Callum 🏳️🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England@virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub
-

Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England@LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

Andrew Poppleton 💙 (@popsgolf) reported from Wentworth, England@O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?
-
Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

Last 8wks its gone down for several minutes a day between 10am and 1pm. Only on weekdays & its supposed to be a problem with our hub, really? An engineer could find it @virginmedia #shoddy
-
John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.
-
John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!
-
Oliver Dean #TeamLH (@ollieinleeds) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia you must have the most unreliable internet service in the UK. Several times a year it goes down for a full working day. Again today, "Unplanned Outage" yet your van was here within seconds. Unplanned my arse. Compensate my loss of earnings! #poorService

-
Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting

Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Dr. Paul J. Sullivan (@DrPJSullivan) reported@_HadleyGamble @virginmedia A common "customer service" complaint across many companies. Poor service is expected these days.
-
0x00000 (@cryptocyphereth) reported@tvrski @virginmedia Yeah. After disconnecting with their human support, I switched to another browser. This time, their web deal page worked, but the price was 50p higher per month than the one i initially seen. Still, it was significantly better than the offer the human agent gave me, so I just went ahead with the renewal.
-
kelly (@kelly_twidale) reported@virginmedia So things like iplayer will no longer work after 2nd of June ? The problem with a 360 is it doesn’t have recording capabilities which is the main purpose of the v6 it’s ok upgrading the systems but a lot of people like my parents still record not stream
-
Andy Duncan (@andyduncan84) reported@virginmedia I’m having problems with your newly installed service. Your chat service is rubbish & I’ve been on hold for over 45mins! This is not a great start! Someone better get in touch with me soon or I’ll be cancelling my direct debit!
-
Liam Simpson (@Liamjsimpson97) reported@virginmedia Just DM’d but don’t bother replying if you have no power to impact anything and are just going to give me a customer service response.
-
*carly* RN DN (@CarlyBoo78) reported@virginmedia been trying to get through to your customer service line for over 5 hours in the past 2 days!!! Chatbot useless! Can’t get on the app. You have taken an extra £122.00 on top of our usual bill this month and we can’t speak to anyone about it! Poor, poor service!!
-
Dgjbear (@Dgjbear1) reported@virginmedia Hiya. I’ve been on hold trying to get through to your team that deals with retention for an hour. AN HOUR. And you want to increase my monthly fee by 50%? For this level of customer service?
-
av47ar (@av47ar) reported@kelly_twidale @virginmedia When we changed to 360 the V6 could no longer watch recorded programs if you didn't have an internet connection or theres a problem with a service.
-
Paul Caley (@PC_ale) reported@virginmedia the people on web chat not working today? Been getting the still in a queue message for almost the last hour and a half. Is it to raise a complaint? So who do talk to raise a complaint about raising a complaint, as the method to raise a complaint is not working!
