  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Just raised a new complaint via the website

  • chrisrenahan Chris Renahan (@chrisrenahan) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    On hold to @virginmedia for 15 minutes only to receive a recorded message to say they are too busy and to call back tomorrow morning. Customer service at its best!! 😡

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia yet to be contacted regarding a complaint I made 2 weeks ago. Didn't get the he complaint reference because the women was rude, the second person I spoke to assured me it had been logged and to allow a few days for it to be looked into.

  • AutonomyCounsel Fay Brown #projectsnowball (@AutonomyCounsel) reported from Egglescliffe, England

    ... @virginmedia don't ask us to fix your problems, we're paying you for YOUR SERVICES, not the other way round!

  • Emfozz Emma (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I've already filled the form out online for a complaint

  • Benjiffy Benjamin Clarkson (@Benjiffy) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    So @virginmedia offer 3x the broadband speed for new customers for the same price I've paid for a year, but offer me the same bundle I've had for a year for £5 more, or an extra £23 for the new customer one. Next company to put fibre in my area has a new customer waiting.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @lostinpost DC - perhaps you or your manager should call the CS team on 789 as a mystery customer. You might begin to understand what a liability to the @virginmedia organisation they are.

  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Both crap waste of a poll

  • tastyparmo tastyparmo (@tastyparmo) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed in the mobile outage today. I’ve actually got on with doing some work in the office instead of pissing about on my phone. It’s really not on.

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia Complaint has been raised as the billing team is rude and I have been lied to. They have said I only get the credit if it is done online, this is not what I was told on the telephone. Misleading tactics used to sell! Not happy, if not resolved both accounts will be cancelled!

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It is a constant problem, mobile telephones say they are connected but arent, firesticks dip in and out, Alexa loses connection, ring door bell only 10ft away has very poor connection, it's been poor for a while each time I ring. I am told it will be fixed and it never is

  • Freddiefarkle freddie farkle (@Freddiefarkle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Just seen this ..not really useful I and I suspect thousands of others just want to be able to downgrade or cancel online either by firm filling or live chat (or even quick response emails) .

  • Emfozz Emma (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I asked for extension on bill on the 13th until the 27th, was told that was sorted, woke up this morning and been cut off, advisor told me the notes say I was told until the 21st which I wasnt & opened and closed my complaint because nothing else will be done

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Hello, it's it relation to a package, phone, TV and broadband. I have received no communication what so ever on relation to this since logging the complaint.

  • Freddiefarkle freddie farkle (@Freddiefarkle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @virginmedia It is about time changes to package or cancel etc should be online

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @bt_uk I certainly will, as no matter how many phone calls to @virgin nothing improves, my kids have to use data on their telephones, Virgin Media's Wi-Fi and internet is terrible @richardbranson

  • Freddiefarkle freddie farkle (@Freddiefarkle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I simply want to be able to reduce my cost substantially due to poor change in circumstances online rather than Face long long waiting to chat on a phone .. and online I can double check read anything that's been suggested before proceeding

  • Danielson_1991 Daniel Thompson (@Danielson_1991) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, appears there's issues with all services until at least 1255 this afternoon

  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @RacingTV @EpsomRacecourse Would love to but you never do offers for virgin media and althyquality is good on phone/I-pad not the same as watching on tv. Please please do this on virgin media too 🙏🙏

  • PriceKeri Keri Price (@PriceKeri) reported

    @virginmedia The install completed on 5th of August. SIM cut off on 5th September. Still not reconnected despite assurances it would take 3-5 days. Customer services not taking this seriously. No managers have called. No compensation. This month’s bill is £145 for a week cut off from mobile.

  • Dee_Har1762 Dee H 💙 (@Dee_Har1762) reported

    @virginmedia landline not working in Nottingham area, status test says no problems

  • fawad_iftikhar Fawad Iftikhar (@fawad_iftikhar) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John, the call was about booking an engineer for broadband connection disruption yesterday throughout the day. There is slow speed and intermittent issues since i have moved the router. Can you have someone reach out to me to get this sorted asap? been like that for weeks now

  • AndrewCHarries Andrew Harries. As Flies to Wanton Boys are we.. (@AndrewCHarries) reported

    @virginmedia called you you said you would fix it. you texted me last night to say it couldn't be fixed. I called you and was told off by staff for being rather cross and told this was all my fault and that the engineer would never have said that (he did.)

  • JamieEngineer Jamie_ideal_engineer (@JamieEngineer) reported

    @virginmedia Majority of places it’s been really poor lately. Like now, I currently only have 2 bars.

  • ProJect_GT82 ProJect ™ 🇬🇧 (@ProJect_GT82) reported

    @Jukeyz Li , speak to virgin media and see if your areas can upgrade to 1Gig service. New Docsis 3.1 tech will reduce your ping quite dramatically. 👍🏻

  • BenjaminButson Benjamin Butson (@BenjaminButson) reported

    @virginmedia Still have the issue

  • lakesidephyserg jason (@lakesidephyserg) reported

    @virginmedia Email has been down since 4am on Fri 10th Sept in LN6 postcode. When is this going to be rectified please?

  • BigALzz Alan (@BigALzz) reported

    @virginmedia Nope. Keeps saying no issues but upload speed is very low and connection keeps dropping. It’s definitely not my end, I’ve checked and rebooted everything. When I run the test on Virgin website keeps stopping saying error.

  • EmmaS_1989 Emma (@EmmaS_1989) reported

    @virginmedia Your telephone advisors are extremely rude, especially the last person we have just spoken to. I’d like it if you could help us out with making a formal complaint.
