  • bethkorf Beth Ryan (@bethkorf) reported from Kingswood, England

    Wow @virginmedia you've out done yourself, 45 mins and counting to cancel sports channels for mum after dad passing away all with an agent #shockingservice

  • garethbalmer Gareth Balmer (@garethbalmer) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia All good now - there were some power issues in another part of Gloucester that seemed to be causing the V6 box at our house and a few friends to restart. Very odd

  • chrisandobe Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia I been with virgin for years and last month was put on the new virgin O2 SIM deal. I'm already looking forward to when I can cancel the O2 SIM only part. Couldn't get any help with O2 but luckily the person at virgin helped me.

  • RajnishRazdan Rajnish Razdan (@RajnishRazdan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia it’s amazing isn’t it - you never pick up calls or cut me off so I go to your site to change my package as you’re charging me for things I don’t have and amazingly your live chat button doesn’t work either.

  • gman7634 graham monks (@gman7634) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia It's fixed now and it was a problem in the box down the road, almost 24hrs to fix it is a bit of a joke thou 🙄🙄

  • gillih Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    @virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.

  • BRFCSamuel Sam 🏴‍☠️ (@BRFCSamuel) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia This contact was via the phone. He did give a reason, the reason being he didn’t know what the problem was. So told us to sit here and wait with no Wi-Fi and hope it sorts itself out.

  • emmainglasgow emmainbristol (@emmainglasgow) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia what's the deal, my box hasn't worked for 2 days??? This is the 3rd technical problem lasting more than 2 days that I've had this year. This is ridiculous now

  • chrisandobe Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia If it's better customer service then that would be better than having to be with O2

  • bethkorf Beth Ryan (@bethkorf) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Its done now but fairly sure it shouldn't take your agents 45 mins to cancel sky and bt sports and change the TV package to the basic. Maybe more training or better systems are needed. Just saying Sky took about 3 minutes to cancel BT sports for me a year or so ago #competitors

  • Bristolvor Ivor the Vorlord (@Bristolvor) reported from Bristol, England

    @KGravil @virginmedia Service?

  • chloehester Chloe (@chloehester) reported from Bristol, England

    Why does @virginmedia online chat never work?! Its a nightmare trying to get through on the phone 😭 I just need to change my package ffs.

  • xChuChux911 Hi, call me Chu x (@xChuChux911) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I never gave out any personal information as I knew it was a scam cus I'm with Sky. The number was 02045099664 but it was spoofed. Lady had an Indian accent and said technicians in my area had fould a fault which was affecting my computer.

  • tuco_tuco WE ARE TUCO (@tuco_tuco) reported from Bristol, England

    Wow @virginmedia really can't sort their stuff out.......HELP its a joke

  • gillih Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Bristol, England

    Hi @virginmedia I want to cancel my account. Still waiting to speak to someone after > 1 hour. Advice please?

  • BRFCSamuel Sam 🏴‍☠️ (@BRFCSamuel) reported from Kingswood, England

    .@virginmedia telling us to sit and wait for 24 hours without internet just incase our Wi-Fi starts working again before they’ll actually do anything, great customer service… not 👍🏻

  • chrisandobe Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia That's a shame. Virgin SIM card was so much better and better customer service. I will probably change to a different phone network as soon as I can

  • j_bettany Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, England

    So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

  • RajnishRazdan Rajnish Razdan (@RajnishRazdan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia If you’ve got something positive to contribute DM me, like getting someone to call me. Why would I remember the details of 2 hours that I will never get back

  • gman7634 graham monks (@gman7634) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia you said you know what the problem is but no one is working at the box!!!! Part 2

    @virginmedia Re my previous messages from yesterday, it still isn't working. Check online confirms there are still issues affecting service. What is happening?

  • GarfieldLeChat GarfieldLeChat (@GarfieldLeChat) reported

    @virginmedia I get that. The internet going down outside of the home without warning been off all weekend so I’m well aware of the issue. Why even say we’ll allow you to book an engineer after 24 hours if that isn’t the case? Funny how I can now book one for Monday.

  • HiringinEMEA Heather Brady (@HiringinEMEA) reported

    @virginmedia Will it therefore be this one which is circulating the forums? Or are you going to change this one too to make it impossible to cancel? Virgin Media, Sunderland, SR43 4AA

    @virginmedia Looks like there are issues in WF1 which might affect you. So yeah. Really bad
