    Hey @virginmedia, please install fibre lines in Mow Cop (ST7) so I can get rid of PlusNet. Had to change from Virgin Broadband when we moved, and I never had a single issue. Sick of PlusNet outages now.

  • FowldsSimon Santa Sime 🎅🏻🎄 (@FowldsSimon) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia why was I not informed of changes to my package. I’ve got the full house package which included kids tv. Name changed to maxit and now no kids Tv. Thank god we have amazon and Netflix which has kids stuff on. Don’t watch either on Virgin as it’s so slow.

  • HibbsA Anthony Hibbs (@HibbsA) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @Paulout @BT @virginmedia I can’t believe how bad BT have been over this. Advisors just seem to want to keep you talking even after taking 20+ mins to get through and then do nothing for you. Proper fed up 🙁

  • DWA2005 Dave Ashurst (@DWA2005) reported from Knutsford, England

    @virginmedia spent hours on the phone trying to sort out an extension to my account, to find being charged more than was confirmed. To say customer service is woeful is an understatement

  • JuPo71 Julie Podet (@JuPo71) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed with your level of service to an elderly disabled customer. Drafting a complaint that will be with your shortly.

  • Texasally6 Alistair Walker (@Texasally6) reported from Macclesfield, England

    Being shit at customer sevices is not unique but @virginmedia take it to a special level of ****

  • JuPo71 Julie Podet (@JuPo71) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia your service is very poor for older people. Almost an hour and still not resolved my mum’s issues!

  • imandywelsh Andy Welsh 🍕 (@imandywelsh) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Don't worry you're rep is long gone! It was just the worst timing to rock up & block our extremely tight side road 👌🏻

  • moorland2 Moorland (@moorland2) reported from Endon, England

    If @virginmedia try and flog you 1 of these let me know, I’ve had them for 2 yrs and they have been nothing but crap from the get go

  • Mountain1863 Shaun Mountain (@Mountain1863) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia Not even a DM asking for contact details to discuss further @Ofcom & @CISASUK have been informed and will be supporting with furthering my complaint. Hopefully my followers will see these tweets and avoid your black Friday sales 👌👍 even if only one person avoids the #scammers

  • Knightfight7 David Knight (@Knightfight7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia £100 per month for WiFi that is virtually unusable and tv where five of my paid sports channels and three movie channels are unwatchable.Shocking service

  • JuPo71 Julie Podet (@JuPo71) reported from Crewe, England

    @virginmedia It took over 50 mins to get through to receive no relevant assistance or guidance. However no problem in taking the DD of £100 every month !!

    @virginmedia None of that shit, that's an absolute fact, trust me.

    @virginmedia What is your assurance worth to me? I've called for 2 months, your chat function doesn't work, I've lodged complaints via your site Stop fobbing your customers off

  • Novaish73 Lee (@Novaish73) reported

    @virginmedia I was on text chat for 6 days! When I didn’t reply to a message within 5 minutes and on one occasion 2 minutes, I was sent back to the beginning to repeat again every 24 hours. Incredibly poor. Eventually I found someone more helpful than the others and the issue is half fixed

  • HineDavid David Hine (@HineDavid) reported

    @virginmedia I have now made contact with your helpline. Very slow to answer - 48 minutes! - but on the way to resolving the issue. Thanks 🙏

  • BritDisFan British Disney Fan✨ (@BritDisFan) reported

    @virginmedia I have had 2 sent that do not work. We have numerous phones and iPads (Samsung and Apple) in the house that are open to any network. They all recognise there is a SIM but state no signal. Both SIMS did not ask for activation PIN. I have been trying for months to sort this. 😭😭😭

    @PaulieBUKLT Apparently they’ve had a major outage in one of their datacentres. Should have been resolved on 20-Nov but they’re now stating 30-Nov and that’s not guaranteed. #virginmediadown @vmbusiness @virginmedia

  • Kerry15989545 Kerry (@Kerry15989545) reported

    @virginmedia I am so disgusted at your customer service. We have been trying unsuccessfully to get help about the Tivo box which is not working and flashing pink and white. How do I get help for that? We haven't been able to watch it for 2 weeks!
