    @virginmedia The connection has been terribly weak the past 2 weeks. I keep getting kicked out of video calls. Please could you fix, I need to work.

    The audacity of #virginmedia to send a letter to me stating that their prices are going up in March after months of rubbish service... 🚮

    Anthony Payne (@Anthony_Lonres) reported from Kensington, England

    To all my friends who recommended @virginmedia please don’t contact me again. They are without doubt the worst company I have had the misfortune of being a customer to. If you’re considering them. Don’t.

  • persianuk2017
    Hadi Taheri (@persianuk2017) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia i have been loyal customer and i asked if i change my package to phone and broadband as its far more affordable for me seeing the prices. You refused offering me what is on offer i find at absolute ridiculous and unvalued therefore requested cancellation.

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @AbzAaron @virginmedia Even better… if you don’t play along, nobody else will cancel it. You can’t even hang up on the sales pitch.

  • chrisgreen
    Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Try actually looking at your previous comms on Twitter with someone before making such an inappropriate and unhelpful response! At the end of the day, if you are not going to help, why are you here?

  • Marshall5Sharon
    shoegal (@Marshall5Sharon) reported from Kensington, England

    No internet at all now… apparently there are a few areas with dodgy internet problems… thanks Virgin media 🤬🤬🤬🤬

    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Just spoke on the phone with an agent called Denande; I explained to her that days ago other Virgin agents reassured us that we would get compensation towards our next bill due to this outage and she said they lied to us and we won’t get any. This whole mess is becoming a circus

    Nicky Beale (@NickyJBeale) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia not very happy with the service from Virgin Media! After looking to leave them last week they promised to improve the WiFi and install a 2nd box. Well we have never and now they want to install the 2nd box in a MONTH and a HALF! #poorservice #virginmedia

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Thought about it, but it’s most likely a management directive, nothing will happen. All I want is my package, set up the new flat, and not hear about them until we cancel again, hopefully last time.

  • NigelXYYMan
    Nigel XYY man (@NigelXYYMan) reported

    @Benleo It's a long time since I was on virgin media. They had just taken over from ntlworld. It used to annoy me that they could never get TV, broadband and phone working together at the same time.

  • DillB1976
    Dylan Brown (@DillB1976) reported

    @virginmedia @ShirleySarah70 You dont reply to messages, you have not responded to me for 4 hours on an issue that is not resolved

  • DaveWW1877
    Dave (@DaveWW1877) reported

    @virginmedia The biggest joke of a company when it comes to Customer Service, absolutely disgraceful the way the treat customers Had a complaint on going since the 30th March and they still can’t get it right to resolve even after speaking with a Senior Complaints Manager

  • clairewhyte12
    claire whyte (@clairewhyte12) reported

    @O2 You didn’t look into it for me though. You told me you only deal with virgin media landline, tv and broadband, not much point in contacting you really. 0 help.

  • kestrel89B
    Liam (@kestrel89B) reported

    @virginmedia How do you think tomorrow is acceptable to see if we have service back? Will be looking at @EE as nothing else to do!

  • obbsie
    Chris Hobbs (@obbsie) reported

    @virginmedia I just tried to contact you remotely re my TIVO box & the changeover. Your Terri bot clearly couldn't deal with it. My whole computer then froze completely followed by a page of Chinese writing before the computer telling me there is a problem & rebooted itself. Will I have to wait four hours on the 150 landline as I did the other day before giving up.

  • UAVHive
    UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported

    @Benleo I have worked in telecoms customer service so can vouch for Virgin Media being (in my view) the worst in the industry. They billed me twice for a single month & made me pay for equipment I'd already returned. I was overjoyed to cancel.
