    @virginmedia fully and reasonably, the agent response was "oh okay" and put the phone down. How do I make a formal complaint about the atrocious service you guys offer? (2/2)

    @virginmedia is it normal practice for your employees to shout at customers down the phone and then hang up?

  • 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.

    Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia An area outage with something your end caused my issue (no bband) to flag as being resolved at your end. That was not the case in slightest (still without bband) and the tech appt this morning being cancelled but no notification

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

    @virginmedia I’m using a lot of data trying to sort this out as no internet. I feel like I’m going mad. Your company says ask us for help during these difficult times yet I have and have been treat really shabbily. I’m so frustrated and angry please help me

  • werbedoyle
    gary doyle (@werbedoyle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

  • gaznolan
    Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia So when does that happen and why was this not pointed out at any time in the cancellation process. Now I'm not a customer how do I lodge a formal complaint please?

  • MrTaylorM
    BoroMike (@MrTaylorM) reported from New Marske, England

    Looks like #virginmedia is down again in New Marske. If it’s preventative maintenance they should tell us.

  • mark770
    Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia My issue is bband been down since Thursday night and Friday a tech visit for this morning between 8 and 12. Due to an outage at your end, the visit was incorrectly cancelled as your records showed as "now fixed". We didn't find this until contacting yourselves after 12 today

  • rachsclarke
    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia You realise we’ve already missed 35 minutes of this 90 minute match? Are you going to be refunding customers due to your inconsistent service

  • Jim_Gardner_
    Jim Gardner 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@Jim_Gardner_) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @SimonMarksFSN Ironically it's the only streaming service of the latest to launch I considered subscribing to here in the UK because CNN removed itself from Sky and Virgin Media when Warner announced its own streaming platform. I hope it now comes back, although it never left LG's WebOS IPTV.

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

  • gaznolan
    Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia any chance we'll get reimbursed for the service outage in the TS20 postcode? 2 days we've had a fault

  • Johnsonator85
    Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Hi @O2 @virginmedia have all todays allocated tickets for @peterkay_co_uk been sold for today? Been waiting ages - staring at a white screen…. Communication would really help please?

  • john_watson_
    𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    Our broadband in TS10 has been down all day, the status page says no issues, but self test says there is no connection @virginmedia - is this related to the issues at Roseberry Square, Redcar, and when will it be resolved. So far no communication from you!

    Hey @virginmedia what's your support email address in the UK? Your website is absolutely useless in that regard

    @virginmedia is there an issue in Ng16 area? If it rains, no internet, if it’s sunny, no internet. Happens every year.

  • nickpaulroper1
    Nick Roper⚒️#SBOUT (@nickpaulroper1) reported

    @Grahamthecabbie @virginmedia We had these issues for years and have now ditched them. Awful company, even worse customer service. Hidden rises constantly. Now with BT Openreach. Very happy, like chalk and cheese.

  • samhain1
    Stewart C (@samhain1) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Insurance market been doing this for years as we know. There will always be a % of the customer base that won’t be diligent about subs and will automatically move to the new rate without even knowing. They expect other customers to leave knowing they’ll be back again in future

  • paulmc_96
    Paul McKigen (@paulmc_96) reported

    @virginmedia why is it every week the service goes down. Becoming a joke

  • itstrisha_innit
    F’real (@itstrisha_innit) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Call them and threaten to leave. The Retention/Sales Team will cut you a deal. But don’t get sucked into taking the VM movie bundle - the movies they offer are crap.

  • irons1de1
    irons1de (@irons1de1) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Having the same issue with @virginmedia I just have the internet with them and they have just doubled my price and won’t offer anything where as a new customer can get the same deal for just over £20 it’s disgusting no incentive to remain a customer with them

  • happyhexer
    Ellen Brockaway (@happyhexer) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Ughh. What I likely have to look forward to. I informed @Xfinity of my sister's death, trying to cancel her service. Ended up hanging up on them. Good luck trying to recoup costs if they don't end service. I'm not on the account & am not legally responsible.

  • honestdan07
    HonestDan (@honestdan07) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Put a complaint of harassment and as executor you have suffered additional upset and stress from the constant emails or letters and that you had correctly notified them some time ago. Also make a complaint to ofcom and trading standards.
