  • MartinClarke165 Martin Clarke (@MartinClarke165) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No service still. Outrageous. No customer support. Online mths all day. Great advert for Virgin. The most reliable broadband provider #poorservice

  • adiDev0 adi (@adiDev0) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia and the broadband has gone down again. Every day around midday. Phone app has problems reaching servers, web service status says my broadband is good. Router flashing or sorts of green lights.

    @Carol74438555 I was having issues with Virgin media too but they are sending me an updated box out so hopefully it will be ok then

  • Karlos26899 Karl Hall (@Karlos26899) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia 30 day notice submitted and a very disappointed now to be ex-customer!!

  • AndyTDEJ Andy H (@AndyTDEJ) reported from Dudley, England

    I think @virginmedia are attempting to outdo @TUIUK for the worst customer services . I’ve spent 45 mins on hold so far waiting to speak to a human . Doesn’t beat 3 and half hours trying Tui but bless Virgin they’re trying. Just appalling 👍

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why has my mobile signal strength dropped now Virgin Mobile is piggybacking off Vodafone? Used to be full strength when you used EE.

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia No they asked me to do some checks which I did then never got a response again. This has been going on weeks now.

  • adam_jordan112 Adam (@adam_jordan112) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m absolutely disgusted with the mobile messaging chat. I have been trying since 11:30am to speak to an advisor and still not getting anywhere. I’d now like to cancel my new order as I am disgusted with the customer service for a new mobile customer!!!

  • mercede72928186 Mercedes Hodson 👷🏻‍♂️💁🏼‍♀️ (@mercede72928186) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia Iv been having issues with my internet connection I believe I need a new box Iv had this box now for some years is there a number I can ring to get this sorted. Thank you.

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia You can stick that. I suggest you fix the connection I’ve been having for weeks now, I can’t even load anything on my phone in the rook directly below. Before you ask I’ve done all the tests too then never heard back from you.

  • henry_1664 Andrew Grove (@henry_1664) reported from Birmingham, England

    Can anyone tell me how you get @virginmedia to respond to and deal with complaints? I am at the end of my tether with them! I have raised 4 complaints now and they have unsatisfactorily responded to 1 which I called back about to keep the complaint open only for them to close...

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @LDTomo @virginmedia 3 times I’ve contacted them now & they’ve done **** all about it. Want £100+ to move a router as well the jokers.

  • NannieHelen Helen Croft (@NannieHelen) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia It’s the WIFi and what can you do about it? I’ve been a customer for many many years and this issue is causing aggravation. Surely I should expect uninterrupted service all day every day. It’s not cheap either is it??

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi is running at 3.4 download speed. This is the 3rd time I’ve contacted and done tests and still no fix has been made.

  • adam_jordan112 Adam (@adam_jordan112) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia has your mobile online order website gone down? It keeps telling me to message or ring to order?

  • leeharris85 lee harris (@leeharris85) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia customer service as good as ever told I’m being put through to another team.... then cut off

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes this was after I reset. I have been trying a hub reset regularly and it doesn’t help. How do I check the package I am on? Im not sure.

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @LDTomo @virginmedia **** that they ain’t having more money off me when their speeds should be much better. It’s never been this bad so there’s an issue somewhere.

  • richiebunn Dickie B (@richiebunn) reported from West Bromwich, England

    The award for the worst ever customer service goes to @virginmedia over an hours wait to get through.

  • NaomiChadwick8 Naomi Chadwick (@NaomiChadwick8) reported

    @virginmedia I’d like to make a complaint about the advisor who spoke to me and hung up on me. I was contacting to leave virgin broadband due to moving out.

  • TheRealMChats Mark Chatterley (@TheRealMChats) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, could you elaborate on ‘we can support if it happens’? Are you saying there will be a fee should we move to a non covered area?

  • paulxdesign Paul Burley (@paulxdesign) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm trying to cancel my broadband contract (it hasn't started yet). I've spent 45 minutes on the phone to your call centre, bounced to 3 separate members of your team (the 3rd of which, cut me off). Can you please sort this out so I don't have to call you?

  • SallyKate_ Sally O'neill (@SallyKate_) reported

    @virginmedia Yes on the test it says there are no issues but we have zero WiFi

  • Jim_Gardner_ Jim Gardner 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@Jim_Gardner_) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband and TV has been offline for over an hour in the TS18 area and the Service Status checker online is just a blank page. Can we get this looked into ASAP please.

  • MsBorok Sigal Borok (@MsBorok) reported

    Why can @virginmedia increase the cost of my TV package in 28% MID CONTRACT but I can’t leave them mid contract?!? Tried customer services twice but got no help! 😡 AFTER 20 YEARS of being a loyal customer, be sure I’m going to leave in August at the end of my contract!!

  • madstad1998 Lord Brett Sinclair (@madstad1998) reported

    Beware if you're a @virginmedia customer. If an engineer visits your property regarding any problem with your landline & leaves you with your phone connected to your modem the likelihood is that your phone won't ring when you're called! Shoddy & VM know but don't tell customers!

  • LFootballStars LittleFootballStars (@LFootballStars) reported

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler I renewed on 9/2 on the basis of a hub4 been sent. Today been told that u don’t have any stock of hub4 since 6/2 &/or my bundle doesn’t qualify for hub4. Ive been miss sold & 28days wait for complaint team whilst I continue to pay u £££’s a month???!

  • BobStapleton Bob Stapleton (@BobStapleton) reported

    @virginmedia Right @virginmedia you have lost a client and ensured the worst review ever, after three and a half months I have given up waiting for you to install and have gone with Sky, their broadband and TV package is already up and running a week after order ordering it!!

  • whiskeyanogo Richard Clarke (@whiskeyanogo) reported

    @grumpyoldprof @virginmedia Admitting that there's an issue would be a help! I notice that I am not alone with these issues now, but the advice is the same in each case - essentially no help! It's obvious that the issue is "their end" but nobody will admit it!
