    @virginmedia your online customer service intro is shocking. Frustrating and awkward. Such a big company should have a better phone service.

  • andrewjthorp Andrew James Thorp (@andrewjthorp) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @ben_reed_73 @Scoutsscarter @BBCBreakfast @virginmedia I have been with them for 12 years. Love the product, hate the service

  • DanaAldubaib دانه الضبيب (@DanaAldubaib) reported from Paddington, England

    @virginmedia Yes I would like to cancel my service and still no one answer !!

  • bobby_harding_ Bobby Harding (@bobby_harding_) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Hi ALG, thanks for the reply, it’s greatly appreciated😊 After a long call with Yodel we’ve found out there was a system error resulting in them having to return to the depot & they will attempt to deliver today. Nevertheless, the problem has been the lack of communication to us.

  • SGuggiariPeel Sam Peel (@SGuggiariPeel) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia worst customer services I've ever dealt with. They make it hard to complain then lied to me twice deliberately and closed the complaint before it was resolved. Don't trust them!

  • Gemsy8382 Gemma Sargeant (@Gemsy8382) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Hi, the internet doesn't work full stop. It stops but the white light still shows in the box. She needs an engineer please

  • yiddo71 Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia you have the worst mobile customer service in the world absolute disgrace #ripoff #con #virginmedia #virginmobileuk

  • Enfield67 Paul Dart (@Enfield67) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia After all that, the new contract by email shows the phone part of the deal has been down graded to weekend calls only despite my Dad saying he needed to keep all time calls as he spends ages on phones to hospitals and doctors for appointments. I’m sure this wasn’t what was agreed

  • BethanyWant Bethany want (@BethanyWant) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It is only effecting one room in the house. On all devices. I have checked my area and there are no known issues

  • aarongrantham aaron grantham (@aarongrantham) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia seems to be a problem with playback on iPad from virgin media box. Stored shows on the box were playable now not. Connects, plays 2 secs then stops noticed 3 days ago.

  • ThistletonM Matthew Thistleton (@ThistletonM) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for your response, the TV connection is still often very slow or (having just come home from work) currently not connecting to Netflix or catch up (error NW-2-5)

  • JaneLHirst Jane Hirst (@JaneLHirst) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia I'm sorry, if your people can't get their acts together I'm not going to chase them and I'll be looking into our service options tomorrow

  • bobby_harding_ Bobby Harding (@bobby_harding_) reported from London, England

    I have just received the most atrocious customer service from @virginmedia ! WiFi was supposed to be here two days ago because it was signed for at the wrong address & I’ve just been told by a supervisor that there’s nothing they could do, thanked me for my time. Then hung up!😡

  • Gemsy8382 Gemma Sargeant (@Gemsy8382) reported from London, England

    @MoneyTelegraph another @virginmedia fiasco! 🤨 Been going on for over a year, just checks mums messages. Internet constantly going down!

  • BethanyWant Bethany want (@BethanyWant) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It keeps going down on all devices now.

  • Gemsy8382 Gemma Sargeant (@Gemsy8382) reported from London, England

    Unbelievable! My mums internet service is having problems. The call centre seem unable to deal with this. This has been going on for months. I'm still on hold. If it's not sorted today you're losing a customer @virginmedia

  • nige977 Nigel (@nige977) reported from Ilford, England

    “Right now our team is a little busy” @virginmedia yeah no shit they are, everyone trying to call to get their daily virgin issue sorted

  • AngusTeee Angus Teee (@AngusTeee) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I could indeed try ringing that number - if I wanted to spend over an hour listening to the same songs on a loop then speaking to someone who doesn’t know anything. You have a real problem with customer service and it will lose you business.

  • nige977 Nigel (@nige977) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Nah you guys really do suck, can’t fix a thing remotely, and I’m done taking time off work, think Sky deserve a crack

  • nige977 Nigel (@nige977) reported from Ilford, England

    on hold for 15mins @virginmedia only to be given another number, utterly useless, how can the service be so expensive, but this useless

  • TravelsOfTux Paul Holt Guardian Of Tux (@TravelsOfTux) reported

    25 minutes now @virginmedia . I have never heard such a load of dismal and depressing hold music as you have. then just to torture even more it repeats. #virginmedia

  • kpwxx Kim Wheeler (@kpwxx) reported

    @virginmedia Just tried again, got told restart hub would fix current fault (even though no issue currently) and then hung up on again. No option to actually tell you what the fault is. Also other customers in town having exact same issue at same times so clearly not a problem with our hub.

  • teachya emily isham (@teachya) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on hold for nearly half an hour trying to cancel my account. Website says I have to call and can’t do this online which is very frustrating. Can you help?

  • damianarmitage Damian Armitage (@damianarmitage) reported

    @virginmedia would be new customer. About to move into new home. What is the timeline on setting up internet? What is general wait time for a slot?

  • AdaM_BcFc_93 AdaM BcFc 93 (@AdaM_BcFc_93) reported

    @virginmedia I cant pass the security! nobody will talk about it. I spoke to someone on Tuesday and he said it went to customer services and nobody got back to me. I called again yesterday and they said because I can't pass security they wont talk about it. Nobody has advised me.

  • marwoldeb ʟ ô ʀ ᴀ 🆓🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@marwoldeb) reported

    @IvanIvanovichC2 @ScanlanWithAnA @virginmedia Ive never had that problem with them luckily, thags weird why it happens though. Do you data caps or anything?

  • TravelsOfTux Paul Holt Guardian Of Tux (@TravelsOfTux) reported

    35 minutes and I gave up @virginmedia . My ear was trying to close up in protest at the utter garbage being played. I'll try again next week.

  • LJBush Lorraine Jean Bush (@LJBush) reported

    @virginmedia My sons rang you loads of times, waiting on the phone for hours, just get fed another load of lies and yet another fix by date to find it's not been fixed again. Just fix it and stop all the BS. I'm reporting VM to Ofcom

  • lifeofvanisha Vanisha (@lifeofvanisha) reported
