  • gborg9 Gino Borg (@gborg9) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have done multiple times ... by phone and by chat ... the Indians helpful but useless, the British patronising and rude

  • lambertusc Lambertus Cornelius (@lambertusc) reported from Merton, England

    @Camclarky @virginmedia Get out Cameron, Sky is a superior service in every aspect. I am hoping to rid myself of Virgin AS SOON AS THEY BOTHER ANSWERING THEIR PHONE! #TransferTalk #TransferDeadline #virginsucks

  • gborg9 Gino Borg (@gborg9) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia blocked my mailbox on 23rd .. numerous 30min phone calls later, and patronising responses, fake promises of call backs ... mailbox is still unavailable.. shockingly awful customer service .. disgusting.

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

    @virginmedia very irritating. Sky sports golf is dead on Virgin 515:ladies open appears to be on sky mis 520. Tried to phone vurgin. Held for 16 minutes then gave up. Terrible.

  • Lonmark1980 Markie (@Lonmark1980) reported from Bromley, England

    So annoying at @virginmedia internet had gone down!

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @tinytwink @virginmedia Not the rubbish customer service line, wish you luck

  • Louisblack Louis Houghton (@Louisblack) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia I phoned up today to find out why I was paying £50 a month for internet when a new customer pays £35. I was basically told to accept it so I think I’ll look at moving to @SkyUK for £27 a month.

  • mfelmi Dan King (@mfelmi) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia It was media. The call was finally answered after around 40 minutes. I wouldn’t mind if this was an isolated issue but I’ve had a number of problems with virgin media customer service (by phone) and looking online it seems that many other customers have experienced the same.

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @adelarks @GemMcK13 @virginmedia Just cancel your contract if you're not getting the service

  • Louisblack Louis Houghton (@Louisblack) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia It just seems odd that Virgin seem happier losing an existing customer than just giving them the same deal as a new customer. Instead of £35 a month they get nothing.

  • soniagrosvenor1 soniagrosvenor (@soniagrosvenor1) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    Looking at numerous other tweets complaining about @virginmedia and there appalling customer service and useless complaints department!!!

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

    @virginmedia No, as I explained, it appears to be no longer a problem. I am less concerned with a fault occurring; that happens. I am more irritated by a lack of notification of the change, no response to my call and your lack of acceptance of their being a problem.

  • followcbv Madhan (@followcbv) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia still waiting as one of your operator went to check something with accounts team after 3 hrs on hold. Still not giving up... as I wanted to cancel contract due to their #priceIncrease #watchdog

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

    @virginmedia It’s working now, the point is that it wasn’t working when the women’s open was on yesterday with no warning or redirection. I tried to get help and was waiting 18 mins (timed). And by the way not the first time virgin randomly change the description or the channel.

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @Ofcom @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Virgin Media, you are the worst! Offering me a paltry £20 compensation for 10 days of total service loss. You deny it was a total loss not intermittent so I am not eligible for Ofcom compensation! False! #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • FelicityJBee Felicity Bainbridge (@FelicityJBee) reported from Poplar, England

    Disgraceful customer service by @virginmedia - 15 min wait to discuss £20 increase in bill with no comms. RUDE staff ‘I don’t care if you want to leave’, immediate transfer and 15 more mins of music... APPALLED. #CustomerService #fail

  • flowergirl_lon Flower Girl London (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @Leearna6 @suz_rudnik @virginmedia Ofcom compensation is £8 a day for loss of service but they don’t pay it until service is back on... defo chase it up as it’s the law now not just a customer service / good will gesture. As soon as you are reconnected it should be applied to next bill.

  • watchvideosoul Nezih Savaşkan (@watchvideosoul) reported from Lambeth, England

    @DDavidian @virginmedia Upload is advertised. About 20meg. But had a few issues recently where download has randomly dropped from around 180-200 down to under 15.

  • richie_b_80 Richie Berryman (@richie_b_80) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia my broadband connection has been down all day! Help! I have reset and done the troubleshooter tool

  • soniagrosvenor1 soniagrosvenor (@soniagrosvenor1) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    Still awaiting reply from Lutz Schuler @virginmedia , chief executive, re numerous complaints re incompetent staff @virginmedia. Lousy customer service!

  • Faymondo73 Neil George Fay (@Faymondo73) reported

    @virginmedia lost internet here in Liverpool 17. Any known problems ?

  • SharonMC68 KrazyKiwi (@SharonMC68) reported

    @virginmedia Yes we have done that already but pointless if we have no connection... when we have connection signal strength is great

  • msb1302 Michelle (@msb1302) reported

    @RiaBlackmore @virginmedia I agree. They are awful. We are lucky if we go 1 day without some problem with them. Its not acceptable when we are paying for a good decent amount of MB each month. Time to change I think.

  • linahb linah (@linahb) reported

    Worst customer service award goes to... *drum rolls* @virginmedia ! 👏👏 No online service, waiting 1hour + on the phone for the "team" to not even answer.

  • keshvji Speak the truth (@keshvji) reported

    @virginmedia Seems you don't want help how many customers login pages do you have!

  • Alliedagent Aidan Minter (@Alliedagent) reported

    @virginmedia Both PlayStations in the house can no longer connect online, Netflix buffering, internet dropping in and out, rebooted twice, problems still exist.

  • HannahDuBeBo Hannah Beattie (@HannahDuBeBo) reported

    @virginmedia They either reboot or tell me to. I’ve got a booster as it’s been terrible service since I moved in in October 2020, I’ve know increased the broadband package at a cost and still terrible. My daughter works from home for a government department and has missed important meetings!

  • psidgwick sidge (@psidgwick) reported

    @virginmedia Ran through the same bloody checks &took the s/n of both boxes for the millionth time. Can’t do out. A manager will ring us by the end of the day. 1hr phone call again & got off the phone with them about 15mins ago. Engineer called Mike came out & checked all ok. Account problem

  • Tinalc69 Tina Clark (@Tinalc69) reported from London, England

    Not very good @virginmedia complaint C-2901212518 emailed to say they tried to call. No they haven’t. No incoming calls registered and nothing on my mobile! Didn’t even remotely address the complaint in the email. Please call me!

  • DobieNiki it'sonlyme (@DobieNiki) reported

    @virginmedia Always having the issues. Put it this way we have an ethernet cable in my son's ps4 downstairs in his room and we have to use one upstairs too! And even at that it's still crap. Last night watching the @wwe we had an ethenet cable in the laptop and it cut us
