  • paulhulse83 Paul Hulse (@paulhulse83) reported from Sale, England

    Evening @virginmedia over the past month I have been reporting issues with your service as you will see through tweets! However, today I learn that you’ve issued my bill and also charging me for last month - when it HAS been paid! I have the confirmation of payment with me!

  • itsonlyme72 Louise V (@itsonlyme72) reported from Salford, England

    @donzy77 @virginmedia You would think as loyal customers we would get better deals. Please let me know if you find a better service elsewhere.

  • Samueltennant Sam Tennant (@Samueltennant) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia VERY happy customer for eight years, only disconnecting as not available and new address but the last 24hrs have been a nightmare. The offshore call centres simply seem to have no facility to understand something like this which is off script. 1/2

  • marshymoodle Karen Marshall (@marshymoodle) reported from Rochdale, England

    Loyalty gets you nowhere these days! Spoke to #virginmedia trying to get my massive bill down get offered £4 a month, thanks 👍 only given them my money for the last 15 years 😡

  • louise_woodman Louise Woodman (@louise_woodman) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia No, just that it will be on and off until the 30th. I am not asking for ‘fault free’ just some acceptance that we are paying a lot of money for a service we are not getting and paying extra for 3G. The attitude from virgin is it’s ok because you are getting it sometimes!

  • jjplt jo-ann murray (@jjplt) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia 6 installations date , no enigneer turns no phone calls of apology or text make a complaint still waiting for a call back - in the space of 48 hours have just been given 3 new installation dates and no one can explain to me wtf virgin you are a load of 💩

  • ConradBetton Conrad Betton (@ConradBetton) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia In the last 4 weeks I can’t get any internet if more than a 5m away from hub/extender. Shows and full signal strength. Your technical support team need to send me at least 1 more extender.

    Loyalty gets you nowhere these days! Spoke to @virginmedia trying to get my massive bill down get offered £4 a month, thanks 👍 only given them my money for the last 15 years 😡

  • SweeneySweeney1 lynn sweeney (@SweeneySweeney1) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia I have been left with 4 holes in 2 rooms in my house, all made by an incompetent member of your team. I want my complaint resolving asap and compensation for the aesthetic damage to my property, and the time I have wasted trying to get this whole debacle resolved 2/2

  • XboxE3Fans Xbox E3 Fans 🎮 (@XboxE3Fans) reported from Manchester, England

    @aravelle @virginmedia Yikes, that sucks :( I know they’re doing a lot of new areas in and around Manchester so I do hope they’re in your area ASAP! :(

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @Simatron3000 @virginmedia That looks bad, mine is better than that, but notice no packet loss.

  • SalfordHydro Dr Neil Entwistle (@SalfordHydro) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Ok great, I hope you do as thus far your customer service phone line hasn’t. The engineer hasn’t. The manager I spoke over the telephone hasn’t so you’re my last hope before I’m forced to shop elsewhere

  • louise_woodman Louise Woodman (@louise_woodman) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I keep calling and it plays the same message saying you knows there’s a fault and you are trying to fix it. The same message since Saturday morning. It offers texts to update but I’ve had no texts even though I’ve put my number in each time I’ve called.

  • SweeneySweeney1 lynn sweeney (@SweeneySweeney1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I have a complaint on going for damage to the inside of my property caused by the installation.I have spoken to various people and had managers at my house to look at the installation which was done incorrectly . I am waiting for a call back from a manager still

  • louise_woodman Louise Woodman (@louise_woodman) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia we’ve also got no catch up tv etc.. only live tv. Again since Saturday. Tried rebooting but this doesn’t help. No timescale given on the number you gave me and no texts sent to update.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Will you ever sort your hub 3 from lag, lag, lag, 10 million customers, you prob paid a quid each for this pile of crap hub 3 from China, taking advantage of the sweat shops paying the workers nothing, that is why this router is shite, shite shite!

  • SweeneySweeney1 lynn sweeney (@SweeneySweeney1) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia My complaint regarding the damage to my property following the incorrect installation of cables at my property has not yet been resolved. Apparently, my complaint has been escalated to a manager but I am yet to receive a formal apology or formal acknowledgement 1/2

  • CancerGolf CLIC SARGENT Charity Golf Day (@CancerGolf) reported from Rochdale, England

    Having a right shocking time with @virginmedia customer services. 3 months being overcharged and having to call them on a monthly basis! Still not resolved 🤬 looks like @SkyUK will be getting a new customer.

  • Samueltennant Sam Tennant (@Samueltennant) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia UK Sales say 1 month extension reconnection impossible, but offshore call centres said yes but this has not happened yet. House moves are stressful. Please help.

  • CarlitosGirl Gail (GiGi) Frampton (@CarlitosGirl) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No not really, I need a call or a name I can email. I just need a resolution, can't spend time telling a long story to people who don't have the authority to look at the account and resolve it. Can you do that or can you pass me to someone who can. Please.

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my broadband I have been on hold for over an hour. Terrible service. No email no online chat.

  • FiFiMc92 Fi (@FiFiMc92) reported

    @virginmedia we have a install date of 7 dec for your broadband and you’ve said it’s been rescheduled due to my mom saying she had been shielding. We called today to say we still want it installed on 7th and nobody called us back. Can you help me please

  • caz_barker Caz Barker (@caz_barker) reported

    @virginmedia No I haven't had it resolved. All I managed to get was a test run in the equipment and I got a text with the online link and that was no help either

  • LordWoolamaloo Lord Woolamaloo (@LordWoolamaloo) reported

    Home to discover @virginmedia internet down. Working when I left for work, two router reboots since I came home, no web connection. There goes plans to unwind after extremely busy day with new Trek on Netflix...

  • rickbingham Rick Bingham (@rickbingham) reported

    @virginmedia I signed up 3 weeks ago. The first team did the external work but your engineer came next day to say it needed redone. I want to cancel, I waited 40 mins on a support (premium call) the call was answered and then they cut me off. Can you contact me?!

  • Skudda26 Harry Skudder (@Skudda26) reported

    Yet again, waited for an hour for virgin to answer the phone and yet again they’ve answered the phone and put it down straight away. So frustrating when you have no WiFi @virginmedia

  • tinkx57 Tony Tinkler (@tinkx57) reported

    @virginmedia I need to speak to a manager as soon as possible as there is a security issue on my account.

  • StevenNott StevenNott (@StevenNott) reported

    @virginmedia Hasn't helped sorry. I've also called the 150 service and an auto message would restart my equipment, then then auto message said "Goodbye" and cut me off. How can I resolve this please?

  • MorganHarley03 Morgan Harley (@MorganHarley03) reported

    @marcellosenpai @virginmedia Down in Wythall too

  • MarkkCampion Mark Campion (@MarkkCampion) reported

    @ForeverJACK @virginmedia Vodafone's 80GB service. It's been ok to be fair to them. For TV I use smart TVs connected to internet and freeview.
