  • 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

  • jim_johnson24 Jim Johnson (@jim_johnson24) reported from Shepley, England

    @virginmedia 7 days and still no @O2 resolution

  • SamWalker03 Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?

  • giinagii GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

    @calvg @virginmedia Thank you 🙏 Stop blaming us and be responsible for your crap connections

  • HarlamTK Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 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?

  • 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.

  • RomegouxLouis Louis Romégoux (@RomegouxLouis) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia please sort the Sky Red button issue which is preventing Sheffield United fans subscribed to Virgin from experiencing the service they've paid for.

  • AdamPagett3 Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

  • andy_english Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

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

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

  • AdamPagett3 Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported from Featherstone, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin Terrible service

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

    @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

  • annie7hudds anne l (@annie7hudds) reported from Fenay Bridge, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on with internet service in HD8 area ? I don’t want to have to wait 23 hours before calling a technician as advised by your service page

  • AdamPagett3 Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia finally after 5 days without a service no streaming tv, being unable to work from home and having to sit in Saturday teatime eaiting for engineer while family go to Halloween party It's finally fixed Now the impossible part making contact to discuss compensation

  • GAMINGDRAGONUK GAMING DRAGON (@GAMINGDRAGONUK) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I already have and I reported the fault bit it see like you have a service outage in my area

  • 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

  • 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

  • a8dullah_mulla Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @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!!!

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

    @virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting

  • BigadeeDave Dave (@BigadeeDave) reported

    @virginmedia This is how you treat your long standing customers.. no point in having the £10 discount is there. Absolute joke trying to get through C/S on phone and no help whatsoever. Again i do not give you permission to take the extra money from my account.

  • KevinSaunders23 Kefaloniaman23 (@KevinSaunders23) reported

    @virginmedia I can get Sky sports live on my tv, the problem is about 7 weeks ago I was unable to get anything live on my PHONE and IPAD I was able too before that

  • UKPenguins UK-Penguins (@UKPenguins) reported

    @virginmedia After 5hrs on hold, 2 days of calling, 3 agents, 6 disconnects and a stupid price incase, you have now fluffed up my contract AGAIN, and I am missing items that you said were included. Do i need to spend another 1hr on hold to talk to a human?

  • MartinCox0155 Martin 'Snazzy' Cox (@MartinCox0155) reported from Croydon, England

    @O2 Because I'm a @virginmedia customer, I'm obliged to use a phone. I'm told I'm not allowed to use my PC. So the Ticketmaster site / app pops up, but there is no option to purchase. I fear this issue is because I do not have an O2 account, only Virgin Media for this.

  • SamWest63 Sam West (@SamWest63) reported

    @virginmedia @Victori56137385 It’s absolutely shocking as a customer I can’t get any help from Virgin Media. I’ve tried contacting customer services and they aren’t accepting any calls due to high volume of calls and demands. Their online chat doesn’t respond to customers either.

  • grem1983 Graham Hodgson (@grem1983) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, is it possible to get someone from your UK team to give me a call regarding a billing issue as I've now been given 2 completely different answers to a billing issue I have by your Customer Service Team

  • Mark83156091 Mark BigFoot1963 (@Mark83156091) reported

    @VBischoff reading your great report on Customer service I had to laugh on the section on @virginmedia Their reply as been the same for the last 10 years They never learn and never will until people leave them in their droves People use them because @WeAreOpenreach are to slow

  • joe_ch1p Joe Chip (@joe_ch1p) reported

    @BIG_McQuill @virginmedia Same here. Lots of people reporting issues and Virgin say there are no images complete bollocks.

  • Harryafc Harry (@Harryafc) reported
