@TSSNI @virginmedia completely disgusted by Virgin Media. Have recently taken out 3 phones on contract bringing it up to 4 on the account. One stops working less than a month after buying it and now they are looking to charge me to fix it before even looking at the phone.

@dearbhaiiile @virginmedia They seem to have no concern for accessibility either, with phone support pretty much being the only option. Not great for those who are hard of hearing or have a communication difference IMO.

@virginmedia. Signed up for 1 month sports channel. Told it would cost £15. Paid three times this. Not informed we had to ring up and cancel. Now three months paying double our usual bill.

Have had the phone sent back once and now two weeks later still awaiting a pack to send it off again. Been told just to go to @Apple and been hung up on twice. Hundreds of pounds a month being paid to @virginmedia and not even a hint of customer service!!!! Disgusting

Been a loyal @SkyUK customer for many years, but current process to move to Sky Q has been ongoing since 3rd August. Shocking service and zero communication. Time to cancel and move to @virginmedia

@beatlebaby84 @virginmedia With all these services I record the time, explain I'm busy and ask them to credit me £20, they never do, but often they'll credit £10 or £8, always worth a try!

@virginmedia customer service is atrocious! Meant to be open to 8PM...but advisors just hanging up the phone instead of answering. Asking us to leave...

@virginmedia I've already reported both issues. It's highly frustrating that a fault with one service knocks out everything.

@virginmedia twice now in a week where i have had no tv/broadband , once when it was off for over 12 hrs and now it suggests we wont have a service until 4pm tomorrow. Not good enough. I pay a subscription to watch live sport and i cant watch it. I want some form of compensation

@virginmedia Your hold music sucks and it's annoying to have to have a full argument trying to cancel your account thanks. Try some calming music. Hold is rage inducing enough. Stick it in a suggestion box.

@virginmedia Why are you asking people to upgrade to V6 boxes knowing there are faults on them? Why are you not activating V6 boxes BEFORE sending them out?! Customer services is SHOCKING! Your quick to take the money from our bank though!

@spencer096 @McDonaldsUK Customer service in the UK is to tell you to go **** yourself and to ask for an apology you bothered them at work... I literally had a @virginmedia rep actually hang up on me.

(@reshnasir) reported
@virginmedia @virginmedia one of ur managers was supposed to call us 1. For how rude whoever we spoke to on Saturday was & 2. To discuss compensation owed for loss of service, my wasted time AND the number of times we’ve had loss of service which means I am unable to do my own job properly.

@virginmedia is virgin media quite possibly the WORST service provider in the history of service providers. I changed 2 months ago my father over (who is 92 years old) to virgin media for TV, broadband and home phone, and still he cannot get all his services sorted....

@virginmedia How do I contact them when I have no phone to use and the link you have provided is for broadband only? Are you aware of a thing called customer service? So far, it's non existent, pass the buck and let the customer deal with it. Looks like O2 will be getting new business soon!
