    @virginmedia ...when all she has is TV on an old box and a phone line. She's house bound and this is all she has. The 1st feller attitude was disgusting and said like it or lump it. Clearly doesn't enjoy his job at Virgin Media and customer service is not his game! Awaiting a manger today, ty

    @Jacedafaceis @virginmedia Yes. Been out to lake district, and 4G mobile phone signal was quick and more reliable than the broadband. And people thought it was normal.

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

    @virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

    Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

    @virginmedia Hello, my broadband was supposed to be installed on 6th Sept but your engineer only did half a job and ****** off. When I call up to find out when you're coming back to finish my installation, I can't get a straight answer and nobody calls me back! Shite service!

    @virginmedia I’ve just done that. If you watch the video though you’ll see it doesn’t even let me get to the login page. As soon as I click on virgin media customer it tries to take me to a website & then closes down

    @RakeLark @handsomedave32 @VirginMediaNews What personal issues, my disgust at the race baiting grifters and the morons who support them? If that’s a personal issue I’ll happily hold it. Where did I say it wasn’t a concern or problem? I stated facts about Virgin Media, & that many agencies can get state funds!

    Hey @virginmedia given that your website is full of broken and circular links making it impossible to do anything, and your chat service just fails, how do I actually talk to someone?

    @ryantegan @skytv I had to cancel my virgin media after years with them and sign up as the wife to get the offer I wanted. Madness stuff.

    @virginmedia please please please can you replace my ancient 11 year old Hub 3. It doesn't play nice with my modern Nest WiFi Pro mesh system. It wasn't very good when it was new! Customer services won't help because it's not actually broken!

  • KevinMuldoon
    Kevin Muldoon (@KevinMuldoon) reported

    @virginmedia has to be the worst ISP in the UK. Currently raising a CISAS complaint against them due to how they're terrorirising my elderly mother. May have to take this to small claims too as it's impossible to speak to any UK staff who can resolve anything.
