    @virginmedia They raised a complaint and nothing was done about it, they probably didn’t even listen to the call where I was sold the product, if they did it would have been dealt with

    THE WORST customer service @virginmedia, should be ashamed of treating loyal customers the way a member of staff has just spoken to my mam

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Wish virginmedia could do something about all the scam calls, I am an virginmedia customer and we are receiving. Had about 30 scam calls just this last week.

  • Lucy__Hedley Lucy Hedley (@Lucy__Hedley) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

  • Mal_Area Malcolm Sinyard (@Mal_Area) reported from Whitley Bay, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • fadermonkeyking Jeff Brown (@fadermonkeyking) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Second tweet! Trying to cancel appointment. App only lets me reschedule, not cancel.

  • redzieredz A Red Hen (@redzieredz) reported

    @virginmedia @boostgaming Internet not working again! TV box hasn’t worked for a year! Customer services in India is a disgrace! I asked for compensation and to cancel my contract and she said I couldnt cancel. Pointed out they were in breach of it, so I have every right to cancel.

  • leyton_r leyton rahman (@leyton_r) reported

    @virginmedia I lose connection on multiple devices. 22 devices is not just on one pod. They are supposed to be “intelligent” and resolve this by themselves. BT had their own mesh system which never ever gave me any problems. How strange is that?

  • RyderDesignS8 Ryder Design™️ (@RyderDesignS8) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. There’s a local issue apparently. Fair enough. Thanks.

  • katnav01 キーディ魔女 🍀 (@katnav01) reported

    @virginmedia There shouldn't be charges as per the legal terms in my contract with Virgin for Android phones under 24 months old. I am paying for a handset that doesn't work and now you're trying to charge me for fixing faulty goods when repairs are covered under my contract?!

  • ham1878 Wally (@ham1878) reported

    @EggsyGLC @virginmedia Just **** them off

  • RyderDesignS8 Ryder Design™️ (@RyderDesignS8) reported

    I’m paying for, and supposed to be getting, 1Gb download speeds. I’m getting 33mb tops at the moment – the uploads are quicker than that! @virginmedia I’ll be contacting you later with details, but it isn’t good service at the moment.

  • leyton_r leyton rahman (@leyton_r) reported

    @virginmedia You see, after I joined, I became an “existing customer “. So they refused to speak to me. They had promised me £200 credit. Turns out you have a maximum £100 limit. Roland promised more which is why I paid BT £260 early cancellation penalty

  • MattyBrennan M Brennan (@MattyBrennan) reported

    @virginmedia I was told that the lines were closed for the team I need to speak to so I have to wait for them to call me. This is new. I’ve had boxes fixed/replaced before and I’ve never had to wait 5 days for someone to call me just to arrange this.

  • Gillmck3 Gill McKinnon (@Gillmck3) reported

    @virginmedia My blueyonder email has been down since late Thursday evening. Can you advise?
