    @virginmedia you really need more staff. I cannot get through to your retention team. I have wasted hours over different days. God awful waiting times. No updates whatsoever.

  • jimmyhadman James Hadman (@jimmyhadman) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @tescomobile hi guys, really unhappy with service earlier today - exchanges @Tesco Clubcard vouchers to use towards a new Phone for my son, but now I’ve been told I can’t use the vouchers towards a purchase, only deduct from my own bill. @virginmedia here I come!

  • adam_mcclelland Adam McClelland (@adam_mcclelland) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    Hazel from customer relations at @virginmedia. Rude. Obstructive and defensive! Scare mongering into staying with Virgin! Glad I called instead of my 78yr old grandfather!

  • nickeyley Eee-lee (@nickeyley) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia You can't even get my name right. It literally says it on my account. Absolutely basic customer service and you can't even do that properly. Shit company with shit service and useless customer support.

  • DannyTaylorDT Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @AndyP5693 @ConnorBagan @virginmedia Yeah I checked it, problem in the area, estimated fix by 15:00 💩

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It’s not internet related. If it was the all my other devices would have an issue. Tried on numerous occasions to reset the router but it hasn’t fixed the problem. It’s going to need an engineer.

  • DannyTaylorDT Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    After winning 37/37 in the Newcastle #ePL across the groups and the playoffs, I lose in the semi finals and won’t be at the grand final. Hard to describe the conditions I’ve just had to play in due to EA’s issue with Virgin Media, but this really has broken me

  • ami9463 Ami (@ami9463) reported from Egglescliffe, England

    @virginmedia I need help!!!!

    Spend a fortune every month for @virginmedia tv and sky, BT sport and guess what somebody has sold most the games in December to amazon prime , absolutely disgraceful , thanks @virginmedia one unhappy customer. Leaving in the morning , you can count on it. What am I paying for!

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

    @virginmedia It was WiFi only, service status wasn't showing any issue, as mentioned, it has appeared to of resolved itself now.

  • EnticknapHolly Holly, like the tree (@EnticknapHolly) reported from Skelton and Brotton, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria I was told it would be delivered today. I got the yodel app, which has informed me its tomorrow. Not good, when I actually called up Virgin to cancel my contract. Its not the best way to keep a customer whose on the edge of leaving you.

  • DannyTaylorDT Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @DrussSkilgannon Don’t know mate I didn’t play after what happened in the qualifier. It’s a problem between EA and Virgin Media apparently

  • Spock_Thornaby Spock Thornaby🖖 (@Spock_Thornaby) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @JustJanety @virginmedia I’m gong to cancel them st home and with family for the rubbish attitude.

  • theJamesWillson James Willson (@theJamesWillson) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia ...just received a letter from VM saying there is nothing they can do re the Virgin TV Go app not working...and here's me thinking it was part of my deal🤔

  • LiamMDrake Drake (@LiamMDrake) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia are you going to fix this issue surrounding the routers blocking access to Fifa / EA sports

  • Spock_Thornaby Spock Thornaby🖖 (@Spock_Thornaby) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @JustJanety @virginmedia They have been simply rude and unpleasant. We have been good loyal customers since NTL. We are off now. Disgusted,

  • Digital_Den15 Den Butler (@Digital_Den15) reported from Egglescliffe, England

    @virginmedia Except if your an existing customer, then it's still £68 a month.

  • allymcgeorge Alvin TX Fernandez (@allymcgeorge) reported

    @virginmedia No. I was hoping you could help out with that

  • simondep Injusa06 (@simondep) reported

  • MrsReynolds3816 Miriam Reynolds MCCT (@MrsReynolds3816) reported

    @virginmedia I’m trying to establish why the bill that I would be told on 20 February would be £54 is not £54. Talking to the help desk was like talking to a brick wall!!

  • eet83 Erran EmmanuelThomas (@eet83) reported

    @virginmedia Installation was supposed to be March 14th, got cancelled due to engineers not having 75-meter fibre cable 🤷🏾to connect my premises to the network. No sign of the engineers to date with one working day left. Is this install going to happen? 🤔#Virginmedia

    @virginmedia Tried this and it didn't work, still getting cut outs everyday, can't get thru on customer service numbers, virgin is a absolute joke

  • ffaestheticsltd Forever Flawless Aesthetics Ltd (@ffaestheticsltd) reported

    @virginmedia still waiting for you to come back to me. Your engineers have cut through my existing cable without realising. I have tried to get it resolved and have been told a complaint has been logged. I want it to be dealt with and fixed, not logged for feedback. I
