  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

  • BeardPunk
    Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi. The team have also said that the issue isn’t resolved though? Everything has been reset multiple times this morning and still the same issue.

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

  • timhazelwood2
    Tim Hazelwood (@timhazelwood2) reported from Bewdley, England

    @virginmedia He has called a few times and I called once. They say there is an issue in the area. He's been without service since July and they said the issue would be resolved on 21st aug. ive been away and it's still not fixed. It looks like an issue with the box to me as a layman

  • timhazelwood2
    Tim Hazelwood (@timhazelwood2) reported from Bewdley, England

    @virginmedia my dad is a pensioner who has had no TV service for more than a month. We have called numerous times and not had resolution. Can someone please contact me to help sort this out

    @virginmedia why is the Sky Sports red button not working

  • JazbaEnt
    Jazba Entertainment (@JazbaEnt) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia business installation, been given 6 dates since 17th January. 4 no show or wrong booked, 2 attendance but not equipped to extend installation from 1sf floor to 2nd. even billed for a service which is not even installed yet. Nightmare #virginmedia #broadband

  • scbadham
    Scott badham (@scbadham) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia really disappointed in the service lately all it does is keep dropping. I’ve had no Internet services for the last hour again the fourth time this week and it’s still not working

  • lePhantomPlume
    le Phantom Plume (@lePhantomPlume) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia It’s ok thanks, one of your team rang me, was extremely rude then hung up.

  • BeardPunk

    @virginmedia any updates on the VPN issue?

  • chrispsaras
    Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

  • redron1975
    Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Right then fools. How many times do I need to contact you to tell you how bad our internet is? I am so fed up with this service and wouldn't recommend you to my worst enemy. I cant wait to get service from someone reliable. Clowns

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Swindon, England

    Any news on outages in B37? Also how do I get compensation for loss of svcs (inc my TV not working properly since September) @virginmedia

  • saqibsvideos
    ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • iaacctvuk
    IAACCTV Limited (@iaacctvuk) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia broadband down again from Virginmedia Common theme these days

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    Once again the Internet Orovider that claims to be the best @virginmedia, has an outage. I bet all my savings there would be significant kick back if the directors didn’t get paid, because the Lady dealing with their account cannot get online. Time has come for change #cancelVM

  • MariannexS

    @virginmedia red button for the football not working again. @SkySports

    Fed up of these “intermittent” problems with my @virginmedia broadband.

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia You have just repeated, word for word, the last tweet you sent me, to which I replied! Pointless trying to have any conversation with @virginmedia because it just goes round in circles! The most appalling customer services in UK in my experience! No more tweets from you, please!

  • MonsterMikeyG
    mike gorman💙 (@MonsterMikeyG) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia I cancelled @virginmedia after 15years last week as my bill hit £200. They offered me a decent package but I said no. Phoned me over 6 times over the next 2 days before I answered only for them to offer me a worse deal than the one I turned down. Madness

  • racenerd2
    racenerd2 (@racenerd2) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry @virginmedia This really is a terrible response. The price goes up because the price goes up. Seriously? We were with you for years, but got sick of the constant increases and the depressingly asymmetric customer interface... trivial to move to a higher cost contract, but reducing the cost involves sitting on hold then speaking to an overseas call centre. This business model screams desperation. It's customer hostile. Please, wake up and pack it in. We're now with Toob, £29/mo for 900M+ fibre. We ported our phone number to a VoIP service for about £2.99/mo and don't miss the ad-stuffed cable TV channels at all.

    @virginmedia Your WiFi is AWFUL

  • DanielCasey7
    Daniel Casey (@DanielCasey7) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry @virginmedia we shouldn't have to move through three call centre departments, 20 requests to cancel the contract only to be hard sold a more expensive contract, eventually the cancellation request is accepted, then the retentions dept can actually offer a fair deal.

    @virginmedia @PeteUK7 3months to update an auto send template. Media savvy VM at the cutting edge of tech and customer service.

  • pauliebwillcox
    Pauliebwillcox💙 (@pauliebwillcox) reported

    @virginmedia I upgraded to Virgin360, it's been a nightmare- 4 times the box has reset & lost all our recordings, it fails to records things and its been impossible to get any help - we've been with you with no problems for decades, can you get me some help before I move to Sky?

  • FractalDoctor
    Dr Stuart Woolley (@FractalDoctor) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Had exactly the same situation last year with a close relative. Complete shambles that took many mails and waiting on hold on the phone to resolve, then sending back boxes of crap that would no doubt go into landfill. I'd recommend avoiding them at all costs, for anyone.

  • WeHearYou2020
    WeHearYou (@WeHearYou2020) reported

    @virginmedia @rafthemaster They offer an awful service. When there was a national outage a fee weeks ago our main box coincidentally went off and stopped working. Spent nearly two hours on the phone waiting and then trying to explain our problem. We were promised a new box. Still waiting. Shocking service.

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Once our contract is up we are off from virgin media. Terrible company
