  • MarcosJimClowes Marcos Clowes FCILT (@MarcosJimClowes) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been through all of that. A totally useless service. I’ve asked to be mailed an account password. So I need to wait for that as they told me no other way to help.

  • small1808 nathan (@small1808) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia been on hold with one of your customer service agents for 45 minutes now hope she is alright

  • iMeyrick Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @zebadee1985 @virginmedia Virgin Media, fastest speeds but slowest customer service. It’s a massive shame, it really lets them down.

  • mrsclholdcroft Claire Holdcroft (@mrsclholdcroft) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia can you please tell me how to ensure that you cancel my contract? I have tried since June! I’ve moved out and you keep on sending me bills and notices of not paying! The chat is useless as no one actually helps! It then disconnects! So disappointed.

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England

    @virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

  • richiechuff Richie Knight (@richiechuff) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia You don’t see chuff all in stoke because of how **** your service as become constant buffering issues now for months How do we claim refunds for loss of service

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia It might be best if you send a DM - we had a phone call from people who said they were virgin support. We have a phone number but the call felt wrong

  • CraigST6 CR #GTTO (@CraigST6) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia @SkySports @SkySportsBoxing £26 for HD and so far the picture quality has been garbage. Pixilated every 5 seconds or so. Sort it out or refund everyone affected.

  • MarcosJimClowes Marcos Clowes FCILT (@MarcosJimClowes) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia They refused to tell me as they said it contravened GDPR rules, I asked if they could tell me the minimum I needed to pay so as not to involve GDPR. They weren’t able to help.

  • small1808 nathan (@small1808) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia an hour on hold and still no further forward 😭😭😭😭😭 this is why i dont ring with problems with my service from you

  • MarcosJimClowes Marcos Clowes FCILT (@MarcosJimClowes) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia I have lost my internet and TV channels. I don’t have access to the login details or my phone number to resolve online and I can’t get any answer on the phones despite waiting a very long time. How can I resolve this please?

  • princessandtoad Lady Gray (@princessandtoad) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @StaffordTownUK @virginmedia It’s virgin media..... same reason I left..... my speed was awful

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Is anyone answering your phones???!!!!!!. I've been hanging on for 35 minutes. Disgusting customer service.

  • williamtm Will Hook (@williamtm) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia had packet loss for a solid four days now in the ST16 area (Stafford)…any chance of a fix? It’s impacting my ability to work from home and in the evening I’ve not been able to watch YouTube/Netflix/etc without it buffering constantly.

  • marcalmond7 Marc Almond (@marcalmond7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TheHammer180 @virginmedia Best thing to do is give your 30 days notice to cancel and they will call you directly with an offer! Happened to me twice now!

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to sort out the issue off my password not working and the internet dropping out for over a week. I am getting passed around in circles. Please can you tell me how much notice I need give to leave and also give me an email for complaints please

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Why cant someone just ring me so I can actually explain what the problem is. When I try and light in it does not recognize my mothers maiden name and I'm sure I have got that right so then I cant get any further

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Sorry doesn't fix the problem

  • mbally91 Mathew (@mbally91) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia why do your advisors keep hanging up randomly during my calls? Trying to find upgrade offers!? Shocking service will be looking to disconnect. What you saying @SkyUK?

  • StaffordTownUK Stocky. (@StaffordTownUK) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia what are you doing to resolve the broadband ongoing performance and outage issues I'm Stafford. Many people /sites complaining.

  • paul63384494 paul (@paul63384494) reported

    @virginmedia only company I know that when your wifi is not working you can’t actually speak or chat to a human only a bot that can’t do anything pathetic no wonder everyone says avoid virgin like the plague!!!!!!

  • sharmakunaltata Kunal Sharma (@sharmakunaltata) reported

    @virginmedia I am a customer of yours since 2014. I have a very instable Internet connection since 2 months and its affecting my work. Everytime I call customer service they say the next time you call we will replace your router and fix the issue. Awful customer service

  • ajohiwerei Ade✌🏽 (@ajohiwerei) reported

    @virginmedia wifi is the worst!

  • Jaames08 James (@Jaames08) reported

    Tried to renew my @virginmedia broadband/TV contract today, got 3 different prices from 3 agents and they all said that existing customers can’t pay the same as new customers, they have to pay more. Since when did it become cheaper to lose customers? Virgin Media is terrible!

  • StupotSinders Stuart Sinderbury (@StupotSinders) reported

    @virginmedia My online account now says that I'm not a customer anymore. :(

  • TravelFoodBooze Craig and Lisa McKnight (@TravelFoodBooze) reported

    @virginmedia Same here. On a Monday I look even worse. Looking forward to chatting to see if someone from Virgin can help!

  • Knightmayors Alex Magowan (@Knightmayors) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, C-300322101 was my original complaint. C-0104221438 is one another agent created and resolved (not sure why). They said it would mean I would get a call back but I still haven't recieved one.

  • defebe dave stead (@defebe) reported

    @virginmedia okay, so you can't order a remote from the website as when you try, it fails. But the rest of the site is just so flakey. I find it hard to believe "you/vm" don't know this. Surely you track errors via some sort of analytics? "confirmation?"

  • CathRob92343204 Cath Roberts (@CathRob92343204) reported

    @virginmedia No, you want customers who have been with you years to pay more than other customers. We are not asking straight after or while in a deal we have been paying more than the top bundle for a far less service out of contract. Plus the insistence to get a sim we don't want?
