  • MadRabbitLady75 Hannah McKay (@MadRabbitLady75) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia After over 4 hours on chat it's dealt with thank you...... nearly 5 hours in total to terminate my services.....

  • MadRabbitLady75 Hannah McKay (@MadRabbitLady75) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia They answered, established they couldn't sell me a new product then told me to phone back in the day my contract ends and immediately hung up.. If it was clearly stated online in your info "don't phone us to cancel until your contract ends" I'd have saved 35 minutes of my day..

  • StuartWilksHeeg Stuart Wilks-Heeg (@StuartWilksHeeg) reported from Seaforth, England

    I literally cannot distinguish between real @virginmedia customer service calls and the scammers. And this isn't because the scammers have suddenly got very good.

  • HellsbellsO Helen Walsh-ONeill (@HellsbellsO) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem with internet in Widnes r has gone off

  • SATempest Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Heswall, England

    @virginmedia is it possible to DM someone to cancel a contract? I’ve been on hold for 45 minutes, finally got through to someone who said it’s not within their remit, transferred me to another department and now the line is silent and I’ve been waiting almost an hour!???

  • SATempest Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Heswall, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reply. I appreciate that but I’ve already raised the issue and was told I would be called back today, it’s now almost 5pm and I’ve not heard anything. I appreciate you might be busy but your customer service is shocking, as always…

  • kkgorny1972 Kev (@kkgorny1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @NetflixUK is it just me or does @virginmedia keep canceling my netflix subscription, they have changed the payment system and its now **** but they are embarrassed to admit it, its pathetic. Please let me know

  • KeithJBolton Keith Bolton (@KeithJBolton) reported from St Helens, England

    @Jackingsworth @SimonMiller316 @virginmedia I had no issue when I cancelled mine when I moved house last year I did it all online talking to one of their agents

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Can this be done while the Wi-Fi is down? We recently lost FOUR days service but "hadn't complained properly!!" So couldn't claim!!

  • jenlew1983 Jeanette Lewis (@jenlew1983) reported from Liverpool, England

    Yet again my @virginmedia TV isn't working and yet again there's no help on the website and no answer on the phone.....exactly what am I paying my bill for??!!

  • tweetsfromchlo Chlòe (@tweetsfromchlo) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve had no picture or sound on my TV for 24 hours now. Even on my apps the picture and sound aren’t loading. Subtitles still showing up though. It’s a TiVo box. Any help appreciated would be great.

  • MissDonnaCooke Cookie (@MissDonnaCooke) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sorry really trying to be chill but this is horrendous customer service. Cut off after 40 mins, call back which I answer immediately and cut off again. No further attempt from your team to contact me. I've told them i want to cancel my order can you please confirm?

  • KeithJBolton Keith Bolton (@KeithJBolton) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Done all that and booked an engineer for Friday but just had a text saying my engineer is on hold while investigate a network problem affecting services

  • cbray72 Christopher Bray (@cbray72) reported from Liverpool, England

  • angusgillan Angus Gillan (@angusgillan) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Is there an issue with accessing emails? I can access my @blueyonder emails but my wife can't. When logging into the VM site a message appears "your mailbox is not available at the moment" Awaiting urgent emails. Thanks

  • clarebellla Clare B (@clarebellla) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are there any issues in Liverpool L12 area as tv not coming on since at least 5:30 am this morning

  • MissDonnaCooke Cookie (@MissDonnaCooke) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia @its_coco_do Well I've clearly been forgotten conveniently after calling telling an agent I want to cancel my order and being cut off. Promised a call back. Nothing. Every time I call I get dropped. Ridiculous

  • jonathansc Jonathan SC ن Esq. (@jonathansc) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Thank you for the update - how can you more that 12 hours after the incident occurred only just be sending an engineer to try and fix @virginmedia

  • jimwebber Jim Webber (@jimwebber) reported

    @virginmedia @CKotselidis No, I looked on the offers and upgrades section of your website after you sent me an email saying Gig1 was rolled out across your whole network.

  • briseglace bass axis (@briseglace) reported

    @virginmedia For the umpteenth time, I was told someone would come today, only to phone and be told it will be fixed tomorrow instead. AGAIN. Is anyone ever going to come round and fix this? Or am I just going to keep having the same conversations with you over and over?

  • KeatiSgP SGPKeating (@KeatiSgP) reported

    @virginmedia To be honest I’m not bothered about an investigation at this point, I just want the Maxit cancelled and nothing taken from my account. I’ll cancel the broadband asa I get a new provider and cancel mobile at the end of the contract. Had enough of Virgin.

  • salman_ghani Salman Ghani (@salman_ghani) reported

    @virginmedia after rescheduling installation 2 times, you have changed again. There is no planning and organisation in your teams. This is how you treat people sign up for 1GB broadband. By far the worst customer service I have ever seen.

  • lfcntha lfcnthat (@lfcntha) reported

    @virginmedia I was on WhatsApp with the retentions team when he advised me I couldn’t cancel a new agreement as I’d already signed up (10 mins earlier) and I’d be subject to a early disconnection fee if I didn’t get the volt package

  • Westlondon7 Andy (@Westlondon7) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for that but it doesn't resolve the issue of why the app doesn't remember my device. It could be reset today but I'd still have to keep replacing a device for the same device every time I log in

  • Sunbeam85x DavidCF1985 (@Sunbeam85x) reported

    @virginmedia Is there issues with your service today? Me and my partner have had very little or no signal all day today.

  • kln_nurv D K (@kln_nurv) reported

    @virginmedia @dannyjpalmer It is normal to have *minimum* requirements. Removing the 12 character limit would solve a lot of issues though. Usually such specific length requirements mean the password is stored insecurely. You should refer this to your development team or escalate to the device vendor.

  • Smileybyte Maureen Hendry (@Smileybyte) reported

    @virginmedia Extremely fed up of everyone saying sorry. It really does not help. I would just like the service I am paying for. We both work from home so the internet is critical. It’s impossible to speak to anyone at virgin
