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

    @drummerwhitey @northernsky67 @virginmedia Steve it was a last resort for me but other avenues were fruitless, I ended up getting a visit from an engineer , a booster and a reduction in my tariff after I told them I’d leave , normal customer service is dreadful, keep on pushing them

  • moorland2 Moorland (@moorland2) reported from Endon, England

    We stopped paying @virginmedia the£90 for what in fairness was complete crap and have bought a Manhattan @FreeviewTV box and couldn’t be happier. We would never go back to virgin or sky for their overpriced TV service

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

    @virginmedia is there an issue with the internet service in ST4 Stoke on Trent?

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England

    @virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

  • iMeyrick Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Me to the controller after reconnecting to @vatsim for the 5th time in one flight due to the virgin media outage.

  • Rocketman_86 Rocketman_86 (@Rocketman_86) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Your a tech company and doesn't have an email address. Your live chat is laughable and waiting times on the phones is silly. Trying log into the account - forget password the username doesn't exist. The self help is insulting intelligence is the ringer switched on for instance

  • demonbaz666 bazza baz (@demonbaz666) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  • 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.

  • xTrustBandit #bandit4president (@xTrustBandit) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  • CJMontford Connor / MN (@CJMontford) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    Virgin Media is DOG AWFUL

  • Rocketman_86 Rocketman_86 (@Rocketman_86) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes. No human tone. No customer service. The usual have you tried changing the batteries in your phone, could it be your handset etc ( they bought new ones 6/7 week ago thinking it was them) may be they should ask Virgin Media to reimburse them

  • 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

  • Ohrate_Tri 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.

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

    @virginmedia Is anyone answering your phones???!!!!!!. I've been hanging on for 35 minutes. Disgusting customer service.

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

    This is ******* painful @virginmedia were in the middle of a lock down sort yourselves out 🤬

  • marcalmond7 Marc Almond (@marcalmond7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TheHammer180 @virginmedia Best thing to do is give your 30 days notice to cancel and they will call you directly with an offer! Happened to me twice now!

  • pennypentan 🌙Penny🔮 #blacklivesmatter (@pennypentan) reported

    I have a seething hatred for bureaucracy today. Why can’t Virgin Media let me leave without taking an extra payment for the bill I shouldn’t be paying because I don’t require their service from that date. I do get it refunded BUT in a month via cheque during a pandemic 😒

  • LondonMattV 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇳🇿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@LondonMattV) reported

    @Ofcom how are @virginmedia allowed to get away with making it nigh on impossible to cancel your account, spend 50mins on hold then you get cut off #conmen #cancelonline

  • mlcherrypie Megan (@mlcherrypie) reported

    @virginmedia the direct debit and search elsewhere with a different provider, please can someone advise, I am her daughter and want to resolve this issue for her, she and everyone else don’t need the added stress of being told their bills are increasing by more than £50. Thank u

  • emilbordon Don't bother 💭 (@emilbordon) reported

    @MrTopple @virginmedia That’s happened to me before. I try to keep them dangling thinking they’ve got a ‘vulnerable’ in the line and get in a faff asking how much money do they need to fix the problem? **** off for a bit then come back and pretend I have dementia - and try to repeat the same action...

  • Miss_cliffy_28 Cliffy (@Miss_cliffy_28) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been almost a fortnight and it’s gotten worse.Connection drops multiple times a day and a lot of buffering.Only suggestion from Virgin was to pay for a WiFi pod-utterly pointless for those issues and a blatant attempt to up-sell!😡

  • Jacothe8th 8th (@Jacothe8th) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm trying to cancel my service but the helpline number says your too busy to take my call. Is there a live chat option or email address I can use to resolve this?

  • PabloMGonzalez Pablo Gonzalez (@PabloMGonzalez) reported

    @virginmedia PLEASE ANSWER THE PHONE I HAVE SPENT HOURS TRYING TO GET IN TOUCH WITH VIRGIN MEDIA CUSTOMER SERVICES PAUL WEBSTER ACCOUNT 042050710

  • kanwargur Kanwar (@kanwargur) reported

    @virginmedia It's another tough day with no Internet & seems no one @virginmedia really cares about customer service & just been told by customer services manager isn't available to talk.The only option now is to look for another provider .

  • Morton1989 Scott Morton (@Morton1989) reported

    @virginmedia No. I attempted to call and then posted on here. I'm not registering on a forum. Just fix the issue. Send a new Superhub. Why is my bill going up but customer service is at an all time low and I'm not getting what I'm paying for anyway.

  • chinad01169 Carol-Anne 🐾🐱🐾 (@chinad01169) reported

    @virginmedia To be honest I am fed up of calling, texting and emailing about this problem. I need it sorted! It won't accept my email or password so I'm getting nowhere fast. If I withhold payment to I'll be cut off. It's a no win situation for me and money for nothing for @virginmedia
