@virginmedia Please ask someone to call us to sort out the 4G Voom and get the fixed WIFI installed as per the original quote. This has been delayed for a month. Your service has been an absolute disgrace.

Really didn’t want to spend my evening trying to fix our new Virgin Media internet because they can’t and can’t send an engineer until 29th Dec (like that’s at all acceptable for a service we’re meant to be paying for). Why we went with them again after everything this year...

@virginmedia As we have already established after the while goose chance you sent us on getting the phone unlocked there is nothing you can do to resolve the issue caused by you. Hence why I'm moving my grandad to another provider that won't disconnect him. Merry Christmas.

@virginmedia My 87yo Nanna has just come out of hospital and her BB is not working. Followed all online advice and still nothing. Been on hold for 1h so far. Appalling service. I am going to switch her ASAP.

Come on @virginmedia I have now been on the phone for 2 hours today chasing up your engineer who didn’t show up yesterday. Getting kicked from one queue to the next and nobody will to take responsibility or problem solve. Not much Christmas spirit in that.

@virginmedia And why can’t anyone actually check with the complaint number I’ve given instead of messaging me asking what my complaint was about? Do I constantly have to repeat myself?

@virginmedia Terrible customer service, from the original order, however it seems this is the norm- especially after using the text service you provide. Honestly I don’t know how Virgin as a company actually manages to keep customers! I’ve been with you lest than a month and it’s awful

(@SpencerSchwar14) reported
@virginmedia utterly useless. Repeatedly requested to activate my account on a daily basis and been advised that you will get back to me within 24 hours and zilch! No Internet, no ability to do my day job without Internet. Is this how you treat potential customers? Disgusting!

@virginmedia How do I apply for this, it may be a stupid question since you have said it's automatic?

@virginmedia No known issues. Just poor communication and management from Virgin Media. And no help whatsoever in trying to resolve, just passed from one team/person to another before cutting me off. Hours and hours wasted and no internet. So appalling.

@virginmedia wired it giving me 200mbps down 21mbps up. But I still get lots of spiking in the internet. Wired works okay but the wifi is shockingly ****.

@SkullNetUK @Ofcom Gigabit is premises where Virgin Media Gig1 service (which is DOCSIS 3.1) is available OR a full fibre service is available. Not sure which area, but figures suggest one where Gig1 roll-out is partial or we've not finished with our sweep of the area for Gig1.

@virginmedia I already raised my concerns with your team, they closed my complain with no proper investigation or resolution and told me to take my complaint to the relevant regulatory body. Which I will be doing so.
