    Hello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.

    @virginmedia Well that was a pointless exercise reaching out to yourselves. Just proves once again what a load of rubbish Virgin is…. #virginmedia #garbage #dailymirror

    @virginmedia my elderly mother has been trying to contact you for over 3 weeks now to cancel her sub as it has gone up £60 pm. She has been out on hold numerous times and cut off no help on chat etc. her only option now is to cancel the DD as she can’t afford this anymore… help

    Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia hi are you having problems in NE34? Our TV has been down since around 10.45am with error code V53. Can’t check service status online as your site appears to be unavailable.

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve tried to call 5 times to cancel services without success. I’m emigrating in January and I’ve no idea how else to try and contact you. Could someone please DM me so I can pass on phone number to receive a call ?

  • PaulCraig24
    Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it

    @virginmedia Continual issues with the credit agreement email not arriving (and yes I checked junk!) It took a webchat and 3 calls to get anywhere near resolving this. Had my dad in his 70s in tears at the stress. I do have to say after almost 2hrs on the phone today we finally 1/

    David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I don’t understand where you can see my personal information, it merely gives you, what broadband package I’m on what telephone service I’m on and watch TV service sign there are no account details whatsoever

  • UnicornRunning
    Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia The Hub is in modem mode connected to a separate wireless router as the Hub's WiFi has been poor since we got it, so technically it's a wired connection. Router's connection is lost when it drops so no devices can connect wirelessly. Has been stable for about 3 hours now.

    @virginmedia your call centre is an absolute joke. No one deals with problems and just transfers to a different department who hang up

    @Grimmy01942 @Simon_Whale @virginmedia They did this to me, it was the final straw. I sacked them off and got BT fibre broadband, never looked back.

    THE Rev. Quantum Bigfoot ♿️ #FLTG OG Anti-RGB OAP (@RevQntmBigfoot) reported

    @sephiroth17181 @virginmedia Current ISP only supplies Eero routers & they are terrible but have to keep one on hand in case external connection drops to optical box as they won’t even raise an issue unless their router connected (configured it so don’t have to change anything on the network if have to)

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported

    @sephiroth17181 @virginmedia Worst customer service systems and people I've ever had the misfortune to have to contact but thankfully there are now other fibre providers on my street whose service is me reliable too

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt I moved to alt net, **** the main companies. Been with Quickline 6 months, during initial setup there were some speed drops, contacted support was fixed next day. Other than that no issues so far.

    Next time virgin media ring me from Bangladesh or any Asian country im going to put the phone down on them, I can't understand a dam word you are saying 😡 @virginmedia

  • RevQntmBigfoot
    THE Rev. Quantum Bigfoot ♿️ #FLTG OG Anti-RGB OAP (@RevQntmBigfoot) reported

    @sephiroth17181 @virginmedia The actual faults were both properties (70 miles apart!) bad power amplifiers along the cable itself underground to the cabinet which required senior network engineers to come out & replace them. Haven’t used them since (2010 was last time) because they dragged feet for so long.

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia I was with virgin media for nearly 10 years, zero issues! Always got the speeds advertised, tv was also decent.
