  • debswild DEBS WILD (@debswild) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia You are way too late! You ignored a bunch of us yesterday when we had outage for over 24 hours. Suddenly the mention of @BBCWatchdog & you're interested. Nah. Forget it. After chasing for hours, the eventual information was - as usual - vague & inaccurate.

  • smokinghawt Yeankarh (@smokinghawt) reported from Luton, England

    @a_kiwi_fox @ameliadenys @virginmedia At least in the 80s we knew there were limited modes of communication. In 2019, customer service is key 🔑 so thy should have found a way to communicate with us even if it means liasing with another competing network.

  • MurrayAlanLee DREAMVIEW ESTATES (@MurrayAlanLee) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia PS, This is on your pages "As with any total loss of service, if we’re not able to resolve the problem within 2 full working days from you contacting us, we’ll start to automatically credit your first bill at £8 per day until it’s fixed."

  • AlexGrocott1 Alex Grocott (@AlexGrocott1) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia been on hold in excess of an hour trying to talk to someone to assist with setting up my hub, this is disgraceful and already a poor start for a new customer #nothappy #shouldhavestuckwithsky

  • rebmit1 Tim Kirkby (@rebmit1) reported from Wendover, England

    @virginmedia extremely dissatisfied, disappointed with the customer service I have recevied today. I have had repeated issues with My WiFi, mitliple phone calls, two engineers and I still have a poor service. Customer services said today they cannot help. Brilliant... #fuming

  • JLTFC Skinny John (@JLTFC) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia To be fair got through after about 35 mins & they resolved my issue quickly & I was very happy with outcome, just a bit frustrated @ time because of hanging on phone for so long.

  • ClaireBoyles 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗕𝗼𝘆𝗹𝗲𝘀, Success-Matters.com (@ClaireBoyles) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia Looking at that link is useless it's not 4G or 3G I have a problem with, it's voice calls not data

  • scottsgirls25 amanda manning (@scottsgirls25) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia I have been on chat for over 90 min trying to ask your agent why an issue in my area is still not resolved. Your agent has taken two hours to tell me there is no fault reported yet it is shown on your website and basically called me a liar. 😡

  • mcgolding1970 Mark Golding (@mcgolding1970) reported from St Albans, England

    @Classicbritcom @virginmedia To get out of the contract. Even though I had been a customer for 5 years!

  • mahdi Mahdi Taghizadeh (@mahdi) reported from London Colney, England

    Can’t believe that getting a home broadband in London is such a pain in the neck! @virginmedia said they don’t offer the service at my building while they didn’t even bother to call me back and inform me, I waited 10 minutes on the line to hear this shit from them!

  • johnr_shirley John Shirley (@johnr_shirley) reported from Luton, England

    @tweetlch @virginmedia @maclean132 How rude....

  • phemmynice iam_Phemmy_Nice® 👻 (@phemmynice) reported from London Colney, England

    British media want a virgin and saint to be next PM...... why this a news for GODSAKE!!!! As if that lady who asked that stupid foolish question is a saint.... WTF!!!!

  • minimonte Simon Mead (@minimonte) reported from Dunstable, England

    @virginmedia are drinking in the last chance saloon! 3rd engineer visit today to fix shonky broadband which has been going on for months. Fix it or we’re off. Sick of hearing #ourtestsaretakingalittlelongerthanexpected

  • TallulahB4 Tallulah B (@TallulahB4) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia It was for landline and broadband. After hanging on for 25 minutes I gave up and put the phone down. You are currently charging me £59 a month whereas Sky have offered me a package for £26 a month

  • PaulGreenLaner Paul Freeman (@PaulGreenLaner) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia absolutely appalling customer service cannot get through on the phone, no broadband or TV since yesterday evening not on.

  • Helenjaneslaw Helen Lawrence (@Helenjaneslaw) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    Unacceptable @virginmedia!!! My husband bought an EE phone and now following the migration he can't use it so has no phone. Virgin mobile's response "buy another phone". No help whatsoever. Terrible customer service.

  • AliB79 Ali B (@AliB79) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @kitkatpeggy @virginmedia @susankmann Switch to 853 as a temporary solution.

  • Halo1975 Simon Hale (@Halo1975) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia television service not available no channels whatsoever error code (W02) #virginmedia

  • nathanmladin Nathan Mladin (@nathanmladin) reported from London Colney, England

    .@virginmedia: Nathan, ‘you deserve so much more’ (i.e. a glitzier phone, a bigger mobile plan etc). Me: ‘No, I don’t and I don’t care for your meritocratic marketing crap.’

  • MurrayAlanLee DREAMVIEW ESTATES (@MurrayAlanLee) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Seems he went to rear of building He was told to call and there is a NOTE there, IGNORED IT despite being told at customer services

  • sophie_yxx Sophie Yates (@sophie_yxx) reported

    @virginmedia you are meant to open up a page to type up notes on your system during the conversation with a customer. If they don’t do this it is then down to them to remember a conversation, sometimes quite lengthy, & record it AFTER the event &it’s their word against mine..

  • Apao_ Adam Banville (@Apao_) reported

    @virginmedia we are experiencing broadband issues all day. No one available in your customer care team on a Sunday. This is unacceptable! can you advise when the broadband will be working again?

  • PanosHadji Panos Hadji (@PanosHadji) reported

    @virginmedia Best way to get an update that the issues have been fixed?

  • sophie_yxx Sophie Yates (@sophie_yxx) reported

    @virginmedia Apparently the operatives who answer the phone may not be directly employed by Virgin Media; have not been given enough time to train properly and do not always make notes during a telephone conversation-u are not allowed a pen&paper! No wonder you have a problem!

  • zoltrix67 Locked in (@zoltrix67) reported

    @virginmedia is useless. Every day 4 hours and more down and they say no issues. Liars

  • mike666b Mike Burnett (@mike666b) reported

    @virginmedia There’s nothing in the link that is of any help. I have no intermittent internet via the hub and the only way I can view a tv program without suffering from appalling picture quality is by turning the hub off

  • _bigrm ★UNRULY★ (@_bigrm) reported

    @virginmedia Messing with the internet, all of a sudden it’s very slow and just rebooting itself throughout the day and night because we ain’t taking ur new deals?. So we’re now paying for a service we ain’t receiving ?. I ain’t filling nothing in online either, we’re switching.

  • sophie_yxx Sophie Yates (@sophie_yxx) reported

    @virginmedia I have sorted that one out. Problem is when your operatives don’t understand English and are dishonest and then you allegedly cannot find the phone call that will prove my point. Your notes do not reflect actual conversations ..

  • sophie_yxx Sophie Yates (@sophie_yxx) reported

    @virginmedia God help the customer if your operative doesn’t understand English or is dishonest, it is still their word against mine. Atrocious unaccountable system. Totally lacking in customer care…

  • alidivani alijoon 💙 (@alidivani) reported

    Can anyone point me to a more useless internet service provider than @virginmedia? Anyone?...Anyone at all? ....No? Well, that's it then. @virginmedia gets the prize.
