-
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?
-
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.
-
Stephen Mackenzie (@StevomacMUFC) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England@virginmedia Hi, I’m trying to raise a complaint online but I’m not receiving any acknowledgment. Is there another way I can raise my complaint? Thanks
-
Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England@virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.
-
jimmy (@jimmysteamboat) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Can you confirm if service is down in the M4 Manchester postcode? Us and Neighbours wifi not working when we are WFH!
-
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.
-
Smyth Harper 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England@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.
-
Dave Garside🇺🇦🇬🇧❤️ (@DaveGarside) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia No. Tv is fine. I can access VOD such as Amazon Prime & Youtube no problem
-
Rachael Stafford (@rachaelstafford) reported from Salford, England@virginmedia shocking service from you today, I booked an engineer visit for my mum supposed to come today between 12-4 nobody came she’s since called and been told it was a phone call not a visit but still nobody had called. She’s now got to wait till Tuesday for a visit 😠
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?
-
Martin Moscrop 🎺 (@martinmoscrop) reported from Salford, England@LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.
-
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?
-
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 🤯
-
(っ◔◡◔)っ 💛 ɪɢɢʏ ᴘᴜᴘ 🧡 🔜 Doggy Weekend 🐶 (@IggyPup7) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England@PowerBoar @virginmedia @virginhelp they are as bad unfortunately just changed shape … still same poor up to 20wifi devices connection. and they giving customers their hubs they received from others who returned them regardless faulty or not … it’s terrible 😣
-
Nadeem (@nadeem030986) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia we having issues with our phone line at home called @virginmedia to book an engineer for a home visit after 1hr 20min @virginmedia put the phone down thank you 🤬😡😡😡
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia Have you just stopped responding now? Having some system issues?
-
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
-
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 SOGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?
-
Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia Submitting a complaint will probably result in an apology at best. Given I pay £1k per annum for an unreliable service it’s time to look for an alternative provider who can offer a more satisfactory customer experience
-
Kelly Walsh (@Kellywalsh758) reported from Stockport, England@virginmedia Iv asked lots of questions that have gotten me no where. To be hung up on over & over. They gave me a date of 17th December for it to have it installed no reasons as to why nothing explained I just think it’s a joke and the costumer service is dreadful. To have to wait 6 weeks!!

-
Jamboy (@briamjam) reportedJust to.let you know I have successfully agreed a new contract with you happy with the result and over-the-years haven't had any major issues,touch wood of course @virginmedia
-
johngunn (@johngunn2) reported@virginmedia @CliveR39 The last time I checked a couple of days ago it gave an estimated fix of 28th August. Which considering it’s been at least a week since it went down is a considerable length of time to not receive the service we’re paying for.
-
Lee (@LeeDeacy90) reported@virginmedia who in their right mind decided that a software update was a good idea on the weekend the Premier League launches. Literally had no issue with my Sky or Sky+ yet you choose to do a update on the weekend the football launches. Absolutely shambolic decision making.
-
Richard Geraint Evans (@RGE_Art) reported@Strudlehoffer @JFab208 @virginmedia I really do feel your pain. Are there any companies out there that even pretend to offer acceptable customer service?
-
Andy Nicholls 🫧⚒️✝️ (@andy_nicks60) reportedWell @virginmedia certainly have great customer service people that just feed you absolute lies about not stocking 360 boxes anymore then when they lose the argument they say you can’t have one because you’re not a new customer, and promptly end the conversation.
-
Alan Owen (@AlanOwen1947) reported@JFab208 @virginmedia 502 and 503 plus a couple of movie channels are pixalating all the time and unwatchable,says trying to fix!! and that was weeks ago, paying £105 a month for crap service
-
Ryan Ricardo Dunkley (@ryanricardo76) reportedVirgin media absolutely terrible
-
Nicola James (@nicolajames38) reported@virginmedia I have reported 7 times now I need damaged cable burying under hardcore as having tarmac being laid tomorrow and still the Indian call centre cannot sort out my problem!!!! Unreal and past a joke now - customer service is shocking and I want a call back from England
