  • SharonBradbury Sharon Bradbury (@SharonBradbury) reported from Haworth, England

    @virginmedia you have an exposed wire that goes down the side of my house and across my back garden so you’re able to provide a service to some houses below. I can’t find any written consent from the previous owners of the house. Major work will be starting soon...

  • jademelia99 Jade (@jademelia99) reported from Cowling, England

    Trying to cancel my @virginmedia contract yet no one will answer the phone or the online chat service. Such bad customer service

  • btownofficial_ officialBtown (@btownofficial_) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia why is it taking so long to sort out the fifa issue it’s *************** everyone who are on VM and want to play futchamps why can’t you give us a time scale on when it should be ready @NepentheZ @Itshaber @Marshall89HD

  • EmilyMc767 Emily (@EmilyMc767) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia It’s a media account, but it was more about the quality of the call. It’s not the way to treat a customer. Thanks

  • saeedahmed0 Saeed Uchiha (@saeedahmed0) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia your internet is awful! I’m not paying for a black box that flashes lights. Fix up

  • djbowers14 D J Bowers (@djbowers14) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Moved from @skytv to @virginmedia after 8 years and being a VIP customer with Sky. Poor service and a huge increase in price. Lost a longstanding customer. Now to try Virgin Media and see how this goes.

  • SamMcCartney Sam McCartney (@SamMcCartney) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @Craig273 @virginmedia No. I just want to cancel sky sports as for £31.75 a month I don’t get the use out of it. I was lied to saying it would affect my package discount. I already get BT sport for free and if Amazon will be streaming more it’s pointless

  • shadiebrfc_ Shadie (@shadiebrfc_) reported from Accrington, England

    Virgin media are so shit!!

  • MATTYB00SH 𝕄𝔸𝕋𝕋𝕐𝔹𝕆𝕆𝕊ℍ (@MATTYB00SH) reported from Burnley, England

    Switching broadband providers from Virgin Media to Sky is proving to be such a bad decision while trying to work from home these last 5 weeks. Multiple connection drops every morning. It's a poor situation when tethering to your phone data is far more reliable. @SkyHelpTeam

  • dazzle961 andrew day (@dazzle961) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia I haven't been able to sign in to my Virginia media for years so complete waste of time Time to sack you lot off

  • FunnyTrickster Vincent Brindle 🔶🌍🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@FunnyTrickster) reported from Burnley, England

    @jmtb18 @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria Issues in Burnley too. It's been up and down like a yoyo. TV box light keeps flashing too.

  • ryanchapmanx RC (@ryanchapmanx) reported from Blackburn, England

    How to waste my time 2019 - @virginmedia sort your customer service out :)

  • ClaretNick Nick (@ClaretNick) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Local fault and down until approx 3pm. It happens too often and its a nightmare for home workers like me.

  • Salma_abdx Salma Khan (@Salma_abdx) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia They have improved but this is a regular issue now. This should be looked into, especially with the prices you charge for the services.

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia you’ve sent me an outrageous bill with £35 in charges that you said you were waiving. Non of your call centres are open (undertandably) I cant get text support & there’s no other help available. You are going to bill me £120 for a £50 service and I can stop you.

  • ClaretNick Nick (@ClaretNick) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia broadband down AGAIN until 3pm today, means ill be working all evening to make up for not being able to do things today!

  • wesleyjodell Wes Odell (@wesleyjodell) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @PaddyTheBaddy @virginmedia Agreed. It’s terrible. Il be changing when my contract is up

  • SharonBradbury Sharon Bradbury (@SharonBradbury) reported from Haworth, England

    @virginmedia We are a customer but this particular cabling just services the houses below.

  • ryanchapmanx RC (@ryanchapmanx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @geewelchx @virginmedia Mate I was on phone for a hour told them to shove their internet up their ass and going elsewhere Lmao their customer service is shocking so I did it back

  • mrtariqmahmood Tariq Mahmood (@mrtariqmahmood) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia lnternet very intermittent. Router fault. But you won't send replacement so I am changing to Vodafone. Sick to death of the awful service I get from Virginmedia.

  • davidmurtz David Murtagh (@davidmurtz) reported

    @virginmedia Yes but cant wait as i cant take time off work. Now I have to wait till wednesday for an evening call with no phone line. Not good when you have someone with needs. I have had to use my mobile for ++ calls to virgin. This is unacceptable customer service for an error by virgin

  • helensiddle changing patterns (@helensiddle) reported

    @virginmedia You have no suitable answers.I have written two letters of complaint. I now have 2 cases open which are not progressing like everything else. As I say VM are a disgrace of a company.

  • CTID78fi Fiona Cameron💙🐝 (@CTID78fi) reported

    @virginmedia I spoke to Custoner Setvices yesterday who told me there's an outage and should be fixed by tomorrow. We'll wait and see.

  • StevieG_81 Stephen Graham (@StevieG_81) reported

    @virginmedia currently on day 78 of no reply to my complaint, any updates please?

  • Kevlar95s Kevlar90s (@Kevlar95s) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there, I havent experienced any drop outs since yesterday. I will be streaming later tonight again so I will keep you updated if the issue occurs again.

  • hoostie101 David Houston (@hoostie101) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia . Your colleagues claim to have no record of my automated agreement that £4.50 increase won’t be applied - why would I make this up when I followed YOUR system of calling virgin and selecting the offer not to apply a £4.50 increase?! I’m over 25 yrs a customer

  • clair1327 clair spenceley (@clair1327) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your help but I tried that yesterday after 1.5 hours on the phone they said tough no

  • rizzlefighter12 rizzleraccoon (@rizzlefighter12) reported

    @virginmedia Surely I can't have that much bad luck when buying 3 different routers

  • TriggerWeb Craig Brown (@TriggerWeb) reported

    @virginmedia I have tried both so many times reset everything a number of times brought a WiFi booster but nothing seems to help. It's pretty much daily it drops and has been for about 2 months now. Paying £130 a month for constant issues

  • mattford9494 Matt Ford (@mattford9494) reported

    @virginmedia Yes we spoke last month about it and agreed new price yet still was charged £163 this month after being charged £193 last month. Been offered a new package but don’t think I’m going to take. I’ll be looking else where for broadband. I’ve been a customer of virgin for 20 years
