  • mrmjprice Martin Price (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I have been but they couldn’t get a good-enough price and directed me to the self-service page but I get “customer-exclusion” at the end of the URL which tells me to use chat.

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • redron1975 Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia guess what ********* your system is down again. Useless pricks.

  • kolapoagunbiade TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Birmingham, England

    The day ends with a Y 🤝 Virgin media not working again

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia And this is why, I'll be reporting you to trading standards for fraudulent misselling/misrepresentation and then abdicating ALL responsibility/accountability to resolve. There's no security/DPA issues in you giving me a direct dial number via DM. You just don't want to resolve.

  • Andyfoodie Andrew Markou (@Andyfoodie) reported from Tamworth District, England

    Hi @virginmedia I live in the B77 4LD area and we use you as our Broadband providers. Has the network gone down and if so approximately when will it get fixed and be back up and running?

  • redron1975 Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Right then fools. How many times do I need to contact you to tell you how bad our internet is? I am so fed up with this service and wouldn't recommend you to my worst enemy. I cant wait to get service from someone reliable. Clowns

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done that. My connection drops out for a minute or so every 30-60 mins. Hard to replicate. My account has notes regarding the reason why the credit was given last time. Ideally I don’t want to wait so long for the same issue to be fixed.

  • Phil_Bonna Bonna (@Phil_Bonna) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • AntonyHowlett Antony Howlett (@AntonyHowlett) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ChristineAllado @virginmedia I keep having this problem every week and nothing ever gets done and all you get back is we can't find a fault

  • jenkin99 jen (@jenkin99) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

  • robchippyman Rob Chipman (@robchippyman) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

  • LynneMasters LynneMUFC#22#44 (@LynneMasters) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why is the Sky Sports red button not working

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. Well done 👏🏻

    @channell_lisa @virginmedia It’s dreadful. Wishing we had never changed. Can’t believe there is such a delay on booster. Other companies are able to offer their complete services so why not @virginmedia. 😡😡

  • SadafYusufzai sadaf yusufzai (@SadafYusufzai) reported

    @virginmedia You guys are useless! Disgusting service

  • Ketleywho Kevin Cairney (@Ketleywho) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia Is there any upload speed issues going on as I've been experiencing this for a while now. I even told the VMedia person who gave me a new contract but said just keep an eye on it. Tonight was only 1.5 and should be well over 30. KA12 area disappointing

  • M_Thomas77 Mickfish (@M_Thomas77) reported

    @virginmedia arranged for someone to collect my broadband box from old home. Didn't show up. Ordered the return package kit not once, not twice, but three times - didn't show up. £40 late return charge because of your incompetence. And now broadband is down in my new home 1/2

  • Ahveed87 AVH (@Ahveed87) reported

    @virginmedia network is down again. Why ?

  • nellygaz gary nelson* (@nellygaz) reported from Hamilton, Scotland

    @virginmedia buzzing coming from the box at the wall thought it was coming from TV but was getting louder and was at the wall were cables come in. Anyone else had this problem? Buzzing stopped when turned off at the mains.

  • JusteneEwing Justene Ewing (@JusteneEwing) reported from Mid Calder, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thank you for the response. I did as you asked at 7:04pm this evening engaged with Terri the Triage Bot who has kept me on hold waiting to speak to someone for 3 hours 20 minutes. Just when I thought @virginmedia might try to repair this customer onboarding failure #poorservice
