🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England@virginmedia It's not a problem at my end, and it's not just me affected. Have you really not noticed a flurry of people saying the same thing? I know people in different areas of the UK who have the same problems at the same times.
-
Mike Yau (@MikeYau8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia So I expected a call today before 12pm from business team I also logged a call back on the website for one of the team to call me before 12pm. Engineer on Friday said someone would call in the morning it’s now just gone after 12 and I am still waiting? This is poor?!

W. W. L. D. ? He'd stay at home. (@RobLow_7) reported from Sacriston, England@OffMyNoodles @virginmedia Many years ago, the way @virginmedia treated me, I vowed never to have anything to do with them from that day. Never have done, never will do.

🕷️🇪🇺 🇬🇧 Uitlander (@Uitlander) reported@virginmedia - So call customer service. 20 minutes on hold. Finally talk to a human. - Apparently all my renewal offers have expired (they are still showing in the app) - Would I like to renew at 3x the price I am paying.? NO
-
Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reportedTo @virginmedia- Many thanks to your Technician who came out today following the outage in my area. Although I was back online by this time he checked over all the equipment and settings, and also discovered that the router needed changing-which he did - very polite and efficient man. I don’t use my real name on here for safety and security reasons, but if you want to send me a DM, I will let you know.
-
Berk (@trapdoor456) reported@virginmedia @RicardoEyes Maybe show decent customer service when you are contacted about issues initially, not just when people have had enough & leave 🤷
-
🇬🇧🔥 FIRE is awesome 😎 (@GrahamCompton) reported@CompoundingISA @MartinSLewis @ao Such short sighted customer service experience. I's like dealing with Virgin Media 10 years ago. I had to tell them 2-3 times that yes, I really did want to cancel. Thankfully, I was only on hold for a few minutes.
-
Simon Vargeson (@Si_Vargeson) reported@virginmedia is it usual practice to delay installations without communicating to your new customers? You’ve currently missed 2 instal dates and no comms to let me know to avoid waiting at home for your arrival…. Customer service seem to be unable to provide any detail too😡
-
UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported@Edeaulx @virginmedia Having worked in telecoms I can vouch for the fact that Virgin Media's customer service is atrocious and I'd argue is the worst in the industry. I would never be a customer of theirs ever again.
