  • philipbackhouse Phil Backhouse 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴‍☠️ (@philipbackhouse) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia The sale person sat in my living room for 3/4 hour and told me that they take the cables over the roof, never once mentioned going round all the skirting boards, we would not have even signed up if known, its wasted my time & your engineers time.

  • gavcav1 gavcav (@gavcav1) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Pls don’t keep sending me this same message, I’ve said time and again there are no issues showing and that’s one of the annoyances! There never is anything showing.

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia As my 4g on my phone is for some reason very slow, or non existent I shall try when ( bring the operative word) my wifi/broadband is restored. I expect Virgin to sort things out, they are saying they have an issue, but no one there know why this happening. Not my job! I pay you!

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Monday no tv/broadband, get up today & guess what it's off again. If you think you've experienced a loss of service, please register it as you may be eligible for bill credit if your service isn't restored within two full working days following your registration.

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Whilst I have no tv, radio or computer to work i shall be a twitter warrior and tell everyone how turning off service alternate days means we get 1/2 the service with no recompense.

  • dutchieuk2009 🎙Carlo RedsReport van de Watering🎙 (@dutchieuk2009) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia any chance of someone following me, rand cust services 3x, phoned put down on me 2x, 3 different advice/info given. This is urgent .

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I understand why you cannot help, but neither can anyone else, or explain what the problem is. I am documenting & recording my calls/emails/tweets ( yes I do tell the operator I'm recording, just as they do, it's the law, you would be surprised at some of their reactions)

  • Antoinne73 Vampire Bait (@Antoinne73) reported from Rotherham, England

    141 days and still contact from @virginmedia customer services - Half a year coming up #virginmedia rubbish

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @WeAreWST @manbetxofficial Was really enjoying this tournament however thanks to @virginmedia I have no tv coverage! They are having unexplainable 'issues' yet again.

  • SUMBoiii_ Sumboiii (@SUMBoiii_) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia So spoke to Paul eventually. He went all Del Boy on me and we reached a deal, you did good this time @virginmedia but you really do need to get offers out to loyal customers that are just as good as the new customer deals

  • suntattoo66 suntattoo66 (@suntattoo66) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did . useless ..no help at all

  • Antoinne73 Vampire Bait (@Antoinne73) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia Yes - the complaint is about no tv service and no contact in 6 months despite paying £800/year - the letter asks me to ring customer services - I have x 100. Never get through to anyone

  • harryd20200 Haz (@harryd20200) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia do you have a direct number to uk customer services as your staff in India are useless and do not understand I want my phone number changed to ex directory. 4 times I've been transferred to different departments and each one has poor english and really struggles.

  • SUMBoiii_ Sumboiii (@SUMBoiii_) reported from Wakefield, England

    Why do companies like @virginmedia not reward customers for loyalty! It's only new customers they give a shit about. Off to another broadband provider

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Well I never, just as usual, tv back on just before deadline again, but still no wifi, the enq system wouldn't let me send the form, wanted my URL & told me to ring them. All responses & times being monitored for collection of data regarding regular loss of service.

  • buzzcockblue paul hanlon (@buzzcockblue) reported

    @journalupdate is the Journal aware of issues with Virgin Media, down in part of Salisbury for 6 days with no meaningful updates? Has anyone from @virginmedia updated the Journal?

  • YumYumProfit LUNATIC MOM 🇮🇳🇬🇧 (@YumYumProfit) reported

    @virginmedia @TheLastofUsHBO Hi I need a booster for my wifi signal. I tried calling 150 but can’t get through to anyone to talk to.

  • helenvecht Helen Vecht (@helenvecht) reported

    @AnnaBatchelor @virginmedia I advised an elderly, recently widowed friend she should look very closely at her mobile phone contract so that it could be terminated promptly when she died. I've heard NIGHTMARE tales of problems with this!

  • MrPorty Simon Peters (@MrPorty) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry, That just takes me to the sign in page. No chat box or anything popped up

  • lapdog26 victoria quigley (@lapdog26) reported

    @virginmedia totally disgusted with the bill i have recieved £55 for internet are you having a laugh and customer service was no use i've been a customer for 15 year, maybe not much longer

  • superstaryas7 yas ➐ (@superstaryas7) reported

    @virginmedia The issue isn't just for me. It's other customers too in the area. So booking a tech for myself won't resolve anything. If that was the case, I'd have booked one yday for today. How comes i can't see the time frame fix that u can?

  • 1rfansays Irfan (@1rfansays) reported

    Everytime I call the date changes of when the area issue will be fixed, just ridiculous . No service wifi or TV for almost a month now!!! @virginmedia

  • J_England93 Josh England (@J_England93) reported from New Waltham, England

    @virginmedia are the rudest, most unhelpful & disgusting company I’ve ever had to deal with. I can’t wait to leave them. Problem after problem after problem after problem they’re are an absolute joke

  • superstaryas7 yas ➐ (@superstaryas7) reported

    @virginmedia So the broadband issue will clear out in the next few hours? Why do I have to report back again in 4 hours? This intermittent issue has been on going since Yday. Time before it was last month and time before for around 3 months, between oct-Jan this year

  • Samanth73659619 Samantha sanderson (@Samanth73659619) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, o2 won't let me cancel without paying a fee. You have reduced the costs of my tv package which has been very helpful, but @O2 are refusing to do any offers and want to charge me to leave.
