  • JanineAdelman Janine (@JanineAdelman) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia I will phone you, but wait a minute, my phone doesn't work!

  • dylzdevani City Girl #140499 (@dylzdevani) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia The wifi is always flashing green. Even when it says there is no issue. Fortunately tho the contract is coming to an end which means so will payments👍. Paying for about 250Mb to get 30 on a wired connection

  • Enfield67 Paul Dart (@Enfield67) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia We’ve got through and the customer service man was very rude

  • wilderfulford Wilder Fulford (@wilderfulford) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia @virginbroadband. You have failed to fix the failings of your fibre optic so-called broadband in W11 for months. We are going back to BT as soon as we can.

  • channa_2012 CD 🌸 (@channa_2012) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Called back, held for another 15mins, was finally put through to the correct dept & have cancelled. I just want to say how rude the agent turned when I declined the offer to stay, & once it was all done he just cut the call off. Glad I made the right decision #virginmedia

  • georgiamumbles Georgia Mumby (@georgiamumbles) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia That leads me to just our conversation history. I’ve done all the hub checks according to your website and it’s still not working

  • potentialprodz potentialproductionzmusic (@potentialprodz) reported from Hackney, England

    7 days time to no more bad service, disrupted TV and broadband service of Virgin Media. I'm saving myself £600 plus increased prices annually. So downsizing technology and reducing carbon footprint = 1 fone, mobile data and 1 computer. Will only have what I use! TV is next. Yay

  • beckylucydell Becky Dell (@beckylucydell) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia your service is a joke. Just taken me 32 minutes to change my bank details on the phone. Call centre staff should be able to speak the same language as your customers to a standard high enough to be able to do the job. Such a waste of time 😩😩😩

  • channa_2012 CD 🌸 (@channa_2012) reported from Hackney, England

    @funkyfairy78 @virginmedia They will owe me a refund in September and I’ll make sure I get it 👆🏼 They’ve been messing me around for so long with their rubbish service, I should’ve cancelled months ago! #virginmedia

  • TimHDav Tim Davies (@TimHDav) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia The phone of course is still not working. Outrageous. This is despite assurances that an engineer would be sent & that it would be resolved in several hours! Utter nonsense. I would like to escalate my complaint now please. I will dm my number & please arrange for me to be called

  • channa_2012 CD 🌸 (@channa_2012) reported from Hackney, England

    I just listened to your fuzzy hold music for 18 minutes @virginmedia, went through the same security Q’s multiple times, only for the phone to cut off as I explained my issue. I JUST WANT TO CANCEL MY BROADBAND!!!!! Can someone call me back to do this please

  • dylzdevani City Girl #140499 (@dylzdevani) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Im not thick ofcourse all the cables are connected, it wouldnt tell me 30mb if the ethernet wasnt in. The hub has been reset whenever there is an issue, which happens to be every few days.

  • mmulla Muhammad Saeed Mulla (@mmulla) reported from Walthamstow, England

    To be fair, this is probably a PR person tweeting this, but really bad PR for @VirginMedia if they think that this is secure. Plus they missed the whole point, which was that the password was stored in plaintext.

  • georgiamumbles Georgia Mumby (@georgiamumbles) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia hey my WiFi is down and I’ve been trying to get through to somebody in your call centre for ages - I was on hold until way after closing time and your message feature doesn’t work 😞 HEEEELLLPPPP!!!!

  • Freddie_Owusu77 Freddie AFC Owusu (@Freddie_Owusu77) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Tried to call today waited for 20mins to get through finally got through to customer service and then they had to put me through the escalations team and as soon as i got through the operator pretended he could not hear then dropped the phone.

  • Enfield67 Paul Dart (@Enfield67) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia After all that, the new contract by email shows the phone part of the deal has been down graded to weekend calls only despite my Dad saying he needed to keep all time calls as he spends ages on phones to hospitals and doctors for appointments. I’m sure this wasn’t what was agreed

  • yiddo71 Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia you have the worst mobile customer service in the world absolute disgrace #ripoff #con #virginmedia #virginmobileuk

  • ThistletonM Matthew Thistleton (@ThistletonM) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for your response, the TV connection is still often very slow or (having just come home from work) currently not connecting to Netflix or catch up (error NW-2-5)

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Spoke to your woeful customer on Friday about how much compensation I was going to receive for my outage,I was assured I would get a call back, still waiting!!! #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • AllanFenn Allan Fenn (@AllanFenn) reported from Waltham Abbey, England

    @virginmedia 5 different answers from different agents The best one was yesterday whilst on hold after being transferred to another person , waited half hour then they cut me off ! Finally got through to Nathan who is currently trying to resolve this issue, again !

  • realjoerobin Joe ✌🏻 (@realjoerobin) reported

    @virginmedia Hiya, didn’t get a call back in the end - despite repeated promises that it’d be fixed! TV box still not working.

  • crosss216 Matt Wells (@crosss216) reported

    @virginmedia The forums won't tell me why you closed my complaint without getting in contact with me, the why you lied to me about that, and why I have to spent hours on the phone to be passed to wrong departments will it? And why you can't help your old customers?

  • orhansubay ORHAN SUBAY (@orhansubay) reported

    @virginmedia At my complaints, you will see all things. I fed up writing you and trying to reach you. I tried to find a solution but I can't communicate with you. I can share my SMS chat with you, and you can see your capability of handling an issue. Sorry for you.

  • lexicalk R K (@lexicalk) reported

    @virginmedia what's going on with your business broadband service?? There's been no information available on the loss of service, nor can we get through to customer support!

  • crosss216 Matt Wells (@crosss216) reported

    @virginmedia Well I can't while at work....... So where dose that leave me, we it now not going anywhere since you can't do anything..... This is the worse customer service never.

  • oftenfaceless 𝓝ameless (@oftenfaceless) reported

    @virginmedia I contacted virgin last month to cancel or get a better deal. We settled on a better deal but was told I was receiving the new hub 3. It’s been more than a month I’m sure it 5 weeks Monday, I still haven’t received the new hub.

  • realjoerobin Joe ✌🏻 (@realjoerobin) reported

    @virginmedia Nope never rescheduled, didn’t give a reason , they promised that it’d be fixed with 24 hours on two separate occasions - which it wasn’t.

  • playpet1 playpet (@playpet1) reported

    @virginmedia I am using all my tweets to you as evidence of complaint though and today I am ringing customer service and I am refusing to pay, I stopped ringing your customer service because spending 1-3 hours trying to sort out a virgin issue is disgusting, your staff just tell lies

  • DumbartonMick Mick Dumbarton (@DumbartonMick) reported

    @virginmedia Whole family have been loyal Virgin Media customers since 2004, and never had an issue with TV, broadband or phones until this.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported

    @virginmedia Wired connections are pretty much the same, were never able to get through to a human unfortunately (which has been our experience since joining Virgin) We replaced the superhub with a stronger WiFi router due to its terrible performance so can't can't even run self tests 😳
