    Not happy with @virginmedia for the past couple of weeks my download speed has dropped to 1/3rd of what i am paying for and no way to talk to an actual person about it. Just a robot that jeeps telling me to do the crap ive already done 10 times already. 😡🤬😡

  • Healeybrooks
    Healey 🤍💛💙🏆 (@Healeybrooks) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Yes after 1.5 days I heard from tech team who said I need faster broadband, they put me in queue for customer relations who upgraded me last night but today we've lost internet 4 times 🤬 Will give it another day but probs spending tomorrow night onwards trying to get through 😡

    @virginmedia Cos I've been a customer for well over a decade and I'm sick of seeing new customers get given the moon on a stick to join. I reckon your sales team would let a new customer have a night with their wives to sign them up. But loyal customers get nothing.

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia It admits it’s not working .. says my coverage of a **** .. then offers to fix it for another £60/year .. same week they send me a letter to say my bill is increasing anyway .. clearly forgotten we’re in a pandemic!!!

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia please please can someone help me. I left virgin in October and have had several calls to say I didn't ask to. Now they are threatening me with debt recovery. Is this correct

  • Healeybrooks
    Healey 🤍💛💙🏆 (@Healeybrooks) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia are the absolute worst company I have ever come across. 18 days trying to get them sort their shambolic internet dropping & still being passed from 1 agent to another in same team. Don't waste your time with this company. They have no idea what customer service is.

  • ReeceBryan94

    @virginmedia when are we going to finally have some functional WiFi service from yourself? 3/4 days constant issues... pathetic

  • ReeceBryan94
    Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to start issuing people the Hub 4 as the SH3 is useless for delivering wifi. Doesn’t help that you seem to be constantly having issues and massive speed problems over the last month. Any chance of us actually getting a service that we pay for?!

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia so. I left virgin media in October after 19 years, not that I wanted to. I just was fed up of new customers getting a better deal. Now I keep getting billed and its up to £150. How can I stop this. Been on the phone 20mins but had to put it down 😤😤😤

  • mrriddlesworth
    Mr Riddlesworth (@mrriddlesworth) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I test through a wired connection, i have already sent a complaint form with all the details on the online portal.

  • liaryredhead

    @virginmedia - 3 scam phone calls this morning from a company impersonating Virgin Media- by the third time they were just plan rude when I would not respond

  • bally79
    Suzy Swift (@bally79) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Can’t get through to customer services need an engineer to come to mums as unable to set up broadband and phone line! And why you sent out a tv box when she isn’t having virgin tv is puzzling?!

  • Gag_N_Bone_Man
    Graeme Rayner 💙 (@Gag_N_Bone_Man) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I'm moving to sky, saving a tenner a month and adding sports and movies. I might be back in 18 months. Seems like hopping between providers is the only way to get a decent deal. It's perverse logic. Surely cheaper to retain a customer than gain one? But no, so I'm off.

  • ReeceBryan94
    Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to provide a functional service? Having to constantly reboot your pile of **** “Superhub 3” multiple times a day because you’re saying that’s the fault... what exactly am I paying for? #Virginmediaisshite

  • JohnLeesley
    john leesley (@JohnLeesley) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia appalling service virgin media! On 24/12 v6 box broke. So far, 4 telephone calls, 3 promises of calls back (not received), told new box posted to us but it wasn’t, engineer appointment cancelled by virgin with no explanation. Week later & still cant watch tv

  • PippaKOldfield
    Pippa Oldfield (@PippaKOldfield) reported from Wakefield, England

    @AssistanceVm @TranslatioNinja @virginmedia That’s a bit of a salty reply. I think your customer was referring to various barriers in the way of cancelling her contract, not the difficulty involved in selecting call options. She’s still been unable to cancel and is being pressured her to keep her contract.

  • Mashcat
    Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia I’ll try calling again tomorrow and go through to cancellations.. if they won’t sort I’ll leave .. I’ve only ever had them too - never used another provider 🙈

  • Gag_N_Bone_Man
    Graeme Rayner 💙 (@Gag_N_Bone_Man) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @iamaafaq @sky @virginmedia Point of principle now. Been with virgin for over a decade and the deal is awful. They don't reward loyalty. Grwat package from Sky. Only are that's worse is speed but for our purposes it's fine. We don't game online and i no longer download torrents etc

  • Mashcat
    Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Hi no - the link is broken and chat says up to 4 hour wait 🙈 .. please just want to order the booster please

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

    @virginmedia You failed to activate my account, for 8 days but charged me anyway. I've raised that issue several times but your useless customer service still hasn't refunded the money you robbed me. Hope this is enough info for those who want to join Virgin Media

  • DrMammon
    Matthias Ammon (@DrMammon) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, there's a TV issue and a broadband issue in my postcode which might be fixed by 21.40 tonight (TV was working despite this until half an hour ago) but obviously that is of no use to me for 5pm. Rebooted the TiVo box and it's now stuck not being able to load channel info.
