  • VanceBulla V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

  • victimsvoice73 Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Yes both mum n dad are virgin and we’re still getting no signal

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ ☮️ (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @DysphasiaPV @virginmedia Product is good but customer service terrible

  • ArmitageJohn 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?!!

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

  • Aidan1964 Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

  • rywilnot Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported from Darton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

  • SiDay14 Simon Day (@SiDay14) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Did you even read the thread?? Now you want me to complain about an issue I’ve complained about several times already? The whole point is your pathetic response to issues!

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    What an absolute shower of shite service as usual from @virginmedia they literally couldn’t care any less

  • tevowl9 Adam (@tevowl9) reported from Brinsworth, England

    @virginmedia on the phone for 30 minutes, WhatsApp message and technical support still not sorting us out! Oh but we can double what we pay and get a new hub!! New customers get it for £25

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia awful and aggressive scare tactics from your not so friendly cancellations rep when trying to cancel my service. God help any vulnerable person that tries to do the same thing. Shameful

  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia very unhappy failed install and had no service since Saturday and I'm within my 14 days to cancel yet your staff don't understand this and want to charge me for a fault call !! When do you become so crap !!!

  • DeborahTaylor3 Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

  • victimsvoice73 Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    @Aimmbotz Wtf first google now virgin media, this man is to famous

  • bowbrick Steve Bowbrick (@bowbrick) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I was pretty sure it must be my problem but I've tried three different browsers (Safari, Firefox, Chrome) and two different devices (iPhone, Macbook), with and without ad blockers. Even the link from your app loads the same broken page.

  • Marief2408 Marie (@Marief2408) reported

    So @virginmedia I finally get a call back from a technician, bcoz we are getting intermittent wi-fi from day 1. You suggest wi-fi boosters at an additional cost of £5 per month! So I have to pay more for your bad service issues? We are already paying for bad service! #badservice

  • KyleWhittall3 Kyle Whittall (@KyleWhittall3) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t understand why I can run a diagnostic on my network and see that it doesn’t work and yet I keep getting given the same advice that doesn’t help at all

  • fisher_pf Paul Pronini-Fisher (@fisher_pf) reported

    @JohnnnyW @virginmedia Agree. 6 weeks waiting and now I, me, the wronged customer, needs to spend more of my valuable time trying to sort stuff out. This is a problem I’ve now raised three times so the least @virginmedia should do is take ownership of their error and sort it out.

  • PeteTurnbull2 Pete Turnbull (@PeteTurnbull2) reported

    @virginmedia My flabber is beyond fasted! The absence of any semblance of customer service astounds me, but it's ok to call an elderly woman you know that suffers with dementia and let her give you her card details over the phone and take £300,and now you need the complaint ref (C-0601211340)

  • kmazsmith Kazza (@kmazsmith) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia No one has managed my expectation. The person on the phone just said 'an engineer will call', I assumed that as I paid for home works I would get it sooner rather than later. Just as well I've just given notice on that! That's money down the drain.

  • TWRHQ chris brooke 😷 wear a mask 😷 (@TWRHQ) reported

    @virginmedia Why is it impossible to have a joined up conversation with your support staff? One where each operator doesn't contradict what the last person said & one where what's been agreed actually happens rather than the complete opposite? cc @Ofcom

  • Harrypstapleton Harry (@Harrypstapleton) reported

    @virginmedia if anybody is looking to contact Virgin support via the live chat on their website, be sure to allow for a multi-day wait by your laptop

  • Mrfish35659146 Mrfish (@Mrfish35659146) reported

    @virginmedia Moving to another supplier sorted issue. Tv, brdband and telephone was the cost to VM's incompetance
