    Cheers @SkyUK for ruining your app. Bloody stupid. I’m beginning to hate sky. I think I’ll check out @virginmedia instead

    @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK @virginmedia Load of crap. Removed a good application and replaced it with utter crap. Nice move Sky.

    Stu (@P__TheLetter) reported from Bargoed, Wales

    @virginmedia Really need to speak with someone to order a replacement SIM card. Phone lines say customer service is closed & so does the local store phone number. Live chat is taking hours.

    @virginmedia you sent the wrong engineer team to fix our severed cable yesterday and the team today didn't turn up!! Day 4 without connection tomorrow and your customer services just hung up on me! What is going on?

  • partywareham
    Sarah Wareham (@partywareham) reported from Blackwood, Wales

    @EmilyEvaGill @virginmedia So has mine with BT, they offered me £20 as an apology but it’s not an apology it’s a contractual obligation! Paying a fortune for a non existent service! Hopefully will be fixed tomorrow

    @BackOnTrack__ @richardbranson @MailOnline @virginmedia You need to speak to @iestyntdavies about this. He had massive problems last week.

    Hello @virginmedia. What ******** is going on in the CF postcode?? No phone, internet or TV. Your website says everything is okay. It clearly isn’t.

  • ACheeke

    @playzone1000 @virginmedia Had exactly the same experience! Has to be the worst customer service experience ever!

  • CaswellAlun
    Rhys Caswell (@CaswellAlun) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    Virgin media are an absolute disgrace, talk about poor customer service. My wife has been over 50mins on the phone just trying to sort out a new hub as we upgrade to the box last month, got sold a new package and then best thing is the hub is to old to run what we need.

    Worst customer service award 2020 goes to @virginmedia 🥳 congratulations on being a bunch of absolute jokes!

    @virginmedia I have DMed about an issue: please reply to me. And quickly so I don’t end up with 10 scam artist accounts replying to this.

  • saniyusuf
    Sani Yusuf (@saniyusuf) reported

    @virginmedia Internet not working and router too

  • 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😡

  • davettoo

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Yeah imagine getting shafted for being a loyal customer

    @virginmedia @gwfvrowell Another Gary here. I agree. By far the worst company ever.

  • joanna_ayliffe
    Joanna Ayliffe (@joanna_ayliffe) reported

    @virginmedia how do you manage to charge me for a service you barely provided but won't let me bill you £25 for an engineer who did not arrive between 8 and 12 on the day in question?

  • DymDymok
    Dmitriy Lobov (@DymDymok) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt 18 years? Man, has it never occured to you to check what alternative were?

  • octoexp490
    krono aka a dogtor in 2 years (@octoexp490) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Telecom contracts in this country don't make any sense to me. Anywhere else in the world, the more loyal you are to the operator, the better deals they give you to keep you as a customer.

  • o00525600
    NEVER give up. (@o00525600) reported

    @TheMandyGall @ElectricIreland virgin media has threatened me with collecting heavies if I don't pay for service I never got I tried and tried to tell them I was moving but couldn't get to talk to anyone eventually in March I did but they didn't want to know my bill then was 37 e,now it's 157 e on and on on on

  • HoMcArdle
    Craig McArdle (@HoMcArdle) reported

    @LutzSchueler How about just getting one service that works @virginmedia Profit over customers. No service + charging customers = instant profit. Well done you
