    @virginmedia Technical support to discuss slow speeds

  • MikeYau8 Mike Yau (@MikeYau8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia And it has just cut out again and your bot via the number above just said restart the router and put the phone down on me. Slightly concerned that it lasted 5 days again and decided to come back to disconnecting?

  • jwilko_87 Jonathan Wilkinson (@jwilko_87) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia your internet service in Gateshead for the last few days has been terrible. Keep losing connection here 🙄

  • mmcvickers Michael McVickers (@mmcvickers) reported from Consett, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Hi, it’s not an outage problem as it’s been like this for months and months

  • ghtrainer Gareth Trainer (@ghtrainer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

  • Andygclark Andy Clark (@Andygclark) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia would like to thank you for your customer service. Over 15 years of money from me. 50% price rise. I would like to leave please. No problem. All booked for you. Good bye. Wish I could afford to treat my customers like that.

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Wish virginmedia could do something about all the scam calls, I am an virginmedia customer and we are receiving. Had about 30 scam calls just this last week.

  • JeffsW0rld Jeff’s World (@JeffsW0rld) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Please sort your complaints team out.... I’ve been promised a resolution numerous times over the last few months and still nothing. what a complete embarrassment they are.

  • alicen0rt0n alice✨ (@alicen0rt0n) reported from Washington, England

    THE WORST customer service @virginmedia, should be ashamed of treating loyal customers the way a member of staff has just spoken to my mam

  • nufcscott1968 graham scott (@nufcscott1968) reported from Dunston, England

    @virginmedia is there an outage on the network? Can't make calls and no data connection?

  • ghtrainer Gareth Trainer (@ghtrainer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Then when transferred to ‘customer care’ so that I could complain and seek compensation, I waited another 20mins and was eventually cut off without speaking to anyone.

  • ChrisJ94_ Chris Johnson (@ChrisJ94_) reported from Wallsend, England

    . @virginmedia rang virgin last week to move house. You've done the external install yesterday but haven't turned up for internal install today. Tried to log into my account and it says my package is cancelled no options for support at all. Called and hung up on before answer.

  • MJGray1963 Michael Gray 💙 (@MJGray1963) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia can you explain to me why you tell blatant lies in response to a complaint

  • danieljohnallis Daniel Allis 🇬🇧 (@danieljohnallis) reported from Gateshead, England

    @lxwissssss @MartinEdition @virginmedia Mine is excellent once they replaced the wiring because it was old and now mine never goes off and it’s super fast! The English call centres are great but the Indian and Philippines ones are really bad I avoid them because they just read off scripts!

  • amymccordx Amy McCord (@amymccordx) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia how do you log a complaint? It’s made impossible. Emailed the ceo weeks ago and no response

  • MikeYau8 Mike Yau (@MikeYau8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I called the help line and a bot told me to restart my router twice and then proceeded to end the call. Little fed up

  • ITINTERACT2 Rob Turnbull (@ITINTERACT2) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia @ChesnoidGaming Virgin , impossible to call with issues but instant reply on Twitter

  • Lucy__Hedley Lucy Hedley (@Lucy__Hedley) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

  • AnnaForester87 Anna Forester (@AnnaForester87) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia network problem half way through Grease, haway man! 3rd day in a row aswell

  • MarkCarruthers_ Mark Carruthers (@MarkCarruthers_) reported from Wallsend, England

    What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

  • FinbarNick Nick Donovan (@FinbarNick) reported

    @virginmedia After ordering a new mobile handset this afternoon why have you deactivated my SIM card and now you call centre are telling me that the new sim will take 3 or 4 days to come , terrible service.

  • Oli_gal Oli Gallagher (@Oli_gal) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @virginmedia Pretty shocking service if you promise me something, don’t deliver the promise then when I try to get an answer the help / customer service team cant help me? Who can you direct me to then to sort this out? £1600 you guys owe me!!

  • MagnetoMus Magneto Mus (@MagnetoMus) reported

    @virginmedia I’m a vip bundle customer, pay almost £100 a month for my package, yet i have no internet connection all day! Its 2021!!! I couldn’t do any work from home today. This is poor. Sort it out or i will cancel my package!

  • rogerbirkinshaw Roger Birkinshaw (@rogerbirkinshaw) reported

    Is @virginmedia the worst at customer service? 3 complaints logged, not 1 formal response. Cannot speak to anyone, the answer from VM is to log another complaint.

  • hafiz_11120 Hafiz 🇧🇩🇬🇧 (@hafiz_11120) reported

    @virginmedia What help you can offer other than posing links to your website?

  • liamyates Liam (@liamyates) reported

    @virginmedia Apparently having no internet signal coming in to your house for almost a month due doesn't qualify as "total loss of service", especially over Christmas. Then when I get transferred to the technical team, I get cut off twice?

  • xMissCharli Charli Whitman (@xMissCharli) reported

    @virginmedia 1hr 20 on hold now trying to cancel. This can't be the only way. I reckon you'll close before I get though at this rate. What a joke.

  • Mr_XYY XYY (@Mr_XYY) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just contacted you re disconnection due to to bereavement, the lady took all details and then said she was passing me to bereavement department, after 20mins on hold I’ve had to hang up, please advise? 🤬

  • hafiz_11120 Hafiz 🇧🇩🇬🇧 (@hafiz_11120) reported

    @virginmedia @mini_moans Upgrading your shittiest customer service? How long you take to serve a customer?

  • mattwaring63 Matt Waring (@mattwaring63) reported

    @virginmedia That's an 1 1/2 hours waiting for a response from 'txt' customer service... What customer service?
