    @virginmedia Useless you haven't addressed my points. I will go directly to the managing director Lutz Schueler. Really disappointed and I woukd have expected better considering I have been a loyal customer.

  • jamiewhalley87 Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

  • giinagii GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.

  • benbrailsford Ben Brailsford (@benbrailsford) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬

  • giinagii GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!

  • martinaspiers Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported from Oughtibridge, England

    @virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

    @virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.

    @calvg @virginmedia Thank you 🙏 Stop blaming us and be responsible for your crap connections

  • ClaireWinslade Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported 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

  • Koko__Johnson koko 🌻 (@Koko__Johnson) reported from Sheffield, England

    Virgin Media have the worst customer service in the world

  • BMiller36990477 -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

  • MrDavidEBrown David Brown (@MrDavidEBrown) reported

    @AndreaMullaney_ I only joined it to find out if anyone else was having a crap experience with Virgin Media!

  • AzarAsghar AzarLFC 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🇯🇴 (@AzarAsghar) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it states there is a connection issue which if not resolved in the next 15hrs then an engineer visit will be arranged. Can you advise what the issue is and if there is work ongoing to resolve this as a matter of urgency? I will be withholding my bill payment until its sorted

  • Nick_Benton Nick Benton (@Nick_Benton) reported

    @virginmedia Once again, as the communication is so horrific, I'd like ANOTHER update in my ongoing complaint.

  • danzzheiress Maria Frances (@danzzheiress) reported

    @virginmedia someone under your email address has been using my name and company’s name for fraudulent emails and the chatbot on your website is not letting me connect to an agent. Where can i lodge a complaint? I am not a UK resident so i cannot make a call

  • RussPope Russ Pope (@RussPope) reported

    @virginmedia your phone system pushed me to text support then WhatsApp. I have then spent the worst hour trying to cancel my service only to be told that they can't help and giving me the same number as where I started. Dire user experience and the worst customer care

  • cerealcomplaint peter hopper (@cerealcomplaint) reported

    @O2 well this is fun, activated sim card as new o2 customer less than an hour ago and so far the free10 offer has bounced as its "not for me" followed by a sales call trying to upsell my package and wishing to sell my data to virgin media. 2 things to annoy me in 1 hour flat.

  • ElvinOjuka LVN (@ElvinOjuka) reported

    Anyone else with virginmedia in the city having internet issues?

  • SmithersTwins Colin&Alex Smithers (@SmithersTwins) reported

    @virginmedia Well they don't seem to be able to! Perhaps it might be an idea to get someone in charge to intervene to actually be able to help and get a prospective customer of yours some help...no-one seems to be very forthcoming to help us! 😒

  • danzzheiress Maria Frances (@danzzheiress) reported

    @virginmedia The chat support and whatsapp support are all bots. I am not a Virgin Media user so i dont have an account and i am based in Singapore so calling is not an option. Is there another way i can talk to a REAL person?

  • BigZombieMonkey 🟣⚪𝘽𝙕𝙈⚫🟢 (@BigZombieMonkey) reported

    @XI_Delta @YodelOnline another package.... VIA YODEL!! apparently @virginmedia use Yodel as their delivery partner. It's almost enough to make me go to Sky as Yodel are ******* awful!!
