@virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

@virginmedia moved house today, supposed to have been reconnected but you have a problem you knew about for days. Arrive and tell me not today mate! I’ve gotta go get data from #Vodafone now. After 20 years, it’s like my wife leaving.

@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!!!!

@virginmedia I have a security issue with my router, I cannot login in or change password as somebody else is logged in. I have tried repeatedly over the last few days to contact you. We have 2 vulnerable adults in the house and need to sort this ASAP!

@virginmedia you used to be great, but now not so great. I lose my internet connection far more frequently now. There’s an error when I try and change my package online. I’ve phoned customer service now I have to call tomorrow as your systems are down for changing packages

@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.

@virginmedia I have carried out all the troubleshoot checking that's why I had to phone you which I hate doing because it takes a good while to get through and then you don't get help why didn't she recall me as she did have my number?

Kris Chau
(@krishchau) reported
@virginmedia Hi we’ve just been called twice today by your team and both times when we asked for them to stop calling they automatically hung up. We also raised a complaint via your form a month ago and we haven’t heard anything. This is really unexceptable.

(@MrsBokko) reported
@virginmedia But that’s what I did this morning - using my mobile and being on the phone for 2 hours with no solution. Hey I’ve got an idea - why don’t you get someone who can actually do something to phone me on my mobile. Now that would actually be customer service.

@virginmedia my wifi is down for ‘essential works’ can you update me as to when it will be back up. It was down this morning and then came back after 1.5hrs and is now down again for nearly another hour now. I work from home and it’s effecting my business.

Beverley Bostock
(@MrsBokko) reported
@virginmedia And you don’t think that maybe you could sort that if you spoke to me via DM? This whole conversation has shown how frustrating it is dealing with Virgin Media. Having to repeat myself, no answers to anything, not really thinking of the customer. Are you any better @skytv @bt_uk?

Dawn Ward
(@DawnWar78259930) reported
@virginmedia I’m unsure what people mean about my husband has cut the cable outside our house. We have no services I’m a key worker working from home and they send a very helpful engineer that cannot deal with the problem. Appalling service.

@virginmedia On the search where it tells you the complaint is open. It has the contact details for the customer at the bottom. My phone and email were there but now it’s just phone.

@virginmedia Its not just frustration, I’m losing income because of it. I am tracking the issue but it has said ‘before 5pm’ all day and I would like a more accurate time this work is going to be complete please. And no I’m self employed so it’s my home broadband too.
