  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @mundaytom Not true. No response to complaint letter sent August and when we’ve rung “manager will call you in 3-5 days”. Been told that 3 times. Not one callback. Shambles.

  • PrimaryxTeacher
    Angela 💫 (@PrimaryxTeacher) reported from Dunstable, England

    @virginmedia The outage has done some damage unfortunately, an engineer is coming on Thursday.

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Of course I have. My email is correct on online account. I get email bills correctly. But my complaint file has an extra character to email address and so I’ve never received acknowledgment of my complaint.

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @dpjohnston10 Complaints procedure is non existent. If you phone, promised call back never happens, webform complaint doesn’t work and hasn’t since at least 28/09. Sent letter 3 wks ago - no response, despite website saying response within 48 hours. Ombudsman here we come.

  • lutonmagoo
    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia I will call this number at some point today when it’s appropriate but no it’s still not working and when I put in my area code still says sorry we cannot tell you what’s going on?

  • DannyTsang
    Danny Tsang (@DannyTsang) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @Ofcom Thanks. I wasn't able to find anything on @virginmedia site for requesting compensation so I have raised a complaint instead.

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Also raised it in web complaint form which didn’t work. Web complaint form hasn’t worked for 2 months. Then sent letter and still no response. 2/

    Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    And another day has gone by with no landline service from #virginmedia in this part of Harrow HA1 and still the same recorded message saying they've found the problem and are working on it. @virginmedia

  • StephenCavinder
    Steve Cavinder (@StephenCavinder) reported from Bricket Wood, England

    @virginmedia do you think it’s acceptable for a customer to be waiting for more than 20 minutes (and still waiting) for one of your agents to answer the phone? #justasking

  • gemmak500
    ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia Yes there were, we received a text at 2am to say it was (finally) fixed but it isn’t & we are now expected to go through the entire reporting/testing the router process again. No engineer for days.This is NOT a router issue, it’s affecting many homes. #bangsheadonwall

  • lutonmagoo
    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia Called that number got an engineer coming out on Wednesday which is a bit long to be without broadband then they wanted me to pay for a priority service wanted me to pay for your equipment that’s is not working to be fixed I don’t think so not a great service

  • portishair

    Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported from Knebworth, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is an absolute total **** of a service! Reliable WiFi With the hub 5 bullshit! Should be thrown out of the window! No WiFi /service in HP2!

  • bendog90
    Ben Shaw (@bendog90) reported from Shenley, England

    @virginmedia I’m still stuck. No one answering the phone - my internet is down and I can’t get any service .. really need one of your service team to call me please on 07850 647 490

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia No, I’m trying to find out the status of my complaint received by Virgin on 30 September. I’ve had zero communication or acknowledgment of it.

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Croxley Green, England

    @virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.

  • mal_kaur
    Malkit Kaur (@mal_kaur) reported from Barnet, England

    1 month down, and @virginmedia #VirginBroadband continues to disappoint! Doubled my bill costs over the last year only to have nom-existent internet, appalling customer service.. please let me know how I can switch! #VirginBroadbandFail #CXFail

    Is your Internet down in Guisborough TS14? We are at a holiday home and the internet isn't working despite the white light being on. Can't use the checker like we would back home as we don't know the owners surname. Thanks @virginmedia

  • Happyowl365
    Dazzlar (@Happyowl365) reported

    @virginmedia are we going to be compensated for the skysports+ not working? I’ve paid for skysports to watch EFL games and it’s still not fixed not good service at all 😡😡😡

  • WHUbluesman
    John Miles (@WHUbluesman) reported

    Dear @virginmedia WHY has my tv package and WiFi gone down? Can't even get BASIC channels #VirginMedia

  • Schmuley_Schlo
    Meersham (@Schmuley_Schlo) reported

    @heid_the_baw_ @virginmedia I chose plusnet because their customer service is good, never had much trouble been with them for years now after switching every couple of years

  • nickholding01
    Nick68 (@nickholding01) reported

    @virginmedia Hello @virginmedia I dont think it's unreasonable to ask about a timescale for a fix and if compensation will be offered. It is however rude to ignore people

  • markstapleford1
    mark stapleford (@markstapleford1) reported

    @virginmedia @Vonk9 Presume we will all be getting a refund for this lack of service on sky sports + not working? Been down a while and current estimated repair is the 28th August!

  • Nigelbarber12
    Nigel barber (@Nigelbarber12) reported

    @virginmedia @jrdOvn And this is why I’m cancelling my contract. Shocking service.

  • pgreen83
    Paul Green (@pgreen83) reported

    @virginmedia Could you reply to my DM? Absolutely shocking service with no accountability. £120 a month for what? No service, no customer service! Potentially you are in breach of contract and now ignoring customer complaints. Not a good look this!!
