  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Your team still do not answer the phone. Constantly on hold and then they hung up on my partner yesterday when she got through. The box will be left outside the address for you to collect because we have been trying to cancel for a week now and it is a joke. #poorcustomerservice

  • peteroliver18 Peter Oliver (@peteroliver18) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia My broadband has gone into a weird stopped working properly and I'm at my dad's house 12 Wardenlaw NE10 8NE it keeps going on and off and is so slow and it is barely usable! Is anyone else having the same problem with Virgin?

  • simplyajblog Abbie✨ (@simplyajblog) reported from Dunston, England

    @katiexmiddleton @virginmedia VM is big in my area for internet but the last house I was in could only have TalkTalk. When I moved, I just transferred my address over instead of moving across to VM. The trouble you’ve, and everybody else it seems, had makes me glad I did! I’ve not had an issue with TT once!

  • donnawatson76 Donna watson (@donnawatson76) reported from Dunston, England

    @virginmedia I am not in receipt of universal credit and back in nov i thought we could save some money by downgrading now I would like everything out, and will go with another provider. After the service i have received from yourselves nobody else can do as bad a job

  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia any chance you can reply since your customer service department have just hung up after waiting an hour to get through. So sick of your terrible customer service hence why i want to leave. #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice #cancellation

  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Longbenton, England

    @virginmedia @panzerfaust81 Any chance we can cancel as your customer service team hang up after waiting an hour on hold? Sick of your dreadful service. Please contact me as this is a joke. Need to leave due to moving home and you make it even harder @Ofcom

  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia It has been over a week trying to contact you and it’s impossible. The contract needs to end on 04/03/21. Your service makes things 10x harder than any other provider.

  • 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 🙏

  • CompaneroDave David (@CompaneroDave) reported from Wallsend, England

    Have been forced upstairs to watch the match in the PS4. WiFi is usually crap up here. But, no, it's working perfectly so I'm forced to watch #NUFC. Cheers @virginmedia, why can't you do this when I'm trying to work?!

  • donnawatson76 Donna watson (@donnawatson76) reported from Dunston, England

    What to do when you have been trying to contact @virginmedia since november 2 complaints raised with disgusting customer service, eventually someone answers the phone only to cut me off 😡😡😡

  • donnawatson76 Donna watson (@donnawatson76) reported from Dunston, England

    @virginmedia This is just a screen shot!!! Showing the numbers i called and the link i followed, I dont have a copy as it was an online form i completed , if you are unable to help please stop wasting my precious time with my family

  • 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.

  • L17aamLiam Liam (@L17aamLiam) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia total disgrace. Very poor service.

  • BrayKujo Jotavolo (@BrayKujo) reported

    @virginmedia fix your dogged *** Internet bozo's

  • mis_tips Tracy Payne (@mis_tips) reported

    @virginmedia I find it disgusting as a loyal customer you expect me to pay to upgrade especially when your online service is dreadful. So many competitors out there I'm ready to switch

  • AarronBlack Aarron black (@AarronBlack) reported

    Anyone else's Virgin Media down yet again? ******* piss take now

  • Dalli_7_Dalli MUFC_7_MUFC (@Dalli_7_Dalli) reported

    @virginmedia guess what, my internet is down again like every morning. Called yesterday and no engineer can be scheduled because the system says it’s a short term problem that fixes itself in 7 days, I explain I’ve had the problem 1 month, so surely there’s been enough 7 days?

  • Nadeem74159629 Nadeem (@Nadeem74159629) reported

    @SlickHammyJR @virginmedia great absolutely joke of a service engineer leaves me with a faulty hub jokers

  • ThatArabWitch hex girl 🧛🏼‍♀️ (@ThatArabWitch) reported

    At 1:21 every single night without fail my @virginmedia internet just cuts out and does for a few minutes to an hour. What is the deal with that?

  • wkeenan Wayne 💙 (@wkeenan) reported

    @virginmedia voicemail is down for me, for a while. Time I left you then

  • Liambowers666 Liam B (@Liambowers666) reported

    @virginmedia It’s a joke, they keep saying no fault in the area when there clearly is. There’s a guy in the van powering the cabinet in the day. Surely an electrical fault doesn’t take this long to fix?!

  • Anjan04165370 Anjan (@Anjan04165370) reported

    @virginmedia Been having intermittent broadband for 4 months now. Had engineer come 'fix' few times. Even change to a new hub. Still same issue. Have lost out on making money as i do trading. Disappointed 😞 is an understatement
