faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Woolhampton, England@virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia moved house today supposed to have been reconnected. You have a problem, known about for days but arrive and say not today mate! I gotta go to Vodafone now for data. After 20 years, it’s like my wife left me...

John Richards (@Johnty14) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia next to useless support over the last 2 days trying to explain to your technical department what packet loss is! In the 40 mins it takes, the packet loss and speed has gone back to normal.

The HWC (@Hello_HWC) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia Slow speed Constantly dropping service Not able to connect devices, TV and computers To be fair your engineer was the best bit! The rest was an absolute shambles. It’s all in a complaint I have through on your website to the resolution team...
-
Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.
-
Mechelle Penny (@Simmba88) reported from Basingstoke, England@ceryswebb @virginmedia Their customer service is the absolute worst
-

Jon Bond (@JobbyOvy) reported from Basingstoke, EnglandPhoned @virginmedia tonight to cancel, as my price was going to £74 from £55 a month. Best they could offer was £60 a month even though as a new customer it is currently £50 a month! I was told if they offered their current customers those prices, they’d go out of business...
-
Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, EnglandWhat's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.
-
Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.
-
Richard Conway (@richcon98) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!
-
Jim Millen (@jim_millen) reported from Thatcham, EnglandWent to @virginmedia online support last night - ran their automated test tool & identified a problem somewhere our end. Offered to request an engineer visit...
-
Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia perhaps you should be making the effort to get me to stay as a customer. Hopefully @SkyHelpTeam will be able to offer me something more cost effective

Jane (@i96jms) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia If you forgot your pin your bank would send a replacement through the post. Please arrange for a way to cancel this account that does not cause further distress.

taree-ru (@taree_ru) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia @VisionExpress keep sending my now 4 years deceased mother reminders for her eye test. This is despite meinforming them by calling them, attending a store in person and returning to sender the mail. Horrible reminders which are so unnecessary. Well done for calling virgin out.
-
Endeavour (@itsendeavour) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia I had this trouble with British Gas. Absolutely appalling customer service from them as well. I still get automated emails to her email even after closing her account 3 years ago. These big companies are utterly useless.
-
Ed61 (@Ed6114) reported@virginmedia and how do I get rid of the awful self promotion advert that is constantly banging on about how good V360 is? It start when the box powers up and then when I start browsing something to watch, it moves to the bottom right hand corner.
-
Urm (@erm2urm) reported@virginmedia I've been waiting for 35 mins for somebody to answer my call. VM CS is awful. I can't log into my account. I get a message to enter my email. I do this. I get sent and email. I click on the link and it starts the same process again. Can somebody please HELP!!

haggard girl 🏳️⚧️ (@fffoceania) reportedVirgin media is so bad it took me turning my phone wifi off and on again 3 times and resetting soundcloud twice just to put on a song
-
Stewie (@Dudley1976) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia @skytv are just as bad. My mum was recently trying to cancel the contract in the name of my recently passed father. It was when they asked to speak to the bill payer that the formal complaint was made…
-
Mark Logan | Ecommerce Consultant (@mlogandigital) reportedSo you get a bill from @virginmedia to say your bill is doubling from tomorrow but can't get in touch with anyone on support to sort it out. @skytv just come and take my money
-
Old Motherduck (@Old_Motherduck) reported@virginmedia @JamieGBarry maybe you should make that clear from the beginning and treat loyal customers as first time customers
-
Kirstie (@Kirstiefk) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia Geez is this still happening? I had this problem with them when my dad died at the end of 2015 and had hoped it was a one off. They even phoned and asked to speak to my dad (despite me being PofA during life) for his permission to deal with me. I hope you get sorted quickly

Rebecca Réva (@AvaniEbony666) reported@virginmedia WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOUR BLOODY COMPANY POLICIES AND VALUES?? Or doesn't that Schmitt system no longer concern you that your performances are going down ever so quickly and IM READY to leave WITHOUT PAYING any EXIT FEE
