    Tony P (@WorTony) reported from Selston, England

    Hey @virginmedia I’m really loving the customer service - called 2 weeks ago to report a broken remote - I was told a new one would be on the way. I’m still waiting. I called yesterday and was told the email address I was giving and have had registered for 15-20 years was wrong

  • dawesje
    James Dawes (@dawesje) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia just like to say what a load of rubbish your service is! And I’m not even with you

  • pdenno
    Paul Dennison (@pdenno) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia why call me twice today, tell me I am a valued customer (22 yrs) and offer me a broadband speed not yet available in my area!! Once again a waste of my time and yours. I would feel more valued if you call and offer me a small saving on my monthly bill! 🤔

  • GodberKen
    Ken Godber (@GodberKen) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia You couldn't make this incompetence up - had another call, chasing 2 mths costs for a phone not used in over 2 yrs, unable to cancel via website or previous Twitter conversation, and then cuts me off. It's a mthly sim only, if I don't use it don't charge me - simples.

    @virginmedia We have an engineer booked for Monday but I don't believe this is really acceptable with the amount of money we pay each month we should be able to expect a service which works, I understand there will be issues but over 3 hours later nothing?

    @AnnavsAnna1 @virginmedia The routers are terrible and not fit for purpose.

  • derbytrim

    @virginmedia poor customer service i can't cancel my contract online and cant get through on the phone after 30 minutes waiting , ironic for a media company.

    @virginmedia Hi, we are having issues connecting to the wifi throughout the house. The room the hub is in is good but the rest of the house is very poor, we have our children complaining that their games consoles won’t connect or buffering and glitching and it’s costing us a fortune.

    @marc1box @leonagraham @virginmedia Those lights say it's the Internet. I'm lucky here, been with Virgin since it was diamond cable and NTL and only 128kb/s. Probably only had a few days down in all that time and one of this was a failed router. Not cheap though

    @virginmedia I tried - I assume it doesn't work on a mobile!?

  • iRacing74
    DJ Knight 🇬🇧 (@iRacing74) reported from Sandiacre, England

    With public service cuts, why do we year upon year pay more Council Tax for less service? Virgin Media put their prices, but do not reduce my service - If they did I'd cancel the service. We are legally obliged to pay more for less - go figure 🤷

  • bigbrawbill
    Lord William Niven (@bigbrawbill) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia I am sorry, but what a shocking customer service, hardly speaking a word of english, patronising me as if I am setting it up wrong and going over what I have already done. Can I have someone english explain what us wrong. !!!!!

  • rigg0o
    RIGGO (@rigg0o) reported from Eastwood, England

    Class when you wanna cancel @virginmedia and the gobshite operater cant get it in her thick skull and barraging you with other shite deals to then put the phone down. Times must be hard for mr branson, please liquidate.

  • Andyoram25
    Andy Oram (@Andyoram25) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    Trying to watch #LIVWOL but pic quality on ITV4 is awful. Tried ITV X app & not any better. The Virgin Media ITV X app isn't working. This is poor but not unexpected from ITV who just cannot do digital stuff.

    @virginmedia There isn’t an outage. I have been told it may be a line fault but the hub was fine yesterday afternoon

  • haasty_kawa

    @virginmedia any chance you could hire call centre staff that don’t hang up the phone after 3 seconds in an attempt to bring their AHT down?

  • Jdd535
    John D (@Jdd535) reported from Stapleford, England

    Any chance virgin media can sort their network out.. paying for over 300mbps n only getting 46mbps!! #VirginMediaoutage #virginmediauk #virginmedia

    @virginmedia Hello! I have an engineer visit booked but it’s not on the app. I’ve raised a complaint about that but my complaint isn’t on the app. I started a live chat and was asked to move it to WhatsApp’s, but didn’t receive any comms. How can I get any response from Virgin?

  • KevCrane41
    Kev Crane (@KevCrane41) reported

    @BonesE78 @virginmedia I have the same reply, I've sent them a dozen messages, including photos and videos of the streaming box not working but my Alexa still able to say date and time. Not interested, just saying I have to call them from my landline, I don't have one. The service is pathetic.

    Helen Bailey (@helenbaileyuk) reported

    @virginmedia neither myself nor my husband have received any emails today (we have ntlworld email addresses) and even ones we've sent to ourselves from other accounts haven't come through. Is there an issue with emails?

    @LeilaniDowding @EE No idea Leilani. My elderly mother in law had issues last month with her virgin media line. It was down for 4 days, luckily she only lives around the corner.

    @virginmedia No virgin services in Thornbury today with phone, tv and broadband all down. 2nd time this week and been down for almost 12 hours. Please explain the issue in bs35

    @MelJanie @virginmedia Virgin Media are up there for any worst customer service award! They took 3 weeks to restore our connection, promised us compensation (promises we were able to obtain a recording of), refused to pay that compensation and then fought us every step of the way. Dreadful.
