-
Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England@virginmedia well done, after over 10 years with you, Virgin Media have sunk to the their lowest level of service and support ever. Roll on November and the end of my contract. Appalling, ignorant, clueless, almost as bad as BT.

Cancellation pending due to total lack of customer service! I have been a customer since day one and never have I exp such a lack of cust care
-
kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia That number is a automated response not a customer service agent and an utter waste of time
-
Smyth Harper 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi
-
Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, EnglandTell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?
-
officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia I have numerous emails of my complaint , all of them paying lip service so to speak .
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

Pete (@PeteNCFC1862) reported@Derek959Derek @RayJones34 All the big 3 providers do it via the Good Things Foundation, apart from EE and BT who have there own arrangements for helping with data poverty. These help people on benefits so official status and a NI number is needed . Virgin Media O2 Vodaphone 3 do it via Databank .
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported@1RavC @virginmedia I’ve been without broadband for 22 days but because they know it’s an outage in our area a @virginmedia engineer has been “on their way” since 27 July. Have pursued every available line of enquiry but no information as to what the ****** is the reason for it not being fixed

Skinny John (@JLTFC) reportedRed button still not working,how about a discount on TNT sports to make up for it. @virginmedia
-
Stevie (@stevenjh1821) reported@colonbarbarian @virginmedia @SkyUK I got a deal of them via email a few years back. Gigabyte sports movies there hole package for £60. Then my bill came in around 190. They tired to get out of it by saying I never accept it. About 6 hours on the phone and they finally said they where.

Captain_red_waffle (@Cptredwaffle) reported@virginmedia 3rd street-wide outage this year in LS6 tonight. Surveyors have confirmed my property is infra-locked with zero Openreach/Altnet access. Virgin holds a total monopoly here, yet the local street infrastructure is failing. Shambolic really, I need this escalating.
