  • Kimbow21 Mrs K E (@Kimbow21) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I’m not bothered now we have left . The guy who answered the phone couldn’t be less interested . Every thing he was saying was on a card . He was very un professional and didn’t understand English fully . So he can’t be bothered to help I can’t be bothered .

    @David4Charnock @virginmedia Ha ha!! You’re getting help off my issue!! On hold for over an hour and live chat keeps disconnecting as no advisors are available!!

  • 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

  • flux_blair Alex Downes (@flux_blair) reported from Liverpool, England

    Just had a call from @virginmedia asking me what I use my network for, how many devices I have on the network. Please mind your own business, answers to these questions can be used by OCGs to target my home and only call me if you really have to. Thanks

  • Kimbow21 kimberley Goodinson (@Kimbow21) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I’m disgusted I’ve been a customer for 15 years and more . You’ve put the price up by £20. The very unhelpful person on the phone offered me a £2 discount . Disgusting back to Sky .

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia As per usual there’ll be no problems in the area, I’ll get told to unplug the box, then you’ll book an engineer for about 5days time, meanwhile the problem magically disappears #badservice

  • rian951 Rian Murray (@rian951) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia Well unless you can help with a booster - customer services wanted £360 for an EE one! Most other providers offer WiFi Calling!

  • textmaniaa Tracey Brooks (@textmaniaa) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia what's the point in sending a letter stating if yr service hasn't resumed by 5pm ring this number. When they shut at 5pm. Poor service again from virgin media. Nearly 8pm and still no tele or broadband. What a joke of a company.

  • Childwallcable Tony Zeverona (@Childwallcable) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia you have the worst customer services I have ever experienced from being cut off during calls to failure to call back

  • JoelLJelen JoelJelen (@JoelLJelen) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia it’s 2019, your online customer service is so poor and your offline telephone service saw me waiting 15 mins and still in a queue! Given up.

  • aish_a_ aisha (@aish_a_) reported from Bolton, England

    Virgin media is so ******* SHIT sick of this life

  • Alison_hh Alison Hesketh-Holt (@Alison_hh) reported from Leyland, England

    Absoloutley disgusted with @virginmedia been on hold for 2 hours - I'm an existing customer and one agent has hung on me!!! I want to discuss my existing contract with them. How the hell are you supposed to speak to the complaints department or a manager in charge!

  • GrahamEdgington Graham Edgington (@GrahamEdgington) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia My Mother in law recently went into care with the late stages of Alzheimers and as power of attorney of her affairs I have tried to cancel her phone contract however your customers service did not want to know. They marked the file closed and said I would 1/3

  • 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.

  • GrahamEdgington Graham Edgington (@GrahamEdgington) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia receive a final account for £63 and that would be the end of things. The final account never arrived however the outstanding account has been passed to BPOB collections who bumped it up to £269.96. I have paid the account off, so sincerely hope that Mr Branson 1/3

  • shaunbentley Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Trip haziest outside my house cables running to next door which were supposed to be temporary, unstable service, rattling router, some of these issues have been resolved. Others haven’t. I’ve asked for final response but no one will talk to me about this.

  • adam_bm ABM (@adam_bm) reported

    @virginmedia probably the worst customer service in the world. Had the fibre installed last week and now some technician has cut me off - at our request... #shockingservice #anotherhourwaitingonthephone

  • SqueezyKez KezSqueeze (@SqueezyKez) reported

    Second call to @virginmedia today for the second cancellation of engineer visit. Approx five hours on the phone over the past week and no fix thus far. Useless.

  • Gerry75610890 Gerry (@Gerry75610890) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I moved property come over to Virgin media after them offering me same deal as another provider was offering. The whole experience has been awful. The package I discussed was wrong. I'm now being charge more than I was paying. I expect much better.

  • HacktoFlack Alli* 🤜🏼🤛🏼 (@HacktoFlack) reported

    @virginmedia I’m not going to waste more of my time going over the same issues on Twitter that I’ve been trying to get resolved since 18/11. If you want to help pass this onto your customer service people with account # 779890604 and get them to contact us.

  • vksxypants vksxypants (@vksxypants) reported

    Terrible experience with @virginmedia. Scheduled installation for tomorrow, then get a text today saying it was "on hold". Spent ages with useless "text support", not able to tell me when it will get installed. Finally get through on phone and it's 6-8 weeks!!! Useless, terrible.

  • AmbushSlayer_ ZᴍʙɪᴇSʟᴀʏᴇʀ // #AmbushFAM (@AmbushSlayer_) reported

    @virginmedia That site never gets updated. Your services have been down since June and that page hasn’t changed. I had one of your team out today to “fix the problem” and it’s not fixed it in the slightest

  • NathanC231091 Nathan Clark (@NathanC231091) reported

    @virginmedia 1 hour and 3 minutes on hold to get through to technical support for a two day old problem... YOU'RE A MESS OF A COMPANY

  • gaz_manley Garry manley (@gaz_manley) reported

    @VodafoneUK shocking customer service, worse than virgin media. Many times I’ve had to call up to fix a broadband issue and still not solved, now telling me there is nothing you can do unless I buy something to run a test

  • MartinGilchri17 Martin Gilchrist (@MartinGilchri17) reported

    @virginmedia #RememberBigIssue You are rubbish. NO customer service and NO response from complaints. Rot in hell.
