    Matt Ferretti (@MatthewFerretti) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Spoken to a chatbot, messenger bot, automated phone system, a human and still can’t get @virginmedia to cancel my contact. Over 3 hours of being placed on hold and sent round in circles

    Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia The mobile no. of the customer services chap who sold us the package. I’m not bothered about the phone line I just don’t won’t to be paying for TV we don’t have and I can’t phone virgin without my phone line or I’ll be charged.

    @carltonnash @virginmedia Good luck! Unless they're trying to retain your business, they're as bad as @sky

  • LouisJSharpe
    Louis Sharpe (@LouisJSharpe) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia just joined this week, broadband isn’t fit for purpose. Two of your staff have hung up on me because I want to cancel. Please arrange for someone to contact me to cancel as your staff obviously don’t like the word cancel.

  • cathgray23
    Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia joined for broadband, being charged for Tv package which we don’t have and a phone line which doesn’t work!!! Mobile no. given to us to discuss account won’t pick up or reply to messages or emails!!! Disgusting service!

  • bally79
    Suzy Swift (@bally79) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Can’t get through to customer services need an engineer to come to mums as unable to set up broadband and phone line! And why you sent out a tv box when she isn’t having virgin tv is puzzling?!

  • SophieVPeel
    SvP💙💛 (@SophieVPeel) reported from Leeds, England

    4 days of trying to get through to @virginmedia finally get through to Sandra to be told they have system issues and can I call back in 2 hours- shocking and poor customer service #dontusevirgin quick enough to take my money!

  • MatthewFerretti
    Matt Ferretti (@MatthewFerretti) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia I HAVE SPENT A TOTAL OF 3 HOURS ON THE PHONE TRYING TO CANCEL MY CONTRACT!

  • Toni_M_Arboleda
    Antonio M. Arboleda #FBPE (@Toni_M_Arboleda) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Yes, thank you. I have checked. I rang 150 and all they get me to do is to restart my hub. It works OK for a while, but problems come back. I am very upset. I videocommunicate with 100s of people and it is very embarrassing having to explain 2 them the problems caused by Virgin

  • LagstoneHall
    Michael Lockley #TheLostPaintingOfLagstoneHall (@LagstoneHall) reported from Leeds, England

    @ReetNortherner4 @DawnSunrise1 @virginmedia They are poor, I was constantly doing "tests" on the line for a month before they agreed to try and fix it. Then later on, they handed our account to Talktalk without proper consultation who were even worse .

  • JamieSmith45
    Jamie Smith (@JamieSmith45) reported from Huddersfield, England

    Every month without fail our broadband goes down - @virginmedia what is going on? Particularly after prices went up last week!

  • PippaKOldfield
    Pippa Oldfield (@PippaKOldfield) reported from Wakefield, England

    @AssistanceVm @TranslatioNinja @virginmedia That’s a bit of a salty reply. I think your customer was referring to various barriers in the way of cancelling her contract, not the difficulty involved in selecting call options. She’s still been unable to cancel and is being pressured her to keep her contract.

  • nickiwardle69
    Nicki Wardle (@nickiwardle69) reported from Guiseley, England

    @virginmedia FYA The link you to sent above re code of practice does not work. I think I found it on your website but the complaint form asks me for my login details? I'm not a @virginmedia customer...How do I make a complaint?

  • cathgray23
    Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia We discussed the Oomph package which I initially agreed to then changed my mind within the 14 days, informed the customer service guy, by phone, text and email, he said he would cancel. The engineer came and documented that TV had been refused and therefore didn’t install

  • Ash_worth
    Fat Joe (@Ash_worth) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It’s a wireless connection. It’s the router that crashes- apparently an issue in the local area. It’s happened since the first week in December and now we’re on to the 4th date for it to be fixed. Nightmare with homeschooling and work.

  • MarcusUK5
    Marcus UK (@MarcusUK5) reported from Leeds, England

    When @virginmedia #complaints dept are supposed to ring you within 2 hours - 5 hours later & waiting. Why did I just move to this company? #fail #virginmedia

  • martynbolt
    Martyn Bolt (@martynbolt) reported from Mirfield, England

    Terrible customer service by @virginmedia cancelled 0800 installation in Dewsbury today at 2100 last night Strangely blaming @KirkleesCouncil

  • BesaJason
    Jason Hemingway. (@BesaJason) reported from Brighouse, England

    It’s too cliche. Take to Twitter to praise @virginmedia and shortly after the service and signal becomes a shocker so you can’t even do the basics. Can’t even get support.

  • 28gem
    Gem 💎 (@28gem) reported from Wakefield, England

    I have been trying since the 19th February to cancel my @virginmedia services. I can’t get through on the phone... ever! I’ve sent numerous messages which haven’t had any response.

  • Joannemarygriff
    Joannemarygriffin (@Joannemarygriff) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia On demand still not working and every time I sign in it’s been moved on three days for repair in my area. This has been ongoing for two weeks now which I find unacceptable especially when all bills have just gone up in price.

    Duncan Lewis 🎮🏆 (@Duncan_Lewis) reported

    @virginmedia Another day... another outage in M33. But of course, because it's not 48 hours straight, it means nothing. I work in tech, I understand things go wrong, but when it's this regular surely you can agree that a specific explanation and remediation action should be provided?

  • Garethjones718
    Gareth Jones (@Garethjones718) reported

    @virginmedia I have no tv or broadband, it all just stopped suddenly at 10:00ish. You service status checker says no issues and to check my equipment.

  • Sami_Dawn
    Sami Westwood 😷 (@Sami_Dawn) reported

    @virginmedia It dropped out a few more times last night and then was not working again when I woke earlier. The on site testing found no issue and sent a signal (?) and I seem to be back up to full speed. Thanks for checking in!

  • lucullus_l
    L. L. Lucullus🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@lucullus_l) reported

    @virginmedia l have been waiting for over 35 days for a full response to a complaint. I have now been kept waiting for over an hour on the chat service to be told to contact the technical team! What sort of service is that? All I want is the broadband service I am paying for!

  • simpsonsarahlou
    Sarah Caple (@simpsonsarahlou) reported

    Credit where its due, after MONTHS of shocking customer service from @virginmedia I managed to finally get my issue resolved today by Megan L, she was a star - you need to invest in more staff like her!

  • theautomaton
    aka (@theautomaton) reported

    @virginmedia Not having service issues! There is NO virgin available in my area? It’s been years now, you have rolled out all over Glasgow, we live in an expensive postcode but we can’t get your services! Why not?

  • Nicola_grant01

    @virginmedia had this number call me to saying that my Internet has been running slow (it hasn't) and they will give me a boost I said I'll ring you back cause I'm busy ATM (like magic the line goes dead)I wasn't I just don't trust people that say there from a company.01642738939

    Alice Chadwick (@AliceMakepeace) reported

    @virginmedia been trying for 2 weeks to get you to start setup WiFi for our new address, on phone today for 1 and a 1/2 hours no engineer available, no explanation as to when? Been passed to 4 different people each says not their issue. Help?! Just want to cancel our contract now

  • BiddleIan
    citizen of nowhere #wearadamnmask #FBPE (@BiddleIan) reported

    Dear @virginmedia I have now been on the phone waiting for a resolution to my broadband issues for over 1 hour and 30 minutes. During that time I have spoken to someone from less than 4 minutes. really sick of your appalling customer service and poor quality broadband provision

  • Tracy_Barlow
    Tracy (@Tracy_Barlow) reported

    @virginmedia I'm told there is an outage but I don't know anyone else affected near me. On your website it says there are no issues in my area. I'm receiving no updates and have rang seven times, on hold sometimes for hours. How can this take so long? Why isn't it being fixed?
