  • DuarteMendonca
    Duarte Mendonça (@DuarteMendonca) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia having massive issues with billing and tried over 5 times to sort this over the phone. Most times someone will hang up and not call back making me have to call again, wait for 30m, tell the whole story again. Need to speak to an actual human at a store. Suggestions?

  • ImaginaryCard
    Mo-Mo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Issue is still ongoing. I have called the helpline twice and after dialling my password and getting a dial tone, I have been cut off both times before speaking to anyone. Are your phone lines broken?

  • catgull
    Catherine Gull (@catgull) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with the network. No service!

  • ImaginaryCard
    MoMo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

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

    @simonlevans @virginmedia You seem to have an inordinate amount of trouble. ZEN agree supposed to be good. I'm with BT , no trouble.

    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @AsadMoghal @virginmedia That’s of course if you get a reply from a genuine account . Lots of scammer accounts reply to Vm complaint tweets - because there are so very many online complaints #virginmediadown

  • haniehvidmar
    Hanieh Vidmar (@haniehvidmar) reported from Paddington, England

    @virginmedia I need to urgently speak to someone regarding an account! And the fact that you’ve non stop taken money out of the account and refuse to refund as well as cutting the service off when you’ve had payment

  • malaiet
    Adrian Malaiet (@malaiet) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia worst internet provider in UK, appalling service

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

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Oh, they did let me cancel, but I had to answer about 3 “last question”s before they proceeded 5 minute response time on chat, took me nearly two hours, after the 4 hours it took to connect an agent. We could get a contract with a credit check in 5 minutes.

  • JakElkes
    Jack Elkes (@JakElkes) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia @SlimDD @virginmedia we’ve got an outage in Hammersmith too.

  • ImaginaryCard
    Mo-Mo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia down yet again. Where's the refund for all the hours lost with no WiFi connection?

  • REHerrera
    Ralph E. Herrera (@REHerrera) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia how can I contact u? Nothing works online, no text sent, calls are not answered. I have been trying to contact u for two weeks. I am moving overseas and need to cancel unless you have service in USA. #virginmedia

    Alex Balfour (@adbalfour) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia @PlayAvengers @Arekkz Bayta codes???Doesn’t he mean Beeta codes? For ****’s sake can no one speak proper British English any more. People at Starbucks -‘Can I get...’. Others ‘my bad’, ‘different THAN’, ‘a bunch of people’, ‘ON the week-end’, ‘ON Trafalgar Square’, ‘advertizement’ (my son said this)!

  • Housewife6
    Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Its now been 6 hours and nobody had called me. This is the bad service I am talking about! Its not good enough!

  • WoleAdesemoye
    Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia is by far the worst TV, broadband and telephone service I’ve received in 20. Customer service is appalling. I was just on the phone and the customer service personal just hung up on me. I just can’t wait to leave and go back to @SkyUK. #avoid #virginmedia

  • hdl_dl
    helena (@hdl_dl) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia how long is tv and broadband going to be down today in the Kensington area?

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

    @AlexanderTroup @virginmedia I guess there is a retention quota of some sort, that needs to be hit for some big wig get a big fat bonus. Especially, since we staying a customer anyway, just different account.

  • WoleAdesemoye
    Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia My previous landline telephone number was meant to be ported over and this never got done. I’ve never been able to receive incoming calls on my landline. Internet is very intermittent. My experience with your customer service hasn’t been great. All along I’ve been paying in full.

  • Housewife6
    Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

  • alexanderjordan
    alexander jordan (@alexanderjordan) reported

    . @virginmedia network down since Tuesday. Entirely down Tuesday, intermittent Wednesday, down again today, you keep changing the status and then advise to wait 21 hours to book an engineer, that would mean earliest visit Monday provided you don’t change the status again.

  • Yolandae
    BeKind (@Yolandae) reported

    @virginmedia do you have any idea when our area will have service? I am unable to reach your customer service to book an engineer.
