    @virginmedia Customer Service is shocking. It’s now almost 6 hours since I asked on WhatsApp for email address to be corrected and I’m still waiting for a response.

    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.

    Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Possibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details

    @virginmedia your business is great when things are working, however I have had terrible service for the last 24 hours- no broadband and differing explanations as to the reason- no follow up and still no connection.. very frustrated this morning as I can’t attend online meetings

  • Mustxkim
    Mustakim. (@Mustxkim) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi is SO BAD. I’ve check service status online it says it’s fine but I hasn’t been working for 2 hours now. Wtf is you lot doing. It’s been disturbing for weeks now too.

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia No, no one has ever used my email to login on your forums. In the meantime it’s DAY 6 with no Internet service, good job Virgin in supporting us fixing this 👍🏼

    @virginmedia Last time, our wifi was down for over a week. I spoke to an agent on the phone who was utterly useless. You never offer any solutions. I’m starting to think that the only way for you to take any action is if I cancel my DD.

  • yessibelloperez
    Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Once again, your status checker says there’s nothing wrong but I have just called the number provided and was told by an automated messaging say your engineers are working to resolve a very complex issue. This is the second time in less than a month.

    @virginmedia Is service in London W13 working?

  • U2Gorilla

    Requested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.

    James Brown (@JammieBun) reported from Hillingdon, England

    Hi @virginmedia. I’ve tried phoning you with a complaint, but the calls get shunted into weblink hell. I’ve submitted two complaints through your site which have mysteriously disappeared from my account. And on Twitter the links you send for an online chat only ever lead …

    @virginmedia Not ******* good enough ,you charge me the earth promising the best Gig 1 and I have had problems ever since taking that upgrade ,

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

  • tobygilles

    @virginmedia Will it be a quick fix?

  • MrsJerryTweets
    SusannJerry (@MrsJerryTweets) reported from Hounslow, England

    @8252Hazel @virginmedia Yes it has been unreliable for a week now. Their customer phone line goes straight to voicemail. Monthly bill goes up by£9 this month for such a poor service.

    @virginmedia Thanks for replying. My wifi was down but seems to have sorted itself out. Visit is due on Friday.

    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia I have done, but there is nowhere to report a total outage, despite the message, and no estimated time. I have no landline or broadband, and haven't for 2 days

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @atnori_ @virginmedia Yep, experienced just recently :D I am an extremely patient person… I properly lost it today 🙃 At least the damn thing is cancelled though.

  • salemsdaughters
    Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported

    BBCs report on Virgin Media is 100% accurate. When I informed them that i had moved house to an area they did not cover they pushed me to stay until my contract ended. I had also had several technical difficulties to which they delayed any actions to fix the tech issues; what was the issue? i was unable to change my email. I call their customer service dep and neither of them were able to help me. This happened on several occasions Where i had to wait WEEKS for very easy to solve problems. @virginmedia

  • andyosb
    Andy (@andyosb) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia did exactly the same thing to me back in 2019! It was - and still is - the worst customer service experience of my life (and I'm now 65). I was just so relieved to escape them eventually. They're utter scum. Do yourself a favour & don't go anywhere near this company

  • woke_leftie
    Moto Moto (@woke_leftie) reported

    @Channel4News @virginmedia are the worst, their call centre staff don't offer real help, they're hell bent on upselling u **** ,u dont need or upgrading ur package. I feel sorry for the older people who use virgin , they probably get hammered

  • LewyKizzy

    @virginmedia 08.07 from 12.25 down again . Why ? How long ?

  • Chrismtson
    Chris (@Chrismtson) reported

    @Ofcom Still can’t get in contact with customer service today either via webchat and phone calls @virginmedia

  • ainm_gan5505
    GanAinm (@ainm_gan5505) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media is not actually Virgin, it’s a ****** American company called Liberty with a license to use the Virgin Media branding. The real Virgin company should take the license off them for driving the name through the ****.

  • NewsTongueX
    NewsTongue (@NewsTongueX) reported

    🔴 Ofcom fines Virgin Media £28m for blocking customer cancellations Virgin Media breached UK telecoms rules by deliberately dropping calls, transferring customers unnecessarily, and placing them on hold to prevent contract cancellations between January 2022 and September 2024. Ofcom received nearly 2,000 complaints and found the company's retention agents operated under a commission scheme that financially rewarded obstruction. • Fine of £28m — Ofcom's largest ever under consumer protection rules, reduced 30% after Virgin Media admitted fault and agreed to settle • Millions of calls "likely mishandled" during the three-year period

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    @MartinSLewis By far the worst company I've had the misfortune of dealing with in recent years. If Ofcom truly had any teeth, it'd ban Virgin Media from operating in our telecoms sector. A truly dreadful company.

  • ryanbrittain1
    Ryan Brittain (@ryanbrittain1) reported

    @virginmedia @ElJaffoGuzman I’ve had the same issue, my virgin media bill is twice as expensive as the next nearest price. Virgin not interested. I could cancel and rejoin it would be cheaper and cost them

  • PaulWatters2
    X Odus to Bluesky. (@PaulWatters2) reported

    @virginmedia are an absolute ******* awful company to try a deal with. Not a ******* clue about customer service. It's all about keeping you in contract. Bring back Telewest.
