  • peterhkirk
    Pete Kirk (@peterhkirk) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I accept more customers are working from home including myself however after a year I would expect a company such as @virginmedia to adapt and do everything within their powers to improve their service, not worsen!!??

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

    @virginmedia Why would I do that!? I am still waiting for a response through a formal complaint from 4 months ago and I am still waiting for that call back from 26/8/20 !!!! YOU DO NOT TREAT CUSTOMERS WITH RESPECT!! People should avoid using your company !! And I will continue to share that!!

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No! I've just spent 26 minutes trying to get through, so I'm just going to pester you on here instead. I've raised three separate complaints to no avail. My only recourse is public humiliation. For a communications company you're really very poor at it.

    Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Also, on the Virgin Media support forums, loads of people complaining text cancelling isn’t working either, hence I wrote.

  • davmacfc
    Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia can you please explain why the best price as a loyal customer for years is 30 pound more expensive than a new customer. Can’t even get through to right department to cancel

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

    @virginmedia yet another example of horrendous service from @virginmedia - “too busy” to deal with my call so disconnected me..... online service that I was directed to .... cannot make the changes I need .... not providing service but guess what .... still charging me !!!

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you've surpassed yourselves this time! 50 days without broadband and yet another promised date of reconnection passed with no communication or explanation. I refuse to waste another sunny weekend waiting for your useless 'customer services' to lie to me.

  • DarkOldWolf
    Jon (@DarkOldWolf) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Can you confirm connectivity issues in Belfast please? I did have to disconnect for new carpet fitting, i put it all together again and it worked. I returned home at 830 to find it down again. #Belfast #VirginMedia #Internet

  • _JennyMcKiernan
    Jennifer McKiernan (@_JennyMcKiernan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Your complaints team appears to have lied to me. They've failed to register my formal complaint about harassment & what appears to be a criminal data breach. This is all over a router that was returned a year ago. Can you help?

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

    Yet a new LOW in crappy “customer service” from @Virginmedia - letter saying they have been trying to contact me (still waiting for a callback from 26/8/20) no attempts made and to text a number to get someone to contact me ...... guess what an automated system that gets

  • rmurrayld
    Ryan Murray (@rmurrayld) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia WiFi down again, heap of sh*ttttttt

  • JaneHolohan
    Jane Emir Holohan (@JaneHolohan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Yes I have - it happens every evening around 10pm - a friend in BT7 has the same problem, we are BT10 ? What happens at 10pm ?

  • peterhkirk
    Pete Kirk (@peterhkirk) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Having spent nearly three hours tonight trying to speak with someone with no luck I would like to know how customers get in touch, how they can get a solid service and when @virginmedia will cop onto what is acceptable as a business provider?? 😡

  • mfearonmusic
    Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I called again on Saturday to resolve this again and I was told this was a crazy amount of discount and that any TL or manager would find it difficult to approve. After hours on the phone and all Managment unable to help, I’ve now been advised to make a complaint.

  • Fionnominal
    Fionntán BP Clarke. (@Fionnominal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia internet down. Newlodge Belfast. It’s hard to tell though because it’s speeds sometimes are slow and stop.

  • Dermo1888
    Dermdog ☭ (@Dermo1888) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I'm shocked how poor you treat your customers. I cancelled my service 10 days ago and somehow you talked me into staying... but then failed to live up to your promises again... I have cancelled today. Thank God for the 14 cooling off period. #Broadband #complaint

  • Tom_R_Finlay
    Tom Rowntree-Finlay (@Tom_R_Finlay) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    Cannot believe how @virginmedia treat their elderly customers. 75 year old women completly let down Have taken her money and delivered no services for two months. Disgusting to leave her isolated with No Sevices and no communication.

  • Ye_Tian_1223
    Tian Ye (@Ye_Tian_1223) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Can’t cancel the broadband service from @virginmedia . Since 2 July, we tried to sent numerous emails/feedbacks and no response received; called for several times and waited for 20 minutes with no one answered the phone. No access on the webpage to cancel the package as well.

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia I've always found them to be really good, been with them years, never a problem, broadband connection is great - we're high usage, and this year they even emailed me to let me know they were keeping my existing discount when my contract was up, I usually renegotiate each time

  • jamiezerofour
    jamiezerofour (@jamiezerofour) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Serious point - I have never ever ever considered virgin media because, for at least 20 years - they have had the most appalling customer services reputation.
