    @virginhelp @Virgin Sorry,yeah it’s Virgin Media. Just waited an hour on Wednesday and it’s over half an hour now I can’t wait any longer owing to an appointment but I need some help as soon as possible Thankyou

    @virginmedia fed up with slow cable broadband since lockdown. The money I pay you is not worth it for the bad service! You should be refunding my charges #Disgraceful #notreliable

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact your call centre for 15 minutes and I’ve tried all the options and I can’t get through to ANYONE!! I want to cancel my contract and it doesn’t give you the option online to do so!! Can someone cancel it from your social media team?

    Hayley Jenkins (@HayleyJenkins21) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia your website will not let me into your account to do a speed test (our broad band is getting slower and slower). It won’t let me reset the password and instead gets stuck in a loop resetting the reset password- absolutely infuriating. Had this problem four years now!

    Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia hey virgin media - when I'm told a final figure on my account and find out the agent lied and gave me a higher figure and then your complaint team tell me not to worry it'll be sorted. My contract finished on 30/3 but you've still taken a full month's payment (1/2)

  • Thejollyevfan
    The Jolly EV Fan (now living up in the North) (@Thejollyevfan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia DM me so I can give contact details. Don’t think it would cause a problem but I’d worry about affecting neighbours services or possible future services should we come back to you.

    Jacob Ham (@JacobAlderHam) reported from Coundon, England

    @scottcvrroll @virginmedia It's mental like, I know there's shit going on but when everyones at home you'd think they'd try to get on top of it asap.

    @virginmedia To investigate the problem with my broadband hub.

  • Corney77
    Paul Corney (@Corney77) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia the level of service I’m reviewing from yourselves is disgraceful. None interested in trying to deal with my issue. Just been hung up on AGAIN. Please can someone contact me to help.

  • Johnsonator85
    Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Ffs YOU try calling that number and tell me if you get through to somebody. I’ve tried god knows how many times and I just get a machine telling me you’re busy and that I “might like to call again later” every, single time. Your level of service is a joke.

  • m_arthur1
    mick arthur (@m_arthur1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia @d754771 I’m still waiting for the call aswell I know it’s a bad time with call centres closed but come on Sunday I was told 24hrs

  • gaznolan
    Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia fully and reasonably, the agent response was "oh okay" and put the phone down. How do I make a formal complaint about the atrocious service you guys offer? (2/2)

  • simonmp68
    SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’m using a lot of data trying to sort this out as no internet. I feel like I’m going mad. Your company says ask us for help during these difficult times yet I have and have been treat really shabbily. I’m so frustrated and angry please help me

  • Johnsonator85
    Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Media, I want to cancel

  • oliverpostgate
    Chris Lyons (@oliverpostgate) reported from Darlington, England

    @sophiamcoutts @virginmedia Don’t hold your breath. I’ve had an official complaint logged with them since July and am still waiting for a conversation, never mind a resolution #virginmedia

    @RMT3N @virginmedia @FortniteGame @SkyUK I’m actually moaning about a service I pay for but I mean it’s not you pays for my bills I do, so piss off keyboard warrior 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

  • richarddbaker
    Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia Ah, so I do have to wait a week to get my broadband service back then! I was tantalisingly close to being able to do my job! Will have to inform my employers I guess!

  • SiClayton
    Simon Clayton (@SiClayton) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Absolutely atrocious service AGAIN from @virginmedia - broadband, TV, telephone - all down and Tuesday is the earliest anybody can be bothered to come out - from one of the largest telecoms companies in the UK 😡😡😡

    @virginmedia funny no response to my previous tweet. Feel sorry for my parents what do you class as an emergency? If waiting until 14th April is your next appt? My poor parents.

  • campion_steve
    Steve Campion (@campion_steve) reported

    Virgin media hub has failed. Nobody to answer phone other than their chat bot Which asks for all your details then tells you they are closed. Epic fail in customer service! #virginmedia

  • MRSRIZZI
    Vicky Rizzi (@MRSRIZZI) reported

    @virginmedia how can you disconnect all of our services without permission of the bill payer and leave us with no service as you thought we had moved house? We are 5 days numerous phone calls and still without any supply at all and pay £119 a month for the so called privilege.

    rick_x (@rick_x) reported

    @virginmedia Those are not convenient, why not fix your broken web form?

  • formerprisoner_
    Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported

    . @virginmedia are the most useless, care-less, let down of a company in existence. If you are considering going with them for broadband. Please don’t. Their technicians do half a job, cancel a thousand times and their customer support is outsourced to some foreign country.

    TNT Sports quality on Virgin Media has been absolutely pathetic of late. Leeds vs West Ham game had audio issues and the picture on Real vs Bayern keeps cutting out. Great stuff 👍

  • pokerchamp_Cbbo
    Cububo (@pokerchamp_Cbbo) reported

    @koenjideck Only worked well for me in recent years, but it gave me a decade of packet loss and outages before then 😵‍💫 I remember playing games with people on my street at uni, and half the people would disconnect in a lobby whenever Virgin Media had an outage 🥀

  • ConnorsOldMan
    Just Ian (@ConnorsOldMan) reported

    @virginmedia I've not sorted a new provider yet but have cancelled my virgin services already. Your company is not interested in sorting customers out with what they want, rather than making them keep a service they don't need. I was told i needed to keep my phone for Internet!

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler @O2 now I’ve got some guy called Dinesh who claims to be a complaints manager who doesn’t understand my complaint at all who is wasting time I asked for your resolutions team to contact me!!!
