ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia They haven't called me yet that's how bad you're
-
Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England@virginmedia Dear ‘RP,’ I find your tone unacceptable. I don’t care how many times you’ve had to repeat the statement; customers are paying for a service they’ve not been getting, so dial down your level of obnoxiousness please.
-
Martin Price (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia I have been but they couldn’t get a good-enough price and directed me to the self-service page but I get “customer-exclusion” at the end of the URL which tells me to use chat.
-
Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia Yes, the fault dates back from the 25th August and hopefully a fix will be made tomorrow, if not an engineer is booked for next week. When I finally got through the team were very helpful
-
Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported from Kidderminster, EnglandHi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.
-
Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England@virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!
-
Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England@virginmedia so what crap excuse u got today for us in the ws10 area? Internet down again. Honestly if you were a guard dog nothing would be safe. Even less reliable than the weather forecast.
-
ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia I did, and told them everything what's been happening they goes we will sort out and I still getting emails from virgin I don't know why and problem is still there and bill getting delayed which I been told them about that and its keep happening since January
-
Shelly (@shelleex5) reported from West Bromwich, England@virginmedia red button not working again!! @skytv, does yours work? #FedUp missing baggies after my shift 😪
-
John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.
-
Rob Chipman (@robchippyman) reported from Birmingham, England@Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.
-
ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst
-
hayley chapman (@haychapperz) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia what is going on B31 5 still without Broadband & TV from 11am and now being told fix is 12pm tomorrow. I have been unable to work all day & now problem is going in to tomorrow. This is unacceptable & I hope refunds for loss of service will be applied to all accounts.
-
Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Think we need to call an engineer out anyways, before the outage I was only getting 600mbps max when my package is the 1Gig.
-
ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, EnglandRubbish network is @virginmedia can't recommend to anyone one of the worst customer service
-
Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia The TV goes all distorted I’ve done webchats phone calls the lot nothing has been resolved was told it was a problem in the area , neighbours have had no issues happened still have issues now but not as often but it’s a bit annoying esp when I’ve not had any money off
-
Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, EnglandCausing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?
-
Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England@virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL
-
Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, EnglandQuite possibly the worst onboarding and customer 'care' experience I've EVER had @virginmedia Unfulfilled promises, failure to deliver contract as agreed and now I'm 'lost' in the system and being ignored. I'm left with no choice other than to 'out' you. #CaveatEmptor
-
Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

Bobbypants (@Bobbypants911) reported@virginmedia what sort of morons do you employ as customer retention agents?
-
Tre (@Liafreytre) reported@AndrewW12290183 @virginmedia They never send them. Still have old crap of theirs from years ago.
-
Luke Robert Mason (@LukeRobertMason) reported@virginmedia Where do we start? 1) Your 'Contact Us' ChatBot is utterly unusable. It forces you to move to scan a QR code to move to the app - where you continue to have exactly the same conversation with the same bot in the same web-bases system. 2) It is impossible to ask simple questions: Like 'Cancel Extras'. 3) Everything on the website is about upselling a service over providing customers useful information about their currently plan.
-
Jane Wilson (@janewilson1812) reported@virginmedia can you help me!? On two occasions I have telephoned and been promised a new tv box as since I changed my WiFi box to a hub 5 my tv is not recording anything two weeks and nothing arrived
-
Asif Rana (@HounslowParking) reported@bt_uk I'd like to know why your business broadband so called service, can only compound its utter uselessness with skyscraper level brain numbing stupidity? I thought @vmbusiness was utterly indescribably ****, until you came along. You literally make them look like geniuses.
-
Jean Smith. Be kind and smile it costs nothing. (@JeanSmith551952) reported@garygilligan @virginmedia Phoned TalkTalk to add SafeCall. Answered within seconds. Lovely helpful person. Added the service, gave me £4 discount off my monthly bill then found another offer £2 less. So I have an extra service plus £5 a month saving for 18 months. Change to @TalkTalk they are excellent.
-
GrAnd944 (@GAnd944) reported@virginmedia Status update now trying to blame my kit again when you've already acknowledged there's a problem locally over the phone. No updates or tracking for the issue. Can't work *or* relax atm without. Please provide an actual update.
-
Christopher Knibb (@chris_knibb) reportedCould @virginmedia be the worst company to get in touch with? Trying to cancel my contract. Website isn’t working, chat facility is glitching and after two hours no one has answered the phone. Gone slightly crazy listening to the same jazz song over and over again!
-
Cheryl Chau (@CherylChau1029) reported@VirginMedia Help! 🚨 24hr+ OUTAGE and billing error (£33.99 quote vs £78 email). Waited 2 hours on phone with no answer. Fix this or I will cancel under the 14-day cooling-off period. #VirginMedia #CustomerService
