    40 mins on the phone to @virginmedia on hold listening to poor music ....have you thought of recruiting some staff? Plenty of people would love a job at the moment...mad way to run a business

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia seriously, a price increase?! Only renewed my contract 2 months ago and for more than I've ever paid! Of course, no customer service available either. Ridiculous!

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia I rang after the email and they assured me they have applied a discount and would stay the same price for my contract. I agreed a fix price and if that's not what I got then I have been lied too, which is a miss sale and the ombudsman will be contacted, again.

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia i was asked to upgrade as a valued customer, since upgrading my broadband is terrible we are all using 4g at home as connection is so poor. i have done all testing as directed from comp voice on phone and link sent to mobile. i pay for 3 virgin mobiles one now has no data

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact your call centre for 15 minutes and I’ve tried all the options and I can’t get through to ANYONE!! I want to cancel my contract and it doesn’t give you the option online to do so!! Can someone cancel it from your social media team?

  • DanielHill21 Daniel Hill (@DanielHill21) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia can I have some help ASAP, in regards to an issue I’m having and I’m in a bad way

  • petersnowdon Peter Snowdon (@petersnowdon) reported from Darlington, England

    Hi @virginmedia received a letter this morning advising me of price rise and providing a link for more info. The link directs me to call and you don't answer. Any suggestions? I'd like to cancel my service with you. Thanks

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia hi, any help on a non responsive remote to vbox? It is flashing red when I press buttons bit nothing happening on box. Only started happening tonight

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Ffs YOU try calling that number and tell me if you get through to somebody. I’ve tried god knows how many times and I just get a machine telling me you’re busy and that I “might like to call again later” every, single time. Your level of service is a joke.

  • 147mick Michael White (@147mick) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yes problems with wired devices as well, I have to turn the hub off then on again all the time even if I'm in the same room.

  • m_arthur1 mick arthur (@m_arthur1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia @d754771 I’m still waiting for the call aswell I know it’s a bad time with call centres closed but come on Sunday I was told 24hrs

  • PaulAhdal Paul Ahdal (@PaulAhdal) reported

    @virginmedia I have now called your team on several occasions and nothing has been done to resolve it. I'm promised that someone will call me back and it never happens. This has been going on since July. You are simply dishonest theives

  • MrFitzQEGSMaths Mark Fitzsimons (@MrFitzQEGSMaths) reported

    @virginmedia @wtid66 This page is down too!

  • taibibs26 taira rashid (@taibibs26) reported

    @virginmedia Bcos I am with o2 even my phone is slow Bcos of this ****** internet.. HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO FIX BEFORE I DECIDE TO CHANGE SERVICES

  • _aaroncater_ Aaron Cater (@_aaroncater_) reported

    Wtf virgin?? My contract has come to an end and just been told by your agent that if I repackage my virgin mobile will be cancelled. I could get it down to £89. I’m not paying £127.75 a month so it looks like I’m moving. Ffs! @virginmedia

  • PlumberTom98 Tom (@PlumberTom98) reported

    @virginmedia Thankyou very much virgin for making me lose a days money at work waiting in for a technician to fit my virgin box that never decided to show. Not one phone call from you to let me know that he wasn’t going to make it after waiting 4 weeks for this install!!

  • TerraceFabulous TerraceFabulous (@TerraceFabulous) reported

    @virginmedia @hellylovesrawk There’s been no service for over a day in wakefield, no broadband phone or tv. But you keep on selling your Peter Kay tickets Virgin, get your priorities right.

  • gilbodyd Daniel Gilbody (@gilbodyd) reported

    @virginmedia If you have no internal way to escalate this, so far the internal disconnections seem to be: Help desk from digital Help desk from telemarketing Telemarketing from GDPR Telemarketing from any training (and everyone else?) Help desk from GDPR Digital from GDPR

  • CraigWoodroffe Craig Woodroffe (@CraigWoodroffe) reported

    @virginmedia The service buffers every night for a number of minutes of not hours.

  • Churchill0782 The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported

    @virginmedia Once I/we gather enough evidence of how poor your service is I will be seeking to end my contract with zero penalty. I'm confident a county court judge will agree that its unfair to be paying for a service that is always down!

  • plissken82 Plissken82 (@plissken82) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I did 3 different checks and it all told me that my connection was fine. Then it wanted me to book an engineer for next Thursday. No chance, so I left it and checked it this morning and guess what? It's working! What a surprise! Would have been £25 down for cancelling!
