    @virginmedia I spent over an hour on the phone yesterday trying to get through to a customer service rep only to get cut off. Still waiting to hear on WhatsApp and been on hold this afternoon 45 mins and still holding???? Whats going on??

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!

  • onearmedjohn
    Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had two lengthy phone calls with your ‘technical support’ people; it briefly got quicker then stopped working completely. On their instructions I’ve changed some settings on my router which apparently may take 48 hours to fully take effect…

    @virginmedia Yes and there are/were no known broadband issues showing in the area on the service page

  • onearmedjohn
    Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia No, we’re way past all that now, this has been going on for months/years. Now, I can’t even get to talk to anyone. I’ve requested you change my box. You haven’t. What is the head office address for service of legal documents please?

  • moleyfozz
    paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, England

    Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia They haven’t got through to anyone to cancel it yet?

  • yiddo71
    Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia No landline for 9 days following a house move, incorrect bills, and poor customer service being cut off many times

  • TylerTowers
    Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) reported from Gillingham, England

    I’ve been on my knees far too much tonight. @virginmedia your broadband is awful these days. And resetting either fails or lasts 10 mins. From superhero to supergran. Not worth your monthly bill. #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    @virginmedia get your broadband sorted or I WILL WALK AWAY WITHOUT PAYING ANY EXIST CONTRACT FEE AS without due adequate or above standard broadband speed and service which has been for the past 3 weeks I WILL be going elsewhere and you can shove it up the *** or SUCK ON IT

  • Old_Motherduck
    Old Motherduck (@Old_Motherduck) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry maybe you should make that clear from the beginning and treat loyal customers as first time customers

  • RRS91718
    Robert 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽ (@RRS91718) reported

    @virginmedia For the 3rd time in under 2 weeks our internet has gone completely down. This is becoming totally unreliable

  • df1888
    d_f1888 (@df1888) reported

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler Shocking customer service from VM. Next step will be contacting the communications ombudsman

  • Droyjfc

    @virginmedia Hi, i tried to do that. The virgin worker was rude and uncooperative, I ended up putting the phone down

  • RandomRocker
    Tim 🤘 (@RandomRocker) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I transferred my mothers account into my name after she passed a few months ago, it all seemed to work but now when I try and login they want my fathers password..who passed away 8 years ago and refuse to let me in without it.. Their account system is awful and they don't care.

  • antiprotests
    On The Right Side (@antiprotests) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I’m sorry for your loss, this interaction with @virginmedia just goes to show how “important” the customer journey is to all of the big communications companies. They are just interested in new customers and have little care or empathy with their existing customers.

  • w47carr
    Mrs c (@w47carr) reported

    So been without WiFi and tv because of @virginmedia outage in barnsley since early morning supposed to be fixed by 5pm tonight and 4g is useless

  • Refan80
    Corax (@Refan80) reported

    @virginmedia The fix estimate is not 11am tomorrow and not 5pm today. This is unacceptable, and don't tell me to check the link it tells us nothing. I want an actual human to tell me what is going on. For what you charge the service is piss poor.

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia When my dad died i had to cancel his holiday, they accidentally sent me there internal conversation which was them discussing not telling me about the death policy (which would give a full refund ) and to only offer a refund on the deposit. Companies are awful
