  @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 37 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 40 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 41 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported 43 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Moved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

  @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

  @virginmedia Your chat colleague already looked into it and was incredibly rude and basically said tough you’re an existing customer on a contract and we don’t help our loyal customers, just new ones 🙄

  Virgin media plan has gone up 300% £65 to £219 and then wrongly disclosed on email private details of another virgin customer breaking GDPR rules. #worstcustimerservice #notbotheredaboutvirgincustomers @Virgin @MartinSLewis @GDPRbreaches

  Vikram (@VikramRajpara09) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I pay for a service which is not active and not working. Goodwill doesn’t come into the equation.
