  • mhendy1971 mark hendy ⚒ (@mhendy1971) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia But who said I paid £25 just to watch the main advent? I paid £25 to watch all the fights not just one. Very disappointed with your reply, very poor customer service

    OMG... as a marketer with over 30 years experience I’ve just encountered the worst ever customer experience! Thank you @virginmedia for the opportunity of a very interesting case study that I will share with the world tomorrow.

  • ChristianSurfer Phil Williams (@ChristianSurfer) reported from Nailsea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been a loyal customer for 22 years & reviewing all my package and find out that if I had been a new customer I can get the same package for 30% cheaper can you explain this please ? Or get somebody to contact me doesn’t sound like good customer care to me

  • misseschampers Lucy Champion (@misseschampers) reported from Bristol, England

  • dac5267 Dave Clark (@dac5267) reported from Yate, England

    @virginmedia What a load of nonsense, I pay you to provide a service, disconnections happen all the time and randomly, your service is shocking and is NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

  • leedumble Lee (@leedumble) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia very poor customer service 😡 been a customer for 18 years and don’t not give a dame @SkyHelpTeam

  • LucyFooter Lucy Footer (@LucyFooter) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia could you let me know how to contact the technical team? I’ve had an issue with my tv for months but can’t get through to customer services . Thanks!

  • mhendy1971 mark hendy ⚒ (@mhendy1971) reported from Bristol, England

    Well after many many years of being a @virginmedia customer today I finally cancelled my contract. It’s totally disgusting how much they charge. ie £115 a month & saying it was going to go up another £5

  • mapson_nick Nick Mapson (@mapson_nick) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia I have spent hours on the phone the last 5 days trying to get some idea if my home move had been sorted! Please can someone DM me to sort this out. Fed up of being let down constantly 😡

  • NurulAmir3 NurulAmir (@NurulAmir3) reported from Bristol, England

    Unprivate my account to get a hold of @virginmedia . Please do something about your customer service. This time around, it should be more efficient. 45 minutes waiting in line only to get disconnected.

  • VickyLorych VickyL (@VickyLorych) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No service issues and my other half has said the ping test hard wired by an Ethernet cable is coming back with 0.11’s 0.3 0.5 0.31. The house we are in is a small 2 up 2 down and devices drop out intermittently, it’s really annoying.

  • NurulAmir3 NurulAmir (@NurulAmir3) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia @el_yusri Hi there. I am still waiting for the respond from text messages. It has been more than 48 hours of waiting and 3 times encountered with your bot. Every morning I received same message whether i still need help or not yet still no human assistance

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Not being utterly useless do you not think we’d have used all self help avenues... Now waiting for another promised call back that doesn’t come 🤬

  • Joner030277 Matthew Jones (@Joner030277) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No this is a answer/solution to a person with exactly the same issue as me. PLEASE send an engineer?

  • Joner030277 Matthew Jones (@Joner030277) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Another 65mins waiting for anyone to help to be cut off again for the 2nd time. You have no customer service

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia More awful service from @virginmedia #virginmediadown

  • VickyLorych VickyL (@VickyLorych) reported from Bristol, England

  • ShaunHouston15 Seamus. madnesspne. (@ShaunHouston15) reported

    @virginmedia Good afternoon. I have to say that your contact service is abysmal too say the least. 50 mins on first chat, 30 mins on 2nd chat & 30 mins on the telephone & the problem hasn't been resolved. Even trying to leave Virgin media is a battlefield which I lost!!

  • smashbangwallop Smash bang wallop (@smashbangwallop) reported

    @virginmedia Countless hours, we rarely receive the bandwidth we pay for & what usually happens is our broadband is ok after speaking to your team then within a week it is back to being a problem again.

  • lisalouann Lisa Martin 🤍🖤 (@lisalouann) reported

    @virginmedia 1) After being on the phone for over an hour explaining our issue of no WIFI upstairs, Tivo box not working properly and not able to view Prime or On Demand Live Events we’ve purchased, the polite Virgin rep needed to get authority from a Floor Manager to book

  • nanipals Dr. Renuka Mudunuri (@nanipals) reported

    @virginmedia What about zoom and Microsoft teams calls. You also don’t support them? Then what is the use of your advertised high speed? Most unreliable and unstable service and the worst customer service

  • argen Bruno Belcastro (@argen) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm being charged more than a contract that I recently signed and there's no option to contact you on the site. Can you please help?

  • thedogger31 george (@thedogger31) reported

    @virginmedia Waiting on construction but that is no excuse I cud of dug the road up with a knife and fork in this time it’s an absolute disgrace they treat customers like this.

  • Vijayb28 Vijay (@Vijayb28) reported

    @virginmedia Trying to get in touch but it’s not leading anywhere. After being in contract with VM for 9 months, VM restarted my 18 month contract with my house move which is contrary to what I was advised. Extremely unhappy and annoyed with the level of service and stress it’s causing

  • tonbriel iBriel (@tonbriel) reported

    @VirginMediaNews Virgin media is a proper joke. When I asked to cancel my contract on the grounds of poor service guess what, they’re asking for termination fee of £240. I was tossed to 5 different reps who could not fathom any solution to the problem. That’s how bad they’re

  • PerturbedMole The Perturbed Mole (@PerturbedMole) reported

    @virginmedia so I’ve run all the tests on my home broadband, but I’m continuing to have line drop outs and streaming on my TV is slow, even off peak. I’m trying to work from home and also keep my kids entertained. Can’t continue. Can I have an engineer around? I have M100 Fibre.

  • SteeLlooyd Steven Lloyd (@SteeLlooyd) reported

    @virginmedia So when I am at home or out but using Wifi there are no issues, as soon as I switch to mobile data I am unable to connect. All mobile data for the app is on, suspect it is a blocker as it happens on the browser as well
