  • skulkinloafer The SkulkingLoafer (@skulkinloafer) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been waiting since 15:30 for someone to come back to me via your chat service. You claim it allows me to get on with the rest of my day but it also means it takes me about 3 days of dedicated screen time to get a response?

  • alifahim009 Fahim Ali (@alifahim009) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia It says no issue and so no fix time. There's 4 of us unable to do our jobs and work because of this. Thank you for replying

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    Hi, it's Virgin Media. We've put your service visit on hold while we investigate a network problem affecting your services. We'll update you when this is fixed. 3rd time in a week @virginmedia 3rd time in a week

  • krisminime Kristoffer Tsinontas (@krisminime) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia This texting service is absolutely dire. Random disconnects. New people don’t have the chat history. Being passed between dependents constantly leading to 10+ hour waits. I don’t want to sit on hold on the phone. Can someone DM over Twitter instead?

  • Mrs_H_Clifford ♥ Hayley Clifford ♥ (@Mrs_H_Clifford) reported from Mottram in Longdendale, England

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace rearranged 2 installations now. Been over 2 months now. Excuse after excuse. This is how you treat new customers??!! Disgrace

  • bigghandsltd Jon Rebbeck (@bigghandsltd) reported from Manchester, England

    Dear @virginmedia I contacted you over 9 days ago, you quickly responded to take my complaint off social media but didn’t reply to my response. Your service is diabolical! £55 per month for a poor #broadband service @VirginMediaNews #ripoff @BroadbandCensus

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    Mmm @virginmedia wifi down again for the third day in over a week. Any chance anyone can help here

  • RaivisOlehno Raivis Olehno (@RaivisOlehno) reported from Middleton, England

    Really bad customer service from @virginmedia . Was told that manager will call me within 1 hour. As expected, nobody called. Overcharged me and refusing to refund.

  • beefstock3 colin paul henstock (@beefstock3) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia so I pay £140 per month for your gig 1 broadband yet it’s been slow for last 3 weeks and the last 24 hours I had no internet full stop so how will you resolve this please.

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia going from bad to worse, trouble with new Hub 4, now tried for two days to get engineer to attend and sort out the faulty phone line for an elderly. & vulnerable relative, appallingly bad customer service, all they do is blame Covid. They are a complete disgrace!

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia You cannot try to say that leaving an elderly vulnerable person in their eighties for so long without a telephone is acceptable, nor is trying to make COVID an excuse. @virginmedia are failing in their responsibilities. Hub 3 worked fine Hub 4 will not, poor tech by you?

  • j_roddy Jane (@j_roddy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has replied to me, very poor service to a customer that has been with your company for 15 years

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja (@CurryInTurry) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Virgin TV Go app on Android still down. One week now. This is not good. Missed loads of stuff when out and about. And yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled on multiple devices!

  • DallasCowboysMV Michael Vix (@DallasCowboysMV) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia internet down for me. Your tests keep failing and now it’s telling me you can’t run anymore tests until tomorrow. Engineers visit page crashed as well 😡

  • j_roddy Jane (@j_roddy) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia who do I complain to for poor customer service? The consultant laughed at me, spoke over me, told me to stop talking and then put the phone down on me...I think you need to address your customer service training.

  • cooki40 Tracey Cookson (@cooki40) reported from Sale, England

    @BBCWatchdog @BBCTheOneShow Completely agree @virginmedia are the worst!! After over 4 years they charged me to leave!! Terrible service all round #treatloyaltylikeroyalty

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Yes so I can expect 24 hr loss of service. 2nd time in a week. What remuneration are you offering for this loss of service?

  • twiddlemeister Dave (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    I think @Cosatto_Tweets has to have the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. And I’ve rung Virgin Media a fair few times.

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja (@CurryInTurry) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia It's £10 pm extra. I'm pleased with it just wish you could sort signal out where I live. Hope when swap to 02 your signal will be better

  • annelliott2017 Ann Elliott 💙 (@annelliott2017) reported

    @virginmedia There is an intermittent signal issue Of course I've rebooted the hub. When will you accept there is a problem? I shouldn't have to reboot my hub several times a day or is that now the calibre I need to expect from my internet provider?

  • JNH77 James Harrison (@JNH77) reported

    @virginmedia call 21 on the try to speak to a manager at Virgin Media debacle, told I have to wait 5 DAYS to speak to an Area Manager. I’ve honestly never known anything like this. 5 DAYS! I’m hanging by a thread and no one seems to give a monkeys. Appalling.

  • _SEDill Sara Elizabeth Dill (@_SEDill) reported

    @virginmedia I did that already. It told me the website was not working (like the internet) and to call to book. Which is why I called and they refused to book.

  • WillTaak Will MUFC (@WillTaak) reported

    @virginmedia the broadband has been atrocious for weeks dropping in and out, I’ve tried all the reboots but still the same. You charge a lot of money so I expect good service!

  • _SEDill Sara Elizabeth Dill (@_SEDill) reported

    @virginmedia I’m not posting those details online. I already wasted too much time with online website and telephone agents who provided zero resolution or service/ either you schedule a technician to fix the problem (per what website said) or lose a customer.

  • MATT_WWFC_ROCK MATT WWFC ROCK /\_/\ (@MATT_WWFC_ROCK) reported

    @virginmedia Hey Virgin. What happened to my automatic refund for loss of service?

  • GeorgeManganDub george mangan (@GeorgeManganDub) reported

    @virginmedia customer service number is down!? My Internet is constantly dropping . speed test are dreadful when it does work.service is in a constant state of flux.when I was able to phone it was never followed up ,spent a lot of time on the phone.

  • _SEDill Sara Elizabeth Dill (@_SEDill) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve already filed complaints on this. But given the lack of service despite me doing everything I should have to get a technician out - I’ll be cancelling service and ensuring greater public knows not to ever sign up for virgin.

  • AguiaJoana Joana Águia (@AguiaJoana) reported

    We've been trying to cancel @virginmedia for 2 hours, only to be passed around from team to team and have to repeat the same process again and again. Truly a horrendous customer service experience 🥲 Never again.

  • carlisletom Carlisletom (@carlisletom) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband still not working, need it as I work from home. Virgin Media: the service gets worse and the prices go up
