  • 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

  • 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 👍🏻

  • 3_monk Monkenstien. (@3_monk) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @virginmedia I get your bills, that is how I realised as a loyal customer I am paying £40 plus a month for Internet access only. Fortunately for me and not for you BT Openreach have been installing fibre to home allowing me greater negotiating power as tou have no respect for loyalty.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • brizzleboy pete jones (@brizzleboy) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia Sadly the phone never gets answered,we know if they did answer, someone in the retention centre might even help?

  • 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.

  • algro10 Al (@algro10) reported from Clevedon, England

    @stewartcarter6 Appears it’s a Virgin media issue , shambles

  • 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.

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

    @KGravil @virginmedia Service?

  • 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.

  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    Properly for the best part of a yr doesn't seem a problem to yourselves but your quite happy to take out monthly payment for a service we're paying for but you're not providing & seem to be in no hurry to provide it. Disgraceful service @virginmedia

  • 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

  • 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

  • lou_dare Louise Dare (@lou_dare) reported from Ringland, Wales

    @virginmedia we are having issues NP19 we’ve rebooted and checked wires.. been on and off now for few weeks. What’s going on please ??

  • AndyMWilcox Andy Wilcox (@AndyMWilcox) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia My broadband keeps disconnecting. This is my 4th time contacting and it gets worse each time you apparently fix something. Please can you fix it. I cannot work at home and I’ve just been booted out of your online chat to resolve the problem!

  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia is it normal practice when a call is made to you about problems with the tivo box (3rd time this year) that you're then on a call for over an hr at at the end of it promised an upgrade, go thro all the protocols only to be told actually you can't have that

  • lou_dare Louise Dare (@lou_dare) reported from Ringland, Wales

    @virginmedia any issues.. Np199gf ? No internet.. and yes I’ve checked everything 1st

  • williamjbrown william brown (@williamjbrown) reported from Bristol, England

    @BorisJohnson I can only get virginmedia (at an extortionate price) as it’s the only one who supply more than slow basic speeds - and this is the centre of bristol. Nothings improved for most of us - not only for this but everything else since you’ve wrecked our economy

  • MsWhippet1 Trudi Foster (@MsWhippet1) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.

  • J4Y_DEE Justin 🇺🇦 (@J4Y_DEE) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, the support is the basics, which of course I have done already before tweeting. It’s been happening for a while, I haven’t got time to chat now, like most people I just watch it on the normal HD channel. And want to watch Tv rather than sort a problem out.

  • Cl4r3 Clare (@Cl4r3) reported

    @virginmedia I want your formal complaints procedure please and I’ll do it in writing…..I’ve been on the phone for over 3 hours tonight to arrange an engineer…couldn’t be done, then to cancel which “couldn’t be done” got hung up on when I asked for a manager for the 10th time

  • cakefletcher Katy (@cakefletcher) reported

    @virginmedia The dongle doesn't work and hasn't been replaced despite multiple requests. We are owed £40 as a reimbursement for a WiFi extender we were advised to buy that made no difference.

    @virginmedia I tried to order on the live chat in the app and never got to talk to anyone just the b

  • cakefletcher Katy (@cakefletcher) reported

    @virginmedia Bc the dongle doesn't work, every time the service cuts out (frequently and for hours) we end up tethering off our mobile phones. We can't download or stream on the TV.

  • J4Y_DEE Justin 🇺🇦 (@J4Y_DEE) reported

    @virginmedia Is there any employees or staff that can check? That live in the DA area, although looking at Twitter a few people have had the issue. It’s ONLY happening on BT sport ultimate.

  • Cl4r3 Clare (@Cl4r3) reported

    @virginmedia Still on it. 3 hours and 1 minute. Asked to cancel at 7:55, still not done. Refusing to let me speak to a manager. I’ve set up a new Brian’s and with sky whilst being on hold and cancelled my direct debit…..
