  @virginmedia awful disgusting customer service. 3 different agents 3 conflicting replies and told other were lies! What has happened to virgin? Supervisor was so rude. Didn't listen and kept interrupting me with robot replies. #terriblecustomerservice #badcustomerservice

  @virginmedia 11/ I've never been 6 days without internet and help was much more available in the past with virgin. Now, customers are being left high and dry.

  @itvnews please help. @virginmedia refusing to prioritise an 87 year old with a heart condition who needs a 24/7 phone line for her Emergency button a priority. Refusing to send an Engineer for ANOTHER 6 days.

  @MartinSLewis Virgin Media wifi been unstable since June 2020. Virgin Media never resolved the problem caused me to lose hundreds of £'s. Made me lose my PIP. Virgin made me pay double because they kept charging me twice most months. They've made me lose half my PC Guarantee

  @virginmedia It's okay I've taken it up with CEDR now and let them resolve it, I'm just highlighting to people how difficult it is to cancel contracts and the fact that VM consistently "loose" letters

  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 26 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  After a mammoth session on the phone to 6 of your departments to arrange interim broadband given your service failed in Nov. & won't be fixed to March I spoke to a helpful chap called David in the Customer Care Dept before I was cut off. Can you help reconnect me @virginmedia 🙏🏻

  Richard Noble (@Richard09499442) reported 28 minutes ago from South Ockendon, England

  rachel Wheelhouse 🇺🇦 (@RWheelhouse1) reported 28 minutes ago from Chelmsford, England

  @virginmedia 6 days since moving to Virgin, we are having issues, the WiFi won't reach our outside cameras. After completing the troubleshooting guides + waiting for over an hour for a chat agent + 30 mins on the phone, we still haven't spoken to a human....not impressed

  Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported 30 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia Obviously i don't have proof because your site doesn't say send recorded so why would i, my number was ported in July and I wrote same time, I have no reason to not send letter and you can see from any data usage that I stopped using your service

  Katie Williams (@katie_2521) reported 32 minutes ago from Wickford, England

  @virginmedia I had already look at this page previously. And when we have issues there is no indication on what it could be, I. E the *********** light is in as if its connected

  Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported 33 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  @virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12. That’s just today and this has gone on for weeks. Pretty sure you would’ve lost me as a very longstanding customer by the time 28 days is up.

  @virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.

  Carol Dover (@CarolB29041964) reported 36 minutes ago from Stifford, England

  Just how **** are Virgin Media...my email was down for two evenings and probably the days as well earlier in the week, and now it's down again. Virgin Media i need to access my emails....this level of service is unacceptable. I'm paying for this crap service! @virginmedia

  Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported 41 minutes ago from Romford, England

  On phone to @virginmedia for 55 mins to cancel, speak to 4 different people about a mis-sold service and then when I ask them to produce my contract they hang up. Not happy.

  Phil (@feyipuk) reported 43 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia I'm sorry for the two poor support staff who are trying to sell us new remote controls, routers and O2 sims - for more money - till we hit the nuclear option and say we're leaving to get what we're asking? We're loyal customers; why does it need to get to that?

  Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported 56 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia Hi, the VMGo app is telling me I need to upgrade to watch live tv but I’ve got the right package to have access and have until today watched live via the app. Is there an issue? Tried restarting it etc.

• 
  Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported 59 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  @virginmedia so after weeks of unbelievably poor broadband and customer service there was an offer from you to resolve the situation with a web chat at 11am, with a link being provided here. No link. I’m lost for words

  @virginmedia Hi, I would like to cancel my recent broadband order. I found a better deal.

  Why are you managing the worst levels of service. Utterly shambolic. Frustrating and embarrassing. I look forward to the next fine being enough to get you to treat customers as customers in the future. Just spent 45 minutes begging for a service engineer to come. @virginmedia

  @virginmedia @markkinga Hey, Virgin Media do you do a service in SA69?

• 
  Shahar Mor (@ShhrMor) reported 3 minutes ago

  @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia TBH, I'm not sure what POM wants. Would he rather the ref penalized the Irish for these "minor" breakdown infringements? His "coaching" actually helped Ireland slow the ball down without being penalized. Not to mention at least 3 yellows that were not given to them...

  lucy barnett (@lucebarnett) reported 3 minutes ago

  @EE I was on a call for 42 minutes this morning and got nowhere. Nobody wants to take any responsibility and suggesting I didn’t order despite the fact SIMs have moved over to One plan and Virgin Media contacted me about leaving. Very poor service

• 
  Adam Fletcher (@Fletchmyster85) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia It's tells me you'll be in touch within 48 hours, it's now over 72 hours and nothing. You didn't send me an email with my ticket details of the complaint, got back to the page to make a note 20mins later and the page had gone. Absolute shambles. Broken service & broken support!

• 
  Adrian Weale (@Edeaulx) reported 8 minutes ago

  I would contact you directly @virginmedia but your 'My Virgin Media' website won't allow me to sign in. I assume that this kind of obstructiveness is what got you fined so lavishly by @Ofcom

• 
  Moots (@JJMootts) reported 13 minutes ago

  I swear @virginmedia have to be the most frustrating company to deal with ever!! Absolutely useless customer service.

• 
  Croí Na hÉireann (@na_croi) reported 13 minutes ago

  @daphmc_ @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia Not rattled at all. Any game v The ABs was always at the very best for Ireland a 50/50 game. We could have won that game after being 14-0 down but just left ourselves too much to do after a slow start. Disappointed but not rattled.

  @virginmedia - But you can do this in the app. Download app. Login. Accept renewal offer. - Am told new contract has been sent to an email address I removed from my account ~1 year ago. - Return to "my Account" in app. Still says my account is due for renewal
