  • whealie Chris Wheal (@whealie) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Have you ever not been too busy? You have the worst customer service known to man. Every comedian compares bad customer service to you. You are the benchmark for bad. I have been trying to get in touch for five hours now. Chat, phone, Twitter and SMS.

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

    @virginmedia No you probably do it understand the extent of your lack of service. We have been having no internet for weeks and every time we call we get the automated voice saying the line is busy and to call later. 3 WEEKS like this. You guys need to sort this out.

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

    @virginmedia Can I please DM you on this issue?

  • MisterBoote Neil C Boote (@MisterBoote) reported from Ealing, England

    So our education system & business activity now utterly reliant on solid, fast, reliable internet service that market consistently fails to deliver. @virginmedia down again this am. Time for state to take control of this crucial, strategic infrastructure. Really is a joke ATM.

  • markpink Mark Pinkerton 💙🚴‍♂️ (@markpink) reported from Islington, England

    @Leigh5Tom @virginmedia As an existing customer, they are known for their poor customer service. Can never get through on phone and that is main access point to info. Website CS info poor, with zero joined up thinking. Pretty good speed when working. Good luck!

  • DJ_Jamesie Jamesie (@DJ_Jamesie) reported from Islington, England

    @PaulJoh30516408 @virginmedia Real shame as the broadband is good. The engineer was a really nice fella too. Just the phone customer service...

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from Ilford, England

    @fabsod @virginmedia Disgusting customer services 🤬

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

    @virginmedia You probably do not get we are in a pandemic and need to be working from home?!?! We’re having issues that are work-related due to your negligence as a provider. We’ve called again and we’re promised the issue would be fixed by tomorrow. Just like last time. LIARS. Refund us all!

  • 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!

  • LisaKathryn5 Lisa Kathryn (@LisaKathryn5) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia is on demand down for the night? Several reboots, called 150 , robot voice ran the so called check and said all was ok. V217 code brings up ‘contact us’ error on the ‘brilliant’ new app. Please advise

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia I did call. One chap was very helpful and referred the poor broadband service and a faulty landline for two years to @Ofcom and the latter chap was not very helpful. Would you stay and have your monthly fee go from £28.50 to £49.50?

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

    @virginmedia Just spent an hour on the phone to yourselves, not only is the service going to be referred to @Ofcom due to frequent drops in the service + no LL, but you can’t offer me a 12mth contract insisting I have 18mth. Well, I might take up @SkyTV’s offer reluctantly. #Ealing

  • BancoDePapa グラハム・スミス® (@BancoDePapa) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Made an official complaint as I was without broadband for FOUR days in January in the UB5 area Your resolution team's reply was it's working now.. No compensation, no explanation...Given a number to complain within 28 days that went dead when I rang it..Please DM me for details

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

    @virginmedia That is not true. We are meant to have the fastest speed at 200 but it rarely goes over 50. The connection is unstable and is throttled at busy times. It cuts out and is unreliable plus it is impossible to get hold of support. Shameful and shambolic.

  • apjoseph2013 Arun Joseph (@apjoseph2013) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia When I ring this number (which is what I have been trying) all I get is “we are sorry, we are busy, you might want to call us later” & the line disconnects. This is awful service VM. How can you run such an appalling service where we cannot get hold of anyone for help/support.

  • apjoseph2013 Arun Joseph (@apjoseph2013) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Can you arrange someone to call me? I have been trying to call your service since I received the letter - which was middle of Jan.

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

    @virginmedia LS, just tried to send a text to your CS and the number is invalid. Is this a scam? @virginmedia charging £49.50 for a worse service than ever before and no working landline.

  • Spinnofflondon Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I pay more for that not part of your service that I’m paying you for every month

  • 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.

  • jimmyoates James Oates (@jimmyoates) reported

  • gemgemmzzzz1 G (@gemgemmzzzz1) reported

  • tophat_lady Lauren Green (@tophat_lady) reported

    @virginmedia There are no service issues, I’ve rebooted the box etc. it happens every few months. I report it and it magically works between 2mins and a few hours later.

  • gemmak500 ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it’s showing issues but we are still being treated like this is a new issue with no history. 😩

  • stephwillbye_2 💖Stephanie💖 (@stephwillbye_2) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have, I agreed £45 due to all the trouble we have had and that’s why one of your staff members said that price so you don’t then go and take 115 and no it’s on the floor

  • CAIS_Files CAIS Files 💙 (@CAIS_Files) reported

    @virginmedia It won’t allow me to connect to my work internal VPN from home - I have spoken to IT department at work & they report this is a common issue with #virginmedia as my trust use IPV4 whereas virgin IPV6 & this results in being at times incompatible

  • Jaymead109 Jason mead (@Jaymead109) reported

    @virginmedia I had 25mbps up to 48mbps download speed on my xbox now even with a new console I'm on 4mbps its ridiculous. You are just empty promisers your apparently fixing it all the time but in reality you dont you tinkered with it and now we have **** all.

  • Jaymead109 Jason mead (@Jaymead109) reported

    @virginmedia There is no actual help like an engineer or technician to fix my wifi theres no discounts on what we are paying a month whilst getting absolutely **** for it there is a bare minimum and you cant even provide it. I'm not being funny but when we joined you we had lovely internet

  • Synfetic_ Synfetic (@Synfetic_) reported

    @virginmedia Yes there is no issues as it fixes itself after 10 mins. Like I said this seems to be a nationwide issue and not just with me… maybe you should search some tweets to see what I mean

  • butterworthj1 john butterworth (@butterworthj1) reported

    @virginmedia An approx date of 7th September which would mean 9 days of various interruptions of my service? Do you really think this is acceptable? Having to restart my hub everyday in the middle of watching programmes?
