    @virginmedia the level of customer service is appalling been with you only 1 day and wished I had stayed with O2

  • activist84
    gerisays (@activist84) reported from Beeston, England

    When you’re on the phone to @virginmedia to sort a broadband issue get placed on “hold” while the customer advisor “speaks to a colleague” to be informed the offices are now closed! Absolutely appalling customer service!!! And still haven’t sorted the issue 🙄🙄🙄🙄

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia I’m still having issues with my router and wifi. Only so many times I can switch off and on again.

  • lee0510
    Lee Smith (@lee0510) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia I cannot contact you by phone, your site will not allow me to sign in as my email is not available, clearly it wasn’t deleted from previous account so I can not see internet status or report faults. My Wi-Fi is intermittent, not working as I type reply.

    @virginmedia @taylur41 Does @LutzSchueler know how bad your customer service is

  • Jdd535
    John D (@Jdd535) reported from Stapleford, England

    Any chance virgin media can sort their network out.. paying for over 300mbps n only getting 46mbps!! #VirginMediaoutage #virginmediauk #virginmedia

  • PantherAS90
    andrew💫 (@PantherAS90) reported from Clifton, England

    @virginmedia @rosentweets I’ve also been trying to change my package and the links are dead. Tried to ring to no avail! Awful service

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    Just put another complaint into Virgin Media about the fact that my original complaint from the 22/04/21 has not been dealt with and no details of when it will be if ever. I complained about having to make over 13 phone calls all lasting at least 20 minutes and 2 engineer visits

  • iamj_armstrong
    James Armstrong (@iamj_armstrong) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia are there any outages in the NG9 area or has my broadband broken for the second time this month?

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia The other issue your engineer was in yesterday surely he would have checked these things out ? Personally i dont think he was very experienced or didnt know how to do his job properly.

  • NikkiPearman
    Nikki Pearman 💙 (@NikkiPearman) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia That’s my problem. I can’t get to speak to a person and your automated system doesn’t allow me to discuss the issue properly.

  • Jdd535
    John D (@Jdd535) reported from Stapleford, England

    Virgin gone down again... Great wen it works... but wen it goes its bad.. n wots worse is their customer service.. or rather lack of it!! Far worse than SKY.. but swap 2 moz.. terrible!!! #sky #virginmedia

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia I’ve re-run the tests and still recommending I get a booster but still no idea how I go about ordering one. Can someone help rather than me going around in circles again please?

  • iamthemummy
    julie marlow (@iamthemummy) reported from Ibstock, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

  • SmileyJMH
    Joanna Hayes (@SmileyJMH) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia just had call from 'Harry' in London, your technical department. Apparently I'm having issues with broadband speed... His employer ID was 194, apparently? He was shouty, in very loud place, couldn't tell me who I was. Please look into number 01323897224. Infuriating.

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia No, it’s very random. I was expecting an improvement when I upgraded speeds but it never did.

  • ACforReformUK
    AndyC (@ACforReformUK) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia This "quality" service is endemic in the UK these days, there's no accountability, if you got £50 for every aborted attempt, you can bet they'd get it done 1st time every time. OFCOM should punish these firms with huge fines and bring in accountability, otherwise this will just go on.

  • DJCDale

    @virginmedia I cannot be the only person that cannot log on via the app or online is there a problem ?

  • crm_uk
    C Morris (@crm_uk) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Yep 💯 percent. Worst is when the Indian call centre says password is wrong because they don't understand and you're having to break up your English for them 🙈

  • CanazUK
    Canaz-UK (@CanazUK) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Virgin Active gym were the worst gym I've ever dealt with. Avoid!

  • timamor

    @Benleo @virginmedia They may be crap, but not as crap as @GBNEWS.

  • Rob_Green1
    Rob Green (@Rob_Green1) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Been there. Had similar service. Absolutely atrocious.

  • CJD39
    Catriona **** (@CJD39) reported

    @virginmedia quite possibly the worst customer service EVER. I have been a loyal customer for years! Absolutely disgraceful

  • katesonly
    We need Restore Britain (@katesonly) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Avoid like the plague, if you move house before your contract is up & they don’t supply their service in your new area, they expect you to keep paying for receiving nothing, often 18 - 24 month contracts & they don’t make this clear. Sketchy service with sketchy coverage

    @Benleo @Christi61144576 @virginmedia What a shame you had such a bad experience. I’ve always had excellent service from them. And that’s from whenever they brought cable to my street 15 - 20 years ago.

    @Benleo @CallmeRight1 @virginmedia I had heard they have a dreadful reputation for customer service or lack of it…..
