  • JamieLFC1972 L3 Red (@JamieLFC1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @richardbranson I experienced the worst customer service ever from @virginmedia. Can someone explain to me why new customers get a better deal than loyal existing customers? It's criminal in this day and age really isn't it?

  • terrificsue Susan Rigby (@terrificsue) reported from Wigan, England

    @terrificsue everyone out there be careful when receiving telephone calls and if they say they are from Virgin Media please check and check. I have been scammed today out of a lot of money . I am the one who thought would never be scammed but I was. Oohh .

  • Baxy2001 Baxy (@Baxy2001) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia please can you explain why I have been in a queue to speak to someone for over 35 minutes to try and cancel my contract? Absolute joke of a company, poor services and poor customer service.

  • JamieLFC1972 L3 Red (@JamieLFC1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Us? As in your sub contracted call centre who's staff are not actually Virgin employees? Yeah, tried that and they can't look after Virgin's loyal customers either. I'll just leave, and come back in 3 months like I was told too. Shambolic customer service.

  • iamcraigadamson Craig Adamson (@iamcraigadamson) reported from Liverpool, England

    Virgin media making Sky look more and more tempting every night. Another outage, come on guys.

  • Allenwalkden Woggy (@Allenwalkden) reported from St Helens, England

    Internet @virginmedia is down in WA10 and your device status page is giving a 404

  • aralph50 Amanda Ralph (@aralph50) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia must hate all their customers if they treat customers of 30 years this badly @skytv

  • JamieLFC1972 L3 Red (@JamieLFC1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @richardbranson I experienced the worst customer service ever today from @virginmedia. Can someone explain to me why new customers get a better deal than loyal existing customers? It's criminal in this day and age really isn't it?

  • jenlew1983 Jeanette Lewis (@jenlew1983) reported from Liverpool, England

    Yet again my @virginmedia TV isn't working and yet again there's no help on the website and no answer on the phone.....exactly what am I paying my bill for??!!

  • anthony_murphy1 Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

  • obpls1995 owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Yes I'm still experiencing issues. Iv paid for somthing that I still havnt got.

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

  • obpls1995 owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia question for you. If I enter a contract with you where you promise X service +items and I promise to pay X amount. If I don't pay X amount am I breaking the contract?

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

  • aitch5012 MickHoll (@aitch5012) reported from Liverpool, England

    @richardbranson @virginmedia has to be the worst company for customer service I have ever come across in my 41 years on this planet. 2 hours on the phone yesterday and today and passed from pillar to post and still non the wiser. Absolute disgrace and I’m being kind !

  • aitch5012 MickHoll (@aitch5012) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I know it isn’t correct pal. Hence my initial tweet. Not your fault sorry but an awful experience which I know won’t even register losing 1 customer but I’ve never dealt with such incompetence from every dept so needed to warn others

  • tweetsfromchlo Chlòe (@tweetsfromchlo) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve had no picture or sound on my TV for 24 hours now. Even on my apps the picture and sound aren’t loading. Subtitles still showing up though. It’s a TiVo box. Any help appreciated would be great.

  • obpls1995 owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia I do have a problem paying. I'm currently paying for a service where the Internet isn't working half then time. 5 times in the past month we have had no signal. You promise items with your packed Currently received 1/3 and had to complain about that over the phone.

  • TheRealRagtag Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia No email access for 3 days now on the blueyonder access. All I get is "Oops, this page is broken." System says nothing is wrong. Terrible. I have done a check, and it says everything is working correctly on BBand/Telly. ??? Area 01.

  • aralph50 Amanda Ralph (@aralph50) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia worst customer service ever. Have been a customer for 30 years and called today to review my package. 35 minutes, 3 departments later and still no closer to being sorted.

    @virginmedia Let's hope their data speeds are quicker than their service

  • Bostonian7119 The Bostonian (@Bostonian7119) reported

    @virginmedia Nope. When I had the issue, with signing in, I searched for The Cockfields & the search brought up the first 2 series and the Christmas Special. But now, I can only access series 1.

  • its_r4ch Rach’ (@its_r4ch) reported

    @virginmedia Is there anyway to speak to a customer service agent on the phone in the UK? Having absolutely no luck with the chat bot and I’m not already a customer so can’t use the phone number displayed on the website!!

  • grahamrogers999 Graham Rogers (@grahamrogers999) reported

    @virginmedia It's a fast tbh. A real slap in the face how bad the install has been. The engineer said you would need all 3 with a big grin on his face

  • PonDGazza Gas (@PonDGazza) reported

    @virginmedia Finally got to the bottom of it but I got hung up on twice by said Retention team, sent to different departments before finally having it annulled. Not sure if it’s a marketing strategy or not but it’s a time consuming & tedious process just to cancel a contract.

  • MaxieB101 MaxieB (@MaxieB101) reported

    @virginmedia Does this help? Complaint IC-310323-181.

  • A_Turner100 Adrian Turner (@A_Turner100) reported

    @virginmedia It’s worth pointing out that I really want to join Virginmedia but Virginmedia are making it impossible. Please help me

  • chriswest1981 Chris West (@chriswest1981) reported

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi. Engineers were unable to fix. I would be grateful for call back to happen 👍🏼

  • A_Turner100 Adrian Turner (@A_Turner100) reported

    @virginmedia No, I’m just wasting my time trying to get anyone to help me. I’m now pricing up Sky as I think I will have no choice but to return to them. At least they’ll help me.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Sheldon, England

    @virginmedia I don’t think so I’m still getting distorted TV on a few channels it’s frustrating as my complaint never gets recified I’ve spent hours on end trying to get it sorted
