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

  • emmainglasgow emmainbristol (@emmainglasgow) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia what's the deal, my box hasn't worked for 2 days??? This is the 3rd technical problem lasting more than 2 days that I've had this year. This is ridiculous now

  • brizzleboy pete jones (@brizzleboy) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia Sadly the phone never gets answered,we know if they did answer, someone in the retention centre might even help?

  • j_bettany Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, England

    So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

  • hurleyb0b Rob Hurley ✈️ (@hurleyb0b) reported from Bristol, England

    Hey @virginmedia there’s something VERY wrong with my Wi-Fi. I followed your online instructions and it didn’t clear the problem. I have a really busy few days. What’s the quickest, easiest way of getting it sorted?

  • algro10 Al (@algro10) reported from Clevedon, England

    @stewartcarter6 Appears it’s a Virgin media issue , shambles

  • sarahellenk1 SarahellenK (@sarahellenk1) reported from Westerleigh, England

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

  • williamjbrown william brown (@williamjbrown) reported from Bristol, England

    @BorisJohnson I can only get virginmedia (at an extortionate price) as it’s the only one who supply more than slow basic speeds - and this is the centre of bristol. Nothings improved for most of us - not only for this but everything else since you’ve wrecked our economy

  • xChuChux911 Hi, call me Chu x (@xChuChux911) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I never gave out any personal information as I knew it was a scam cus I'm with Sky. The number was 02045099664 but it was spoofed. Lady had an Indian accent and said technicians in my area had fould a fault which was affecting my computer.

  • gillih Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    @virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.

  • 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.

  • BRFCSamuel Sam 🏴‍☠️ (@BRFCSamuel) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia This contact was via the phone. He did give a reason, the reason being he didn’t know what the problem was. So told us to sit here and wait with no Wi-Fi and hope it sorts itself out.

  • AndyMWilcox Andy Wilcox (@AndyMWilcox) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia My broadband keeps disconnecting. This is my 4th time contacting and it gets worse each time you apparently fix something. Please can you fix it. I cannot work at home and I’ve just been booted out of your online chat to resolve the problem!

  • Bristolvor Ivor the Vorlord (@Bristolvor) reported from Bristol, England

    @KGravil @virginmedia Service?

  • BRFCSamuel Sam 🏴‍☠️ (@BRFCSamuel) reported from Kingswood, England

    .@virginmedia telling us to sit and wait for 24 hours without internet just incase our Wi-Fi starts working again before they’ll actually do anything, great customer service… not 👍🏻

  • LetRIP Matt (@LetRIP) reported from Thornbury, England

    @virginmedia Yes. That isn’t the point though. Your website has no information about how to contact you. And your web chat takes 1 hour to do the task of reporting bad speeds. Your contact support needs vast improvement.

  • LetRIP Matt (@LetRIP) reported from Thornbury, England

    @virginmedia Quite the worst customer contact centre ever. Website does not offer phone or email contact. Only way to get web chat is to go to complaints page. 1 hour to get a 1 minute task done. Deliberately cut off twice. #poorservice

  • algro10 Al (@algro10) reported from Clevedon, England

    @10sam_h Yeah likewise, virgin media awful still not sorted it

  • chrisandobe Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia That's a shame. Virgin SIM card was so much better and better customer service. I will probably change to a different phone network as soon as I can

  • amy_noony Amz (@amy_noony) reported from Bristol, England

    Virgin media make me 🤬 Been with them for 6yrs (no other option in our flats), paid their extortionate prices & received pretty poor intermittent service. Moving house & they don’t supply our new area 🥳 but they would like to charge a cancellation fee of £30.38

  • DeborahInstall The Robot Lady (@DeborahInstall) reported

    @virginmedia We've been doing that. It says there are no known issues, which is what they said to my husband when he phoned, along with telling us to check our cables. It's been up and down for a week, will suddenly drop out for no apparent reason.

  • CoffeeSellout coffee_sellout (@CoffeeSellout) reported

    @virginmedia told u 2 wks ago we were moving house,internet in old house got cut off Fri.On Sat tried to connect but the cable didnt work (which you charged us £20 for) so you sent a technician yday. He couldnt fix it so sent some1 to fix cable on street,was told was “all fixed”

  • shotkey Scott (@shotkey) reported

    @virginmedia She’s been trying to cancel her account since April. Repeated phone calls, automated systems, speaking to the ‘wrong’ department but still being billed for a service she isn’t receiving. Getting nowhere fast trying to resolve this.

  • amyelizalena Amy🐔 (@amyelizalena) reported

    @virginmedia Well I’ve had intermittent issues with it & my housemate doesn’t have nearly any connection anywhere, she was hoping someone could come out and strengthen the WiFi, we’ve tried all the advice online with regards to resetting & restarting

  • shotkey Scott (@shotkey) reported

    @virginmedia @ParalympicsGB You @virginmedia are terrorising my newly widowed elderly mother. Your customer service is terrible and bordering on criminal. I am so saddened by how you have treated my mother.

  • KsfaNiall Niall Crutchfield (@KsfaNiall) reported

    @virginmedia I did ask you the other day if you could help me redirect emails because I have no way of logging into a server or account to do so….

  • SelenaGraham Selena Graham (@SelenaGraham) reported

    Also... why can't they send an email of what has been 'offered' over the phone to resolve the complaint. #hownottokeepcustomers #virginmedia

  • AElmariesh Anis El-Mariesh (@AElmariesh) reported

    @virginmedia outages all morning, fixed this afternoon and now down again. surrey area. Cant get through…

  • PunkRossNdPizza Ross x (@PunkRossNdPizza) reported

    Why does my internet go down every weekday around 6pm @virginmedia ? Please don’t hit me with the “peak times” patter it’s 2021

  • alittlemole Little Mole (At Home) (@alittlemole) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not clear how to do that. Please can you clarify. BTW, other companies offer to help via DM.
