  • Knocker75 Karen Holmes (@Knocker75) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia my mums tv/broadband went down at 8.30pm last night, you said it would be back up and running by 12.30am, still not working this morning she’s been told it should be back in at 4.30pm today. No mention of the problem! #ridiculous #compensation

  • tonysacting tony pickering (Roy) (@tonysacting) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Interesting when you get disconnected the moment you tell the agent the deal to stay with you as a loyal customer is way higher then new customers and £20 a month more than @SkyUK Especially when your charging me per minute to call you as you never fixed my landline

  • sinajtojayz Janis Sinaj (PISCES) (@sinajtojayz) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia I’m disappointed to say the least. I’ve requested for my service to be cancelled instead you sign me up for a new package and add an extra £10 to my bill.i no longer want your service..!

  • JanineAdelman Curly O's (@JanineAdelman) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia If you read this correctly you would see that I said broadband is not the issue - it's everything else, and trust me we gave engaged with you on numerous occasions including 6 engineers who have so far failed miserably.

  • booshtukka Antony Kennedy (@booshtukka) reported from Epping, England

    Come on @virginmedia - if something’s broken own it loud and clear and don’t make your customers do detective work.

  • ThePamFord Pam Ford (@ThePamFord) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia no service in E18 oh please sort it out

  • AlexHNGilbert Alex H.N.Gilbert (@AlexHNGilbert) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I need to cancel my service ASAP. You won’t even answer the phone..

  • Lucy__Oulton Lucy Oulton (@Lucy__Oulton) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Also, it's really ethically bad of you that as soon as I reduce services and money you start calling me anyway, I don't know what the 1st call or the 18th call is going to do apart from make me switch providers from the harassment

  • nicoloarena Nicolò Arena (@nicoloarena) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia No, thanks. I need to cancel ASAP

  • mikelondonse Mike Keogh (@mikelondonse) reported from London, England

  • JanineAdelman Curly O's (@JanineAdelman) reported from Barnet, England

    @darin_burrows NOT @virginmedia package is great as is broadband, but Customer Service is hopeless if it doesn't work correctly. One year in still not sorted and getting ready to leave.

  • TimAtkinsPhoto Tim Atkins (@TimAtkinsPhoto) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia It’s fibre only. How do I cancel when customer service is so bad! I have had 2 calls ended tonight as they don’t want to cancel my contract. So bad. Your front of house is appalling and can tell by the number of complaints on here in such a short space of time. :(

  • befitat50 Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia it’s frustrating that virgin media CAN NOT fix our broadband and internet in Sw4 8Dw!!!! We’ve been waiting for more than a week and still slipping to another day and so on! I’ve had enough and moving to a better provider Sky...

  • d7bow Rob Bawdon (@d7bow) reported

    @virginmedia Hi , what is the best avenue to find out why I haven’t got a mobile phone signal. Thanks

  • cathalsbyrne Cathal Byrne (@cathalsbyrne) reported

    @VirginMediaIE As a loyal customer of Virgin Media why do you charge me over 30% more than a new customer???? #nocustomerloyalty

  • PaddyJoe1977 Patrick O'Gallagher (@PaddyJoe1977) reported

    @virginmedia The service I am paying for has not been provided to me for over a week now. I have had to work at alternative places to do my work. Other customers have received a £20 credit on their bill as a good will gesture for the inconvenience. I would expect some sort of compensation.

  • Jamiensurrey Jamie Saunders (@Jamiensurrey) reported

    @Ofcom what is @virginmedia ‘s corporate responsibility for providing services we pay for. We have total loss of service for a week and engineers have missed 3 consecutive appointments to fix the line into our property. Thanks

  • max_sherburne max (@max_sherburne) reported

    @virginmedia the issue is your staff not calling back when they promise to…..

  • BigCal Callum (@BigCal) reported

    @virginmedia How are@you supposed to contact the ‘forum teams’ and why would they be able to do something that the installation teams can’t? Why does it take the customer to do all the leg work to try and find out what is happening with the account? If there are problems why can’t 1/2

  • CrimsonHeart1 Mia Peters (@CrimsonHeart1) reported

    @virginmedia That they are struggling to trace the fault. Meanwhile family travelling daily to check on her bc phone not working. She won’t use a mobile

  • GavHeaton That Heaton Mess (@GavHeaton) reported

    @spinksy_afc @virginmedia I'm also having same issue

  • BigCal Callum (@BigCal) reported

    @virginmedia Why is it not possible for you to contact someone on customer services to say ‘I have someone on Twitter who has had a terrible time with our service teams, we need someone to take charge of his case and resolve ASAP’. It really isn’t good enough

  • ChezzerG Cheryl Gillett (@ChezzerG) reported

    @virginmedia Mainly at home but never happened with another provider at all
