  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia IT says there's no issues in the area, the speed test was done wirelessly. I have the hub in the same place I have always had the modems, hubs in. This issue has been ongoing ever since I received the newest hub. All wires are in tightly so it's not that. I have a new phone too

  • davetarl Dave Tarleton (@davetarl) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi RCG, I say hours, was just short of an hour! All sorted now. My gripe is there should be a cancel/leave option on the website saves ringing up and waiting when you are leaving no matter what.

  • HenseyP pet hen (@HenseyP) reported from Seaforth, England

    @ANIM3TA @virginmedia Doing it to my sister been charging her for all Bollywood showcase along with box nation , only found out about it this past month ,phoned up to say she has never known she had them ,never viewed ,, refusing to cancel them off ,won't listen or nothing ..appalling virgin

  • phanleyphotos Paul Hanley Photos (@phanleyphotos) reported from Prescot, England

    Moved from @virginmedia to @SkyUK but phone number hasn’t moved. @virginmedia say it’s possible to still port it and the response from @SkyUK - we don’t know how to do that, hang up and try to speak to someone else after 3 hours on the phone 🤬🤬🤬

  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I am seriously considering changing to another broadband company at the end of my contract because I feel I am not getting the best service from virgin anymore

  • cudda69 Denis Cudahy (@cudda69) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia absolute joke cancelled my contract beginning August because of issues ever since its been installed, looked at at my bill I'm still being charged, all equipment in a box so it's not used you have signed me up again for 12 month WTF #jokers

  • rayjono50 Ray Jono (@rayjono50) reported from Seaforth, England

    Just been holding on the phone for over 30 minutes to speak to a "human being" from Virgin Media" I lost the will to live and hung up. Will call tomorrow to tell them I will be leaving sick of their poor service.

  • markfrobi Mark Robinson (@markfrobi) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is abysmal. I am fed up of chatting to a robot or someone in india repeatedly asking me the same questions and getting absolutely nowhere. 3 engineer visits, many phonecalls, online chats (some not even answered) and still got nowhere.

  • JamesRead78 James Read (@JamesRead78) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia need to chat with someone about lowering my bill £100 per month is getting ridiculous! Tried using the chat function on the app but it's not working

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia @LadyHorkins Standard response from a truly shit company who tell lies and say an 82 yr old’s husband ordered sky films after he’d been dead for 9 months then deny any wrong doing in their internal enquiry. Then provide what I can only describe as a piss poor service ... don’t buy virgin

  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia So it's not the devices. As I say it's only since this new hub. All I get when I ring customer services is run these tests etc equipment working fine but there must be some underlying problem somewhere

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I’m on Facebook Messenger and three times I appear to have been passed around to another agent, three time’s being asked to provide my name and info. Then get told someone will be with me. This is really poor customer service. Come back @virginmedia, all is forgiven.

  • turnerjaksquin Jacqueline Turner (@turnerjaksquin) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia Hmmmm thought that might get your attention. Still took you 2 hours to reply though 😡 You used to be the best customer service. Not anymore. 55 minutes is not acceptable.

  • MrCRichardson Craig Richardson (@MrCRichardson) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia help help what do you need to do to get help from virgin media..😡😡😡😡

  • turnerjaksquin Jacqueline Turner (@turnerjaksquin) reported from Runcorn, England

    What a totally diabolical service @virginmedia 41 minutes and still not got sorted 😡 Now going to cancel our tv & phone package with you. You’re a joke. And will cancel my direct debit and make YOU wait 😡😡

  • kellyc76 kelly catchpole (@kellyc76) reported

    @virginmedia I was contacted by an independent adviser for Virgin I was not misinformed. You get a cheaper deal once you are through to cancellations- they call you. This is terrible service and I hope you lose your loyal customers through you ignorance.

  • SumiSenthi Sumi Senthi (@SumiSenthi) reported

    @virginmedia Hi! The service status page says there's a problem in the area and that it would be fixed by 3pm yesterday. Our broadband is still not working and I get an error when requesting updates. Would you be able to provide one? For W14

  • sexymanda30 Manda Tye (@sexymanda30) reported

    @virginmedia Take the damn charge off for YOUR rubbish wifi!!!!

  • ThatIanMay Ian May (@ThatIanMay) reported

    Kudos to @JohnLewisRetail @FitbitSupport and @virginmedia this morning. Humans are waaaay better at customer service than faceless websites and FAQs.

  • AndyType2 Andy (@AndyType2) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I am having problems with my hub. It went off last week for 4 days and could not reboot it. It is back on now but does not seem to be working properly (wifi very poor). Can you help?

  • petegreensit Peter Greensit (@petegreensit) reported

    @virginmedia Great if only the phone line where you can speak to a real human being instead of a bot or a WhatsApp that doesn’t connect! You have the worst customer service of every company I have ever used! Roll on may when my contract is up! Fault after fault leading to a router change

  • CallumNestor Callum Nestor (@CallumNestor) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried, get absolutely no where speak to people who don’t have a clue I’m just gonna cancel it. Thanks anyway

  • SumiSenthi Sumi Senthi (@SumiSenthi) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you! I rang the number and it says the problems will persist for a 'short time' and will be fixed 'as soon as possible'. Is there no chance finding anything less vague?

  • jade12344 Jade (@jade12344) reported

    @kirstyles @virginmedia I appreciate you may be trying to move on but these companies need to know how to fix things. My grandad just passed and if they told me to do any of these things I would prob end up arrested. Share your experience and make them learn x

  • sammy_pye Sam (@sammy_pye) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working! Wish I hadn’t switched! I’m now without Wi-Fi and tv!
