    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Now I am told they will send me a new hub as they do think I have problems T the house . That’s why VM booked a engineer it was not me who did it . Time will tell if the goal post moves again today

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.

    Virgin Media you suck! Going down as England start to choke in the run chase. Switched to BBC/ABC Radio over Sky Go 🙄

  • Editmonster
    Stewart Daniels (@Editmonster) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia got a bit of issue which has been doing on for two weeks and now been told it need to go to Networks Team , is there anyway of knowing when this repair will happen

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

  • marionmurray13
    Maz 💙 (@marionmurray13) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia This is the standard service received from you if you have a fault!

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    Nope, not just me. Hurry up & fix it @virginmedia , I want to watch the game in UHD

  • Omnomnick
    Nick Blackburn (@Omnomnick) reported from Camden Town, England

    @hellylovesrawk @Ellydoestelly @CTweakThorne Oh no, never at work! This was to Virgin Media, who were clawing onto keeping me as a customer and sending me bills months after I'd cancelled the service!

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @dpjohnston10 Complaints procedure is non existent. If you phone, promised call back never happens, webform complaint doesn’t work and hasn’t since at least 28/09. Sent letter 3 wks ago - no response, despite website saying response within 48 hours. Ombudsman here we come.

  • Gosbo68
    Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi still down.

  • Lisboadolphin71
    Lusitano71 (@Lisboadolphin71) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia no services for all 5 days now! Your customer care is appalling! And, apparently, nothing is wrong, according to your website. Bad!!

  • MannyMontanaro
    Manny Montanaro (@MannyMontanaro) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @MissyElly @virginmedia Worst thing I did last year was move from #sky to @virginmedia I’ve only had it installed for about 6 months & I’ve never had a single month without having some sort of issue. You’re better off elsewhere!

  • madebycatem
    Cate McLaurin (@madebycatem) reported from Camden Town, England

    Hello @virginmedia I get that things break sometimes. Do you think there’s a way you cld keep customers informed about how long it might take to fix it? I’ve tried your status page which tells me both that there’s no issue in our area and also that there is an issue . .

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia how do I connect to London Underground WiFi now you have turned off your own hotspots? Hopefully you are not just depriving all Virgin Media customers of the service! Especially as you are putting all your prices up!

  • marionmurray13
    Maz 💙 (@marionmurray13) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia I lost all services yesterday, without warning. The automated message advised that the fault would be fixed by today! I had to go through numerous teams before I could finally get to speak to someone. This same customer support agent was supposed to call me today once the fault

  • sallyhhk
    SallyH (@sallyhhk) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia 3 hours of online chat and I’m still haven’t managed to cancel my subscription. Why is it so difficult??

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia It’s the same number I’ve had for over 30 years. Read previous tweets! I wanted rid of Virgin because Customer service is really lousy. I see you’re pushing the blame to other provider without evidence. Sounds about right How long wait for someone to answer the phone today?

  • shaunpmurray49
    shaun Murray (@shaunpmurray49) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia now my deal had run out I need to cancel the sports . Do i just ring up

  • nan2thou
    PAT WEBB (@nan2thou) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Not now there isn’t. But there was no service at 8am until 10.30. T happens on a regular basis but it doesn’t stop the price going up.

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

    Endeavour (@itsendeavour) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I had this trouble with British Gas. Absolutely appalling customer service from them as well. I still get automated emails to her email even after closing her account 3 years ago. These big companies are utterly useless.

  • Adam83492464721
    Adam (@Adam83492464721) reported

    @Nasher6328 @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Nah **** that. If I need to go through the song and dance anyway I may as well switch and get whatever freebies they throw to new customers. It’s just a stupid system that doesn’t reward loyalty and means we all have to waste our time every 2 years.

  • meta_element
    Yogesh (@meta_element) reported

    @virginmedia virgin media your customer support for broadband billing is such a pain to deal with. Shame on you.

  • awinnibago
    who is number 1? (@awinnibago) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Never deal with any company that uses the words “reach out”.

  • janethebuell
    Jane (@janethebuell) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Same problem with @skytv. Told them mum had died & wanted account closed. They said "we cannot close the account, we need to talk to the account holder". I repeated she died. I gave up, sent the equipment back & ignored the flurry of demanding emails. Very distressing.

  • neilheppen
    Heppo (@neilheppen) reported

    @virginmedia @GeoffJonners Why should that matter. An existing customers should be offered the same renewal deal whether online or by speaking to an agent. But of course that's not the case - and even the online renewal offer goes up or down every couple of days. Time the regulators got to grips with it.

  • Lfc93Werb
    werb (@Lfc93Werb) reported

    @virginmedia @PeteUK7 Chatting ****. My credit rating got destroyed after I left O2 and they sorted all the paperwork then years later a mistake on their end had them deciding I hadn't and they invented a debt and solid it to a debt company. All phone companies are massive scam artists

    @virginmedia What a disgrace of a company terrible customer service. Trying to speak someone is a nightmare

    I had the same problem with @skybroadcasting and left to join @virginmedia early this year.

  • MonsterMikeyG
    mike gorman💙 (@MonsterMikeyG) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia I cancelled @virginmedia after 15years last week as my bill hit £200. They offered me a decent package but I said no. Phoned me over 6 times over the next 2 days before I answered only for them to offer me a worse deal than the one I turned down. Madness
