  • Andreaeday Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia Just also discovered that even though I was told I wouldnt pay for gadget rescue & then I was charged in error. Called last weekend to sort and was told it was sorted, I’ve just been credited £5 rather than the £20 paid for initial set up. I am SO tired of this. Please fix it.

  • adam_bocca Adam Bocca (@adam_bocca) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @Virgin_Victoria @virginmedia 1hr and 10mins later after speaking with CS they have confirmed that they cannot help me with my matter and a ticket has been raised which VM will be in touch with me by SMS within 5 working days. CS loved talking too me when I signed up a month ago. #virginmedia

  • shent Matt (@shent) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia hey guys lost complete internet service in ST3 area, router states: Provisioning state: Offline and internet (Access Denied) 😔

  • Tiny_Tog Tiny Tog (@Tiny_Tog) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Still no tv or broadband. Rang again 24mins to answer to be told id be without service til Tuesday/Wednesday, when a new hub could be delivered #virginmedia #nothappy #lookingfornewprovider

  • AleeOwnzz Alee (@AleeOwnzz) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @toastwiz @virginmedia Gotta be a pretty big issue to take 10 days Jesus

  • Tiny_Tog Tiny Tog (@Tiny_Tog) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I’m glad it sorted itself out as the customer service woman said id need a new hub which she said she’d order and would arrive Tuesday (6/8/19). Which it hasn’t. I’m glad I didn’t need it #virginmedia

  • iwanevans Iwan Evans (@iwanevans) reported from Congleton, England

    @virginmedia Almost like you didn't read my original message... Your stock answer STILL doesn't ring true, just repeating the phrase I quoted in my original message to me again doesn't help one little bit

  • shent Matt (@shent) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia how is the admin panel so slow on the hub 3.0, it’s actually terrible and has been since release 😒 I can’t even access my DHCP settings

  • Tiny_Tog Tiny Tog (@Tiny_Tog) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Great customer services at @virginmedia this morning.Waited 28mins for phone to be answered then to be given a phone number that says there’s no issues. F1 starts in less than an hour #lookingfornewprovider

  • LesChaplin Les Chaplin (@LesChaplin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @McGiff @virginmedia I am having exactly the same problem over roaming charges for a country I’ve not been anywhere near a, appalling service and been told tough pay or they take me to court! At my wits end!

  • shent Matt (@shent) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately not, I even gave two phone numbers and an email, just want to know if there is an issue local to me or if it’s a network issue, I can deal with downtime but drop outs and high latency really are frustrating, can’t really have another half a day off work...

  • LesChaplin Les Chaplin (@LesChaplin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I am not stupid I get that! However, the text I received said welcome to Greece you can use your phone exactly the same as if in the uk so I had absolutely no reason to switch roaming off when I never left the resort. I have kept the texts which state exactly that

  • andyvic7 Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia just had the misfortune to speak to the rudest person ever whilst trying to sort out my abysmal connection speed when she put the phone down on me after a 20 minute wait!!

  • neilevo18781967 Neil evans EVO (@neilevo18781967) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia It was with regards to my services.. When I phoned about it the lack of professionalism was horrendous.. When I mentioned the lack of professionalism I was basically told what is your problem. Awful really

  • Andreaeday Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia 2/2 when modem mode was suggest I was just told it “turns off WiFi” - no help on how to fix. VPN is common from domestic WiFi - you should be clear and transparent to customers that you don’t support rather than charging for gadget rescue for something that can’t be fixed.

  • adam_bocca Adam Bocca (@adam_bocca) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I signed up and got my install on Saturday the 2nd. I was trying to login to my account via the App and through a webpage with me not hearing anything regarding my first billing process And it's not letting me do so I just get an error message saying that my user does not exist.

  • Andreaeday Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia <sigh> suppose I really shouldn’t have thought that you would provide a good customer service experience based on my experience of my recent dealings. Sad; Virgin Media used to be pretty awesome. Disappointed.

  • andyvic7 Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I’m sick of resetting that hub it’s supposed to be 100mb fibre I had less trouble with my dial up! Do you supply boosters as you can take it out before I spend money to make up for your awful service

  • PeachyBeechy cara (@PeachyBeechy) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia shocked and appalled by the rude and aggressive manner of one of your agents just now during an unsolicited sales call.

  • mymodlifecrisis sean cosgrove (@mymodlifecrisis) reported from Mow Cop, England

    @soundoftheatom @dec1878 Don’t go to @virginmedia My 78 dads doesn’t work or his broadband. He is deaf and can’t talk to them on the phone but they won’t send an engineer out. Happy to take his money though. They’ll sit up when I cancel it tomorrow

    @virginmedia Spent most of the afternoon waiting to speak to you about the 25% increase on my bill only to have the phone put down on me as soon as I get through.

  • BarovianPeasant Nick (@BarovianPeasant) reported

    @TruthTeller1909 @pryorandy @virginmedia I wish student houses didn't all use VM to be honest, it's seriously awful

  • iwdWalk Walk With Women (@iwdWalk) reported

    @virginmedia Pls note how upsetting it is for #disabled people to constantly fight for the most basic rights And how humiliating it is to never be taken seriously. @virginmedia have made a very proud & intelligent woman feel helpless & further disabled.

  • michellempurse Michelle Purse (@michellempurse) reported

    @amypackham15 @virginmedia @SkyUK It’s pretty shocking. Three days ago I actually got a customer service agent to agree their contract amd technwas woefully out of date but couldn’t do anything and no one available to transfer me to.

  • Heedley94 Chris Hedley (@Heedley94) reported

    @virginmedia 64 down and 11 up

    Imagine if @virginmedia actually had customer support

    Thank you @virginmedia after 4 months of back and fourth we have finally fixed the issue with my Hub 3 thanks to your Super Intelligent WIFI pods Very kind ******* the phone was committed to solving the issue goes to show there is a human on the other end and not a robot! 🥰

  • PollyJames Polly James (@PollyJames) reported

    @annamazz @virginmedia They are awful! Had to leave in the end! Good luck getting it sorted! All they wanna do is chat on bloody we chat which is shite

  • BenFrostMusic Ben Morales Frost (@BenFrostMusic) reported

    @virginmedia UPDATE: I'm now talking with the SIXTH customer service rep on Whatsapp, and they've asked all the same questions *again*. I tried calling you the other day but you there was a 4 hour queue. I have asked over TEN times to end my contract and it has not happened.

  • RayTheJedi Metal Gear Ray (@RayTheJedi) reported

    @Atikur_ @virginmedia @Rossboddingtons Not tried it yet. What a solution though, “just use your phone buddy”
