    @virginmedia the worse customer service I’ve had in a long time. An absolute racket- tv, internet, billing & customer service: all woeful - they allow themselves 28 days to respond to a query & the phone lines are inaccessible - you couldn’t make it up #avoidvirginmedia #crooks

  • Melyclassy Melisa Soto (@Melyclassy) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia thank you for being an example of how bad customer service works! It took me 4 months to get on hold of you to cancel my service #NeverAgain

  • SmithRodwsmith1 Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been looking into this problem & the TV is all Connected to my Virginmedia Internet then it suddenly disconnects from the Internet & then this is why it goes back to my TV Homescreen then i go back into settings & wireless network click on this & then it’s returns & works🤪?

  • SmithRodwsmith1 Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia I went on Virginmedia & it said they know of a TV Issue & it was affecting TV Go Users so does this it could be affecting normal TV Viewing through V6 Box & Virginmedia Router. The Fix time is estimated for 12pm Tomorrow(Engineer) I cannot watch TV Now it keeps going On & Off😱😫

  • Oxfordwolf Oxford Wolf /\_/\ 🔶 (@Oxfordwolf) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    Dear @virginmedia, our Internet stopped working at 4:50 this evening. Right before my 5pm work video call. Now I cant turn my @HiveHomeUK lights on because your service is still down. Get it sorted would you please.

  • AmandaD00131015 Amanda Davies (@AmandaD00131015) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia Then why did the call handler say 48 hours.? 28 days is unacceptable & no one has contacted me to find out details, so how can they resolve my issue?!?

  • Melyclassy Melisa Soto (@Melyclassy) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @sandraHandscom1 @Bates_No1 @virginmedia I am on the same, worst customer experience ever. It is impossible to get on hold on the phone, they webpage is limited on options to cancel their service. #neveragain

  • LukeDav64411232 Luke Davies (@LukeDav64411232) reported

    @virginmedia Your customer service team were not helpful, and in the end, the line just went dead. The only thing I wanted to #stayconnected was the phone line and that apparently was not possible. I will cancel my DD now as I am out of contract.

  • lisaawright21 Lisa Price ⚽️🏌🏼‍♀️🧘🏼‍♀️❤️ (@lisaawright21) reported

    @virginmedia I have been trying to contact you to cancel my internet contract. Each time I call 0345 4541111 there is just a recorded message saying the lines are too busy and to call back. Our internet speed has been appalling for the past month and I wish to cancel..

  • ReddersM Martyn Redman (@ReddersM) reported

    @virginmedia - Appalling Cust Service, First person fields the call, second person, tells me out of stock wifi boosters! Call back in Feb! Ask for the discount I have been offered! Start verifying proc again and does not match. Cannot talk to me! #April, #leaving, #noboosters

  • kitty_chan8 Kitster (@kitty_chan8) reported

    @virginmedia I called 3 times with 30-40mins wait times, to try and cancel my bb. I got through to the call handler, then he transferred me to the end of contracts department but the call dropped. This is ridiculous!!!

  • martin_avery Martin Avery (@martin_avery) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia are you having problems with your broadband connections in the NE15 area ?, it’s been rubbish over the last few days

  • UParratt ulrike parratt (@UParratt) reported

    @virginmedia I've just been on the phone for 2 hours trying to cancel my contract only to be told by the second person I've spoke to that I didn't give the correct password. No option to cancel contract on line. Absolutely shocking customer service.

  • Danny_Boy200 Danny Collins (@Danny_Boy200) reported

    @Virgin @virginmedia I need to cancel my account die to moving house but been sitting on hold for what feels like a lifetime! Can I just email you?! You make it so difficult.

  • NaomiLe57011799 Naomi Lee (@NaomiLe57011799) reported

    @virginmedia I gave notice in writing via your messaging service on the 25th. But I will send the letter as well and I trust my notice period will be backdated to the 25th?

  • tranmere1234 Sean bucky (@tranmere1234) reported

    @virginmedia Utter waste of time, you must not read the thousands of complaints about this app, the bottom line is my son is two floors up from the rooter and the WiFi speed is awful, what we need is a reduction in our package price or assistance devices

  • deeokelly1 Deirdre O'Kelly 🕷🎵🇪🇺🇬🇧🇮🇪#FBPE (@deeokelly1) reported

    @SarahLudford @virginmedia We had to switch to BT because it was impossible to get Virgin to help. Weeks of frustration. Absolutely the worst customer service I've ever experienced
