Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England@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!
-
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. 😒😥
-
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.
-
Toby Osborne (@TobyOsborne1) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia I spoke to a rude adviser who said they’d escalate it. However my pac code has already been swapped out and there was no urgency. I am now waiting in the hope that someone else doesn’t get control of my phone

Amz (@amy_noony) reported from Bristol, EnglandVirgin 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

Shitsgigglesngloves (@Shitsgigglesng1) reported from Kingswood, England@Birdybabe07 @virginmedia Bt, great deals atm. Once back on openreach network you can move around with over 50 companies. Once on virgin you can only use virgin. bt will happily re instal to get you back on openreach network. Unless you need business fibre...then I can provide or advise👍.

Rosemary Jane Fox (@RosemaryJaneFo1) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia #rude #badservice Had Virgin broadband installed just to discover a better deal on money supermarket. Contacted them to ask if they would honour it and was refused point blank, told not to complain, wouldn’t put me through to the boss and wouldn’t give her name.

Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, EnglandHi @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.
-
Tony Cox (@coxtonycox) reported from Bristol, England@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.

Jonathan (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, EnglandLooks like @virginmedia #virginmedia is down in Bristol again. Bravo. Idiots
-
Rajnish Razdan (@RajnishRazdan) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia it’s amazing isn’t it - you never pick up calls or cut me off so I go to your site to change my package as you’re charging me for things I don’t have and amazingly your live chat button doesn’t work either.
-
Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England@BookDreamerSal @virginmedia Having the same problem. Just called Virgin - it seems many people are too. They're trying to sort it.
-

Enzo Faulhaber (@enzo_faulhaber) reported from Yate, England@virginmedia running with some issue with some of your staff member. As they promise me to Install a broadband at my house but now ignore 🧐
-
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
-
Kieran Traveller 🛫 🏰🚢 (@KieranTrvlr) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia I have, and I get an automated service that hangs up on me after sending a text. I just want to order wifipods. I’ve tested the speed in the app, but it’s not allowing me to do anything. Chat doesn’t work, and calling won’t let me speak to anyone.
-
Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, EnglandSo 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
-
Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia Hi there, the engineer came round but it hasn't fixed the issues. It's dropped 4 times now in the last hour, despite me doing a full reset. It's completely unusable. Please help!!
-
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
-

FNATIC Saltyy (@saltyy_savage) reported@BrophersX @virginmedia They are one of the worst for communication. Also trying to increase my package price while I've had these issues for weeks is just hilarious
-
Adrian Oso (@AdrianOso7) reported@virginmedia I've sent private messages and they just ask me to call VM and get an engineer in. The engineer's conclusion seems to be that it's not worth the effort to extend the network by 10 metres, via a footpath which I own. And that's bang in the centre of a village right outside London.
-
Neil Skivington (@glentfc27) reported@virginmedia @DarrenMoggie66 The issues are still exactly the same.

John Spencer 555 (@johnspencer555) reportedVirginMedia was down afternoon, evening, and all night? The phone is via the Hub now, silly as you can't phone for help when the whole thing crashes, even the TV was down, rare. I couldn't fix old ariel so no TV. But no biggy, I guess.
-
