrendous customer service. Cut off after 40 mins, call back which I answer immediately and cut off again. No further attempt from your team to contact me. I've told them i want to cancel my order can you please confirm?

  • IainBurke1 Iain Burke 🇪🇺 (@IainBurke1) reported

    @edanderson101 @virginmedia Good grief - you have my sympathies. We only get relatively minor connection problems.
