    @virginmedia Folks, amuse me, why on earth would I or anyone complete a survey after leaving you when you couldn’t deal with the issue within 2 months and dare I say the plus 20 years we had an undiagnosed fault!?

    VIRGIN MEDIA WHY CANT I GET “virgin to go or media on my phone” Keeps saying Sign In then it won’t recognise my email address 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

    @BritishGas I’m truly astonished. I didn’t think there could be anyone worse than @virginmedia for customer service but you’ve managed it. I’m in awe.

  • marksands69

    Anyone still having broadband issues with @virginmedia

  • TMFeeG
    THE FEE MG! 👩🏻 (@TMFeeG) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia No he is NOT! I have called and logged the complaint. Your rep who came to the door around an hour ago was extremely rude. I am utterly disgusted that he could treat an elderly partially deaf gentleman this way. Had I not witnessed it for myself I may not have believed it.

  • MarcusNovius
    MNovius (@MarcusNovius) reported from Royal Tunbridge Wells, England

    @coxy1976 @virginmedia Crazy you got to speak with a human! Took me days to get through via various methods going round in circles just trying to either cancel or renew my broadband. Eventually it was sorted in minutes after hours of my time wasted.

    @virginmedia BT Sports 2 picture keeps getting distorted... any other channel is fine can you help please

  • wharfyoung
    jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Wateringbury, England

    @virginmedia Oh now this is the clincher, I can’t make a complaint online because the account has been disconnected. So when I login it tells me I don’t have access to that page. It’s almost like VM don’t want disgruntled former customers tearing them a new backside in their complaints.

  • elise_john85
    Elise 💉💉💉💉 (@elise_john85) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia Can you tell me how to correct the address on my own! Apparently it’s been incorrect for the 4 years we’ve had your service!

  • 1CreativeRay
    Dr Stower and the Stock Market of Madness 🦍 (@1CreativeRay) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

  • TMFeeG
    THE FEE MG! 👩🏻 (@TMFeeG) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia You just turned up at my fathers door 6 months after you uninstalled your service following my mother’s death to collect your equipment which you took with you when it was uninstalled. Your rep (David Khan) was very rude to him.

  • moleyfozz
    paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, England

    @MrG48 @virginmedia Yep. Turned it all off once came back ok but very hit and miss tonight. Good job not working from home at the moment.

  • onearmedjohn
    Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had two lengthy phone calls with your ‘technical support’ people; it briefly got quicker then stopped working completely. On their instructions I’ve changed some settings on my router which apparently may take 48 hours to fully take effect…

  • LauraBaalham
    Laura Underhill (@LauraBaalham) reported from Snodland, England

    @virginmedia Absolute rubbish. Try calling to speak to someone...no answer. Try online...email address is completely different to my account. Date of last bill&account details don’t match. Complete load of crap. Won’t be paying my bill so at least someone will contact me 🤬

  • yiddo71

    @virginmedia sort your customer service out they have just cut meoff again!!! Whilst on hold to make a complaint #ripoff

    Darren Young 📺 (@Just_Daz_Young) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia My tariff is going up from £72ish to £108ish so I want to leave... Simple but trying to get them to do this is madness. Internet is slow and not reliable, I have been promised the earth and it has just got worst! @BBCWatchdog

  • onearmedjohn
    Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia This is so tiresome I have complained so many times about slow broadband speed, unreliable WiFi, terrible TV services & only after threatening to leave did you send an engineer in July. This made it a little better, but recently it’s been unreliable of an evening.

    @virginmedia I am following you and there’s no message icon. I just called again and was told the appointment was booked incorrectly and nobody can attend until Tuesday. It’s an absolute joke and I’ve raised an official complaint.

  • SkyTedTravels
    🐻 Helen Standen 🐻 (@SkyTedTravels) reported

    .@virginmedia what's going on with smart TV connection to router, WiFi or wired not working for days.... paying for subscription we can't use?

  • ferdi_rezvan
    Ferdi Rezvan (@ferdi_rezvan) reported

    @virginmedia For the last 72 hours the internet goes down around 930 and comes back up in the evening. What is going on? I have sent a DM and not getting a response

  • MrBenGrant
    Ben Grant (@MrBenGrant) reported

    @willywillett @virginmedia Had a similar issue with an engineer, they booked an appointment for 4-7pm on a Saturday and it turned out they engineers stop at 5. So the engineer wasn’t able to get to me. They came a few days later and said they would never come after 5 on a Saturday

  • willywillett
    andrew willett (@willywillett) reported

    @MrBenGrant @virginmedia They are absolutely awful, after we've recently had issues i rang and arranged for an engineer to come out, guess what? They never showed up! Not even a message to say sorry or a call to apologise for the inconvenience of waiting in..😡

  • ianrooney48
    roo64 (@ianrooney48) reported

    @virginmedia My tv picture is distorted and pixelled. Been gradually getting worse since yesterday. Many of us in the M43 Manchester area having the same problem.

    @virginmedia Down again been down all night.

  • ACraftyOne
    Crafty (@ACraftyOne) reported

    @virginmedia This is the problem I have 5-6 responses from your incompetent customer service team. I have requested a deadlock letter which they refuse to provide. Just to clarify that it is a scam. I paid for the service on my contract as shown, now you are charging me twice.

  • ACraftyOne
    Crafty (@ACraftyOne) reported

    @virginmedia I have dm the complaint number. Please issue the deadlock letter today. I have sent to your ceo as well. I hate to be scammed and so I am going to the ombudsman.
