  • leedumble Lee (@leedumble) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia so you think it’s acceptable to too my bill up by£29 a month after being with yourself for 17 years . After speaking to a so called customer service advisor I have to wait 28 days for a response 😡😡😡 new customers getting better deals

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia right - how on earth do you actually speak to someone in your team? If I have issues with my broadband, it’s not exactly practical to advise me to head to your website! Any options on how to speak to someone?

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia You can, I assume this is potentially an agency who is managing their social media accounts. So you can kindly pass these on to a manager from the complaints team please. This is beyond poor customer service!

  • ILSdiva Sarah Hills (@ILSdiva) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia my internet is inexplicably not working. Any issues in Penarth, Wales?

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia pls can you help? Website and app help doesn't address the technical issues and don't provide way to contact you. Phoned 150, automated system said it would update & restart TV. Nothing happened. Can't watch recorded programmes since 12th Oct. Frustrating!

  • H7WEJ Jason Howe (@H7WEJ) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    Let's hope @virginmedia broadband service is better than their pavement relaying skills. Disruption and mess all over Caerphilly.

  • mapson_nick Nick Mapson (@mapson_nick) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia I have spent hours on the phone the last 5 days trying to get some idea if my home move had been sorted! Please can someone DM me to sort this out. Fed up of being let down constantly 😡

  • emmalouise_ions Emma Ions (@emmalouise_ions) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Nett13y @virginmedia It’s always internet we’ve had a issue with TV has been fine. Shocking service.

  • TheRealNigsy Nigsy (@TheRealNigsy) reported from Newport, Wales

    Anybody else lost there #VirginMedia internet services, getting stupid now as I'm loosing money not being able to work... @virginmedia

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Hello, raised a complaint yesterday at 11:00am, told I’d get a call back within 24 hours - no call, so what’s the next exhausting step?

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @adamburgessevan @virginmedia They are absolutely TERRIBLE at customer service

  • TheRealNigsy Nigsy (@TheRealNigsy) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Had issues this morning, but seem ok now.

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Last pt... a helpful member of the community just advised me to text a random mobile number for help. May be innocent but I have no idea if that is a @virginmedia number ... feels a little suspicious / could be a scam? Hope the moderators track these types of things too.

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Okay I'll keep paying you for something that doesn't work and wait for another customer to advise how to resolve the issue... or if I'm really lucky a moderator might get in touch... 👌 Is there an SLA?

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Only from customers hypothesising what the issue is... appreciate the help but not going to resolve anything.

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Anyone looking for truly appalling customer service? With terrible communications? Try one of the UK’s leading comms company @virginmedia - great example of how to truly undervalue customers with poor and dismissive service #poor #CustomerExperience #CustomerService

  • catrin_davies1 catrin davies (@catrin_davies1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Contract with @virginmedia is expiring up £20 p/m. Great Black Friday deal for new customers. Won’t match it. Told if sign up in my name as new customer (currently in partner’s name) they’ll offer it-great but still want £35 one off fee for equipment -we have equipment here 🙈

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia is there anybody in your customer services department today?

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia @virginmedia come on guys... I've done what you asked. Still no response. Trying to resolve this issue since 12th Oct.

  • emmalouise_ions Emma Ions (@emmalouise_ions) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Nett13y @virginmedia Hi. No never spoke to anyone. Gone to BT.

    Your internet lately has just been poor @virginmedia please sort it out!!!

  • spuddy1878 Neil (@spuddy1878) reported

    @1980sepo @virginmedia The service is really good, they're just a nightmare trying to sort any issues

  • Griffin20638245 Griffinp (@Griffin20638245) reported

    @Nesphalim @Jackoswhorld @virginmedia Hi Kimberley, I’m a virgin media customer and literally getting about 50 emails a day now coming to the inbox saying ‘expiring’ etc. I put them all in the junk yet the new emails still make their way to my inbox? Do u know why now? Thx for any help

  • davyclarke davyclarke (@davyclarke) reported

    The service level and customer service from @virginmedia is really, really very poor. Never get any communication back from any complaints that I have made. You've become very self-assured with your fastest broadband mantle. Shouldn't affect good customer service.

  • shonadon shona donaldson (@shonadon) reported

    @virginmedia So problem eventually sorted. A new router was never ordered and not available unless you’re a new customer so I upgraded which obviously costs more and I got the Hub4 within 2 days and enjoying Virgins new Gig1 fibre connection now.

  • Bellshilltim Bellshill Tim (@Bellshilltim) reported

    @Alanmcl76 @virginmedia I honestly need to factory reset at least once a week, and I'm looking a WiFi mesh options as the hub4 is shockingly bad

  • DisastersR6 DisastersHappen (@DisastersR6) reported

    @LawR6S Virgin Media is the fastest you will probably be able to get, however for me in my area it will go down at least once a day and speeds are inconsistent. Also the router they give is a pile of **** along with their customer support.

  • lunar0003 Grumpy auld wumin (@lunar0003) reported

    Seems virgin media is using subliminal advertising on their tv network & the recent price hikes have been savage....with more to follow!

  • danielrcadams Daniel (@danielrcadams) reported

    @virginmedia No. I waited an hour to get through the first time. Why should I keep having to wait an hour each time I call? I can’t be bothered and don’t have the time to spend that long on hold. Rubbish customer service and every Saturday your on demand service doesn’t work.

  • Llanitasoul Chloe James (@Llanitasoul) reported

    The ol' @virginmedia broadband down again! Saying not going to be fixed till 4pm tomorrow? Also haven't had the upgraded speeds and box we are waiting for.....
