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

    @virginmedia To box not working. Got it sorted now but not happy with been miss sold a package I didn't need then had to waste more time on the phone to cancel it

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

    @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 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

  • andyksheffield
    Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

  • AndyM50760310
    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.

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

    @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  • 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

  • Helen_Claire71
    Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

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

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

  • 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

    @DysphasiaPV @virginmedia Product is good but customer service terrible

  • maddyarden
    Prof Maddy Arden (@maddyarden) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

  • YorkshireChuff
    Yorkshire Chuff (@YorkshireChuff) reported from Sheffield, England

    Reading all the tweets from you idiots who haven't got unlimited 5g hotspot. Been paying for this for years. For this very moment. **** you #virginmedia

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

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

    @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

  • 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

  • EJJFoster
    Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

    Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, England

    Anyone else’s @virginmedia WiFi down ?Mines been down nearly 24 hrs 🥲

    @virginmedia Two months + before I get contacted by 02/Virgin Media regarding my ongoing complaint and all you can offer me for broken promises is £20. No phone calls before today and you are a communication company. Not good enough!

  • Sheppo1874
    Ryan Sheppard (@Sheppo1874) reported

    @alisonclay71 @virginmedia They’re the worst. I was a customer for over 10 years and moved house recently. They refused to move the service to my new house. Incredibly poor service. Also, be prepared for them to chase you constantly to return their kit or they’ll charge you for it!

    @virginmedia I've just had one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever encountered over the phone. The representative I spoke to today was incredibly rude, dismissive, and unhelpful throughout the call!
