  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia Had enough - paying for a service - not getting what I pay for & just getting know where fast!!!!

  • Genevre2 Jenna Walker (@Genevre2) reported from Stoke by Clare, England

    @virginmedia - have been waiting for a reply on the online chat for 43 minutes now. Not good customer service.

  • DjOoooosch CK|Fitness (@DjOoooosch) reported from Braintree, England

    @virginmedia How is it I can buy a new mobile phone from you yet I can’t speak to anyone about my current phone? Shocking and **** Customer care.

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia Please can you assist before I take this further @richardbranson as your customer care is certainly way off the mark. Kind regards Phil Cook

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia The worst bit you get one letter on 6th Nov saying your case is being investigated & apologising for taking 8 weeks to sort, two days later the case is closed as I didn’t reply to a letter 4 weeks earlier I never received!!!!

  • lizdeoli liz de oliveira (@lizdeoli) reported from Sudbury, England

    @virginmedia I have rung twice waited over 2 hours and still can’t sort out a request to cancel an account for someone who has learning difficulties and is escaping domestic violence. Disgraceful

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia That was a wired connection. It downloaded in the end (all 92GB), I will keep a lookout for issues.

  • leezaloops Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely disgusting service from Virgin. Rang to get refund for sky sports since lockdown and no help whatsoever. And I can’t make a complaint apparently as it will be automatically closed!!

  • lizdeoli liz de oliveira (@lizdeoli) reported from Sudbury, England

    @virginmedia Amazing how you won’t sort out the problem with the account holder but you’ll speak to someone else about the account without the account holder’s permission!

  • ColletteLynn_ ¢σℓℓєттє ℓуηη мσσяє♥ (@ColletteLynn_) reported from Great Horkesley, England

    @Howard_Norton @Virgin I haven’t even managed to get through to @virginmedia yet despite multiple attempts and long holds to even comment on their actual customer service. The fact they are trying to charge me for something I have cancelled and haven’t used is beyond the joke already! #poorservice

  • jharm91 James (@jharm91) reported from Haverhill, England

    @skirglepips @gayxchange04 @virginmedia @CherylHoleQueen It’s probably good to know that the xfactor is so produced that the good and the bad singers are often head hunted and told what to sing for good tv

  • leezaloops Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia No I didn’t and I don’t remember receiving one. I have checked all my emails from you and nothing. I rang a couple of days ago to ask for a discount and was basically told to get lost. I spend £100 a month with you guys and was shocked at the service. Account name Lisa Morley.

  • dwmw2 David Woodhouse #FBPE (@dwmw2) reported from Great Bardfield, England

    @treysis @noIPv6 @omnomis @virginmedia @tschaeferm @adam_as61 Nah, @AskCiti always used to be the only way to get competent customer service. At one point I almost took to using them first without even bothering to go through the proper channels first.

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia I have had enough of your poor service 😡 talking to people who lie, can’t answer my questions so then hang up!! I have 3 mobile contacts with you my 2 daughters & my own, it’s a shocking service. All I want is the deal I signed up to 😤

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I have something called a TP Adapter? in my room. When it is able to come through that the signal is brilliant, but for some reason it is not coming through right now.

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @krista_leia I don't know what to believe anymore, he told me on Sunday that Virgin Media were comping to fix it but it's now so bad i cannot even connect it. I can get wi-fi installed here just for me, but you usually need a phone line and the cost is going to be fairly high.

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @jasonkneen @virginmedia That page never seems to work for me.

  • DjOoooosch CK|Fitness (@DjOoooosch) reported from Braintree, England

    @virginmedia Please don’t conveniently close the live chat because you cut my phone and you’re having massive issues. The phone is my business phone and you are now liable for any missed work. Sort it out, shocking service.

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia @ruskin147 It’s also affecting your 4G mobile data service so every time your broadband goes down so does the 4G and we lose all of our internet access.

  • DianeBam Diane Bamford (@DianeBam) reported

    @virginmedia I’m a new customer. Made order on phone. Had phone chats(3) WhatsApps 2. And multiple tweets.

  • TheStuartBY Stuart Barber Yarborough (@TheStuartBY) reported

    @virginmedia please can you tell me how I can speak to someone about my broadband not working. The phone number is infuriating as it hangs up after telling me there isn’t a problem. Thanks

  • mcalvert1066 Northernguy (@mcalvert1066) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia Got both only complaint I have is O2 5g is so much slower than 4g so why bother with it

  • ElJaffoGuzman David. (@ElJaffoGuzman) reported

    @virginmedia the issue has been going on for 4 months. so many calls to you, so many times I've had to do a pinhole reset, so many times I've had a new router and so many technician visits.

  • MethalinIza Methalin | Yae Miko simp (@MethalinIza) reported

    @MissVioletWolf Actually been having a similar issue with Virgin Media, every now and then my connection will just cut out for a few minutes and after 4 calls they still claim theres nothing wrong. so damn annoying.

  • tat2loo Lucy Rogers (@tat2loo) reported

    @virginmedia There is nothing showing on that link. I filled in a form online and submitted it. We have had further problems since I first tweeted you. Honestly i have never had to deal with a company that makes it so hard to communicate with them.

  • iainclaridge Iain Claridge (@iainclaridge) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you for your reply. Now back up. There was apparently a service issue in my area. The second time now within past 6 mths. My O2 4g data speed is generally disappointing I have to say within Bristol but I guess that’s not your department.

  • missgracep83 Graceparker (@missgracep83) reported

    @virginmedia Well I’m currently waiting on WhatsApp have been for over 2.5 hours now, just wanted to see if you would respond quicker, maybe the social media team should move to customer relations as you seem to actually reply…I’ll just wait like I have over and over many times!

  • missgracep83 Graceparker (@missgracep83) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah I did more times then once and on every possible platform, I was offered many call backs and nothing and the few times I’ve called there have been technical issues and the call was cancelled again with the promise of a call back and nothing

  • caprettino 👼🏻 (@caprettino) reported

    not @virginmedia going down while i’m in a meeting… again
