    I have a go at customer service a lot, but with the move @virginmedia were great, @thameswater exemplary, @SouthernWater a great guy on customer helpline and Test Valley Council efficient and personable. It can be done, you know.

    Virgin media has to be the worst internet provider I’ve ever had the trouble to experience

    @thedarkfenix @virginmedia I hope so. I really rely on the service now.

    @virginmedia Still no call. Still no service. Still no customer support whatsoever from virgin media.

    @virginmedia So I won’t have 4+ months of grief, demands for an account that is cancelled and debt collectors letters for that account then? That’s a relief as your behaviour with my account has worn me down whilst grieving for my Dad but it’s not stopped you….

    @_JC8 @virginmedia @virginmedia Hi can somebody please contact me regarding an issue I have with my virgin account please?

  • colingrinnell
    colin grinnell (@colingrinnell) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia is there any known problems with your WiFi hub ? The WiFi signal I receive is terrible constantly dropping out. I spend most of the time on 3G as it’s more reliable. I have rebooted all routers and boosters but noting seems to make the WiFi work

    @virginmedia @TimTastic38 Ok, so if we paid part of the bill as we had a loss of service for part of the day that would be fine too?????

  • PandaKingPinder
    Panda 🐼 (@PandaKingPinder) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia We have tried adding a new service and thinking of leaving as none of the others apply and there is no option to call for upgrading. Your automatic service is not helpful and it would be easier to just go through to speak to someone.

    @virginmedia It is not working, on live chat you wanted to charge me £40 more a month to activate it , joke.

  • sarah_mcginty
    Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia so,issues in my area today, service status said fixed by 6pm,my internet/some tv stations still not working, service status says no issues, rebooted the Internet router....whats the next step?!

  • formula1girl
    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I cancelled in July (which apparently you have no record of) so I contacted you in Sept when you threatened to cut my service off, that I wasn’t using anymore, and told you I’d cancelled. I’m not paying this!! Absolutely ridiculous!!

  • sarah_mcginty
    Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia We've got Internet so not as bad as it could be as i do have a teenager in the house,however I would like the tv to be back up by 9pm pretty please so i can watch @imacelebrity @antanddec thanks!!

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Come on! This is as lazy as your customer service. Of course I have service.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately no end in sight. I had to make another call to Virgin today. It took 40 minutes before I was talking to someone. It seems Virgin are not capable to get this over the line without me pushing them onto the next step and following up to make sure things are done. Poor

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia The same live date of the 21st still stands. Virgin have repeatedly guaranteed they’ll get it ready for then. Perhaps you can give them a nudge to let them know they have 3 days to get the outside work done. I’m sensing another let down, and I bet you won’t do anything about it!

  • leeradcliffe73
    lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have used the connect app and it only works when I’m a meter from the router. I’m paying you for a service you can’t provide but you call me to say why don’t you upgrade to 300mb speeds when you can’t even give 10. Appalling

    @ruthapanda @Deference_Matt @virginmedia Denno’s internet is too slow for him to reply...

    @virginmedia need help regarding new landline not working?

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Well... @VodafoneUK also invest around about the same amount of money in their network, and they haven't increased the prices anywhere near as much as you have. And I'm always connected whenever I'm outside the house. No issues with connectivity whatsoever.

    @O2 @O2Help @VirginMedia I have been ignored for a week by your complaints team. I am now in Mexico with no service at all despite written assurances that Mexico is covered under my Inclusive Zone benefit. Complaint ref: C‑2707267834. Urgent senior‑level fix required today.

    love this. all that capitalist guff about 'the consumer is king' it's just another lie. we are marks and the tories let us get shaken down by brands. glad to see those rats at @virginmedia held to account but they should be paying compensation too.

  • MrSonicAdvance
    Sonic (@MrSonicAdvance) reported

    @virginmedia What I found frustrating, was that if I trimmed features from my package, the monthly price would go up, and if I added additional features the monthly price would go down. Utterly perverse! The whole process left me frustrated and bemused. Lovely people on your team, though. 👍

    @virginmedia another hot day. Another day of utterly shite internet service. Much of the population WFH and your service is making this more and more impossible. My router has been rebooted. There are known local network issues - and it can’t be the wrong kind of heat #pissedoff

  • pauldewolfe
    paul d (@pauldewolfe) reported

    @virginmedia Really disappointed. Called to renew my contract but couldn’t get a good enough deal, so wanted to cancel. They couldn’t process it and told me to call back. I did, gave my name, email, ph number, bank details and last payment, but they still couldn’t pass security.

  • tezlee1
    Terry Lee (@tezlee1) reported

    Help! there was a fault in my area, but Im told its resolved, my router is still flashing red so a full outage still exits. The call center in India had no idea what to do and kept referring to a different ongoing outage. No service but no recorded outage! Help!! @virginmedia
