    @virginmedia please can some one contact me about my unresolved complaint. Genuinely worst service I have aver received, want to cancel my contract as I have lost all confidence in your service. Over 4 hours on the phone in the last week and still no further forward. Thanks

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.

  • allymcgeorge Alvin TX Fernandez (@allymcgeorge) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia hi I need to cancel an engineer appointment but clearly you've made this difficult to do. Any thoughts?

  • PaulCraig24 Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia my Mam has been trying to sort her mobile out today. As she can’t remember her password or security answer, she has been unable to access her account to cancel it. Can you let me know what she can do?

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Hello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.

  • Corney77 Paul Corney (@Corney77) reported from Choppington, England

    @virginmedia 57 mins on a call to be hung up on. Services don’t work correctly and haven’t since Oct. Looking to cancel and no one helping. Disgusting service

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia more disgustingly slow speeds in NE27

  • Nicola_Johnston Nic Johnston 🇺🇦🌻 (@Nicola_Johnston) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia come on. You just have a good idea from the outage earlier today how long this is going to take. I’m trying to WFH with Covid. @bt_uk how long does it take to switch providers?

  • dowlo100 Dowlo (@dowlo100) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia my elderly mother has been trying to contact you for over 3 weeks now to cancel her sub as it has gone up £60 pm. She has been out on hold numerous times and cut off no help on chat etc. her only option now is to cancel the DD as she can’t afford this anymore… help

  • Corney77 Paul Corney (@Corney77) reported from Choppington, England

    @virginmedia disgusting customer service once again. No manage to take a call to help fix another problem with our service. Can someone please contact me to help

  • Rainbowztwit Sarah (@Rainbowztwit) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    .@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia disgusting slow speeds AGAIN in NE27 Cant wait for my contract end

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia wifi speed is disgustingly slow in NE 27

  • KiddEdan Edan Kidd (@KiddEdan) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia two nights in a row the internet goes down, yous are a bag of shite

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris💙 (@Andymorris74) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia Your whole system is down! No access to telephone No access to broadband No access to website No access to status checker What’s going on???

  • didixon74 LadyDi (@didixon74) reported from Blyth, England

    @virginmedia In October agreed new contract, came to install last week got new router and have since cancelled the packages that was agreed. I am now been charged more and getting less services. Tried to resolve last week over the phone & not no further forward so just want to cancel now.

  • Look_North Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

  • PaulCraig24 Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia Ridiculous service from your team in Manilla. Both Joy & Brian telling me I wasn't able to pass security because I couldn't tell them my next bill date as the package/contract is ended even after telling them my normal date and all other DP information

  • TrevorRidley Trid (@TrevorRidley) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @Designer_Ross @SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia Yeah that’s the issue I’ve come across . Slow download speeds but always reported at just above the payment threshold. It’s got worse recently

  • ColegateRachel Ray (@ColegateRachel) reported

    @virginmedia It's not acceptable NOT to be called back. It is also not acceptable to be shouted at by a call handler in Bangladesh when I asked to speak to a manager when my child was having a meltdown due to the third night of NO SERVICE.

  • gjlynham Gareth Lynham (@gjlynham) reported

    @virginmedia No, no service issues on any of the last week or so we've been having problems

  • dollytrot69 Alison Jones (@dollytrot69) reported

    @virginmedia - absolute joke, cancelled plan to end on 30th nov, sent equipment back on 16th nov. Told I HAD to pay final bill for December, which they then said they would refund. Now gotta wait upto 45 days for my money back!!!! Worst service ever🤡🤡🤡

  • Bryan_WHU Bryan (@Bryan_WHU) reported

    @JayTheCaptain @virginmedia Its a joke it really is, I changed from Sky because of the speed so I thought I'd pay extra to get the speed I wanted, couldn't even watch the Rugby on Amazon Prime yesterday as a message came up saying slow Internet connection.

  • suzfairlie25 Suzanne Fairlie (@suzfairlie25) reported

    @virginmedia I've been on the phone all morning and am having a nightmare with customer services. Please help me.
