  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Still no reply from any of your online contacts - unacceptable customer service

  • CMS200 Chris S (@CMS200) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Not very helpful. If your company can’t fix the issue, why would the community be able to? Spent another hour on the phone again today, again being told I will get a call back in 45 mins. It didn’t happen. Still no email!

  • sunnydeo Sunny Deo (@sunnydeo) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia you have one hour to respond with a solution. 5 - hours spent on call centres 3 - failed outdoor pre-installations. 2 - failed indoor wifi installations. 1st - time customer. This how you treat customers? No solution today, fine, I’ll go with @skytv

  • Ethanisraelite Ethan Greenwood (@Ethanisraelite) reported from Barnet, England

    Dear @virginmedia since you refuse to pick up your phones and there is no way to contact you I wish to cancel my broadband contract on march 05th. Please do not renew it.

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia @garysmartin Your service isn’t even worth half the money you charge

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Anyone thinking about using Virgin Media read all the negative feedback first. This company does not deliver the speeds it promises and worse the services are disrupted and unstable. Impossible to get through to customer services and impossible to cancel.

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia That is a lie and your as should be reported. If your wifi works it early gets up to the speed that you charge me for. You also fail to mention that you slow down speeds when everyone is watching. So many disappointments when the wheel start spinning

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Is that the terminology? As I said I don’t wish to discuss it on Twitter. Think a complaint is now in order and a cancellation request.

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @Devylonely @virginmedia Try and cancel if you can. Read through the review on Twitter. People can’t get through to cancel. Get another small provider who have a real phone number to call and people who can help you.

  • AnnieLouLDN Annie Lou (@AnnieLouLDN) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia I want to use your app, I really do but I can’t create an account as my acc no (as found on top right of my paper bill) is only 8 digits. And not the 9 you require. Why is using your service so difficult? And my internet connection so rubbish? PS. I can count!

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hello anyone there? Could you please reply to my last message? As my landline is not working and there is no email support it seems Twitter is the only other way to get hold of Virgin Media. Please advice how to get hold of customer services not 0345 as too expensive

  • Mark_Phillips66 Mark Phillips 💙 (@Mark_Phillips66) reported from Camden Town, England

    Yet more #virginmedia problems in NW5 - every day this week @virginmedia

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia @prtmunro Communication with bots? Automated systems? I tried all. My landline still not working. And no one got back to me. Your customer service policy comes close to fraud

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @suzy1978 @virginmedia Let me tell you, leaving is made impossible by Virgin. I tried every Avenue and had to cancel my direct debit as a last resort

  • AgneseRovati Agnese Rovati ✨ English-Italian Translator ✨ (@AgneseRovati) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia worst internet provide and customer service ever!!! You’re honestly the absolute worst. We’re told that due to the useless internet for weeks on end, we could leave without fees. And now that we call to cancel you want to charge us?!?! Pathetic

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I recommend to anyone never to consider taking out a Virgin Contract. Be careful to read other customers reviews. Once you sign up there is no way to leave again. You’ll be holding in the waiting queue until the end of your life.

  • jemmacrow Jemma Crow (@jemmacrow) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia still had no response to why my internet is so shockingly bad. Not great when trying to work from home...

  • Mark_Phillips66 Mark Phillips 💙 (@Mark_Phillips66) reported from Camden Town, England

    @TitaLulah @virginmedia They’re very poor - in service. They must be rolling in cash though.

  • AnnieLouLDN Annie Lou (@AnnieLouLDN) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Spoke to someone in customer service and hopefully your IT dept will resolve the app issues .... but you still haven’t replied to this tweet AND my internet connection is atrocious. So glad I’m teaching online .... not 😩😠

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia It doesn’t for me. Virgin has build a wall of impenetrable bots and automised systems that makes any communication impossible.well done of not making any attempt to help your customers. This is such an arrogant attitude

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • guangmei guangmei (@guangmei) reported

    @virginmedia An email was received that the first complaint had been resolved and closed. I was expecting a phone call from the supervisor and a resolution. The second was regarding the 1st complaint on why it was closed without discussion. So no wasn’t a duplicate complaint.

  • riccardochapman Rico (@riccardochapman) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I can't seem to get logged into My Virgin Media. Not recognising my logins or account details. Can you help?

  • suthers1991 Daniel (@suthers1991) reported

    @virginmedia What is the complaints email address I’ve a very serious complaint the agents on the phone are useless and For the second time in a week they have cancelled my broadband

  • KeithCP2 Keith Pates (@KeithCP2) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @virginmedia what a waste of time your agent Kath is not interested in helping all sge is interested in is getting the land line fixed it has not worked for 3 years not going to bother now Attrocious Customer Service I will be taking this further 23 years a Customer & can't help

  • matthewdbooth Matt (@matthewdbooth) reported

    @virginmedia business customer service is the *worst*. I would crawl naked over broken glass just to get to a self-service web interface. Please, please, please don't make me speak to another customer service rep 😭

  • garethpwoodcock Gareth Woodcock (@garethpwoodcock) reported

    @virginmedia So gave my notice to terminate 2 weeks ago and you STILL haven't been in touch. You really don't like to communicate at Virgin do you !?

  • staceysarahxo Stacey Sarah (@staceysarahxo) reported

    @virginmedia No it doesn't, it just says that we've identified that there's an issue in your area and it will be fixed by 8:25pm. I'm now trying to log into your app it says I have an acc but when I try to reset the password it says the acc doesn't exist. How do you work that one out?

  • Scotteboy75 Scott Robertson (@Scotteboy75) reported

    So is it common for @virginmedia to let new customers down by not having the external pre install work carried out prior to the main install day. Shocking service for a provider trying to make their mark in to a new area which is currently dominated by @SkyUK

  • Da8blue Des Collier ⭐⭐ (@Da8blue) reported

    @virginmedia I'm waiting for a response from Customer Relation messaging team who will conveniently close at 5pm (41 minutes time) having sat online for most of my working day waiting for replies !!!! Shocking 😡🤬

  • ScienceOfDesign Nathanael Rouillard (@ScienceOfDesign) reported

    @virginmedia That sounds like that's not my problem. After being patronised and insulted, and your business decision not to let us self serve our service cancellations.
