  • Look_North Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

    @virginmedia Continual issues with the credit agreement email not arriving (and yes I checked junk!) It took a webchat and 3 calls to get anywhere near resolving this. Had my dad in his 70s in tears at the stress. I do have to say after almost 2hrs on the phone today we finally 1/

  • AshkboosNazanin Nazanin Ashkboos (@AshkboosNazanin) reported

    @virginmedia I even purchased a booster and it didn’t help. Its more of an issue that it has to be constant reset. The connection is not strong enough even when we are in the same room as the hub

  • Misseymystica Ms Mena-Love (@Misseymystica) reported

    So unfair @virginmedia. You guys ruined my Friday with the broadband issues. I can’t wait to move home just so I can go back to @Hyperoptic.

  • MarkStanford05 Mark Stanford (@MarkStanford05) reported

    @4Viewers The issue has no been fixed. It was on virgin media v6 box.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported

    @virginmedia @B__Rani People can expand but you can't do anything about it, you know you are crap just read forums, garbage,garbage, garbage, you know it, we know it, I still have 12 months left on my contract how much will it cost to leave?

    @virginmedia No...this needs correcting NOW; this isn’t the first time we’ve had problems with Virgin and your customer service sucks!

  • GeorgyRM George Fairnington (@GeorgyRM) reported

    @virginmedia I received a phone call today from someone alleging to be Virgin Media telling me in an Indian accent that there was a security problem with my Internet, needless to say I hung up after keeping him on the line for quite a while. Another scammer.

  • Misseymystica Ms Mena-Love (@Misseymystica) reported

    @virginmedia It said 6pm, it’s now 8pm! It’s been like this all day. I tried working remotely on the terrible broadband, exhausted my mobile data and missed two meetings. It was a bright and sunny day and spent it praying over WiFi. 😔😔😔

  • lottieelson_ lottie (@lottieelson_) reported

    @virginmedia Provide a better service and compensation for lost service under 48 hours, never known anything so poor

  • IDanzoh Danzoh™️ (@IDanzoh) reported

    @virginmedia on the phone twice and your colleagues put the phone down complete joke, not to mention changing my bill date and concealing my direct debit without even sending an email!
