  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BankerJase @virginmedia I’ve yet to deal with a Virgin Media team that provide decent customer service. Which is why I’ve given up on TV/Telephone. Broadband will only last if they maintain a service.

  • scgough §↯mØn (@scgough) reported from Birmingham, England

    Anyone else experiencing DNS issues for certain sites. UK based. I’m getting unresolved errors via virgin media net but ok via mobile data. #dns #networking

  • tonymartin82211 tonymartin (@tonymartin82211) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia up to their scams again and when you get through all the button pressing on the phone and are past from one to another then when you start asking questions they hang up .

  • 2108blondie Sasha Swapp (@2108blondie) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Used to work for the company know all about rebooting after a fix. Just done *** and TiVo box again whilst still waiting for someone to answer the phone and it still doesn’t work. Absolutely shocking

  • bevvyxo_ ✨ Hannah ✨ (@bevvyxo_) reported from Solihull, England

    Spent 45 mins on the phone to @virginmedia to agree a new contract. I didn’t receive the confirmation email as agreed so rang up to check only to be hold there was no record of it and they couldn’t honour it. 10/10 customer service there 🙄

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ChrisScottBtn I’m fed up of this process year on year with an ongoing problematic service. Three complaints, two left unanswered. And then the onus is on you to chase! I cannot be bothered with them anymore. That’s the level customer service I’ve come to expect from @virginmedia now.

  • Kal_Ajimal Kal Ajimal (@Kal_Ajimal) reported from Solihull, England

    How hard is it to report a problem to my landline telephone @virginmedia totally ridiculous been on hold 30 minutes

  • corbettcollins Ash Corbett-Collins (@corbettcollins) reported from Birmingham, England

    @gaz112 @virginmedia That'll be the same @virginmedia that sends passwords out by post, complete with other sign in information. They're pretty much a joke at this point.

  • gorman_wba Liam O'Gorman (@gorman_wba) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Your an absolute joke of a company, you charge me £50 a month for broadband and it hasn’t worked for the last 2 months, 4 people in our street have the same problem but yet when an engineer comes out they claim they’ve fixed it when they havent,sort it out,disgrace.

  • hiltonleanne79 Leanne (@hiltonleanne79) reported from Birmingham, England

    Does anybody actually work at @virginmedia Customer Services! Have been on hold for over 20 mins on phone and is the second time I’ve had to call, no response on messaging either! Can anyone from @virginmedia assist before I raise this further with CEO @TomMockridgeVM

  • EgglestonMathew Mat 🏳️‍🌈 (@EgglestonMathew) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s been an issue since we had it installed . Had 3 engineers visit. Never works at full speed

  • BrummieGem Lady Gemma (@BrummieGem) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia need to change their hold music - I’ve just listened to the same song 3 times!!! 😤 I’m sure they just want me to put the phone down!!! 🙉

  • hiltonleanne79 Leanne (@hiltonleanne79) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m sure you’re really sorry...sorted now without any help from yourselves. I do hope your CEO is aware of how shockingly abysmal your customer service is and I speak from experience.

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    I can’t call you because @ThreeUKSupport are providing a crap service and have been for 3 weeks because of a bit of rain! Time to have a chat with @virginmedia @O2 @VodafoneUK I think, neither #Sky not #Three value customers. @Three_Is_Broken

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s only been in the past few weeks that it’s gotten so bad. I was getting updates 2 weeks ago from @EE saying they were doing work in my area, but have heard nothing since. Shame you don’t have wi-fi calling

  • carl_morgan3 carl morgan (@carl_morgan3) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia is there an issue with services in the B90 area. Cheers

  • gjw1603 Gary Webber (@gjw1603) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Price rises, overseas call centers, the time spent on the phone listening to the nausiating voice. Suggest you look at social media and learn about your shocking reputation and customer service. Im out !!

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Tried the text service. No response. So in the unlikely event of an engineer visit later, at least I tried.

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ll try texting. I only have 1 bar of signal

  • markshawnwo mark shaw (@markshawnwo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia internet down in Birmingham checked with reported issues and not known anything else reported it

  • CM_GMR CantankerousMan/Cryspy M&M-GMR (@CM_GMR) reported

    @WayVex_ @virginmedia Not sure if you live near me but I know three are doing works and having issues til Friday so virgin might be the same 😔

  • danjack1871 Daniel Jackson (@danjack1871) reported

    @virginmedia I booked an appointment this evening (for Friday morning), but didn’t book one beforehand as I was specifically told by your customer service that there was a problem in my area and engineers were working on it? Is there no record of this?

  • Snappersnap Matt (@Snappersnap) reported

    @virginmedia You really are taking the mickey I clicked on that and it brings me back to exactly the same service I've been trying to contact for the last 4 weeks

  • Herbert79Kerry Kerry Herbert- (@Herbert79Kerry) reported

    @virginmedia Yep! And had a signal sent down from the team.. still a problem

  • ColdJustice_ Claire Hooton BSc, PGDip (@ColdJustice_) reported

    @Virgin media. I really am growing tired of you charging me £120 a month yet being unable to provide me with the service I pay for. My TV box keeps randomly reseting itself & taking half an hour to reload & the pic has been terrible all night! #NothingNew #TimeForAChange

  • TheBn102 Bn102 (@TheBn102) reported

    @virginmedia I am and have been since December 2016. Your marketing team decide to harass me from time to time despite my preferences, but this is by far the worst.

  • denimscott DENIM (@denimscott) reported

    @virginmedia Was msg along lines of "no longer available". Have been told it's the channel provider who's done this. 851 & 852 have gone from yourselves. We can now watch recordings from the stations, so something has changed from earlier. Issue now would be that HD takes up a lot of space.

  • danjack1871 Daniel Jackson (@danjack1871) reported

    @virginmedia I was told there was no need for me to book an appointment as engineers were working on the issue

  • ripsaw_ellis Richard ‘Ripsaw’ Ellis (@ripsaw_ellis) reported

    @virginmedia No that won’t be possible. I have read that this is a virgin issue and not an Apple issue

  • outsideinside3 Dave 'Maxie Mac’ - building a metaverse life. (@outsideinside3) reported

    @JBrindle21 @virginmedia The worst thing is, the guy showed up yesterday to install but rather than ring my doorbell he thought it easier to pretend he did.
