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 .
-
kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia No as you person on 150 said you do not have a customer service that I could talk too. Your engineer said it was a fault at the box in street so I don’t know when it is fixed. But it’s not improve in the last month
-
officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England@MartinSLewis I'm not sure if you can help me but here goes , in August I ended my contract with @virginmedia & to cut a long story short they still owe me £87 .+ They sent me a cheque in my maiden name so I returned it with a second copy of my marriage cert same as in 2015 1.
-
Sam (@Samuel_J_Mc) reported from Timperley, England@virginmedia customer service is so ****. They just transfer you round to different departments
-
Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia I will. 2nd week in and these kind of issues is worrying considering my partner needs a connection to work from home. How long do I have to switch providers is it 30 days?
-
SLT4K 👨🏻💻 🇬🇧 (@Slt4K) reported from Urmston, England@virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)
-
Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported from Salford, England@virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).
-
UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, EnglandWith the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless
-
Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England@nrgloz @virginmedia Your paying 75% of what we are for 35% of the d/speed there. Neighbour has just switched to Brsk - it’s full #fttp so 1Gb both up/down rather than the 52Mb UL Virgin offer via DOCSIS. £40pm
-
Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

Brett Downes (@tterbsenwod) reported@virginmedia your companies customer service is an absolute disgrace. I have 5 outstanding complaints with you, and each time you sent some kind of automated response saying all been sorted!
-
Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported@virginmedia First thing this morning you said the outage in my area (22) would continue for another week,then another message saying it would be fixed today, and now a message saying it'll be a week again. Is there a playbook you guys are using to wind up its customers?
-
One day you'll see the truth (@therealsambo121) reported@virginmedia sooooo your useless customer service were supposed to phone me today help me with a direct debit! But as usual your customer service is a total let down
-
Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported. @virginmedia are the most useless, care-less, let down of a company in existence. If you are considering going with them for broadband. Please don’t. Their technicians do half a job, cancel a thousand times and their customer support is outsourced to some foreign country.
-
Ben Eaton (@BenEato46743114) reported@virginmedia Just cancelled my broadband because you want £33 for m350 but new customers get m500 for £24 how does that work been with you for nearly ten years but a new customer gets a better deal 👍.
-
Garry (@paragaz) reported from Streetly, England@virginmedia hey. I am trying to speak to someone about my account but turns out nobody recognises my account number. Can you PM me to organise calling me please. I've tried the text message service
-

Stewart Neilson ⚒ 🇬🇧 (@HaveringHammer) reportedI’ve just been given Netflix ( I know I’m late to getting it ) by VirginMedia. The first show I’ve started watching is Breaking Bad ( I know I’m late to watching that too ) My question is should I stick with it as I’m 3 shows in and not sure what all the fuss was about yet?
