  • JelBoy1 JelPattenden (@JelBoy1) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia you send me emails for me no nominate stay connected stars when my internet is shockingly horrendous and you do nothing about it . Surely if you cannot provide me with a service I can leave !!

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @OpenreachHelp They have and have been told an engineer within 5 days. Can you not read? Your engineer has lied and so have you. You have 48hrs to activate my line or I will cancel @SkyUK and use @virginmedia who don’t use your **** engineers or infrastructure

  • CraigFamilyBlog Hayley Craig (@CraigFamilyBlog) reported from St Albans, England

    I’ve literally had no mobile service all day! @virginmedia sort it out. It’s made me feel anxious all day, as I could go into labour at any point! And no... before you say it, it’s not just my phone. It’s the whole area 😔

  • Nightingale_Lee lee nightingale (@Nightingale_Lee) reported from Northchurch, England

    Does anyone know someone that works at @virginmedia in a position within the broadband team that could help us get an assessment of our private road done for installation of their broadband. We’ve registered on their website and emailed them but not getting anywhere.

  • ScottWestron Scott Westron (@ScottWestron) reported from London Colney, England

    @BeanToast @skytv @virginmedia Wait till you encounter VM’s customer care ***********.

  • BenjiBoyW Ben Walsh (@BenjiBoyW) reported from Kimpton, England

    One time I got accosted by a @virginmedia person on a street, trying to get me to sign up. I told him there was no chance of that happening due to their awful customer service. He gave me a curse heavy reply, telling me how useless I was. I'm still with Sky.

  • 848Jake Jake Kirby (@848Jake) reported from Toddington, England

    @virginmedia for 3 days now I have had no television due to you admin error. Yesterday you managed to connect the broadband but still no TV - worst customer service I have ever experienced and for so much money. Cannot see why I should continue with you

  • MikeJoiner1965 Mike (@MikeJoiner1965) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Sorry for late reply. I know my sim contract is about to end. When I tried CS I explained the issue I have. I asked if I could cancel the sim when the contract expires during that call. He told me a date to call back. Because of memory issues I forget date.

  • Matt_Davies_01 Matt Davies (@Matt_Davies_01) reported from Heath and Reach, England

    .@virginmedia quite possibly the most appalling customer service in the UK, bar none! After calling 3mths ago to cancel a phone contract after a friend died, the number still rings yet today to wait 24hrs for it to cancel! Plus, they want the password from the deceased! 🤬

  • sharkbaitza David Harley (@sharkbaitza) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia pls can you send me the contact number for your help line? The app just gives a covid message but no number.

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @SkyHelpTeam This is a new contract I have taken out with you and it’s not a good start. If it’s not resolved within 48hrs I will cancel and go with Virgin media who don’t use openreach.

  • PaulClayton25 Paul Clayton (@PaulClayton25) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia #virginmobile last night I was disgusted in your customer service when talking on phone. So you advised me to use the messaging service, what a great service.

  • Maz_1977 Mariam (@Maz_1977) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia the absolute worst WiFi provider

  • cr10123 Craig (@cr10123) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia is down again!

  • simon_lailey Simon Lailey (@simon_lailey) reported from Aylesbury Vale, England

    I forgot how crap @virginmedia are when you have a fault at home. Customer experience is shocking #CX , get treated like dirt. Must move to another provider this time around I think 😡

  • Edgarcia2Edwin Edwin (@Edgarcia2Edwin) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @RachelHazey @virginmedia @AitchandAitchBe I'm cancelling mine too. This company is the worst of its kind. Customer service is diabolical and I've had enough. Never again.

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @SkyHelpTeam My broadband was due to be activated by @OpenreachHelp yesterday. The engineer has marked it as a completed job yet I have no active line and have been told to wait up to 5 days for it to be checked. You have 48hrs to fix it or il cancel and go with @virginmedia

  • Kevkenny73 Kevin Fuller (@Kevkenny73) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia no one answers your phones, online web chat cut me off after 4 hrs waiting and you don’t reply to my messages on here! What do I need to do to get help from you guys, it’s a joke!!

  • RussellMoss Russell Moss (@RussellMoss) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @virginmedia hello, can someone please contact me about my billing query ASAP. I am being overcharged and I can’t seem to get any help

  • Kevkenny73 Kevin Fuller (@Kevkenny73) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia why cannot I speak to anyone ! 5 days ... 4 hours on a chat and a promise of a txt link ! Terrible customer service @sky coming to you !

  • sarihuttunen Sari Huttunen💙 (@sarihuttunen) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, I am still working on it. Currently on a conversation with a third agent on the matter, this time on WhatsApp. This is extremely time consuming + draining way to sort out issues. The agent is now on 60min break from our convo….😳🙈and in all honesty, I despair…

  • RuthSocial Ruth O'Brien (@RuthSocial) reported

    Anyone recommend decent broadband in East London? Been having constant @virginmedia issues for weeks. It’s disrupting the ability to work from home and costing us extra £ on hot spotting. Fed up with them now, neighbours having issues too.

  • linda_uk Linda Roy (@linda_uk) reported

    @virginmedia are your staff taught how to lie? Or are they born liars? Promise after promise and all it would take is the call back I was promised? Why say they will call back and never ever do.

  • pchee2 Joanne Murphy (@pchee2) reported

    @virginmedia How about the fact that I want to leave penalty free as you cannot provide the service promised ?

  • MattX1971 Matt (@MattX1971) reported

    @virginmedia Waste of time as that is never updated with this problem - your infrastructure is ****. Yet again I CANNOT DO MY JOB BECAUSE OF YOUR ****** NETWORK. £50 a month for this total garbage - not worth it.

  • steversims Steve Sims (@steversims) reported

    @virginmedia hey I’ve had no WiFi all morning. Site say no issues. How can I contact VM and book an engineer??

  • cTophe64 Christophe (@cTophe64) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have already checked that + what VM’s Hub 3 colour coding means and It is daft at best. Flashing or solid green should never mean there is a fault !

  • SAnnakin16 Stu Annakin (@SAnnakin16) reported from Northallerton, England

    @virginmedia Yes we have and never been charged! Clearly I’m not impressed.

  • LRMphotos L.R.M Photography (@LRMphotos) reported

    @sainsburys hi, your online site is broken. When you click on amend order you get a sorry technical issues page and it logs u out. Frustrating as could be without broadband tomorrow due to virgin media so trying to amend Wed booked delivery

  • Realregentskid Regents-k-i-d (@Realregentskid) reported

    @virginmedia Yes both times, they never actually tell me the issue they just say “engineers are working on a fix” with no actual details. Was promised it’ll be fixed tomorrow so we’ll see.
