    @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

    @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

    Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @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 failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

    Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported from Sheffield, England

    Well @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia How do I open a complaint then, because I’m still stuck on the phone with her and she is refusing to let me make my complaint.

  • AndrewKerrison6
    Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

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

    @virginmedia all services in the WF1 area of Wakefield have been down all day and looking like 6pm to be fixed. Will you be applying any credit to people's accounts?? Good will gesture and all that! #wakefield

  • pidgpie

    Virginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down

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

    @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

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

    @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  • AnnielizzieSten

    @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia I can’t help with that. Good luck.

    -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

    @virginmedia as a rejoining customer, how do I set up an account with my old accounts e-mail address? #gettingstuck #shouldbeeasier

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

    @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

  • John_murphy1
    John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

  • goonie2008
    Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Virgin/Sky. Two sides of the same coin. Be prepared to cancel when negotiating.

  • READY2MIX
    Concerned #CANZUK 🇬🇧🇳🇿🇨🇦🇦🇺 (@READY2MIX) reported

    I've tried 36 times to log in to my account. The process involves downloading an email, pressing a button to return to the screen—what f****** screen?—then trying the alternative options, sending a text, getting to another page, linking something up, and doing this repeatedly. Still only want the router model name. Incompetent and useless. Can't just have an email and a password, gotta get sent a text that doesn't f****** work, get sent an email that doesn't f****** work, do it 38 times or do it for the rest of my f****** life. #Virginmedia made it easier for who the f***? All these corporations and banks always improving either the taste of processed food or their login process and, it's never f****** easy, so who are they improving it for? It's like they are teaching us to take instructions have to get on the phone press this press that press that press that teaching us to obey constantly. Use the app it's easier f*** is it.! #news

    @gblondon1 @skytv Asked Virgin Media what options do I have for having their TV service in different parts of the house without running cables through my home...they offered me a firestick!

    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @O2 @davehpayne O2 have went downhill since merging with virgin media, been a loyal customer of 02 for over 20 years but considering leaving when my contract is up.

  • Georgialisa
    Georgia Lisa (@Georgialisa) reported

    @virginmedia you’ve put the price of my broadband up yet the connectivity is worse - I cannot get connection upstairs in my house and my devices hive/ring etc are no longer working and you have no contact email on your website - poor service

  • anspailpin
    An Spailpín Fánach (@anspailpin) reported

    @38086fd7be4a4e2 So I understand. It'll be interesting to see if they keep that up for the tournament. BTW, do you know if ITV do the dog much with ads? Virgin Media are savage for ads just before rugby games, for instane, and at half time. RTE are bad too, but not as bad. How are ITV?

  • SweeneyJoanne
    JS (@SweeneyJoanne) reported

    @virginmedia I cannot tell you how horrendous my experience has been. 4 weeks later, no install, a broken path and I have no broadband! You didn’t show up again!!!! No communication either.
