    @virginmedia No. I received an email stating I didn't need to sign a new contract and it was classed as a service change.

    Nicole Thomas Wyeth (@TommyPinkles) reported from Folkestone, England

    Damn. We have @virginmedia which doesn't have @disneyplus as an app. I signed up for it anyway as our DVD has a browser but no go. Think it is time to buy an Apple TV. #nohamiltonforme

    Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    Every day now been waiting for @virginmedia on hold listening to music for around 10 minutes!!! NOT acceptable — Want to tell we want to leave because of the poor service, high monthly bills and old noisy boxes we have to unplug every night so we can actually sleep 😡...

    Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia is there any chance you can get to my complaint. Over a week without a V6 TV box and impossible to get through. Complaint number: C-141120166

    @virginmedia What a joke. My partner, a loyal customer for 16yrs. He left due to very poor service. Now suddenly without notice you have blocked his email address. Very important emails that he can't retrieve. warning him would have been helpful he could have got his contacts

    Anyone else having @virginmedia network issues this evening? My WiFi has been out for hours and resetting it doesn’t seem to help 🙃

  • jiginthebox
    Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia I have had no choice but to take this matter further and make contact with #ofcom and the communications ombudsman - for the disgusting customer service for a problem ongoing for about 3 months! Get the SAME text every single day then NOTHING! 😡 @ShieldVoC

    @jasonleake @virginmedia Mate @VMSolutions_ @VMBusinessIE @vmbusiness @virginmedia customer service is terrible even I went on to online chat last night it was a guy from flipping India

  • dovermonkey
    Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia So your code of practice section 3. Your case will remain open for 28 days so you'll have enough time to review and consider our proposal. Erm you've closed it after 2 days. Your service gets better

  • jiginthebox
    Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    Every single night @virginmedia WIFI drops out — Try to call and it’s over an hour wait CONSTANTLY!! Simply the worse service... Been trying to sort for weeks!! 😡😡... come back @skytv we shouldn’t have changed!

  • chewgumforever
    Owen Kimm (@chewgumforever) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia been on hold for over an hour trying to get support with no response. There is no chat function online and no help for accessibility. Shocking customer service.

  • jiginthebox
    Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried ALL channels and still unable to speak to someone to solve this issue... You will no doubt soon be on to me for my missed payment so can discuss it then!!

  • DrPEDavies
    Dr Patrick Davies (@DrPEDavies) reported from Folkestone, England

    Virgin Media Customer Care Complaints Services always fails to come up with solutions. Rather, they continually offer verbose replies referring Customers elsewhere with endless phone numbers. Their standard is totally below the expected minimum!

  • jiginthebox
    Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Then ive been paying for a service ive not been receiving which will undoubtedly work our worse for you as I have records of all the failed correspondence and support from you!!! And all my emails/texts and calls are logged ... I’ve stopped the payment and now contacted @skytv

  • jiginthebox
    Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    13 minutes on hold to @virginmedia and counting — Last time was 16 minutes rhen it went dead!!! GREAT customer service...

  • dovermonkey
    Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Still can't get through to report a fault on my Tivo box. Waited 3 and a half minutes to be told your call centre is closed too. Thanks for the top customer service.

  • dovermonkey
    Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @zoebartlett Funny how @virginmedia say they have no access to accounts over social media yet yesterday I dealt with my issue finally over the same social media platform. They contradict themselves time after time.

  • jiginthebox
    Richard Esdale (@jiginthebox) reported from Dover, England

    @virginmedia Was half way through a conversation on text then suddenly a random one saying ive been added to a queue !!! Then silence for the rest of the evening... Ive had to instruct our bank to stop your payment the hopefully when you chase it you’ll rectify our issue😡😡

    Sean Pearson (@soapyrct) reported

    @virginmedia @DjmarkieT Why do you always ask people to DM you? You will just say there is nothing you can do so call the call centre. Also why is your service so bad? You are genuinely the worst company I have ever dealt with!

  • edujones14
    Ed Jones (@edujones14) reported

    I genuinely thought that @MercedesBenz had set an unbeatable standard for appalling customer service. @virginmedia “Hold my beer”

  • sharonmariahall
    Sharon Hall (@sharonmariahall) reported

    @virginmedia i emailed a complaint on your webform on 3 April. Why have i never received a reply? Please dont ask me to send you a direct message. I have and again, not received a response. Your customer service is non existent.

  • Gtmcdonald1996
    Glenn McDonald (@Gtmcdonald1996) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is shocking. I suggest you get someone to reach out to me and organise a phone call right now. You are very close to losing a customer Shocking!

    @Ofcom Can you do something about @virginmedia and their constant nuisance calls? Four so far today - it never ends

  • RNM1947
    Bob Moore (@RNM1947) reported

    @virginmedia @Craig_A_D Had 6-7 months of issues with my Virgin Media system, still payed my monthly bill and still waiting to be compensated. Not good enough.

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @virginmedia I assumed that by the way they seem to move about so frequently and wildly. What I would REALLY like to know is if somebody is ACTUALLY physically addressing the problem and genuinely working on it? I was asked to DM you yesterday, which I did, but haven't had ANY reply to that

  • Martinayres65o1
    Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported

    @virginmedia You passed me on to your customer service team. They arranged for a manager to ring me yesterday at 3:00pm who failed to do so
