  • Celia181 Celia Robinson (@Celia181) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia my son has been trying to talk to someone about cancelling for days but keeps getting fobbed off by your customer service team. You gave him an installation date & failed to turn up or ring him back. Terrible service

  • CtcCraig Craig Brisley CTC (@CtcCraig) reported from Ashford, England

    @GolfGeek6 same with @virginmedia its on my list for weekend to try and contact them , I suspect in middle of night to stand any chance of getting through to either cancel or get £ help from them , only company not contacted me to date with a gesture .........says alot.

  • Chataranga Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England

    @virginmedia what has happened to your customer service? I have been waiting since Wednesday evening for someone to reply ‘ as soon as possible’ about a fault. Currently on hold as usual on the phone. Is there anyone there at all!?

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia This is the exact problem. Your agents deny there is an issue in the area. A recent social media post revealed many people in our neighbourhood have the same issue. All your agents want to do is ‘send signals’ to our router and restart our router. Nobody taking issue seriously.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia so am missing the football again - about the third time now in about 6 weeks. Engineers have replaced all cables and router but refuse to accept it’s a network issue. How do I actually progress this or speak to someone who cares?

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Well since our exchange I’ve now been asked my problem and same security questions by an automated text bot 3 times with no actual response. Now the internet has just gone off again during the football. Think I’ll stop recommending @virginmedia to people now.

  • opshorton1 Mark (Ops) Horton (@opshorton1) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia I don’t appreciate being put on hold for 40 minutes being charged for my call, then just cut off with no explanation! Your service over the past few months has been terrible, having to reboot WiFi every day to get internet & my bill has yet again gone up! 😡

  • Celia181 Celia Robinson (@Celia181) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia A new installation. He just wants to cancel

  • HeatherT1604 Heather Tingey (@HeatherT1604) reported from Sittingbourne, England

    @virginmedia @afcsmith1886 We are getting exactly the same. Saying service is fine but a couple of us, in the area ME10 have no TV or Internet.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    Life as @virginmedia customer.

  • chinashouse John Bennett (@chinashouse) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Not being rude but I have explained it more than once to various people at Virgin media, who really can't come up with a solution and I feel that they're not really interested in doing so either, I feel as if I'm just another customer who is just not getting what I'm paying for😩

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Still keeps going off. Has been like this for months now. Has gone off twice this evening. Can’t get hold of anyone. Self service goes in circles. Just need to speak to someone who will listen to the issue. It has to be network level. 2 engineers have confirmed our setup is fine.

  • GillLeightonNHS Gill Leighton (@GillLeightonNHS) reported from Kennington, England

    Working from home over the past few days has been so tricky,our expensive M100 fibre broadband has been so slow that I had to resort to using my 4 G , tonight is 5 th evening in a row on hold for over an hour #virginmedia please can you help ? Important NHS meetings tomorrow !

  • HeatherT1604 Heather Tingey (@HeatherT1604) reported from Sittingbourne, England

    @virginmedia We have no TV or Internet ME10 but online it is saying no problems in the area.

  • HeatherT1604 Heather Tingey (@HeatherT1604) reported from Sittingbourne, England

    @virginmedia no tv but according to the service status we have no problem here. ME10 area.

  • Chataranga Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England

    @virginmedia utterly appalling service from Virgin Media. Internet completely down the other day and now problematic to say the least. Tried phoning earlier and gave up after half an hour. Just tried again and gave up after 35 mins. What has happened to the service? It’s awful

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia No not aware of status line please advise. No interest in community support forum. This is an issue with your service and equipment. Needs proper support.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia why are you ignoring my tweets on the other thread you started? On your advice been trying to get support over SMS but it just goes in a continuous loop of the same questions for 4 days?!! You also don’t answer your phone or live chat? How do I actually get help?

  • troyaaron Troy Williams (@troyaaron) reported from Sittingbourne, England

    @virginmedia I've been in an online chat for nearly 2 hours today just to arrange transfer of services to my new house. I've led the conversation entirely. I'm not even going to report the CMs identity. Just wanted you to know how bad the experience was.

  • sarahaldridge73 sarah aldridge (@sarahaldridge73) reported from Sittingbourne, England

    @virginmedia awful customer service in my experience. Been trying to cancel contract since yesterday with no success! On line chat refer to team but they don’t respond and phone lines cut you off after 55 minutes of holding on!

  • arunkchaubey Arun Chaubey (@arunkchaubey) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve been talking to them several times but they’re in Philippines and read written statements and nothing has been done so far. Can you pls try to look into this to fix ASAP.

  • jobdoctorhelp Job Doctors Surgery (@jobdoctorhelp) reported

    @virginmedia the way you treat loyal customers is a disgrace, you can’t listen to calls@apparently and you send security codes in the post? Yet provide an internet service. I am appalled and no one actually cares. It appears you see disabled customers as lucrative. #avoid

  • Andyphartley Andy Hartley (@Andyphartley) reported

    @virginmedia internet down all day again. What’s going on please? And whatever your answer is…just sort it. Annoying that it’s so fast but never works…never had this problem with @skytv

  • markusman81 Mark Edwards (@markusman81) reported

    @virginmedia congrats for once again providing the worst WiFi in the world. No service yet again….2nd day in a row, honestly you guys suck

  • randomuser94_ 😎 (@randomuser94_) reported

    @virginmedia why is your wifi so crap ?

  • RuthCla30831141 Ruth Clarke (@RuthCla30831141) reported

    @virginmedia it's very nice that you have arranged an engineer to come out after I got cut off whilst finally getting through to customer service. Planning on telling me when? I get cut off when calling back...

  • squishybelphies kai♡belphies bf (@squishybelphies) reported

    @virginmedia it went off multiple times today, my mum got sent a booster yesterday but it doesn't really help I don't pay for it though so I'm not sure I'd be able to tell you much about it

  • rfcnc_72 ⚕️ (@rfcnc_72) reported

    @virginhelp hi there it appears that many people on virgin media are not able to view twitter videos, including myself. I’d like to know if you're aware of this issue and are actively looking to fix it

  • willgwjones willgwjones (@willgwjones) reported

    @virginmedia another day, another queue in your Service centre, another restart of all equipment but apparently it’s all fine! For clarity this is second time today! Thanks for over £100 per month service.

  • woodyoo5 Paul Woodward 💙 (@woodyoo5) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, web safe app has started blocking all Twitter content. Only way to use the Twitter app is to turn of web safe. Can you advise? Have added Twitter to inclusion list but does not help
