    And again @virginmedia have taken payment for a service I cancelled and have never actually used. Still can't log on to my account because it apparently doesn't exist.

    @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

  • cathgray23
    Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia We discussed the Oomph package which I initially agreed to then changed my mind within the 14 days, informed the customer service guy, by phone, text and email, he said he would cancel. The engineer came and documented that TV had been refused and therefore didn’t install

  • 28gem
    Gem 💎 (@28gem) reported from Wakefield, England

    I have been trying since the 19th February to cancel my @virginmedia services. I can’t get through on the phone... ever! I’ve sent numerous messages which haven’t had any response.

    The Davies Family on Tour ! (@Daviesfamontour) reported from Adwick le Street, England

    @virginmedia yet again my Tv, Phone & Internet is down… this is getting past a joke, happening regular. Think it might be time to find a new provider if it keep happening

  • plrw2010
    Paul Waite (@plrw2010) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia why is your customer service so difficult to deal with? They seem like robots reading from a list of FAQ answers! Ask something not on the list they are clueless!! Thanks

    @virginmedia @O2 what's the point Virgin is as bad as BT I was supposed to have Virgin Broadband & phone installed on Friday got told yesterday it was delayed til December 1st earliest with no reason as to why asked for a 5G router to get me by til then was put on hold for 20 mins then cut off.

    @virginmedia Thread: you NEVER give me my own account details. I’ve repeatedly told you that the account was set up on my now exes email address. Without her, you won’t talk to me, but you have no problem taking £55 a month just for WiFi…… just WiFi! I’ve repeatedly asked you to update//

    Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia That is really poor. It should be for Virgin to sort not the public. I spent an hour on the phone on Thursday speaking to a next to useless overseas call centre.

  • FranNamStyle
    FJG (@FranNamStyle) reported from Leeds, England

    My @virginmedia broadband connection has gone down, website just says whoops we cant find the page you are looking for. Whats going on. Absolutely ****.

  • Gav_Leaf
    Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported from Castleford, England

    Thanks @virginmedia Glad to know your levels of service are still going to be this utterly dire to justify pumping my price up an extra £15 a month!

    Stacey Mcintyre (Sam McIntyre) (@19stacey83) reported from Swillington, England

    @virginmedia 2nd day running wifi gone down at this time. What is going on????? #CrapBroadband

    @carltonnash @virginmedia Good luck! Unless they're trying to retain your business, they're as bad as @sky

  • KamalSh03012772
    Kamal Sharma (@KamalSh03012772) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Hi in LS28 7TU vigin services are down. We have no phone, TV channel services. It is giving v53 error code. Can you please sort this out. Thanks

  • Bexwa
    Rebecca (@Bexwa) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia The TV that it glitches on cant reach the box to get it wired in (but its only 10 ft away) I can't hard wire my laptop in. It goes off all the time! And then keep texting me saying you are coming for the WiFi pod after speaking with customer service. Im paying a fortune for this

  • mariemillward
    Marie MIllward (@mariemillward) reported from Leeds, England

    @GrahamHyde @virginmedia This is the second such incident of abuse in a week and there have been several other calls. What makes them plausible is our internet service from Virgin is poor and they phone saying they are investigating a problem.

  • leedsfan91
    james Staniforth (@leedsfan91) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia internet knacked again been like this for last month. And you charge us for this crap service

  • ClaraGomer
    Claire Gomersall (@ClaraGomer) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia A fault, however, the router was “updated”.... Worked okay for a couple of weeks, then went back to being out of sync / tinny sound I thought it may have been down to my Gramps TV - but I bought a new TV and used the FireStick on there - but still issues!!

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

    @virginmedia quite possibly the worst customer service EVER. I have been a loyal customer for years! Absolutely disgraceful

  • guygorillacity
    guygorilla (@guygorillacity) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Agree - worst company - taking more than fixed price contract stipulated from an old age pensioner.

  • KrYpt923317
    KrYpt (@KrYpt923317) reported

    @Benleo Disgusting customer service. I’ve had many issues with then. Financial Ombudsman Service have always helped, but now they’ve changed regulators, who are almost as bad as VM. Virgin Media just hiding behind a great product.

  • cyberbob1uk
    Cyberbob1uk (@cyberbob1uk) reported

    @virginmedia 51 days with you and 5 internet outages on April 4th, 6th, 12th, May 15th and yesterday which still not sorted today. How can you justify this shoddy level of service? Was with my previous provider for 10 years, 0 outages.

    Maggie N (@MAGGINED) reported

    @virginmedia Hey @virginmedia I have been unable to use my tv play back services and play any recorded programmes for almost a week. The service check is telling me estimated fix date as 18th May - that’s 2 days ago !! What’s going on ?

  • AirDribblePrick
    AirDribblePrick (@AirDribblePrick) reported

    @garyb007 @Benleo They couldn't care less about loyalty, that's why all the new customers get the best deals and loyal customers end up paying double. **** @virginmedia scum company.

    @virginmedia @Benleo You haven’t addressed his issues. It’s not just about sorting it out. Terrible service.
