    @virginmedia Your customer service is absolutely garbage how many people am I expected to speak to and how long do i have to wait to get something resolved.

  • BIGTED1967 J.B (@BIGTED1967) reported from Knutsford, England

    @LobbyNoNumbers We pay about £66 per month with @virginmedia for the basic tv,broadband and phone that we never use. Probably the worst customer service around. They promised to upgrade the set top box 2 years ago and we're still waiting.

  • steveeades Steve Eades (@steveeades) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia poor customer services this evening, on hold for over an hour to only be cut off. Clearly not interested in existing customers, only new with very expensive monthly costs for the same poor service.

  • Knxfee Knxfee (@Knxfee) reported

    @JOKERUKG @virginmedia £105 a month for it to go down all the time

  • appccessible Kevin (@appccessible) reported

    @virginmedia Already done. It doesn't fix it. So on the previous question. Are you using @Oracle because @VodafoneUK do and they know all about this issue when customers leave and then return a few years later using the same email address.

  • wainscott1 Wainscott (@wainscott1) reported

    Seeing as Virgin Media is trending, has anyone else had broadband connection problems ever since they had no choice in being upgraded to superfast 100MB+? I wouldn't even call it fast a lot of the time! It was fine before that.

  • Societies_Pests Harry Scott (@Societies_Pests) reported

    @HomelesPenguin @the_pieface @virginmedia I've been a field tech, network engineer, headend engineer and network planner for VM. Trust me, you're talking bollocks. No national issue.

  • few1971 ⚫️⚪️⚫️Frank Williamson⚫️⚪️⚫️ (@few1971) reported

    @virginmedia morning I rang up at 8am this morning and was informed that you are super busy, who knew so many people wanted to leave VM, anyway 20 minutes in and I have spoken with someone and am now being transferred to someone else, all I want to do is cancel my contract

  • KyleCiesielczuk K. C. (@KyleCiesielczuk) reported

    @the_pieface @virginmedia Tempting fate here but I have had no issues with virgin for a few months now.

  • JenfleurSmith Jenny Smith (@JenfleurSmith) reported

    @virginmedia No Wi-Fi again. Please rectify for the RM11 area, this is unacceptable ‘service’.

  • doitallpaul69 paul winchester (@doitallpaul69) reported

    @virginmedia No idea what the connect app is but i know where it doesnt work properly. I just need a link or a phone number to order them. It should be a simple process but like everything with virgin its not

  • comicbookguy_UK Mr Comic Book (@comicbookguy_UK) reported

    @ScottishSun why havent you mentioned the constant @virginmedia outages EVERY night at midnight this week? Subscribers up & down the nation losing all internet including the VM website going down yet Virgin refuse to acknowledge it! We're fed up with this!!

  • appccessible Kevin (@appccessible) reported

    One question for @virginmedia. Do you use @Oracle to manage your customer database?
