  • becshawyer Becca (@becshawyer) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia disgusting customer service ... after months of issues still not being resolved our latest phone call after raising a complaint the customer service representative hung up on me! Getting to the point now where we will be leaving 😡

  • jeanrauwers Jean Rauwers (@jeanrauwers) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia getting these emails saying “we are sorry you are leaving” but I didn’t cancel my service with you guys. Should I be worried about it?

  • owensirons93 Andrew Owen (@owensirons93) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

  • evac90 Eva Collingwood (@evac90) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia Like I said, I have tried to call but just get an automated service that directs me to the website

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Please i need to have assistance on some Wi-Fi problem and in friend referral. Can't find in the help pages, need a human contact thanks

  • revjdouglas Johnny Douglas (@revjdouglas) reported from Hextable, England

    @davebish @virginmedia Singularly the most sanctifying dynamic in my life over past year... endlessly broken zoom calls, or burning though mobile data... feeling your pain!

  • evac90 Eva Collingwood (@evac90) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia I need to order a booster ASAP! The ‘100MB’ WiFi i apparently have doesn’t even reach my office upstairs. No surprises when I go to order one online there’s a waiting list...how long am I likely to wait? Surely if all your customers need a booster, there’s an issue??

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia no broadband, WiFi or TV services in the SE7 area until 5pm today is completely unacceptable for people working from home. Engineering faults should not be happening during the day. £8 compensation is absolute peanuts. Very poor indeed.

  • daviduaregod paul davis (@daviduaregod) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia I want to upgrade as I had problems with my income but I can’t do it online don’t say nothing about my next package it’s. A disgrace I can’t phone as it cost me

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia With 20 devices connected to reinstall? What's? This is a solution? Wow thanks

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia i have an issue on my broadband...just 2 after i complaint against a openreach engineering. what a coincidence!

  • Bomber_RBS ML Shelton (@Bomber_RBS) reported from Gravesend, England

    @skytv @virginmedia get your fecking **** together and agree a deal with @disneyplus

  • SarahWaygood Sarah Waygood 💙 (@SarahWaygood) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia please could someone contact me. On hold for 20 minutes. No TV service.

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Or need please an email where I can wrote to solve some problems. Absurd can't communicate

  • sarainh2o Sara Rainwater (@sarainh2o) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    .@virginmedia my Virgin TV Go app hasn’t worked in 2 months. No luck uninstalling and reinstalling it, nor when I called your tech support for help. Any ideas?

  • evac90 Eva Collingwood (@evac90) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried to call but just get automated, I’ve tried livechat but they say I can’t order a booster through that service. What am I mean to do? I just want a lead time on the booster. Why can nobody give me that?

  • c1ormy Claire - with a capital C (@c1ormy) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia since outage in DA12 yesterday i have no services. Apparently on fault check status there’s no fault. Any advice? #virginmediadown #noservices

  • 303marty Martin Donovan ⚒⚒ 🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@303marty) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Another nuisance call from Virgin overseas..Disgraceful...telling me I was going to get the Boxing channel as I was a valued customer all for another an extra £8 a month..You have had one warning do something about it or I will report you.........

  • Tommy_Doyle Tommy Doyle 💙 (@Tommy_Doyle) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Hi, had a call this morning allegedly from you saying my internet service was compromised and malware was being downloaded, then proceeded to ask questions which I refused to answer. Was it you lot?

  • statusquo44 Peter Fudge 💙 (@statusquo44) reported from Canvey Island, England

  • RobOFeckit Rob Begley (@RobOFeckit) reported

    @virginmedia How hard can it be to diagnose the problem? It's mostly the same issue most times.

  • sophiemitchxo 𝒮♡ (@sophiemitchxo) reported

    @virginmedia And now I've got to apparently verify the details yet again to a "back office" team member who "won't be callign from an internal nunber" I'm going to cancel the entire agreement

  • rokolina martina k-f (@rokolina) reported

    @virginmedia @merrydrift Your broadband in my area (NW6) has been virtually non-existent, and so has customer support. The phone message stating that you are 'sorry' and working hard to fix the problem is no longer acceptable. I will cease to pay for your services asap.

  • larmour_andre Andrew Larmour (@larmour_andre) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Sky Sports app “device limit reached” even though it has not been. Can not register/de-register devices on virgin app and it advises “contact your service provider” - which is yourselves.

  • terribleuse Zebedee Springs (@terribleuse) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sigh. I’ve tried the webchat. On the very few times I can get a response, you won’t help because I’m not a customer and don’t have an account number. You promised me a response by yesterday. This hasn’t happened. What can you offer next please?

  • racheymc89 Rachel (@racheymc89) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, yes the page states there is currently issues being worked on. However I’d like to know whether this is planned work or a fault. It seems we’re experiencing this at least twice a week atm.

  • forester101 Paul Hampton (@forester101) reported

    @virginmedia no customer care whatsoever. No service. Do not use

  • niallthomas Niall Thomas (@niallthomas) reported

    @virginmedia any issues in Dublin 7? No service at the moment

  • kolokube Mark K (@kolokube) reported

    @virginmedia The "Team" are not doing anything! I want my PAC but can't get it as I have no incoming texts! This is beyond bad customer service. It's just pathetic. I'm a Virgin Media customer and after this experience I will be moving elsewhere.

  • DVoynova Diana Voynova (@DVoynova) reported

    @virginmedia Can I please have a direct link to raise a complaint? And don’t tell me go on the website when you know very well that link doesn’t work!
