  • PaulClayton25 Paul Clayton (@PaulClayton25) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia #virginmobile last night I was disgusted in your customer service when talking on phone. So you advised me to use the messaging service, what a great service.

  • gregstewart Greg Stewart (@gregstewart) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia help please. Both IOS Apps are failing, can’t login or reset, no answers online, no phone support and been alone on your webchat for 30 minutes.

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @SkyHelpTeam This is a new contract I have taken out with you and it’s not a good start. If it’s not resolved within 48hrs I will cancel and go with Virgin media who don’t use openreach.

  • rebecca49493799 rebecca marie hannah (@rebecca49493799) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    Having HUGE problems with virgin!!! Then spend nearly an hour waiting for them to answer which is understandable but then for the guy to HANG UP!!! Absolutely appalling service! @virginmedia

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @OpenreachHelp They have and have been told an engineer within 5 days. Can you not read? Your engineer has lied and so have you. You have 48hrs to activate my line or I will cancel @SkyUK and use @virginmedia who don’t use your **** engineers or infrastructure

  • MikeJoiner1965 Mike (@MikeJoiner1965) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Sorry for late reply. I know my sim contract is about to end. When I tried CS I explained the issue I have. I asked if I could cancel the sim when the contract expires during that call. He told me a date to call back. Because of memory issues I forget date.

  • Matt_Davies_01 Matt Davies (@Matt_Davies_01) reported from Heath and Reach, England

    .@virginmedia quite possibly the most appalling customer service in the UK, bar none! After calling 3mths ago to cancel a phone contract after a friend died, the number still rings yet today to wait 24hrs for it to cancel! Plus, they want the password from the deceased! 🤬

  • Lindz2000 the Parrot man (@Lindz2000) reported from Aylesbury Vale, England

  • BenjiBoyW Ben Walsh (@BenjiBoyW) reported from Kimpton, England

    One time I got accosted by a @virginmedia person on a street, trying to get me to sign up. I told him there was no chance of that happening due to their awful customer service. He gave me a curse heavy reply, telling me how useless I was. I'm still with Sky.

  • nutritionlizA Liz Anderson RN (@nutritionlizA) reported from Aylesbury Vale, England

    Not good enough. As a very dissatisfied @virginmedia customer I find increasing a pensioners tariff without warning shoddy and poor. But then they are not known for good customer care.

  • JelBoy1 JelPattenden (@JelBoy1) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia you send me emails for me no nominate stay connected stars when my internet is shockingly horrendous and you do nothing about it . Surely if you cannot provide me with a service I can leave !!

  • gregstewart Greg Stewart (@gregstewart) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia New customer . You were prompt with billing for 2 months ‘service’ immediately. Now it has stopped. Cannot access VM phone apps, nor login on web, reset password, get answers online, or phone or chat. Please contact me to cancel. (23 May 2020 , 12:20)

  • Edgarcia2Edwin Edwin (@Edgarcia2Edwin) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @RachelHazey @virginmedia @AitchandAitchBe I'm cancelling mine too. This company is the worst of its kind. Customer service is diabolical and I've had enough. Never again.

  • andywindebank Andy Windebank (@andywindebank) reported from Hitchin, England

  • SportGlider Sport Glider (@SportGlider) reported

    @virginmedia Hello. The number is as following 012 602 8100 or +966 12 602 8100. It is just that the customer is trying to figure out what is the right extension to dial, and the song is causing frustration since extensions are not clear

    @virginmedia Yes I have registered my interest a while back. Just waiting to become a customer now.

    @virginmedia Yes I have checked. It states they’re down until 3pm! So that’s a whole days work I have lost!!!!!

  • sunnydhami1 Sunny Dhami (@sunnydhami1) reported

    @virginmedia why can I get through instantly on chat if I say im a new customer but then asked to wait up to 4 hours if I’m an existing customer? As someone that just signed up this is not a great experience
