    @virginmedia I’ve just asked for all calls relating to my complaint over the past two years. You said no. So now I do a complaint against you with ico. I believe you will get a fine. Sorry.

  • phanleyphotos Paul Hanley Photos (@phanleyphotos) reported from Prescot, England

    Moved from @virginmedia to @SkyUK but phone number hasn’t moved. @virginmedia say it’s possible to still port it and the response from @SkyUK - we don’t know how to do that, hang up and try to speak to someone else after 3 hours on the phone 🤬🤬🤬

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia This is the 6th “complex” issue that’s happened during weekends this year! and countless other days ..... and that’s why I called yesterday to cancel, your service is obviously not fit for purpose and you have the cheek to put the price up too

  • cudda69 Denis Cudahy (@cudda69) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia absolute joke cancelled my contract beginning August because of issues ever since its been installed, looked at at my bill I'm still being charged, all equipment in a box so it's not used you have signed me up again for 12 month WTF #jokers

  • _DebDeb_ Deb Deb (@_DebDeb_) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia hi I recently signed up but want to cancel

  • crhudson10 Carolyn Hudson (@crhudson10) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Non-existent customer service; line cuts off every time we call, emailed 9 days ago & still no response & bill has increased to £167 pm for fewer services! Wouldn’t mind but I only watch Netflix! 😱

  • MrCRichardson Craig Richardson (@MrCRichardson) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia help help what do you need to do to get help from virgin media..😡😡😡😡

  • WiganpierprAnne Wiganpierpromo (@WiganpierprAnne) reported from Wrightington, England

    @virginmedia I am appalled at the customer service. Trying obtain my last bill from 3 months ago. Can’t be done!!account closed. They never sent packaging to send router back after 3 phone calls I gave up but got charged for it.

  • AngeTurner816 Ange Turner 🔶 (@AngeTurner816) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia Sorry. I am asking you to tell me what the problem is and what you planing to do about it!

  • davetarl Dave Tarleton (@davetarl) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi RCG, I say hours, was just short of an hour! All sorted now. My gripe is there should be a cancel/leave option on the website saves ringing up and waiting when you are leaving no matter what.

  • AngeTurner816 Ange Turner 🔶 (@AngeTurner816) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria Every single evening your WiFi goes down for about two hours around teatime. Last night it went off at 6.00 pm and came back on at about 11.00 pm!

  • _DebDeb_ Deb Deb (@_DebDeb_) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia wow called up to cancel and the guy says I’ve successfully cancelled and then hangs up!!! Thank god I’ve decided not to go with you!

  • BeStrongBolton Be Strong Daz (@BeStrongBolton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia an absolute shambles broadband service for the last 3 weeks and not scheduled to be fixed until 9th Sept 2019.

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had no service all day as have other people in the street.... not the first time I’ve had to sit on the weekend and miss my team live on tv for which I pay a good deal of money for, I don’t need to check a checker to tell me your service isn’t working

  • markfrobi Mark Robinson (@markfrobi) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is abysmal. I am fed up of chatting to a robot or someone in india repeatedly asking me the same questions and getting absolutely nowhere. 3 engineer visits, many phonecalls, online chats (some not even answered) and still got nowhere.

  • JamesRead78 James Read (@JamesRead78) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia need to chat with someone about lowering my bill £100 per month is getting ridiculous! Tried using the chat function on the app but it's not working

  • CRMann78 NYPD Blue (@CRMann78) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Been with Virgin for 5 days of dreadful customer service, how can a mobile set up result in loss of all subscribed tv channels, held in queue for over an hour is the norm, will be cancelling my contract due to this total mismanagement #VirginMediaSucks

  • baabaa89 Victoria. 🐝 (@baabaa89) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia appalled at the service I’m currently receiving from your customer service rep on the phone. If she calls me “m’am” one more time, I might cry. Her attitude stinks.

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia @LadyHorkins Standard response from a truly shit company who tell lies and say an 82 yr old’s husband ordered sky films after he’d been dead for 9 months then deny any wrong doing in their internal enquiry. Then provide what I can only describe as a piss poor service ... don’t buy virgin

  • mickryanphoto Mick Ryan (@mickryanphoto) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Oh don’t tell me to switch it off and on again.... there is no service wether it’s on the checker or not.. can’t be arsed searching for something I already know ... no virgin, I’m oot

  • voidfrosts 𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑖𝑎 - #SaveMacGyver (@voidfrosts) reported

    NEVER GET @virginmedia How do they promise me 500mbps speed on my contract but they give me under 100mbps. Then I find out it was the hub which was the issue all along? When initially upgrading they did not provide me with a new router now they are telling me -

  • benxg Ben Goodyear (@benxg) reported

    @virginmedia broadband out in B17 - have an engineer appt but wonder if it's a larger issue?

  • MellieOhhh Mel Osborne (@MellieOhhh) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I keep getting calls from mobile numbers claiming to be virgin media technicians who say they are detecting issues with my security. I hang up but they keep calling am I right to think these are scams?

  • nil_patel85 Nil (@nil_patel85) reported

    @virginmedia Our broadband connection has been unstable for the past 24hours. Please can you sort this out as working from home is very difficult without a stable Internet connection. #poorservice

  • RejectedBOT_ RejectedBOT (@RejectedBOT_) reported

    @virginmedia I've had this problem for 2 weeks now ... But I shall give this another 24 hours and see what happens and keep you updated for sure !! (I was told it "could" also be a node nearby that needs replacing).

  • DawnTay79919095 Dawn Taylor (@DawnTay79919095) reported

    @virginmedia Is there a problem with mobile services also? I’ve had intermittent problems with loading data for over a week now. Never an issue before.

  • 0Jim23 JamesM (@0Jim23) reported

    @virginmedia Network went down did usual checks. Still not working. Called 150 to be told Virgin was doing essential work in my area. Apparently this is best achieved by taking it away until 6pm. No warning from VM now that a service well worth paying for.🤬🤬
