  • 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 😞

  • my_minxy MyMinxy (@my_minxy) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia on the phone now for 3rd time as get cut off, no internet and NO HELP, it’s been over 24hrs now, I need the internet

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

    @virginmedia The only response is they have given up and will let me out of my contract early. Not a great response for a customer of well over 20 years

  • 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!

  • etheridg john etheridge (@etheridg) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia,I'm John etheridge,I've rung you twice now,yesterday+today+you've cut me off,this is disgusting!not v.professional,not keen about yr firm anymore,customer service is crap,please cancel my broadband/,phone now+cancel coming to me on the 15th of this month!I'm annoyed

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

    @virginmedia So what your saying is your doing the minimum required by the regulator, and failing your vulnerable customers. As previously stated VM will be mentioned in courts when people are pressing their emergency assist numbers and get a VM message saying their call can’t be connected!

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

    Any update to the Digital Landline faults in #Lincoln @virginmedia. I’m told the cancellation my services for the 1st April has been cancelled why is this? Why are 150 trying to upsell me @VMO2News products when your core products don’t work! +3wks without a landline @Ofcom help

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

    @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.

  • 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

  • my_minxy MyMinxy (@my_minxy) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Engineer came Friday, still no service on the phone for 10 hrs to 18 people Saturday, you closed my complaint with £10 credit that I never agreed to, yet still no service waiting for another engineer… my complaint IS NOT RESOLVED @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia That’s not true that why they now allow calls to other urgent services for priority vulnerable customers such as gas, water electric police and medical urgent but not emergency numbers the trouble is this doesn’t allow calls to hone help and life lines though they should!

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

    @virginmedia I’m still getting Mail saying it needs updating, but more importantly installers and CS need to ensure they’re installed correctly and why they’re needed. It’s not just for 999. 999 can take hours to attend Jane down the street can be here in minutes.

  • Davith03257086 Davith (@Davith03257086) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia any chance of you sorting out the broadband issue in and around Lincoln. It's been going on for a couple of hours

  • 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 Boultham, England

    @virginmedia Every time i ring we get told to visit the website then the phone goes dead. And your still taking money for my dad's mobile! I'm amazed how incompetent your services are, do you get special training so you can be this crap?

  • mickyrichards27 Micky Richards (@mickyrichards27) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I need to talk to a human... my WiFi is s**t Tried customer services all I get is automated push 1 if yes etc etc

  • 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 🤯

  • Matthew56242945 Matthew Cooper (@Matthew56242945) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Virgin Media fixed the phone issue, a local fault, so I rang Royal Mail to get my money back. The phone went out again during the call. If I was a person with anxiety and depression issues this might be a major problem. Oh wait, I am a person.....

  • mickyrichards27 Micky Richards (@mickyrichards27) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I've had it with your Internet. WiFi is atrocious. Disconnected and stored away. Getting sky tomorrow. Can't cancel virgin as in contract. Even had a new router...

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

    @virginmedia not happy #VirginMedia landline forcibly converted to digital line after “fault” broadband outage 1am this morning sets off lifeline phone line warning. The point of having a big red emergency button is when there’s an emergency you press it and it calls for HELP!

  • Boxertess Stephen Lee (Insta.. @theneatstreetbarber) (@Boxertess) reported

    @virginmedia So at this point I've been on @WhatsApp with @virginmedia for 30 minutes. I've asked one question repeatedly and im still waiting for an answer! If my contract is up, lete leave. With customer service like this how can I be expected to stay?

  • LorraineMcCourt Lori (@LorraineMcCourt) reported

    @virginmedia has to be thee worst service EVER!!! Sick of having to phone every month or 2, only for them to make my problems worse!!!

  • Knightmayors Alex Magowan (@Knightmayors) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, any news on my complaint? I still can't see it in my account.

  • gmbolwell Georgie Bolwell (@gmbolwell) reported

    I want to preface this by saying that most of the people at @virginmedia customer service have been very understanding and tried to be as helpful as possible. What is not helpful @virginmedia is the fact that when I placed an order online, it didn’t go through and no one told me.

  • Fred68079764 Fred (@Fred68079764) reported

    @virginmedia You aren’t sorry as a business you are pathetic, you could not give a flying **** about customer loyalty, 42% increase in price & 3 ******* months to cancel a contract get a grip you tossers

  • simon15376 simon davies (@simon15376) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia Sorry not fix, just investigate!!!

  • AjayTarper Ajay Tarper (@AjayTarper) reported

    @virginmedia Never made this call and was changed last few months in a row a few quid. Got it reimbursed though from manager so thanks for that. Just worried if happens again like something might be automated and set up.

  • iminfrontofyou ǝʇʎq∀ΛOH (@iminfrontofyou) reported

    @virginmedia can you tell me how much money your company has invested in maintaining your network per year for the last 2-5 years and how much do you plan to spend over the next 1-2 years?

  • Caromidi Caroline Anderson (@Caromidi) reported

    @virginmedia I'm trying to get a replacement sim card and I can't get any help on your website - for several days I have been getting a 400 Bad Request message. How can I contact the relevant dept?
