  • MrsFrisk Alex Fusco (@MrsFrisk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I've tried the customer service number 15 times this morning and it isn't connecting. The call just ends. I'm also worried you'll say you can't speak to me. I have a letter of authority but I can't be in my friend's house to call you while he's there due to Covid restrictions

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia are your call centre staff ***************? Ones just been an idiot to me sounded like he couldn't be arsed while ones just sent me down a line that rings out constantly for 20 minutes. Both asked me different security questions and one flat out refused

  • FarnworthHarold Harold Farnworth (@FarnworthHarold) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia what a waste of time promised refund for 3 days no internet or tv .no refund then put bill up customer service a joke over 1 hour to get through

  • reg14reg Nick Poynton (@reg14reg) reported from Bolton, England

    Hi at @virginmedia do you have a contact email address for complaints. Your internet service over the past month has been absolutely awful! Pay for 350mb broadband and currently at the moment having it drop maybe 10-15 times a day and lose all connections.

  • timmarner Tim Marner™ (@timmarner) reported from Bolton, England

    @sitcomsoldiers @virginmedia I’m hoping they apologise and give some compensation but not holding my breath mate, what a serious waste of time their customer service is.

  • johnslater613 john slater (@johnslater613) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia still holding 1:24 mins later. Your customer services are shocking

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝🏳️‍🌈Stay Home (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    It seems my @virginmedia goes down on a weekly basis at the moment. Usually on my days off...🤬

  • RicMichael Ric Michael (@RicMichael) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Still awful. No ones got back to me and the wifi is crumbling

  • Flanagan1Simon Simon Flanagan (@Flanagan1Simon) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia why send texts to customers saying the problem with your broadband is resolved when it obviously isn’t! Left hand, right hand, you know the rest #overpromisemassivelyunderdeliver

  • ConnorJUnsworth Connor Unsworth (@ConnorJUnsworth) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia finally after 1:10 mins on the phone. We have a possible resolution. Whilst the tech on the line was very apologetic and helpful, the waiting, lack of response and overall service is appalling.

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia I probably would have given them the benefit of the doubt and stayed on when moving house but they can **** off. Hope you have better luck next time 👍

  • Nicole_Baker NicoleMichelleBaker (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia I've been passed from pillar to post and I'm.not getting any answers. Can you contact me or cancely service

  • Nicole_Baker NicoleMichelleBaker (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @VirginMediaCorp @virginmedia please contact me, it is imperative that you do. I have received zero customer service from you for a service I pay over £600 a year for. I would like your retention and technical team to make contact asap.

  • JoeHolmes1994 Joe (@JoeHolmes1994) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia are a bag of ******* shite. Mis-sold me broadband and then then told me I was lying ahaha. It’s on recording ***, go **** yourselves you bunch of *********

  • Nicole_Baker NicoleMichelleBaker (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia Then was told a booster would be delivered that never arrived. So when I called back it hadn't actually been ordered. I finally received it yesterday but am still waiting for a call back following a complaint I made and the charges I am not willing to pay for the booster.

  • Nicole_Baker NicoleMichelleBaker (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia I've spent three hours over two calls waiting for you to confirm a discount on my below standard broadband and to deliver a booster. I have had to escalate a complaint as it couldn't be resolved on the phone yet I'm still waiting for the level of service promised!!!

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia That's mental, the options for the departments don't make sense either. To change your package, moving home or thinking of leaving us press 4.I press 4,how can I help you, thinking of leaving you, we can't do that here we will have to transfer you to another department.**** off

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia Exactly the same happened to me just, even had one of the call centre staff say I would've get a dead line when I told her I definitely will. She still transferred me down a dead line. Got told that changing provider isn't a good enough excuse to leave. Its my choice! 😡

    I see @virginmedia has gone down again! They seem to have a major issue. Have they been hacked?

  • SN8661 S (@SN8661) reported

    @virginmedia Nationwide outage have we ever had theirs before? Have your systems been hacked? Is our data safe?

  • MuffySmol Muffy_Smol (@MuffySmol) reported

    @virginmedia This is pathetic, the amount we pay and your service is down again, can’t connect on any of my devices, what makes it worse is your customer support is awful. Your meant to be a huge company but can’t keep the service up or keep your customers informed.

  • Smitsta31 Ian smith (@Smitsta31) reported

    @virginmedia Having problems in ST4 area, internet is on then off! Then on!

  • casalix__ casper (@casalix__) reported

    @virginmedia instead of apologies and copy/paste tweets you could stop raising your prices until you provide a consistent service???

  • RyanHunterRadio Ryan Hunter (@RyanHunterRadio) reported

    @virginmedia so for paying another £60 yesterday, I’m hit with nothing but maintenance issues. If this does not get resolved, I will be terminating my contract under the not being able to receive any broadband coverage whatsoever.
