  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia They are even worse, whoever your director of customer service is needs removing ASAP You will call me soon enough when the bill goes unpaid again!

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I've done this many times previously and does nothing, the most recent request to switch it from modem mode is so you would process my complaint with ofcom which in turn means I'm without WiFi for 30 days unless standing on the "superhub"

  • Douggy1908 Douggy (@Douggy1908) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia I have issues with everything

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Got the t-shirt, when I last went through it the resolution was for me to leave and not pay my last bill and see you court which was really helpful

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia You won't process it as I am not willing to pay for 30 days of no Internet as the hub has almost zero range even if my line issues are resolved

  • jonnydearlove Jonny Dearlove (@jonnydearlove) reported from Middleton St. George, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Weve just moved house and are trying to install a new router but house connections look out of date. What is the best contact for someone to help with this as may need someone to come out?

  • Core_Legal CoreLegal (@Core_Legal) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Our phone lines and internet are down at our Wakefield office at the moment due to a national Virgin media issue. We have been advised that this is trying to be rectified as soon as possible and when we have an update from them we will update our social media platforms.

  • TerryFBH Terry Chapman or FBH (@TerryFBH) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia I look forward to receiving your offer regarding the complaints that I already made and have still not received a response. I suppose you could consider this a further complaint that your complaints process is inadequate.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Can you improve the stability of your broadband and make massive improvements to your customer services (like actually introduce some sort of customer service)?

  • Douggy1908 Douggy (@Douggy1908) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia No nothing I’ve been thorough it all, already your just ****.

  • Curriepeter1 Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Why are virgin media so crap so slow and keeps buffering every day we pay for a service that’s not fit for the purpose

  • LumbWriter David Lumb Writer (@LumbWriter) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet down? I've checked and you're aware of this issue. I would like it sorted out

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia It's a waste of time tbh, all they do is insist I take the hub out of modem mode and when they do eventually agree you are rubbish and put me through to line faults they either just hang up or the battery on my phone dies

  • Curriepeter1 Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet so slow and buffering every day I’m pay for a service that’s not fit suitable

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No, just continue to ignore me as they have no idea how to fix it

  • TerryFBH Terry Chapman or FBH (@TerryFBH) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia Why does your organisation make it so difficult to raise a complaint? Please advise with whom I may raise this.

  • naomi_sargent_ Naomi Sargent (@naomi_sargent_) reported

    @virginmedia I have just been on hold to your company for 1 hour and 15 mins trying to speak to someone and it has just hung up on me. This is ridiculous. There must be an easier way to cancel my account?!

  • Rikademus rikademus 🤓 (@Rikademus) reported

    @virginmedia having migrated my account to business I’ve found out that I’ve still been paying for residential for 2 years. Spent 1.5 hours on Monday waiting to speak to someone who then told me manager would call me back in 2 hours. no call yet. Please help.

    Update - I'm still on hold trying to cancel my service, over 2 hours since starting the online chat. Am I still in the queue? Is there any way to tell? Does anyone at @virginmedia care?

  • hulberts Steven Hulbert (@hulberts) reported

    @IFAAdviser @virginmedia @virginmedia have you given up on customer service on all platforms and routes now? Asking for a friend

  • Ca7Matt Matt (@Ca7Matt) reported

    @virginmedia can you please tell me why I cannot cancel my contract other than phoning a number that hangs up straight away? You wish to charge me an extortionate amount and it's taken me 3 days to get through to someone on the chat!

  • clairejerram Claire Jerram (@clairejerram) reported

    @virginmedia This tweet is laughable. Phone the number to cancel and it tells you no one is there to speak to you and cuts you off. when I log in to amend package the page doesn’t work. No live chat. my 87year old Nan just wants to talk to someone to sort her bill and can’t

  • philjenkins Phil Jenkins (@philjenkins) reported
