  • apjoseph2013 Arun Joseph (@apjoseph2013) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Can you arrange someone to call me? I have been trying to call your service since I received the letter - which was middle of Jan.

  • DJ_Jamesie Jamesie (@DJ_Jamesie) reported from Islington, England

    @PaulJoh30516408 @virginmedia Real shame as the broadband is good. The engineer was a really nice fella too. Just the phone customer service...

  • TobyTryTri Toby Willis (@TobyTryTri) reported from Bromley, England

    Service completely down at present again!! So @virginmedia what are you going to do!

  • apjoseph2013 Arun Joseph (@apjoseph2013) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia When I ring this number (which is what I have been trying) all I get is “we are sorry, we are busy, you might want to call us later” & the line disconnects. This is awful service VM. How can you run such an appalling service where we cannot get hold of anyone for help/support.

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Can I please DM you on this issue?

  • markpink Mark Pinkerton 💙🚴‍♂️ (@markpink) reported from Islington, England

    @Leigh5Tom @virginmedia As an existing customer, they are known for their poor customer service. Can never get through on phone and that is main access point to info. Website CS info poor, with zero joined up thinking. Pretty good speed when working. Good luck!

  • tom_of_lond Thomas (@tom_of_lond) reported from Lambeth, England

    Hey @virginmedia how long till you’re gonna fix your wifi been a week now and for those that are wfh its kind of important and shutting your customer service lines doesn’t exactly help get your act together.

  • PimpOzil Drëxl (@PimpOzil) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Called again today, and was told my an automated service that all lines are busy and to try again later. I’ve been trying to call since Monday & I would like to put in writing my request to cancel. My account number is 334885003 Can someone DM me so I can get this done TODAY

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Just spent an hour on the phone to yourselves, not only is the service going to be referred to @Ofcom due to frequent drops in the service + no LL, but you can’t offer me a 12mth contract insisting I have 18mth. Well, I might take up @SkyTV’s offer reluctantly. #Ealing

  • MisterBoote Neil C Boote (@MisterBoote) reported from Ealing, England

    So our education system & business activity now utterly reliant on solid, fast, reliable internet service that market consistently fails to deliver. @virginmedia down again this am. Time for state to take control of this crucial, strategic infrastructure. Really is a joke ATM.

  • clogsworth19 Chloe Saunders (@clogsworth19) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Hi, thanks for your reply. The issue has been going on for almost a year and on my account, there isn’t an outage in the area. So if someone could contact me that would be great. Thanks

  • Spinnofflondon Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I pay more for that not part of your service that I’m paying you for every month

  • clogsworth19 Chloe Saunders (@clogsworth19) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Hi, the wifi disconnects several times throughout the day. An engineer changed our hub last year. We then spent £80 on wifi extenders/repeaters/boosters. We want to change the wifi channel to see if that works, but login details are incorrect on the hub.

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia LS, just tried to send a text to your CS and the number is invalid. Is this a scam? @virginmedia charging £49.50 for a worse service than ever before and no working landline.

  • Paul_Matuszczyk Paul Matuszczyk (@Paul_Matuszczyk) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia what brilliant technology utterly soured by almost comically bad customer service. I say “almost” as there’s nothing funny about taking 5 weeks, countless phone calls, endless hours of online chat & 2 formal complaints to just get my bill right. Not asking much.

  • AgneseRovati Agnese Rovati ✨ English-Italian Translator ✨ (@AgneseRovati) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia No you probably do it understand the extent of your lack of service. We have been having no internet for weeks and every time we call we get the automated voice saying the line is busy and to call later. 3 WEEKS like this. You guys need to sort this out.

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia I did call. One chap was very helpful and referred the poor broadband service and a faulty landline for two years to @Ofcom and the latter chap was not very helpful. Would you stay and have your monthly fee go from £28.50 to £49.50?

  • aejazk Jazzhk (@aejazk) reported from Bromley, England

    @th4tguy92 @virginmedia Do you have the Hub 4. I think it’s a hub 4 is crap or VM engineers can’t control it. Let’s try the number they have given.

  • TobyTryTri Toby Willis (@TobyTryTri) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia it great to know we pay for broadband & you really struggling to provide! I’ve had speed issues since mid Jan. U acknowledge there was a fault on 8th Feb! Said it was fixed but engineer (who came today) said wasn’t & web page wrong! Won’t be fixed till 15th! Tonight

  • whealie Chris Wheal (@whealie) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Have you ever not been too busy? You have the worst customer service known to man. Every comedian compares bad customer service to you. You are the benchmark for bad. I have been trying to get in touch for five hours now. Chat, phone, Twitter and SMS.

  • Chris_Mather Chris Mather (@Chris_Mather) reported

    So now @virginmedia have signed me up to a price they didn’t tell me about while on the phone and won’t cancel it. 4 different phone calls since Friday and 4 different lies

  • kimwestcott1 kim westcott (@kimwestcott1) reported

    @virginmedia once again our wi fii is absolutely awful constantly dropping in and out makes it impossible to watch anything or kids to play xbox!!

  • michaelradamson Michael Adamson (@michaelradamson) reported

    @virginmedia Yes my login details work on My VM account - your highest bundle (£116)

  • ASamanda21 ASMDY (@ASamanda21) reported

    @virginmedia Would all be fab if we got the internet speeds we are paying for and the internet didn’t keep dropping out. Your customer services team need to look hard at refunds when service is crap or refund automatically when you know internet is crap!

  • konventional57 ghana ba (@konventional57) reported

    @virginmedia I was then transferred to a totally different team and then informed that there weren't any notes from my previous calls. I will now have to make a complaint and the issue will be escalated

  • chris_moroney25 Chris Moroney (@chris_moroney25) reported

    @virginmedia We did all that, and we have also called 4 times this morning with zero success. Really unhappy with the service, asked for a manager 4 times and then was hung up on.

  • alcarretta Al Carretta (@alcarretta) reported

    @virginmedia Fraud landline phonecall asking to test internet speed & install 'AnyDesk' to fix. Talked about in the forums so an ongoing scam but this crew are good talkers & 'switch departments' well - call only taken as waiting for an actual VM tech to callback...!

  • konventional57 ghana ba (@konventional57) reported

    @virginmedia He responded by saying if I dispute the manager's decision, it means we have reached a DEAD LOCK. When I asked what that meant, he said it means we couldn't agree to resolve the issue

  • JobIsA4 SteveAtkins (@JobIsA4) reported

    @virginmedia @CarersUK I've just spent 45 mins with 1 of your minimum wagers trying 2 cancel my contract. u 1st tried 2 charge me full price on the 4 months remaining and not the early disconnection fee. you robbing lying *******. this is another reason why im leaving. hope your bosses rocket explodes

  • Nievelizabeth29 Nieve (@Nievelizabeth29) reported

    @virginmedia But do you understand how we’re now paying over £100 for a service we can’t use? Makes me consider coming out the contract
