    Could a twitter friend give me the number to phone Virgin Media -the internet is down and Newark’s rubbishy 3 G never loads anything in my phone.

  • ImpAngel1
    Imp & Angel (@ImpAngel1) reported from North Hykeham, England

    Extremely frustrated and disappointed at the very poor service we're receiving from @vmbusiness as we bring five new phone contracts over from EE. No reply to emails, no returned tel calls. #unacceptable

    @virginmedia Ok Virginmedia, the WiFi extender for which paying for (installed on 27th May 2020) has ceased working, this may or may not be as a result of the issues from the weekend or not, but before the issues started, it worked, afterwards it didn't. How do I get it replaced?

    @virginmedia Yes, issues showing. I've had to go to a cafe to work - so now as well as lost hours of income I'm down bus fare and refreshments so that I can use the the WiFi.

    Hannah Allen (@Hannie02Allen) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia how many times are you going to pass me off to other departments or hang up on me! Not to mention create a bill that does not exist. #hadenough #virginmedia #ofcom

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Because I wouldn't connect a laptop to an unknown (to me) website, through the router, where the could alledgely monitor connection speeds. When your engineer visited he had to escalate the issue to your network team. Because I had 1 downstream & 1 upstream not the 24 down and 4.

    @virginmedia can someone help me pls,I'm sick off trying to get help for over a week about my broadband

  • RichardFarrell8
    Richard Farrell (@RichardFarrell8) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Looking for advice. Trying to cancel @virginmedia as they keep saying I owe them £168 but they should have credited me £70 but they have debited me instead. Made several calls over the past weeks to no joy. Logged a formal complaint to no avail. Advice is much appreciated 🤯

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Your web app says there is no problem, but your telephone diagnostic services says there is? Which is correct?

    @virginmedia Thanks ,yes I’ve had several updates on completion of work pre Xmas it was 6pm most days . Since then it was 3:30 yesterday , definitely today , and one of your highly trained customer agents advises me it will be 3:30 tomorrow ,unless of course you know something ?

  • MattBenson1
    Matt Benson (@MattBenson1) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Hi - nope. Thats the issue, no response on the text service and the call centre just gets into a loop and I can’t book anyone. Help!

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia The biggest problem is you do t know how they work, installers don’t know how to check they work and more importantly no one seems to understand why they’re NEEDED! They will be why someone dies and Virgin WILL be named in the courts at a guilty party!

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    A recorded voice saying sorry only calls to an emergency number are allowed is not much help of your lying on the floor only able to press your emergency lanyard! @virginmedia urgent training is required to ensure people aren’t left in this situation. #unacceptable #LivesAtRisk

  • wilsmadein85
    Nathan Wilson (@wilsmadein85) reported from Gainsborough, England

    @virginmedia Tried ringing at the weekend and kept being sent to the website. Your customer service is as much use as a chocolate fire guard

  • oh_so_boatie
    Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Not a great start to Monday - @virginmedia is down, mobile hotspot not working, and as a freelancer who doesn't get paid when I don't work, losing much needed income while things are ££££ is very irritating 😞

    @virginmedia ok it’s been over a week now 2 calls to customer support and I’m still locked out off my account which is stopped me using my app .

  • OCP_84
    Owain (@OCP_84) reported

    My experience dealing with @virginmedia has been nothing short of shambolic. Was with Virgin for years on £93 for full package inc. 2boxes + @tntsports. 2 years on, they want £150 to retain me as a "valuable" customer. However, if I cancel - create new a/c; it's £114

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia I have just got off the phone from Virgin customer services who assures me and engineer will collect the equipment on Friday. After 35 years as a Virgin customer I am very disapointed in the poor service I have recieved. Again why do I need to apply for a returns package ?

  • crispinlewis

  • A7ESK
    Edward King (@A7ESK) reported

    Right @virginmedia 3 calls in the customer service came through the same procedure and you still haven’t unblocked me so I can watch stuff on the app. What is going on seriously?. and this is almost week three.

    @virginmedia @MikeHenry58 Following that you get transferred to different depts that still can’t help you. Your customer support is absolutely terrible!

  • Dgjbear1
    Dgjbear (@Dgjbear1) reported

    @bravemongoose @virginmedia You won’t get a reply from X either. They are simply closed. I’m guessing the company is close to collapse. I’m trying to cancel my contract to after 25 years
