  • beast_gbgolfer Colin Joyce (@beast_gbgolfer) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Doesn’t work says account question is wrong so can’t change password and can’t access account think it’s hacked 1 hr waiting on phone your service is poor

  • PaulSimmons66 Paul Simmons (@PaulSimmons66) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Today we received outstanding service from Jack the engineer from virgin media. He was polite friendly and determined to rectify the fault which he did. A credit to Virgin media thanks Jack

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    And @virginmedia want me to pay if I decide instead of the uncertainty i want to cancel it and get someone like @SkyUK or @BT installed that can actually provide the service you pay them for

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Not gonna keep calling. I also won't be paying for a service you guys can't be bothered to give me.

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Still having issues. Was on hold for 1 hour 20 yesterday too and also got cut off...😑

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    This is the exact reason I use the web chat!! To ensure conversation is saved on screenshots! So far today @virginmedia have been completely useless! Want me to pay for a service I'm not getting and they dont know when I will be able to get again

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Yes there's no issue on the checker. The connect app says it's fine except for a few times it's said the connection is poor. But 1mb some nights is ridiculous...

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia As per last message it says problem in area. It’s back working now (see time of initial mail). 4th time this week it’s been down for prolonged periods of time. Not good

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    And they expect me to be happy to wait until the 5th of december now? While still paying full price forbabaervice I cant use because they messed up @virginmedia seriously wtf!!

  • David_Preece David_Preece (@David_Preece) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yet again my internet is down, just had half service for 2 months and it worked for 10 days now gone again... yet you still take full payment out my bank, I see this a theft...

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hi. Second time this week no internet. Monday was all day. Can’t get thru to you by phone. What is going on with my service?

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

    @virginmedia it's the same old excuses. Told it would improve but still the same old inconsistent service I've received during the whole of the summer. Can never get through to anyone, complete waste of time today. Shocking customer service!

  • jadedurnallx jade💓 (@jadedurnallx) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia are absolutely useless. Have over 100 properties with Virgin Media Broadband, and you’d think they’d attempt to fix issues and keep our future custom. Safe to say we’re looking for another supplier if there are any recommendations...

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yep just says problem in my area. Not helpful and is getting to be a pain tbh

  • matttdudley Matt Dudley (@matttdudley) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Supposedly had 1gig internet installed today but it appears you only brought the slow one with you! Top speed - 400mbps. Oh, and thank for cutting my call after 2 hours. #greatcustomerservice 😡

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again today 4th time this week. Really will have to rethink providers

  • walsallmatt WalsallMatt #76TottersLane (@walsallmatt) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    DEAR VIRGIN MEDIA! SORT YOUR **** OUT YOU BUNCH OF TOSS RAGS!!!!

  • ChrisImms I.Am.Chris.Imms (@ChrisImms) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia any chance of some customer service? Installation booked for last Friday, engineer didn't show up... twice I've called and been hung up on. Complained via email, no response. Anyone want to tell me what's going on?

  • mraymond68 Mark (@mraymond68) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I have spent over 3 hours on the phone to you trying to get my broadband sorted and SIMON decides to cut me off!! Great customer service!! 😡

  • TheRamblingElf Richard (@TheRamblingElf) reported from Birmingham, England

    @AksTailor @virginmedia When I had some issues like that I haggled a month or two of free Internet from Virgin until the issue was resolved. Convincing them to do that took an infuriating number of phone calls but it was a satisfactory outcome, I've stuck with them.

  • Harryet_TV Harryet Howard (@Harryet_TV) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have looked at those - and I have asked to speak to a manager EVERY time I have called. But I have never been allowed to speak to one, which is completely against virgins complaints procedure. It seems that virgin don’t want to acknowledge the complaint. How can I proceed?

  • vickiworgan Vicki Worgan (@vickiworgan) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp It’s been happening for a while on and off but this last week it’s become a frequent problem. What do you need to know from me and where can we talk so that I can give you more details in private?

  • 8azza mr b trussell (@8azza) reported

    @virginmedia I wish we would if you could watch something with out something freezing or not working at all, virgin you are getting worse by the month so it’s time to get rid of a crap service I have to pay for

  • queenchristina_ Christina Patterson (@queenchristina_) reported

    Back in customer services hell, this time @AvivaUK. Their website tells me to call a number. The number tells me to go online. Why do so many companies (including @virginmedia) operate in this way? Oh, and the "chatbots" don't recognise basic English. Welcome to the future?

  • PaulGuinnessy Paul Guinnessy (@PaulGuinnessy) reported

    @queenchristina_ @AvivaUK @virginmedia The only way to get customer service today appears to be by using twitter. (Delta once took 45 days to respond to a website query which they then answered in 15 mins on twitter. I’d given up using the phone after 2 hrs on hold)

  • Productiondesig John West (@Productiondesig) reported

    Virgin Media are appaling. They will not fix my email. None of their help services work. They do not recognise any of my personal information

  • AndersonCLou Claire Anderson (@AndersonCLou) reported

    @virginmedia Yet again the service today is poor. PE2. How long is this going to continue? We are paying for M350 product. It’s dropping in and out ALL the time. I’m fed up of calling in and getting little information. Been like it since the first week of Feb 21.

  • markpquinn77 Mark Quinn 🌈 (@markpquinn77) reported

    @virginmedia you have to have the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced..... truly awful!

  • occasionalposts Dan (@occasionalposts) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, after 45 mins they said the job was open so installations couldn’t help , I was transferred to someone else and after 20mins more they couldn’t help

  • DavidWi78094906 Engrenages (@DavidWi78094906) reported

    @queenchristina_ @AvivaUK @virginmedia Same problem with Aviva yesterday Put on hold for 30 mins then the line went dead What is wrong with these companies
