  • jiginthebox Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia I have had no choice but to take this matter further and make contact with #ofcom and the communications ombudsman - for the disgusting customer service for a problem ongoing for about 3 months! Get the SAME text every single day then NOTHING! 😡 @ShieldVoC

  • TommyPinkles Nicole Thomas Wyeth (@TommyPinkles) reported from Folkestone, England

    Damn. We have @virginmedia which doesn't have @disneyplus as an app. I signed up for it anyway as our DVD has a browser but no go. Think it is time to buy an Apple TV. #nohamiltonforme

  • D2SDKATO SD KATO & TSD ECHO & DD PATCH (@D2SDKATO) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Yes exactly where tahli is from I had one email back from a guy saying I would be contacted and not heard a thing !! Disgraceful service

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Still can't get through to report a fault on my Tivo box. Waited 3 and a half minutes to be told your call centre is closed too. Thanks for the top customer service.

  • TheIronHammer26 #GSBOUT #GSBOUT (@TheIronHammer26) reported from Folkestone, England

    When @virginmedia have put you into a new bundle tv contract without your say so and when you try to cancel they say there's 14 months outstanding Naughty naughty

  • Tonybee1 Tony Bagley (@Tonybee1) reported from Dover, England

    @mrdc142 @BlackamoreSue @virginmedia Cancel your direct debit, they will contact you within days

  • pinkfairy79 Emma Dixon RRR x (@pinkfairy79) reported from Dover, England

    @leebarton2317 @virginmedia @Plusnet @bt_uk @SkyHelpTeam Well that's crap 🤪

  • stardustkatie Katie 🌲 folklore (@stardustkatie) reported from Folkestone, England

    Anyone else having @virginmedia network issues this evening? My WiFi has been out for hours and resetting it doesn’t seem to help 🙃

  • jiginthebox Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Was half way through a conversation on text then suddenly a random one saying ive been added to a queue !!! Then silence for the rest of the evening... Ive had to instruct our bank to stop your payment the hopefully when you chase it you’ll rectify our issue😡😡

  • jiginthebox Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    13 minutes on hold to @virginmedia and counting — Last time was 16 minutes rhen it went dead!!! GREAT customer service...

  • jiginthebox Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Then ive been paying for a service ive not been receiving which will undoubtedly work our worse for you as I have records of all the failed correspondence and support from you!!! And all my emails/texts and calls are logged ... I’ve stopped the payment and now contacted @skytv

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia Your email re complaint makes now sense. You've closed it but not said how it has been resolved? C-1703211599 Please advise

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia is there any chance you can get to my complaint. Over a week without a V6 TV box and impossible to get through. Complaint number: C-141120166

  • chewgumforever Owen Kimm (@chewgumforever) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia been on hold for over an hour trying to get support with no response. There is no chat function online and no help for accessibility. Shocking customer service.

  • jiginthebox Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried ALL channels and still unable to speak to someone to solve this issue... You will no doubt soon be on to me for my missed payment so can discuss it then!!

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia so you don't have a complaints team yet you advise to ring x number to raise a complaint. Misleading information re when a call can be pulled to listen to. Told twice 72 hours, 96 hours gone by and now being told 30-40 days.

  • jiginthebox Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    Every day now been waiting for @virginmedia on hold listening to music for around 10 minutes!!! NOT acceptable — Want to tell we want to leave because of the poor service, high monthly bills and old noisy boxes we have to unplug every night so we can actually sleep 😡...

  • TommyPinkles Nicole Thomas Wyeth (@TommyPinkles) reported from Folkestone, England

    Bought an Amazon Fire Stick so we can access @disneyplus (@virginmedia doesn't have it as an app choice). Got D+ so I can force @SirParker77 to watch Hamilton & Star Wars. Never thought I would dig the IoT element, but it is groovy to press a button and ask Alexia to play tunes.

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Can someone help book an engineer

  • beechishere Beech (@beechishere) reported

  • LukeLinton96 Luke Linton (@LukeLinton96) reported

    @virginmedia red button not working again by looks of it

  • smokestak sM0k3sT4k (@smokestak) reported

    @virginmedia I was hoping to reduce my services but your bot interface just makes me want to leave altogether now. Get a fecking human on the job, one that can understand English....TREAT US CUSTOMERS LIKE ****, DON'T EXPECT MY MONEY...

  • GeraldOfNivea Gerald Of Nivea (@GeraldOfNivea) reported

    @virginmedia Any known issues in Swansea Uplands area? Getting extremely slow/unstable internet with frequent drop outs and extremely high ping :/

  • LornaSm85937304 Lorna (@LornaSm85937304) reported

    @virginmedia I’m beginning to think you don’t want customers or money. Slot booked in Aug date now rebooked to end of October. If you can’t provide service why bother committing? Could have gone elsewhere? So £5.25 a day comp £300 which is roughly what the yearly BB contract is

  • lol1956 Laurence McQuillian (@lol1956) reported

    @virginmedia First off my name is not Lauren, it is Laurence and I have been using the same email address for over 25 yrs including your company for over 20 yrs and have never had this problem before, its a bit silly when your asked to go online but can't without the email address.

  • Rosco1318 R McQ (@Rosco1318) reported

    @virginmedia Last night. I'm going to master reset tje now and put on router mode, then turn back on to modem. It should work for a week then back to square 1. The problem is nothing has changed apart from it being a hub 5.

  • scalisabelle IssyScali (@scalisabelle) reported

    @virginmedia You mean apart from telling me there are no service issues when clearly there are???

  • susanpawscom susie paws (@susanpawscom) reported
