    @virginmedia Having a hard time maintaining why I’ve remained so loyal. I’ve been going through a little bad time and ask for help as you publicise only to be treat like a third class citizen. Not happy my problem needs sorting today

  • Ben_McBean
    You're a cantaloupe ÂûDHD (@Ben_McBean) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia I switched it off at the mains at 13:00. Still not working. Also received a vishing message from a fake VM account about these messages.

  • Loulameg
    Louise Donaldson (@Loulameg) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    Having an absolute nightmare with @virginmedia on the phone since Thursday and still no further forward, the staff literally just tell you anything to get you off the phone. Anyone know how I make an official complaint? We’ve had no services for days now

  • SiClayton
    Simon Clayton (@SiClayton) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Hi @02 @virginmedia has all the allocated of @peterkay_co_uk tickets been sold for today? Been waiting ages - staring at a white screen…. Communication would really help please?

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    @virginmedia It's been going on for 8 weeks. I'm going to document this all and put it online for everyone to see how poor you have been. It's so stressful and you are doing nothing to help

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

    @virginmedia Media, I want to cancel

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

    @virginmedia Red button for virgin, which I know isn’t true as I’ve used it before. I asked to raise complaints several times to which they just ignored before eventually saying they would raise one. He then said it was raised. Never known a complaint raised without someone describing it…

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

    @virginmedia No estimated fix time. Just tells me there is a problem in my area which is affecting my service. I already know that.

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

    @virginmedia great service NOT! Called yesterday to disconnect and was blatantly given incorrect information by the chat agent. Had a call today from another retention agent asking how he could resolve the issues so I explained what happened. (1/2)

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

    @virginmedia again I have to go through social media to contact your company. I need to speak with a human regarding your poor customer service

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

    @virginmedia as per usual the red button not working AGAIN the amount I pay you each month should provide me with a much much better service than this. What are you doing??????

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

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

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

    @virginmedia Aaarrrggghhh, red button not working on Sky Sports tonight any idea why?

  • 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.

  • 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.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

  • Si_Vargeson
    Simon Vargeson (@Si_Vargeson) reported

    @virginmedia is it usual practice to delay installations without communicating to your new customers? You’ve currently missed 2 instal dates and no comms to let me know to avoid waiting at home for your arrival…. Customer service seem to be unable to provide any detail too😡

  • NothingLane
    Richard Bignell (@NothingLane) reported

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia Nope, but much the same story. Dumped useless Virgin years ago. Now with @zeninternet. Once you start a contract, the price NEVER increases. They're a UK company, so absolutely no overseas call centres and the tech service has been first class.

  • mcrobgi
    BlueTickBob❌ (@mcrobgi) reported

    @virginmedia thanks for wasting more of my time. You don’t answer the phones, your chat bot repeats itself, you promise to call me at an agreed time & don’t bother ringing me !! Great customer service!!

  • Elycat
    Elaine McIntyre (@Elycat) reported

    Is @virginmedia down in G40 area? Been without internet now for 2hours @status_is_down

  • jpk44092120
    jpk (@jpk44092120) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt I’ve just left them for exactly the same reason. My contract had ended and they upped my package by £79 and said they couldn’t do it cheaper but new customers were the same price as my old one. No loyalty to a long standing customer

  • nuts_and_bolts_
    Mark Williams (@nuts_and_bolts_) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Can you get Toob in your area? Price and customer service is pretty good, yet to have an issue

  • Edeaulx
    Adrian Weale (@Edeaulx) reported

    I would contact you directly @virginmedia but your 'My Virgin Media' website won't allow me to sign in. I assume that this kind of obstructiveness is what got you fined so lavishly by @Ofcom

  • Deaks_uk
    John deakins (@Deaks_uk) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to get hold of someone to help but I can’t get any support

  • JJMootts
    Moots (@JJMootts) reported

    I swear @virginmedia have to be the most frustrating company to deal with ever!! Absolutely useless customer service.

  • ape_steinUK
    Jackson Lamb’s Coat (@ape_steinUK) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Same here, I was paying £36 for 1GB, end of contract price is £82 and “best” renewal price is £42 IF I take an O2 sim for another fiver a month. Customer price: £26.99 a month. Crooks.
