    Absolute nightmare with @virginmedia arranging new package. Since agreeing package deal yesterday I've received FOUR different emails telling me I'm gonna be paying four different amounts, all higher than what was agreed. Absolutely terrible customer service and real headache

    @virginmedia Hi, I've been on the website & phone help for 2 hrs trying to get contact number changed on our acct (it's incorrect & won't save any edit via any device) but can't get a route to the correct help. We have an engineer coming who needs correct number, what can I do?

    @virginmedia I have NO INTERNET NOW FOR OVER 36hrs!!! VM you’ve been promising to sort it!!! What a freaking useless network provider!! It’s a joke! I’m sure your competitors are laughing right now!

  • PhilLearney

    Twice in a week business internet outage for half a day at a time with @virginmedia 🙄 Called them and ‘couldn’t give a s***’, was the general sentiment.

  • rtkosha
    radz (@rtkosha) reported from Stratford, England

    virgin media was asking for my customer’s card details over the phone which i found suspicious but he goes to me “i ain’t got anything in the bank for them to nick anyway hahaha” 😭😭😭

  • kaybaka
    Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia And before you asked me to ask someone else to make the phone call; I live alone so no I can’t get someone to help make the phone call!

  • mikereddington
    Mike Reddington (@mikereddington) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I currently have a SIM only deal with O2 and M200 Fibre broadband with VM. I’d like to cancel both and switch to your Fibre Broadband Volt package (M350 + 10GB SIM) for £11.50 extra per month. How should I go about doing this?

  • PJacksonClark
    #TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Thanks KF for your speedy reply. But since "Frankie Bot" and I started chatting three hours ago via customer service chat I've been left waiting. Is that as good as it gets?

  • kevinri00714924
    kevin richardson (@kevinri00714924) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia No the chat ended and I couldn’t get back into it obviously finished work. I got nothing he was trying. He found the account in question but couldn’t get in with security. And again I’ll add I never set up account so I don’t know password. I’m left hanging again

    @virginmedia Just wondering why we pay you for a substandard service - signal constantly drops out making anything on Netflix etc unwatchable.A joke in the worst possible taste.

    @virginmedia so you hike our prices up and then the Internet has been awful today. Left home at 6am, just got home and still the same issue. Our landline relies on Internet and so does my 83 year old mother who uses it. Remind me what I am paying for???

    @virginmedia is there a outage in woolwich Se18 my broadband isn't working and I can't even load up your website to try and get help?

    @philclarke0170 Virgin media seems to be the problem

  • Ashley_Rhysss
    #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

    Laura (@Laura92492442) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Try @NatWindscreens they would give Virgin a run for their money. Tried calling 5 times - different person each time- 5 calls today, 3 emails and voice mail. They have taken my money, realised that window screen needs calibration and offered date in TWO weeks. 3rd world service

    @virginmedia my tv and broadband aren’t working and haven’t been for 3 days now, you say you will fix it on the 20/05 but I can’t even get on the app to log it, so how do I claim? NE8 3 JP

    @Benleo @virginmedia Wait wait I can top that, daughter has sky broadband, it went off about 2 months ago, she's rung & rung, told they can't check her service or book an engineer, took the payment last month, this month took 2. Still say they can't check anything. OMFG what a load of rubbish!!

    @Benleo @headofgrey I will see your Virgin media and raise you @BritishGas their customer service is absolutely appalling. Shockingly bad, awful!

  • ACforReformUK
    AndyC (@ACforReformUK) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia This "quality" service is endemic in the UK these days, there's no accountability, if you got £50 for every aborted attempt, you can bet they'd get it done 1st time every time. OFCOM should punish these firms with huge fines and bring in accountability, otherwise this will just go on.

    @virginmedia is the wifi down in the M38 area? My mum can't log into the wifi on her phone or tv and when she tries it says it's not in range

    @Benleo @virginmedia Had the same issue with Vodafone and sky. Both companies upsold to me, then they totally let me down when it came to turning connection on. Vodafone was 2 weeks, sky was 4 days. Its not just 1 company. They're all the same. Contacting them is totally disgraceful
