    @virginmedia In the orders and appointments section it says there are none. The text I have received confirming the appointment and threatening me with a £25 fine is different to the one offered to me by your customer services.

    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  • thechilledpanda
    Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported from Bramhall, England

    @virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.

    @eshelm @simonnread @virginmedia Worst people I’ve ever worked for By a distance

  • GoaterBilly
    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.

  • _AdamGardiner
    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.

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

    @bazza141 @virginhelp @virginmedia Join the club. I spent over 1hr 30 mins trying to get a issue resolved . I kept getting through to their over-seas call centres . It took almost 20 call re-tries to get through to a young lady over in Newcastle 😳😞. It's rediculous that they got call centres in 17 countries.

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • SiManM20
    Simon Manning 🇪🇺 #FBPE (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to your customer service team on 2nd January who advised all issues had been resolved and my sim card was being sent out by royal mail delivery. Even with any postal delays out of your control it seems odd that it hasn't arrived.

    Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • he_tompkins
    Hannah Tompkins (@he_tompkins) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi there, I was told I would receive my replacement broadband by today and still no indication of when it’s going to arrive. Any help?

  • birdflu_7
    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.

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  • birdflu_7
    officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, 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 🤯

    @virginmedia Loss of service AGAIN in WA7 4YL area. This is becoming a regular occurrence. £154 per month and have to suffer outages on what now seems to be a regular basis.

  • graeme1878
    Graeme (@graeme1878) reported

    @virginmedia are you willing to just let a customer of 9 years go so easily like that or was it half arsed by your staff member that all he could do was the most basic and not even try and get my partner to stay with yourselves.

  • liamsimo95
    liam (@liamsimo95) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @bt_uk what broadband services do you offer to new customers? As @virginmedia broadband is **** and repeatedly disappoint all customers, surely won’t be too hard to provide a decent service rather than mediocrity

    @ArrEssVeeTwin @jen_moxon @virginmedia I only signed up last year as Virgin had & still do, the fastest broadband in area & I needed to handle the data, I knew this day would come though with their customer services.

  • lennylaw
    Percival Merganser (@lennylaw) reported

    People moan about @virginmedia but I’ve had great service from their phone guys. Once you’ve found the number.. Internet/wifi been glitching. Indian lad, super helpful, checked and diagnosed in minutes, engineer coming tomorrow, new upgraded router arriving Monday.

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    A new Disney Dreamlight Valley free update usually takes about 20 mins total. Switch is currently estimating 4 hours & 20 mins and rising. What the heck? So far, provided a new router I didn't need, have had outages I didn't previously have & now super slow speed @virginmedia

    @virginmedia 20+ years of being with you and I'm leaving as you want to charge me nearly 50% more than a new customer, go figure
