  • 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

  • Shaunelious
    Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve cancelled the visit but why should I have to call back in the first place to cancel a visit I didn’t agree to? I wanted it adding to my initial complaint or raising separately but no one was interested. Cancel my contract

  • Thejollyevfan
    The Jolly EV Fan (now living up in the North) (@Thejollyevfan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia DM me so I can give contact details. Don’t think it would cause a problem but I’d worry about affecting neighbours services or possible future services should we come back to you.

  • 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.

  • AndreaAndymac
    andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No it wasn't. I want to do it when it's convenient for me not virgin media. Thanks for nothing..As well as expecting the customer to do all the work installing the equipment you making the decisions without consultation.Seriously thinking about my 14 day change of mind now.

  • Sarahlw_95
    Sarah-Louise Wilkinson (@Sarahlw_95) reported from New Marske, England

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

    @DanWalk32531219 @virginmedia Just checked at 2am, finally back up again, though poor speeds on a speed test, hopefully will improve by the morning 🤞

  • Shaunelious
    Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve got 16 months left on my current contract but I’d like to cancel it as I have good reason

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia I honestly can't deal with being passed around departments again. The problem is the WiFi is weak upstairs and I'm paying for a product thats not fit for service. You advertise intelligent pods to boost connections, all I want is to order one to resolve the issue.

    ScottPhoto (@smarshallphoto) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @gracedavies I had a dream that I Met a Boy Online was used by Virgin Media in a TV advert, and you got paid a ****-ton of money. Does that count?

    @virginmedia hey hey virgin media wifis down. Your web site says it fixed ????

  • wicks_michael

    @virginmedia what’s going on with your website unable to access via my O2 or Vodafone mobile network. No problems with any other websites 😡

  • LouiseBaldock
    Louise Baldock 💙 (@LouiseBaldock) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    2 calls on landline from Asia, using dummy UK phone numbers, pretending to be from Virgin Media, telling me of a problem with the security of my router. Neither liked it when I told them their mother and father would be deeply ashamed if they knew what their son was doing.

  • ryderboy24
    Paul Ryder (@ryderboy24) reported from Hart, England

    @virginmedia any reason why my broadband is so slow and my bill is so expensive

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

    @virginmedia I need some advice and help regarding an urgent issue yet keep getting blocked at every turn. Real good customer service for a longtime customer. Needs sorting

    Chris #FB #ProEU#Rejoin#BLM#GTTO,NHS 💙 (@citamo) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia @justwearmasks Instead of employing robots in your impossible to contact call centres and ripping of the public for your shareholders, set up a proper system of customer care which is accessible, helpful, considerate and capable of fixing customer problems quickly and competently.

    @dakotafiction @virginmedia Just want an eta of when this will be completed or resolved, can't even watch the firestick! It's obviously an issue looking at the amount of comments on Facebook.

    @Ofcom Still can’t get in contact with customer service today either via webchat and phone calls @virginmedia

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    @MrGee27 @virginmedia I disagree. Having suffered their appalling service too many times over the last six months, I think the senior management should be marched naked through the streets of Basingstoke and pelted with rotten fruit. Every weekend for a year.

  • Nameie82
    Vanessa (@Nameie82) reported

    @virginmedia Terrible customer service, i sent a message via chat confirming my new contract at 19.06 just to get completely ignored for 40 SOLID MINUTES!!!!

  • fayfreddie10
    faye (@fayfreddie10) reported

    @virginmedia @BonesE78 Im also pleased that VM will be held to account finally our BB is terrible were about to report to the ombudsman as VM wont realease us from the contract without a Early disconnection fee yet even they say how bad it is .. go figure.

  • aquanauts2019
    Aquanaut 2025 (@aquanauts2019) reported

    @virginmedia You are going down hill rapidly. Top management need replacing with someone who can sort your company out. I have put off spending an hour plus on the phone to sort out TV pixelation. Also fed up with being fobbed off with secondhand kit. I am out ASAP

  • kestrel89B
    Liam (@kestrel89B) reported

    @BBCNews @virginmedia make it so difficult to actually speak with a human. They love a #bot chat. Always upping the #contract and never actually have a valid reason. #virginmedia

  • Mr_ITellYah
    JFT97 (@Mr_ITellYah) reported

    Fk me this #virgin360 box is horrendous. Why the fk did @virginmedia change from the Tivo box that was perfect. I hatr this 360 box, it’s sooooo ****!!!!! 🤬

    @virginmedia once again issues with your tv channels and broadband dropping this is getting beyond now when your paying £102 month for unreliable services will be looking elsewhere
