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

Craig Capel (@craigcapes) reported from Bristol, EnglandThe £ gleaned by both @virginmedia and @SkySports in making it difficult for fee/ subscription paying members to watch “each others” content must clearly outweigh the customer service calls and complaints 🤬

Mr Onion (@DanielRobe94975) reported@virginmedia Why can't I login in. In a constant verification loop between the website and my email address.
-
Its Murphy (@murphyireland83) reported@virginmedia yo… why does everyone who works for you just lie their faces off? 2 days no internet engineer said someone would be out to pull a line within the hour.. 4 hours later no show, call customer service and the promised me a call back by 6pm. another lie, now sat on hold
-
SJL (@lambypies) reported@tom550993 Haggled Virginmedia down to £50 a month for decent broadband, one set top box for live TV and the middle TV package. Now TV and Netflix still trials less than £75. If I could get a decent reception with an aerial I would ditch the box too.
-
Mike T (@Tutts558) reported@fia I can rewind my Virgin Media to show you Max breaking the rules. Why can't you ? It effects the result, and other teams responses to what you do. You clearly favour him. Terrible decision.
-
Colin Burman (@ColinBurman) reported@virginmedia I currently have a contract with Virgin Media for a mobile phone which I wish to terminate can you please advise me of a number I can call to sort this matter out Unfortunately I cannot call 202 because the current phone is broken Thank You Colin Burman
-
Scottish (@ScottishC87) reported@Ripple300X did you ever get to the bottom of your packet loss issues on Downbad? Speaking to Joby he says you had to stop playing. Having the same issue elsewhere or only on Downbad? I'm trying to talk to Virgin Media just now.
-
beir13346 (@beir13346) reported@virginmedia there has been intermittent signal in the Salford area on and off for mo this. What is going on with your service? Yes I have already signed in and run the diagnostics.
-
Asif Rana (@HounslowParking) reported@bt_uk I'd like to know why your business broadband so called service, can only compound its utter uselessness with skyscraper level brain numbing stupidity? I thought @vmbusiness was utterly indescribably ****, until you came along. You literally make them look like geniuses.
-
Steven Usher (@servesthesun) reported@virginmedia it’s quite literally impossible to sign into either your website or the app! Literally stuck in an endless loop of being asked to sign in but when I do it refreshes the page asking me to sign in
