    @virginmedia @ChesnoidGaming Virgin , impossible to call with issues but instant reply on Twitter

  • MarkCarruthers_ Mark Carruthers (@MarkCarruthers_) reported from Wallsend, England

    What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

  • Lucy__Hedley Lucy Hedley (@Lucy__Hedley) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

  • nufcscott1968 graham scott (@nufcscott1968) reported from Dunston, England

    @virginmedia is there an outage on the network? Can't make calls and no data connection?

  • HebburnCurly Mark Wilson (@HebburnCurly) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Hi, can I add a telephone line to the broadband package that I already have? Looked on your webpage and it’s all bundles with no option to add anything to the service I already purchase

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Wish virginmedia could do something about all the scam calls, I am an virginmedia customer and we are receiving. Had about 30 scam calls just this last week.

  • beyond_vinyl BEYOND VINYL (@beyond_vinyl) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @vmbusiness @virginmedia my phone and broadband is down (#NewcastleUponTyne city centre) we are in a pandemic and I have nothing else to do so need internet!! Any idea when service will be restored??

  • stephwales_ Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England

    Very excellent service from Linzi in the Longbenton call centre today, got my upgrade sorted and we had a good little chat as well whilst she was sorting things. Made me feel a lot better for spending the time I did on hold. @virginmedia

  • amymccordx Amy McCord (@amymccordx) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia how do you log a complaint? It’s made impossible. Emailed the ceo weeks ago and no response

  • john_barrass John Barrass (@john_barrass) reported from Cramlington, England

    @virginmedia why can’t I get through on the phone to cancel my broadband ? I’ve also been in the queue for hours in online Chat, ridiculous customer service

  • Jacq_Critch Jacqueline Critchley (@Jacq_Critch) reported from Longbenton, England

    @virginmedia @Steven_Smith89 I’ve tried reaching out via the telephone number provided on your website, however despite numerous attempts I have failed to speak to anyone & a fault at your end meant that the line went dead yesterday as I got through... why do you make this so difficult? PLEASE HELP 🙏

  • Andygclark Andy Clark (@Andygclark) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia would like to thank you for your customer service. Over 15 years of money from me. 50% price rise. I would like to leave please. No problem. All booked for you. Good bye. Wish I could afford to treat my customers like that.

  • AnnaForester87 Anna Forester (@AnnaForester87) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia network problem half way through Grease, haway man! 3rd day in a row aswell

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia Technical support to discuss slow speeds

  • alicen0rt0n alice✨ (@alicen0rt0n) reported from Washington, England

    THE WORST customer service @virginmedia, should be ashamed of treating loyal customers the way a member of staff has just spoken to my mam

  • ghtrainer Gareth Trainer (@ghtrainer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

  • 1slandmonkey Benjamin Spurling (@1slandmonkey) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia not impressed with your customer service this week. After days of attempted communication I finally spoke to someone about getting a new phone. They spoke terrible English, were unhelpful and have actually lost you my potential 24month contract.

  • chrissielouenid Chrissie (@chrissielouenid) reported from Newburn, England

    @virginmedia poor service strikes again !

  • cirrius_tech Graham Gold 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #StayHome #StaySafe (@cirrius_tech) reported

    @0Bfkx @danjconn @virginmedia Don’t doubt it - one time they wanted me to disconnect my HiveHub before they would help because “we don’t support 3rd routers”. It’s a bloody heating control unit. Nowadays I have their hub in modem mode and use my own WiFi gear - first thing they do is back to router mode.

  • BenMTobin Ben Tobin (@BenMTobin) reported

    @virginmedia I'm now being told that installation has been cancelled. If I hadn't called I would never have known that and would have expected it on the 25th. I have never, ever had a day like this with any company. Truly mind-boggling.

  • Amii_Bibi Ami_irah (@Amii_Bibi) reported

    @virginmedia can someone please get back to me, internet keeps cutting out and I have tried calling multiple times and no help! Can someone please get back to me ASAP! I would like some compensation!

  • CapnSlash CapnSlash (@CapnSlash) reported

    @virginmedia my internet keeps going on and off all the time and it's annoying and you want an extra £2.50 a month! For what? Horrible service, a website that doesn't work and false claims made about problems to sell more expensive packages! I find it disgusting to be honest!

  • victori15818498 vix (@victori15818498) reported

    When the country is relying on phones, Internet & TV for communication, work and schooling & @virginmedia let you down & don't even care! Disgraceful and our contract will be terminated!

  • panzerfaust81 panzerfaust81 (@panzerfaust81) reported

    @virginmedia You have to be kidding me - I just texted that number and it is a Bot service! What kind of useless service is this? How about a real human? How about someone doing something about my no access? How about calling me on the number I sent to the stupid BOT service

  • BenMTobin Ben Tobin (@BenMTobin) reported

    @virginmedia Regardless - one of your team has cancelled and not told me, it's only my ringing up that has uncovered that fact. Absolutely unacceptable and I'll be escalating the complaint to relevant bodies.

  • 980Mark Mark chapman (@980Mark) reported

    @virginmedia Will you ever answer the phone so i cancel your services

  • pauldee74 Paul Dwyer (@pauldee74) reported

    @virginmedia is there a complaint email address?

  • DitzyDoryUK Tia@WalkingWild (@DitzyDoryUK) reported

    @virginmedia You need to get you self sorted ASAP. We have had nothing but trouble with you for months now when my daughter needs the internet for school. 2 days we have had to spend away from home so she doesn't miss tests. Don't think we will be staying with you much longer!!!
