    @virginmedia 20 hours of being passed around your customer ‘care’ teams and no progress. And yet I doubt this is even close to a record.

    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I did and it said the service was ok. It’s now working after several times of going onto Amazon. I just don’t know why the service has become so poor recently

    @Chelsea1504 @virginmedia That’s why we got rid of ALL providers, the customer service and costs were awful.

    @virginmedia Talked 150 who managed to change one error message for another! Total #fail so far by @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Customer services are unexperienced and not read to help also. They keep repeating same things

  • traymca
    traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia this is getting ridiculous now! What’s happening with your service again today!!! Trying to watch on @BBCiPlayer and it buffers every 30 seconds!! Can’t watch anything and accessing websites including your own is so painful #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    Shockingly bad experience (again) from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - “upgrade” yesterday has wiped out my Wi-Fi - engineer coming next week. Couldn’t make it up, these cowboys really are the worst

    🅿🅰🆄🅻 🅲🅾🅻🅻🅸🅴🆁 (@sospainter) reported from Whyteleafe, England

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @VixThatRuns I have a sizeable Samsung. Ditched Virgin Media, the plan was to have Freeview. The tv doesn’t support Freeview!

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It’s now showing there is a problem. It’s been going on for 3 days now being very intermittent but only just started showing there was a problem this morning

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @YodelOnline OK have sent DM with details of the *Three* shipments @virginmedia have now sent due to their faulty software or equipment none of which shipments have been provided with a two hour delivery window by the carrier @YodelOnline as promised. Truly awful customer service.

  • craigdfreeman
    Craig Freeman (@craigdfreeman) reported from Redhill, England

    @virginmedia first day as a new customer and hub 3 isn’t working and stream box isn’t turning on. Have followed guides on both counts and all cables are connected correctly. Hub is giving out a signal but light isn’t turning white. Stream box is totally dead. So frustrating!

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia My husband has called because he is the account holder and has a Virgin phone. Virgin apparently will call tonight/tomorrow morning. However, my feeling now is that your service will work for a time and then will go bad, there is a pattern.

  • fadermonkeyking
    Jeff Brown (@fadermonkeyking) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Second tweet! Trying to cancel appointment. App only lets me reschedule, not cancel.

  • JaneCommon
    Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???

  • willjennings80

    @virginmedia You're internet is down *again* in sw9 and your internet service checker page does not work on mobile phones

    Appalling from @virginmedia today! The whole network in shambles today, no one working from has been able to do anything! Just spent 40 minutes listening to Footlose in their phone queue and as I got to the front, they put the phone on me! Absolute shambles!

    Jane (@janethebuell) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Same problem with @skytv. Told them mum had died & wanted account closed. They said "we cannot close the account, we need to talk to the account holder". I repeated she died. I gave up, sent the equipment back & ignored the flurry of demanding emails. Very distressing.

  • radavies_art
    Richard Davies FRSA (@radavies_art) reported

    Dear @virginmedia I’ve had no TV signal for almost a month. When I contacted you, I was twice left on hold for over an hour; when I finally spoke to someone, I was assured reception would be restored within 24hrs, that was two weeks ago!

  • Matthew58392631
    Matthew Smith (@Matthew58392631) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Customer service at its finest🙄

  • SaffaJC
    JC (@SaffaJC) reported

    @davekeena1 @virginmedia Mate I would reconsider virgin. Their customer service is the worst. They will admit they messed up but do nothing to rectify it. The staff are either inadequately trained or simply don’t care. Manager are the same unqualified under trained and useless

  • mrsdefleppard_
    zoe (@mrsdefleppard_) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I rang an insurance company cos I put in a claim for a cancelled holiday asked them if they needed my dads death certificate their reply was has he died erm wtf. Some companies have no tact at all 🤬

  • GR_BEAR1979
    GR-Bear🏆x55 (@GR_BEAR1979) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry Absolute pish !!! I had an introductory offer of £94 for 18 months !! Then it jumped to £205 😵😵. Exact same package. Looked at recontract - offered less services, slower broadband etc for £170. Don’t believe the recontract nonsense, it’s still expensive and a lesser service

  • Karma_Soul
    L 💉 (@Karma_Soul) reported

    @virginmedia you said my box needs updating as it won’t work anymore if I don’t. I call and update it. I said I don’t want to change my package. You have now doubled my bill? Been on hold for 30 mins no answer and your web chat can’t help. If I wanted to upgrade, you’d pick up

  • Adam83492464721
    Adam (@Adam83492464721) reported

    @Nasher6328 @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Nah **** that. If I need to go through the song and dance anyway I may as well switch and get whatever freebies they throw to new customers. It’s just a stupid system that doesn’t reward loyalty and means we all have to waste our time every 2 years.

  • Old_Motherduck
    Old Motherduck (@Old_Motherduck) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry maybe you should make that clear from the beginning and treat loyal customers as first time customers

  • lola_viscera
    Lola Viscera (@lola_viscera) reported

    @virginmedia this is STILL happening after months my phone number has been incorrectly linked to somebody else’s account and i’m continuing to receive repeated phone calls, payment warnings, suspension notices and account messages intended for another customer despite repeatedly reporting it how has this still not been resolved?
