    @virginmedia are up there with the worst companies for customer service. Their IVR is infuriating, they hang up on you when you do manage to get through and then tell you there is no way to make a complaint ! @Ofcom do you regulate these clowns 🤡

    @ladyjaney75 @WhichUK When Virgin Media install VOIP phone lines I believe they stick some kind of SIM in for if the network is down, when the engineer knows it is a vulnerable/elderly user from when I asked previously.

  • Yuz6Yusof
    Md Yuzaiful Md Yusof (@Yuz6Yusof) reported from Leeds, England

    Having been a loyal customer for 4 years with @virginmedia, I have been lied to by customer service. They applied a different package than what agreed on phone. Violation of customer’s right! Rang 3 times since to complain but nothing has been done! Disgraceful @VirginMediaCorp

  • paul_phillips83

  • JayDS87
    Jay Smith (@JayDS87) reported from Halifax, England

    @virginmedia Service status website page won’t load even on my phone service provider. I have reset my router twice. Still happening.

    Jordan (@jordfcs) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia what’s the best deal you can do me please 🙏🏼 sky are having my life with the rubbish connection, internet never working and shocking customer services, a manager doesn’t even stick to their word of calling me back. Week 3 of my issues not getting resolved!

  • astolante
    Louise🐦🐝🌵🧀🐌 (@astolante) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia No, it wasn't clear that a different socket was needed, so rather than have to arrange for an engineer to visit, I cancelled the service. I still have the hardware and am happy to return it

    Saffy Saffron(i will be a writer 1day🤞🏼🤞🏼 ) (@saffysaffron) reported from Wrose, England

    @Riz1Rehman @shuhel_miah86 @virginmedia They charge enough through the nose for a rubbish service. Might as well use pigeon post. It would be faster

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

  • Jp_Leeson
    John Leeson (@Jp_Leeson) reported from Wibsey, England

    @virginmedia Yeah he turned up unannounced and left then after several calls got another engineer out who said the fibre cable is snapped and needs replacing and he could not give me a date or time as his emails on his pda are not working so I guess it’s left in the hands of the gods

  • Hannahlufc
    Hannah Louise (@Hannahlufc) reported from Leeds, England

    @JamesTurner37 @virginmedia I’m in Leeds and woke up to my ring alarm having gone on and off all through the night, not working properly this morning defo some broadband issues

  • andy_english
    Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 Yay, let’s all mess about trying to sign in to the app on your laptop, to find a HDMI cable, plugging that bugger in and then hoping to all things holy that it actually connects whilst missing the first half of the game you’re trying to watch as opposed to Virgin actually fix it!

    @virginmedia @jrdOvn And this is why I’m cancelling my contract. Shocking service.

  • WolfofX
    Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reported

    In 2003, Stan Beaton lost his wife Ruby to cancer. But there was one small piece of her he could still hold onto. Her voice. Ruby had recorded the outgoing voicemail greeting on their home phone around 2001. After she died, Stan deliberately kept it. In the difficult years that followed, whenever he was feeling particularly low, he could pick up the phone and hear her voice again. He even avoided changing phone providers because he was afraid the recording might disappear. Then, in December 2014, it did. Technical work involving Virgin Media's voicemail system caused Ruby's recording to vanish. Stan was devastated. After protecting it for more than a decade, he believed the sound of his wife's voice was gone for good. When Virgin Media learned what the recording meant to him, a team of engineers began searching through their systems. They initially thought the chances of recovering it were extremely small. They searched for three days. Then they found it. In January 2015, BBC Radio Leeds was there as Stan heard the recovered recording for the first time. The moment Ruby's voice came through, he recognized her immediately. "That's her." Stan broke down in tears. He later described hearing her again as a "wonderful, wonderful sound." Virgin Media also gave him a permanent copy of the recording, so he would never have to rely on the voicemail system to keep it safe again. Ruby had recorded nothing extraordinary. It was simply an everyday greeting for their home telephone. Fourteen years later, that ordinary little recording had become something Stan thought he would never hear again.

    @colonbarbarian @virginmedia @SkyUK I got a deal of them via email a few years back. Gigabyte sports movies there hole package for £60. Then my bill came in around 190. They tired to get out of it by saying I never accept it. About 6 hours on the phone and they finally said they where.

    @virginmedia as usual Virgin media lets me down when I need it. Trying to watch the West Ham game and am in an impossible loop as my passkey is not recognised, it doesn’t actually show how or why and then the link does nothing. Pathetic as usual what a waste of money
