  • 93DominicSF Dominic Sherry Adams (@93DominicSF) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia customer service is atrocious! Meant to be open to 8PM...but advisors just hanging up the phone instead of answering. Asking us to leave...

  • oharamal Cllr Mal O’Hara (Castle DEA) Belfast (@oharamal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I got through - 1 hour in total on the phone!!! Terrible to have to wait that long. Agent mistake to allocate a disconnect and move to my account. I’m not moving anywhere

  • swalker004 Stephen Walker (@swalker004) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Been a loyal @SkyUK customer for many years, but current process to move to Sky Q has been ongoing since 3rd August. Shocking service and zero communication. Time to cancel and move to @virginmedia

  • PPLOM1 Sarah Lorimer (@PPLOM1) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia. Signed up for 1 month sports channel. Told it would cost £15. Paid three times this. Not informed we had to ring up and cancel. Now three months paying double our usual bill.

  • jai_dee Jim Doran (@jai_dee) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I've already reported both issues. It's highly frustrating that a fault with one service knocks out everything.

  • VizeAv Av (@VizeAv) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Please @virginmedia I need to cancel my service. Spent 35 mins tonight holding for this department and the agent dropped the call mid conversation #notgoodenough #pisspoor #customerservice

  • lowry_t TIM LOWRY (@lowry_t) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia currently experiencing the worst customer service ever,started last week and still ongoing....simply unbelievable...if you want an insight please get in touch ...

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia tried twice to cancel my services with you on hold both times for over 25mins - this is not the way to encourage customers to stay - just gonna cancel my direct debit !!! You can take this tweet as my 30days notice !!!

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia for anyone who is thinking about switching to virgin media don't. Their £50 refer a friend credit doesn't work and they charge £35 for the activation fee and take the first and second month in advance. So now looking at a bill of over £100. Tried to phone but no use

  • internetsense Philip I Wilson (@internetsense) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @beatlebaby84 @virginmedia With all these services I record the time, explain I'm busy and ask them to credit me £20, they never do, but often they'll credit £10 or £8, always worth a try!

  • PPLOM1 Sarah Lorimer (@PPLOM1) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    After a nightmare attempt to firstly speak to someone on the phone I spoke with a rude employee. I was assured no more charges . Email just through stating we will be charged double again this month 🙈 #virginmedia

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Already did that , you are pretty much lying to people taking the first and second month in the first bill. Only have been with you for one month. Your customer team said this was in the terms and conditions. Can guarantee you it's not as I wouldn't have signed up if it was

  • BelfastTory Andrew Fleming (@BelfastTory) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @jst_jelliott @virginmedia Same here. Network is fine but router isn't able to connect to the internet. This happened recently around this time of night a week or so ago. Getting annoying.

  • colorblindjames Peter Whibley (@colorblindjames) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I’m having broadband service issues. I’ve run a test on my equipment and no problem was detected.

  • awakingcell 𝕭𝖊𝖆𝖓 𝖆𝖓 𝕾í (@awakingcell) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Your hold music sucks and it's annoying to have to have a full argument trying to cancel your account thanks. Try some calming music. Hold is rage inducing enough. Stick it in a suggestion box.

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Just tried to phone again and when they transferred me to the complaints department they just hung up. Your customer service is actually appalling

  • bertford robert crawford (@bertford) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No another one of your customers not getting help, paying for movie and not receiving it, then getting no help it reminds me of my time @ virgin

  • oharamal Cllr Mal O’Hara (Castle DEA) Belfast (@oharamal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I’m currently on hold at 38 minutes waiting to speak to customer service - apparently I’m moving house and reinstalling in Craigavon on 3rd December. I live in belfast and have not planned a move. Apparently resolved weeks ago but a flurry of texts yesterday

  • stevehalluk Steve (@stevehalluk) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 As I said earlier. No one at virgin customer service either cares or has a clue what they are doing so it appears.

  • karenpenf karen (@karenpenf) reported

    @virginmedia @Wimbledon Help we have no tv or internet again

  • TrebleTop Lee Knocking treble top (@TrebleTop) reported

    @virginmedia That's great but what is the SLA as I reported the fault on Monday? Life is too short to keep having this nonsense every time there is an issue.

  • TrebleTop Lee Knocking treble top (@TrebleTop) reported

    @virginmedia I've not got an engineer booked for tomorrow, however it's the same every time there is an issue, be it phone, TV or Broadband, the service is painful and you end up having to keep explaining the same thing.

  • Liam_McGroarty Liam McGroarty (@Liam_McGroarty) reported

    @virginmedia been waiting nearly a week now on someone to call me about moving house. We move in on the 20th June. Was told to expect the call within 24-48hrs and still nothing🤔. Only recently renewed my contract Aswell starting to rethink it now with the bad customer service!

  • Dr1Gun GunDR1 (@Dr1Gun) reported

    @virginmedia It happens at midnight from 10pm to 3am past 2days, not just for me but for whole uk. It takes 1 hour just to get through to some one i dont have time for that. Please fix the issue its nation wide, not a specific area.

  • SpiritAngels5 Katie Fowler (@SpiritAngels5) reported from Stapleford Abbotts, England

    @virginmedia how come when you want to cancel your subscription, after 2 days calling you, no reply, yet if I want to join virgin you answer within 2 rings. Now in a WhatsApp chat, since 3pm and still nobody has replied, but been passed from pillar to post! #frustrating

  • Andy0James Andy James (@Andy0James) reported

    @virginmedia I'm waiting on customer relations team. If I text that number I'll be back at square one talking to the people who can't access you actual deals and try sign me up to a full price contract

  • DanielGreensitt Daniel Greensitt (@DanielGreensitt) reported

    @virginmedia More than likely it’s probably been fine today, but soon as it hits midnight that when the problems start

  • Cara_L_RN Cara (@Cara_L_RN) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been back as a customer with you for only 1 week, and already a multitude of issues. Currently, the absolute dysfunction of your app and website meaning I can’t access anything. Not even to find a number to call. #frustrated
