  • oharamal Cllr Mal O’Hara (Castle DEA) Belfast (@oharamal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I’m currently on hold at 38 minutes waiting to speak to customer service - apparently I’m moving house and reinstalling in Craigavon on 3rd December. I live in belfast and have not planned a move. Apparently resolved weeks ago but a flurry of texts yesterday

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Already did that , you are pretty much lying to people taking the first and second month in the first bill. Only have been with you for one month. Your customer team said this was in the terms and conditions. Can guarantee you it's not as I wouldn't have signed up if it was

  • Love_Antrim @Ŀ❤ѴE_Antrim (@Love_Antrim) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia when is #Glengormley going to have an end to faults with #boardband. This morning again it's down why why why. Can someone tell me is BT @WeAreOpenreach a better service in Newtownabbey...

  • a_golonka Agnieszka Golonka (@a_golonka) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @jadey_voorhees @virginmedia Honestly they are horrible, we changed to sky. Their customer service is terrible, up to 1 h waiting on the phone after having to press all the options... just for them to put you on hold and hang up! Took me over 1 week of phoning to finally cancel the contract!

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Just tried to phone again and when they transferred me to the complaints department they just hung up. Your customer service is actually appalling

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia for anyone who is thinking about switching to virgin media don't. Their £50 refer a friend credit doesn't work and they charge £35 for the activation fee and take the first and second month in advance. So now looking at a bill of over £100. Tried to phone but no use

  • eire_duchess a grásta (@eire_duchess) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I’m having some issues singing into your website to check the status of an order for a new mobile phone contract can you please help

  • PPLOM1 Sarah Lorimer (@PPLOM1) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @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.

  • BelfastTory Andrew Fleming (@BelfastTory) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @jst_jelliott @virginmedia Same here. Network is fine but router isn't able to connect to the internet. This happened recently around this time of night a week or so ago. Getting annoying.

  • swalker004 Stephen Walker (@swalker004) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    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

  • nextofkindler Gavin Wilson (@nextofkindler) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia We have had new boosters sent out and recently a new hub to try to solve the problems but still they remain unresolved. This situation needs addressed as we are currently paying for a service that we aren’t receiving

  • a_golonka Agnieszka Golonka (@a_golonka) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @jadey_voorhees @virginmedia They really are, I don’t know how they still exist! Try sky, and because you work within abbeycenter guys will give you discount, they did for me as well. Means if any issues as well you don’t have to phone customer services, they will be able to sort it out for you on the spot!

  • Jay_McB Jason Brown (@Jay_McB) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No! I have logged onto @primevideouk on another device and it works. So my account is fine. But it's not working on my V6 box and I have missed the first half of the match.

  • dryder11 Daniel Ryder (@dryder11) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Holding for 35 minutes for @virginmedia contact centre to try and find out why my WiFi is down guy finally answers asks my name then hangs up - absolutely furious! #terribleservice

  • Jay_McB Jason Brown (@Jay_McB) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    After a poor response from Amazon. @virginmedia I move to Amazon on TV feather than on V6. Have you #virginmedia got any news or explanation for the poor quality of Amazon on VM V6 stb

  • nextofkindler Gavin Wilson (@nextofkindler) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia so we contacted u yesterday at approx 330pm to complain about service or lack of and after being bounced about, we were told a manger would contact us within a 2hour period. We are still waiting. Absolutely terrible customer service to date!

  • oharamal Cllr Mal O’Hara (Castle DEA) Belfast (@oharamal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I got through - 1 hour in total on the phone!!! Terrible to have to wait that long. Agent mistake to allocate a disconnect and move to my account. I’m not moving anywhere

  • GeorgeCowan Britishgamerni (@GeorgeCowan) reported from Newtownards, Northern Ireland

    Streams over early Virgin media just went down no internet

  • PPLOM1 Sarah Lorimer (@PPLOM1) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    After a nightmare attempt to firstly speak to someone on the phone I spoke with a rude employee. I was assured no more charges . Email just through stating we will be charged double again this month 🙈 #virginmedia

  • awakingcell 𝕭𝖊𝖆𝖓 𝖆𝖓 𝕾í (@awakingcell) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @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.

  • atlantic_flyer9 Ady (@atlantic_flyer9) reported

    @virginmedia @EnglandRugby @AllBlacks Yes or can someone in your team PM about my parents struggling wifi and lack of customer service fixing

  • MickNorton23 Mick Norton (@MickNorton23) reported

    @virginmedia Why would you rather customers leave than offer incentives to stay? I'd rather get the deals you list on your site than you getting greedy and charging me 30% more for the same service. I'd stay if you offered the same deal, my point being, I shouldn't have to tweet you about it

  • 666Walrus666 Satanic Walrus. (@666Walrus666) reported

    @virginmedia Mmhmm so another 3 days and it most likely will worsen just like the previous 2 dates given. I've been a customer for 9 years and I've watched VM go from brilliant to an absolute joke and a shell of what it used to be.

  • ParadiseDecay Paradise Decay 🥽 (@ParadiseDecay) reported

    @virginmedia Why do we always have NET issues between 5.00pm and 7.00pm every night?

  • beckyhartley Becky Hartley (@beckyhartley) reported

    @virginmedia 50 minutes to get through to someone to then get told they can’t help, despite pressing the corresponding numbers I needed. Put on hold to be transferred and now line dead. How do I cancel?

  • John19620498 John (@John19620498) reported

    @virginmedia Every time I try and contact customer services, they just try to sell me a new package and won’t listen or resolve my problems. So now I have no phone line and you’ve even put my bill up!?

  • 09Navjotsingh Navjot Singh (@09Navjotsingh) reported

    @virginmedia Had some friends say it was being crap right now and it's still happening. Website doesn't say anything is wrong, but that is not what we are seeing. We are experiencing the same outages that other people are reporting in other areas.

  • Mephisto_Rises Mephistopheles Reincarnated (@Mephisto_Rises) reported

    @virginmedia The service page says everything is fine. It has done for hours. It is not. Whatever the technician screwed with today he's going to need to go back and unscrew it. Everything was fine until today's scheduled maintenance.

  • StevenGreen007 Steven Green (@StevenGreen007) reported

    Yet another lousy service from @virginmedia @richardbranson Again your agreement to credit overcharges on my account have not been implemented. In an age when every penny counts you continue to over charge me for services and not honour agreements I have in writing.

  • Hasbullins Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers
