    @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

    Virgin Media called to offer me Sky Sports for £15per month and I'm literally waiting to see who we sign before I decide if I'm gonna pay to watch us get our pants pulled down every other week.

  • 93DominicSF Dominic Sherry Adams (@93DominicSF) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @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...

  • shannonruddock_ shannon (@shannonruddock_) reported from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland

    Ben tried contacting @virginmedia because someone has ****** up our account during our house move. He was ignored and could hear the girl typing in the background. He tried saying hello repetitively but no one responded. Not acceptable to treat your customers this way!!!!

  • gemmacaddell86 gemma (@gemmacaddell86) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia honestly your customer service is disgrace. your advisor gave false info to get a sale last wk as confirmed by your advisor on my call today, repeatedly put on a silent hold with no signposting so it sounded like been disconnected, blind transferred then systems down

  • Dross1114 Ross (@Dross1114) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia ITV down, hands down the worst service, awkward user interface, will be moving on from my contract, so expensive for poor service

  • BIGT_REV Trevor Gilliland (@BIGT_REV) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Yes says to call the customer service number to make changes have also tried the online chat but no good! This is the shocking service for the second night in a row

  • BIGT_REV Trevor Gilliland (@BIGT_REV) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia @virginmedia unfortunately 8am is not a suitable time the evening is a time I would expect to be able to speak with someone in customer service

    @virginmedia See my messages from yesterday. Nothing on your service pages but I’m constantly having issues. It’s now affecting my job as I can’t work from home efficiently anymore and that’s not acceptable.

  • marshy313 guy marsh (@marshy313) reported

    @virginmedia customer service rubbish. Been trying to report broadband fault for weeks & cannot speak to anyone.. all online help useless & not prepared to hang on the phone for hours waiting either. #poorservice #angry

  • Marsy24A ❣️Andrea (LFC)❣️ (@Marsy24A) reported

  • OmarEstietie Omar (@OmarEstietie) reported

    @virginmedia I guess it is from the DSL thing, the speed should be near 30Mbps but as far as I know it's a problem with the DSL and the telephone.

  • jimmymc James Mc (@jimmymc) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia So, despite me spending an hour on the phone persuading you that I am not moving house just yet.. I wake up this-morning to find I’ve been disconnected anyway. And I’ve been hung up on once already while being transferred to the movers dept. Shocking service.

  • Kimmymcwom Kim McLean (@Kimmymcwom) reported
