    @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!

    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

    Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @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.

    @virginmedia It's fixed now and it was a problem in the box down the road, almost 24hrs to fix it is a bit of a joke thou 🙄🙄

  • 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

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 And that is why you are known as the most stupid MP ever

  • MTurnerNFL
    Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia The only issue I have with that is that every time I contact that number, the following happens: 1) I explain the issue, again 2) they advise me to follow the steps as are online, again, that I've already done, even though I say I've done them 3) they ask me to monitor 1/2

    🚑🌈Josh 🇪🇺👨‍⚕️ (@1Joshwa) reported from Bristol, England

    So why is it impossible to speak to a real person at @virginmedia ? Live chat is down, phone leads to a system test then hangs up. I just want to speak to someone 😩 #virginmedia

  • tinabadley
    Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Same as about a month ago. Said I need to enter password. But doesn't work. Have tried resetting password. Still no good. Webmail says can't access my emails right now. And when I go to the sign in page it has my name as 'Jackie' top right though the main page says 'Hi Tina'.

  • Hekler21
    Simon H (@Hekler21) reported from Westerleigh, England

    @virginmedia hardly a great start as new customer!! Moving house and ordered a new box for moving day, but now won’t be delivered there for over 2 weeks!! #shambles

  • vinnievoke
    vinnie voke (@vinnievoke) reported from Bristol, England

    @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

  • enzo_faulhaber

    @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 🧐

  • gingermurkin
    Alexandra Powell (@gingermurkin) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia Issue with virgin mobiles not accepting incoming calls, going straight to voicemail. Was told this would be resolved last night but still not working. Any resolution ETA??

  • TobyOsborne1
    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

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

    @virginmedia I'm disappointed with the service I have received. Finally ended my contract, claimed my credit refund only for it still not arrive 6weeks later. Called call centre & was told I'd have to wait 2/3 more weeks. Why? Its unacceptable to have to wait so long. #complaint

  • burdmiester
    Paul Burdon (@burdmiester) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Totally shocking services again, tried web chat messaging etc crap. Speed test less that 12 mbps, paying for 100mbps 🤯🤯🤯 What are you going to do it In off after 20+ years of pain, no more!

  • bethkorf
    Beth Ryan (@bethkorf) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Its done now but fairly sure it shouldn't take your agents 45 mins to cancel sky and bt sports and change the TV package to the basic. Maybe more training or better systems are needed. Just saying Sky took about 3 minutes to cancel BT sports for me a year or so ago #competitors

  • 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.

  • Fingers247
    Mark Round (@Fingers247) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginhelp @virginmedia I need some way to resolve this, and can’t be the only one stuck in this situation. I can provide birth certificates, passports, etc, etc. Your support staff want 3 letters of a password nobody knows.

    @Andycave @virginmedia Mate, we had them. They were just awful. We switched to BT. Much better. Yes Virgin Media made BT look good. Constant grief with Virgin. No problem with BT.

  • alexalexfyi
    Alexander McCloy (@alexalexfyi) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia tactics still awful when trying to leave - harassing with calls that are irrelevant and could be emailed. Agents saying ‘no’ to requests to raise complaints and spoken to in appalling manor.

  • WillcockCharles
    Charles Willcock (@WillcockCharles) reported

    @WeAreOpenreach Well Virgin Media are the worst company in the world so I will not be bothering to contact them. Most of their cabinets are open where I live.

  • allypetrie81
    Ally (@allypetrie81) reported

    @virginmedia must be the most incompetent and negligent company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. Account hacked and a fraudulent email now linked to my account for a month now. Zero help offered and no interest in removing the email. Anyone else had this?

  • frankiesmith74
    Frankie Smith (@frankiesmith74) reported

    @virginmedia I am so disappointed with your home move service. A failed installation yesterday. A no show on the needed cabling work today and 45 minutes of frustrating phone calls to your customer service desk today! I have been a customer for years and I feel extremely let down

  • Bev2810
    Bev Terry 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 (@Bev2810) reported

    @virginmedia you don’t bother looking after loyal customers do you ? want to offer my renewal for more than what I can get as a new customer

  • KarenFleming36
    Karen Fleming (@KarenFleming36) reported

    @virginmedia sent a DM, been waiting over 30 minutes to speak to someone on the phone. I can’t watch TV after Virgin was installed less than 48hours ago. Please help!

    maxine wilson 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@maxinewilson121) reported

    I have changed Internet yesterday as I was out of contract with virgin media and they wanted 95 a month, I have switched to @youfibre and I am thrilled to bits with it and now even get signal in my garden.

    H47LE7🐏🍺☀️ (@hayley1884) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have: it says estimated fix time 5.08 which is brilliant as I’m supposed to be working from home!!
