    @virginmedia stop emailing and texting me every day threatening to fine me £100 for the non return of your equipment. On 23 August I booked for one of your engineers to collect it on 13 September. This poor customer service is one of the reasons I left Virgin after 10+ years.

    @virginmedia I been with virgin for years and last month was put on the new virgin O2 SIM deal. I'm already looking forward to when I can cancel the O2 SIM only part. Couldn't get any help with O2 but luckily the person at virgin helped me.

    Hi @virginmedia @helpvirginmedia @VirginMediaCorp why won’t my Outlook connect to your server? No emails for 3 days. It’s an issue your end yet no help from your tech team.

    @virginmedia @EGX virginmedia where can I email to complain? My VirginMedia Box won’t let me delete a number of things and my Internet is patchy at best! £83 a month for this ****? Every time you call you people you’re on hold or cut off!

  • _dreamer_
    Pilar Gómez (@_dreamer_) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Actually, the new owners are porting their virgin contract here, if the contract is per property, and it will be Virgin providing the service, that would mean we DON'T have to pay the fee right?

  • chrisorman
    Chris Orman (@chrisorman) reported from Bradley Stoke, England

    @virginmedia Tried to send you a WhatsApp message but got the following message back: "Thanks for choosing to Message us today. We don’t have availability to accept any more messages for faults at the current time." Why is getting help so difficult?

  • AngelMel2017
    AngelMelSelector (@AngelMel2017) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for your reply. He told me that the cheque had not been activated when I first called 5th June. I was told it would be sent out via check. He told me today it would take a further 2/3 weeks. Sadly was no help at all. 😒😥

    @Virgin @virginmedia @virginhelp well it's now been 21 hours since I was passed over to the help desk for picture break up on all channels on TiVo box and I'm still waiting this is shocking

  • sarahellenk1

    @virginmedia please can someone help me. I need a number to call you on

  • dave_backwell
    David Lloyd (@dave_backwell) reported from Backwell, England

    Appalling customer service thread to follow about @VirginMedia. 6 months ago my partner and I moved in together. We were both customers with @virginmedia but for obvious reasons decided we only needed one account in our new house ...

  • creativeskg
    Stuart Gallop (@creativeskg) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Your TV and internet services in BS8 Bristol are still down! When is this being resolved!? #VirginMediaoutage

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Bristol, England

    Hi @virginmedia I want to cancel my account. Still waiting to speak to someone after > 1 hour. Advice please?

  • lazy__goth
    Tiffany (@lazy__goth) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No, it doesn’t, and the internet goes down again within hours, usually in the evening when I presume there’s high usage. We’re in a loop - report issue, told issue is resolved, issue happens again.

  • chloehester
    Chloe (@chloehester) reported from Bristol, England

    Why does @virginmedia online chat never work?! Its a nightmare trying to get through on the phone 😭 I just need to change my package ffs.

  • neilcairns
    Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Why can’t anyone just forward a message or reply to an email? Why does the customer always have to do something else? Absolute ball ache as usual with this nonsense. Wonder how quickly you’d fix issues if people stopped paying their bills?

    James Munro (@eripley8) reported

    @virginmedia @mobily_uk Can you drop the smiling emoji Virgin. It really is absurdly patronising and shows that you're just laughing at us rather than genuinely trying to help

  • cripps_alan
    Alan Cripps (@cripps_alan) reported

    @virginmedia do you ever listen to to your own customer service recorded messages ? They are awful ! Totally unclear what we are expected to do to restart service ! . And why does your customer service team not start until 8am when they are based in India ? Makes no sense

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!

  • COhanians
    Chris Ohanians (@COhanians) reported

    @virginmedia how on earth is the a wide outage lasting days without any communication from you. Ive tried to contact several times ove the last couple of days. HA4 for my father in law and UB9 for me. I have never seen such as display of lack of customer service.

  • loubylou60
    Karen Cheney (@loubylou60) reported

    @virginmedia Why is my tv not working and why can’t I get through to customer service - been trying since this morning. What a terrible service!

  • nottinghillman
    Nottinghill Man (@nottinghillman) reported

    @virginmedia I think this has been reported now but our WiFi at W2 4TJ went down on Wednesday evening. A call out engineer the next the next morning merely confirmed that the problem is apparently on the street, not in our house as the engineer apparently thought initially. But no repair yet

  • choc1982
    Claire Wilson (@choc1982) reported

    @virginmedia I am absolutely disgusted in the service I have been receiving over the last week. I have been with you 12 years and calls have been cut off. WhatsApp chats have been ended while trying to go over offers. Which may I say are shocking. You get nothing for being loyal.

  • johnjoeoregan
    JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband been down almost continuously since midday Friday 17th and now latest update says evening of April 20th expected repair /resumption. Will be four days at that point. What has happened? Manchester area.

  • Redveee
    Shaun Todd (@Redveee) reported

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia I renewed recently with a few clicks online cause I had to replace my Tivo box for a TV 360 box. I was out of contract and paid £104 for 2 months, new bill for same service is now £64, less than what I was paying in contract. After 12 months it goes up to £69.

    @virginmedia why is my box suddenly experiencing problems nothing changed at my end and yes I have tried resetting etc
