    @virginmedia Tried ringing at the weekend and kept being sent to the website. Your customer service is as much use as a chocolate fire guard

    virgin media must be down again because she hasn’t replied to my message in 63 hours.

  • apmilnes
    Paul Milnes (@apmilnes) reported from Armthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Three days to answer a text is some kind of busy! Do you think maybe you’re busy because people can’t get their issues sorted & need to keep ringing back over & over again?

  • apmilnes
    Paul Milnes (@apmilnes) reported from Armthorpe, England

    @samuk29 @virginmedia It’s unbelievable how bad the customer service is, I’m actually happy with the product but the customer service for sorting my problem out is shocking!

    Leigh Herrick (@Fatpepe1) reported from Bottesford, England

    @virginmedia moved house, moved my subscription, engineer came yesterday and still no service. Rang customer services, on hold for 59 minutes and then cut off. Amazing service 👍🏼👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia Tamzin, have you asked the school if there is any support available with WiFi? I know my college used done funds to provide dongles with access. Worth asking. A teacher.

  • enquiriesdesk
    Lol B (@enquiriesdesk) reported

    @Benleo Virgin Media are honestly useless. Hours and hours wasted on the phone over the years, nothing ever fixed. Staff seem completely incompetent. At one point I was so stressed I thought I was having a heart attack. Shocking service.

  • Anumcaras
    Anumcara (@Anumcaras) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Similar happened to me and again the call centre pushing am unnecessary sale and left me with no internet for weeks. Falsely claiming I needed new equipment but didn’t book an engineer It’s not the same company these days. Issues started September and this Friday engineer will finally arrive. I had to go back to sky in the meantime and move the virgin account to an other address because they would not cancel and kept ending calls. I would not recommend them. Also they have had issues nationwide with internet past two weeks impossible to work from home or study. Will they reimburse those customers?

    @mark_wootten try virgin media there just as bad

  • RetroGamer90
    RetroGamerX (@RetroGamer90) reported

    @Stephencheatley @virginmedia We had the full VM package quite a few years back but always had issues with their tv service. We ended up going with Sky and havent had any problems since then. We kept the broadband with Virgin because we get 1GB for £38 month with Netflix included. Shop around mate 👍

    @Benleo @Iwontcalmdown @virginmedia They really are the worst company got rid of them finally but they still kept taking money.

  • dshensmith
    Daniel ShenSmith (BlackBeltBarrister) (@dshensmith) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I feel your pain. I had countless difficulties with both Virgin for consumers and Virgin for business. Disconnections and interruptions for weeks due to works they never told me about. They need to do better

  • chris327759
    chris8854.bskysocial (@chris327759) reported

    @virginmedia No I’m aware of the power outage so all I want to do is watch tv which is fine. There’s no internet yet, it’s the message constantly flashing up on the screen that’s annoying. Once u have seen it once, u shouldn’t need to see it again, but every 10 seconds it’s there

  • shadeyshaw
    Shady Shaw (@shadeyshaw) reported

    @Benleo I think these big comp that operate in the uk should be banned from using overseas call centres,I left virgin because their customer service was atrocious joined youfibre only to find out they have been bought out by virgin media and now I’m sure they use the same call centres.

  • Manavvv31
    Manavmeet Singh (@Manavvv31) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Nothing unites Britain quite like a shared telecom customer service horror story. The combination of endless transfers contradictory information and problems somehow getting worse after every call genuinely feels like a national experience at this point 😭 @Benleo

  • ConorSwifty
    Conor Swifty (@ConorSwifty) reported

    @virginmedia hello Virgin Media had a dodgy phone call from +442045148789 saying it's Virgin/O2 trying to end contracts early for upgrading & wanted details while the lady spoke poor English & kept saying eh 24/7.
