  • _Lewis_A Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from Romford, England

    So @virginmedia want £288 to cancel a contract I've had since 2018. Can I get through to anyone to speak about it? NO!!

  • LutherB40510976 Luther Blissett (@LutherB40510976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia what is the number for your complaints department? It seems impossible to actually terminate my contract with you. Am I in the Hotel California?

  • LutherB40510976 Luther Blissett (@LutherB40510976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia can you give me a direct number to call to cancel my contract. I've used whataspp / webchat and spoken to two people in last 24 hours - but to no avail.

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia How long is due course? I’ve already spent hours on this issue with no resolution. I started this chat conversation on Wednesday 1st February. Wouldn’t you agree the customer service from Virgin is woeful?

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I did and it said the service was ok. It’s now working after several times of going onto Amazon. I just don’t know why the service has become so poor recently

  • BobCratchitt Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have checked the service status, it is the first thing I do & all was fine. The issues is with the cable Ethernet & the phone connection in the Hub 4. I don’t use your WiFi setup as my house is fully cabled for networking. I am a Network Architect, so have done basic tests

  • dicksielives David Ball (@dicksielives) reported from Romford, England

    Hi @virginmedia I ordered a new phone via my wife (who is already on Virgin mobile) last Friday. I was told to wait for a confirmation email which I still have not received. Can you help? I have the order No.

  • _Lewis_A Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from Romford, England

    On phone to @virginmedia for 55 mins to cancel, speak to 4 different people about a mis-sold service and then when I ask them to produce my contract they hang up. Not happy.

  • AnnieCaird Annie Caird 🌻 (@AnnieCaird) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

  • LaurenLFlower charlie and Blossom (@LaurenLFlower) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Hi I have an issue with my current plan? It says I’ve cancelled my O2 benefits but I never received the sim nor did I cancel.

  • BobCratchitt Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

  • ravinrr80 Ravin 🇹🇹🇬🇧 (@ravinrr80) reported from Merton, England

    Hey @virginmedia I already am paying more with this new package I was forced to take to renew my contract recently and now you want to force me to pay £7 MORE a month?! Also why can I not get a human on the phone?! I refuse to pay a penny more. Fix this nonsense.

  • BobCratchitt Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia Well I guess as it went down Wednesday afternoon and if all goes well back up tomorrow we will automatically qualify.

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia DB was dealing with this issue but has not responded since lunchtime Friday

  • tlcko1882 Burnley Dave:Not woke just human.💙🌈🍺🇪🇺 (@tlcko1882) reported from London, England

    @journokeith @virginmedia Good as in they acknowledged your existence was what I meant. That's how their "customer services" is set up, they don't have the staff based in the UK to deal with it and all they can do is what they are doing.

  • Ivan_D_Crypto Crypto Ivan (@Ivan_D_Crypto) reported from Hackney, England

    @hummzak We at Virgin Media have a brand new IPTV service for 35 pounds flat fee, no monthly subscription + you get installations and service support, so it if breaks well fix replace it at no cost. Let me know if your interested

  • blackheathma Amanda Birrell (@blackheathma) reported from London, England

    @MartinSLewis It is the worst company I have ever dealt with and I’m now actively discouraging others to use Virgin Media. Cancelling is also very difficult and deliberately so

  • RogerHighfield Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia My broadband is down again - area21. Any idea of when it will be fixed?

  • nathantalbot Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported from City of London, England

    (Testing) colleague asked if is there a virgin media outage but it’s working fine in EC1A.

  • RogerHighfield Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia, your app does not seem to think there's a problem with the internet in area 21. I think different. Can you check?!

  • GrumpyHatLady zombiehatlady (@GrumpyHatLady) reported

    Hi @virginmedia according to your service status check we’ve cancelled our broadband (we haven’t & you’ve taken payment recently) Problem is you expect us to call an 0345 number as we don’t have a land line, to fix the problem.

  • funkynites lee (wes) Mccullough (@funkynites) reported

    Does anyone else find @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp have terrible customer service and take no responsibility for errors on their part? Been having an ongoing issue and when wanting to move address was told there be a fee since they don’t have coverage in my new area.

  • Mjsmithyy94 Mj Smith (@Mjsmithyy94) reported

    @virginmedia bit of a joke to get hold of to talk to anyone.. you just have crap pages that are no help what's so ever! Haven't had internet In the area for almost 24hrs pay all that money a month and you can't even get anything fixed. Useless company.
