  • JoeSpen05256454 Joe Spencer (@JoeSpen05256454) reported from Northampton, England

    @virginmedia Dean C promised me a call back over a week ago to discuss the virgin media data breach and the fact I can access 36 other peoples email accounts. I require a deadlock letter to my complaint so I can go to the ombudsman.

  • DazCarson68 Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hard to cancel when SMS, text and phone never answered

  • DazCarson68 Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I understand but surely you must have some sort of system? Purposely making it impossible to cancel is ridiculous

  • DazCarson68 Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia @Muggleflump Same here, impossible to cancel which is more than likely done on purpose, terrible company ethics

  • DBrickerz . (@DBrickerz) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is a shambles

  • JoeSpen05256454 Joe Spencer (@JoeSpen05256454) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia 3 times this week I’ve tried to cancel my contract, 3 phone calls, all of which I get cut off from when I mention the word ‘cancel’!! Coincidence? Strange how I don’t get cut off during the long time I’m on hold!?! 🤔

  • mogfood Michael O'Gorman (@mogfood) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    Hi @virginmedia you have been utterly appalling. I have been trying to contact someone you about my complaint since 9/1/23 and you’ve fobbed me off. Terrible service.

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done the factory reset and still having issues. Sky boxes need to be reconnected to wifi every day and I’ve checked it all out with Sky and it’s not a Sky problem. It’s a Virgin wifi issue.

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia having major issues with my broadband.

  • JoeSpen05256454 Joe Spencer (@JoeSpen05256454) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Been trying since 9am!! All day all I’ve got is the fire starter and rugby players!! Hit ‘login with Virgin Media’ Hit ‘continue’ then welcome to a blank screen! #peterkay #virginmedia #useless

  • garycross Gary Cross (@garycross) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Spoken with two different agents and got teo different answers. One said there was a known fault and the other said the opposite. Second agent claimed he booked me a virtual help call hut nobody called. I've ended up having to book my own engineer visit. Nobody has been helpful.

  • jamesagraphics J Δ (@jamesagraphics) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia 5 days without broadband after being told the issue will be fixed in 5 hours! SORT it the hell out!!

  • TylerQ2001 Tyler Quantrill (@TylerQ2001) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia No known issues in the area, and then the services test doesn’t work either? 😕

  • TylerQ2001 Tyler Quantrill (@TylerQ2001) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia broadband down? Woke up with it connected but not working at all?

  • TeaforKarin Karin & Stanley ☕🍰😷♒ (@TeaforKarin) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia please can someone help me. My virgin box is telling me I am not authorised to watch BBC2 😠 Why? Had some general works in the area yesterday 19/4 please can someone please rectify this immediately. Thanks

  • Lis4learning L is 4 Learning (@Lis4learning) reported from Market Harborough, England

    @virginmedia I’m with virgin media and recently changed my bundle. I have been sent an o2 SIM card, but I am unsure why? I already an O2 customer? @O2

  • 4KFreelance 4k Freelance - 4k UHD - HD Digital Creative Media (@4KFreelance) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @pianobook1 @venustheory Took me 3-4 days to download all of the Decent Sampler packs on the slowest broadband possible from Virgin Media. Basic package. Only packs over 1GB failed network and restarted downloads. Meg are fine to download. Long haul nearly done with it.

  • garycross Gary Cross (@garycross) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia why advertise your call centre being open til 8PM if you're hanging up on me at 19:10? Having issues with my TV and your online tools aren't doing anything.

  • covrules Jamie Nairn (@covrules) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia No - he meant to put me on hold but actually cut me off & never rang me back!

  • covrules Jamie Nairn (@covrules) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve rung and got no where. I’ve tried online and got nowhere. I’ve texted and got nowhere. Just crap customer service.

  • Amanda20125308 Amanda Beesley (@Amanda20125308) reported

    Worst customer service ever from @O2 Raised a complaint, several weeks later they tried to contact me but I was driving so they closed the complaint!!!! And all of this is due to the incompetence of the staff at the Livingston branch 😡 @virginmedia

  • RobRollin2 Audere Est Facere (@RobRollin2) reported

    @Tramzadol @virginmedia @VodafoneUK Honest i think the constant time changes are pissing me more than the actual outage! Its crazy bad!. Have you done the compo thing online? Make sure you do mate.

  • RobRollin2 Audere Est Facere (@RobRollin2) reported

    @Tramzadol @virginmedia Honest its a joke. Never had a issue with @VodafoneUK , i need to beg forgiveness and go back ASAP!!!!.

  • Phil0266 Phil Halshaw (@Phil0266) reported

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia it is now over 2 days since I have been unable to login in to my virgin media account or access Sky Sports via the Sky Sports App or via internet. When will this be fixed and where is the communication explaining the fault.

  • tim_abell Tim Abell (@tim_abell) reported

    @virginmedia how ******** do you speak to a human at virgin media? The phone system is completely impenetrable. #CustomerDisservice

  • Keith_965 SAYes Keith (@Keith_965) reported

    @virginmedia - email service and login still down since 1100 on 14th. Been on cable here 31 years and more than 10 with Virgin Media - hit a low point. Please resolve.

  • arnie1984 James Arnold (@arnie1984) reported

    @virginmedia It's a joke though, we pay for a service and it doesn't even run properly. I'd love to say it's only a one off scenario, but it's happened more this year than others. I'd swap provider if I could but Sky in this area just doesn't reach the same level as you when working.

  • arnie1984 James Arnold (@arnie1984) reported

    @virginmedia a little unhappy that my Virgin Media services have been down from around 0730 this morning and it shows it's not going to be resolved till tomorrow afternoon. My postcode is TW19 7HY. A little unhappy as we've been unable to use services we pay for due to WiFi.

  • ExN_SKRT Adam Damarell (@ExN_SKRT) reported

    @virginmedia 4 times in 6 days that both broadband and Tv have been down for extended periods of time. What on earth is going on at Virgin media? Happy to take my £70+ a month, will be claiming compensation.

  • LornieWillins Lorna Willins (@LornieWillins) reported

    @virginmedia please answer your phone I need help with my virgin media app
