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

    @virginmedia I 1st used web chat and was offered the same package then I rang explaining I'm struggling to pay and will have to cancel. No reduction in package or price. Just told to ring back

  • KevinRenshaw5 Kevin Renshaw (@KevinRenshaw5) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Done that as well. I have made at least 20 calls to you and been promised reconnection on numerous occasions and then nothing happens and I go through it all again. Your customer service is dreadful

  • EmmaBodley1 Emma Bodley (@EmmaBodley1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia just had a sales call from you guys and the woman I spoke to was extremely rude. Maybe you should just let people ring you if they wish to change their services.😡

  • 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 111 days my picture has been blipping - you said you contact me within 28 days - nothing I got a letter yesterday saying my complaint was resolved 😂😂😂 ac number 32761001

  • art_inspires Amy Carter (@art_inspires) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia why can’t I get through to your technical helpline - we’ve tried last night and tonight. The waiting times are ridiculous. And the problem still isn’t fixed.

  • KevinRenshaw5 Kevin Renshaw (@KevinRenshaw5) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia My concern is that you disconnected me on Saturday and 6 days later and about 5 hours of calls later and 3 times being promised it would back on. I STILL HAVE NO SERVICE! I am not concerned I am annoyed by your inability to act!

  • 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

  • Louisenurse Louise Robinson (@Louisenurse) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin desperately trying to sort husbands phone (reliant on it for elderly relatives) when asked customer services name they put the phone down !!!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • jack_and_hardy DaddyWolf (@jack_and_hardy) reported from Maltby, England

    @virginmedia expect a complaint tomorrow. Trying to screw my son out of a Christmas present and awful customer service. Lied to me about helping me too.

  • 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.

  • HiMartinHere Martin (@HiMartinHere) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I’ve been on hold to you for an hour because YOUR service status says broadband is fine in my area, but mine isn’t working at all. Can you process a refund for the cost of the call. 25p per minute and no answer. No internet.

  • hunter_fumei Fumei (@hunter_fumei) reported

    @virginmedia I tried, was on hold for over half an hour and then got hung up on. Support isn't exactly reliable

  • MaverickMark mark palmer (@MaverickMark) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband down several times in last few hours. 20-30 times down a day for month. Over an hour to get through on phone and then dropped twice. Call up to cancel and that option terminates call and asks me to call back. I want to leave please arrange.

  • Claire_Guiney8 Claire Parker (@Claire_Guiney8) reported

    Tried contacting @virginmedia re moving home all weekend. Chat line so busy it transfers you to textbot. 20 minutes on textbot to tell me no virgin at new home. Phone line takes my details including password then says its too busy to talk to me. I’m moving on Thursday. Help! #

  • captainalexis Alexis Taylor (@captainalexis) reported

    @virginmedia And how do I do that? Your app has details as that’s where I’m getting my lack of service updates from.

  • JoJagiello Joanna Jagiello (@JoJagiello) reported

    @virginmedia So you are happy to just leave it at that? You think its acceptable to let a customer try all these channels, daily, over and over again for weeks on end? Would you be happy with that? I doubt it. And this is why I believe you are simply taking the micky out of me.
