  @virginmedia That is really poor. It should be for Virgin to sort not the public. I spent an hour on the phone on Thursday speaking to a next to useless overseas call centre.

  @virginmedia what's the issue with answering a call? Line went dead, my mum can't receive incoming texts and is due an upgrade. Your customer service is terrible, God only knows what will happen when I call for TV

  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 16 minutes ago from Heckmondwike, England

  @virginmedia somethings never change, £21 price increase can’t get you good customer service. Complaint logged for the second time, will I get response this time? 🤔

  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 20 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

• 
  Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported 23 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

  Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported 23 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 31 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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.

  @virginmedia Well I don't know if the problem has been restored at virgins end I received help and advice from an outside source who showed show me how to work around the problem with manual DNS entries. But for me, working now. Thanks.

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 38 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

• 
  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 46 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I do need assistance over why the 4G backup didn't kick in when I had an outage last week but I've raised that with you already, I hope

  @virginmedia hello, my grandmother is having issues with her TiVo Box, she's checked the cables and I've been online to check for service outage, and there's isn't any reported Can you help?

• 
  Adam (@tevowl9) reported 53 minutes ago 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

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 54 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

• 
  Adam Kieran Fellows (@fellowska) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia and just as I bloody expected, phone gets put down. Absolutely a ******* joke. Been waiting for you to get back to me since Thursday on WhatsApp, your bot can’t put me through to an agent either. Disgraceful customer service

• 
  Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Thanks for responding but there is no sense of urgency in that message ‘respond as soon as possible’ & ‘resolve issue as quick as possible’; have you read the T&Cs & your legal obligations?

  Alex Bellew (@Donaldman34) reported 27 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I am trying to cancel my contract, and every time your chatbot says it is going to connect me to an actual human, the chat disconnects and starts again. This is moderately infuriating to say the least. Can you fix this
