  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @Ofcom how the hell can @virginmedia seriously refuse to allow customers to raise a complaint??? This is bloody awful!!!!!!! Two calls and both calls refuse to allow me to raise a formal complaint!!! Both call takers clearly in a different country and have issues understanding

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia Virgin Media have gone down massively! The amount they charge doesn't represent the customer experience at all!

  • SharonJukes SBJ💙 (@SharonJukes) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Two days have now passed and they have heard nothing. They have no phone or internet and Dad is 80. Please can someone contact me and I will provide further details by DM. This is poor service for what you class as a vulnerable age group. I have tried to call you #virginmedia

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It is awful! Virgin are very expensive compared to many other TV providers yet the customer service is very poor and does NOT suite the price. I'm sick of arguing with them to get the simplest of issues resolved

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Sorry doesn't fix the problem

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Why cant someone just ring me so I can actually explain what the problem is. When I try and light in it does not recognize my mothers maiden name and I'm sure I have got that right so then I cant get any further

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to sort out the issue off my password not working and the internet dropping out for over a week. I am getting passed around in circles. Please can you tell me how much notice I need give to leave and also give me an email for complaints please

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It's awful! I'm sick of calling customer services and getting through to someone who cannot understand basic English language and goes on talking about something else. Then try to speak to three different advisers to raise a simple issue/complaint and they refuse!

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Again have you read anything iv said????? THREE CALLS to your customer services and all connected to off shore people who have either not got a clue what a complaint is or refused to log one for me! Instead of repeating yourself sort it out! @Ofcom #poorcustomerservice

  • robbiedyson Rob (@robbiedyson) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia is there any outage with the Staffordshire area ST5

  • sophiebridgett Sophie Bridgett (@sophiebridgett) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Still terrible. I've followed the instructions once signed in online however consistently dipping. :(

  • paramattharri84 Matt Harrison (@paramattharri84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @KezMH @virginmedia The hardest part of the problem is actually gettong to speak to someone

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia hi can someone please message me?? I need help with my bill! You've been overcharging me every month for the last 12 months!!!

  • paramattharri84 Matt Harrison (@paramattharri84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia No! I'm not a customer its @KezMH who you need to apologise to. Seemingly your lack of ability to even read this thread properly emphasises your lack of ability to provide acceptable customer service

  • sophiebridgett Sophie Bridgett (@sophiebridgett) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia terrible internet this past 2 weeks!! Consistenly dropping 😫😫

  • gingerjames1990 James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Sorry are you not reading what I am saying? Three calls in the past 90 minutes and still they either don't understand what I'm saying or refuse to take a complaint!

  • beth_emma_ Beth Emma (@beth_emma_) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia my internet is down, again 🙃 I'm in ST4

  • jamesjohara James O'Hara (@jamesjohara) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia do any of your technical support staff have the first clue what they’re on about?

  • whipblue Julie Leech (@whipblue) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Falkunn Falk (@Falkunn) reported

    @virginmedia No can do. We've already been down this road before, the account isn't in my name. Sure we could do that but this has been the same thing over and over again. The technicians never help either. We need a long term solution because it's interfering with income.

  • MsMelissaMayne melissa mayne (@MsMelissaMayne) reported

    @virginmedia They say an outrage problem but a)this has lasted 2 weeks in our area b)a friend on the next road doesn’t have this issue and c)our problem is with our boxes not the area problem

  • KanibalThorne Kan Thorne (@KanibalThorne) reported

    @virginmedia That BQM is never going to be the full story though because even with 0.5MB/s upload a latency monitor will tell you that everything is OK. Definitely time to detail a forum post if that's the only means of support.

  • EmmaFly10423352 Emma Flynn (@EmmaFly10423352) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I got a reply on Facebook messenger but nothing after that and I can't get through to customer care

  • DarlingtonKarl Karl Darlington (@DarlingtonKarl) reported

    Moving house on Friday and want to move my @virginmedia services. The advisor told me that they don't supply to my new address and they can't transfer my services. He then told me that I need to pay £150 early cancellation fee to cancel! Absolutely disgusted! Sort it out Virgin!

  • Bugler64 John Furse (@Bugler64) reported

    @BBCNews @virginmedia Does not include customer service

  • keif Keif (@keif) reported

    @virginmedia The wizard suggested I reboot my router, which I’ve done. Still happening in your network.

  • nefariouuus kasie ❄️ (@nefariouuus) reported

    @virginmedia I already have done loads if them on my wired PC and it says as I stated above abour crappy download and upload it’s only going up or dowm from 30-45 download at best and I had 100 down and was told on the email about the HUB 5 it would triple my speeds and yet its down down?

  • jaccantt Jono Jones (@jaccantt) reported

    @virginmedia oh my lord I’m struggling with your service as a new customer. I can’t get internet in 3 rooms in our house, your app detects this but then sends me to a place that says there are no boosters left.. chat on your app doesn’t work. Speed right next to the router slow

  • RuthMcF1 Ruth McFarlane (@RuthMcF1) reported

    @virginmedia No phone call and still no emails! What do I have to do to get you to fix this or do I just give up?
