    @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

    @virginmedia Sorry I really don’t get it. A few hours ago I was told that your team would investigate etc. Now you’re telling you don’t have any access so I’m left to hang on with no one from VM being able to update me. Is that it?

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

    Tenth issue in FOUR months now with @virginmedia. They've seemed to have stopped replying to my direct messages now. @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk how long until you're newly installed lines in my area are activated and ready?

    @virginmedia Was Thursday or Friday but you never call me back when you say you will, so I'm not confident it will be completed unless I keep chasing it up.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

  • MarkLangshaw
    Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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!

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I reported a total loss of service on 31/8. It was finally fixed this morning. After no shows, lies and weeks between visits. They have not even offered to cover the cost of my last 3 dd’s which I wish I hadn’t paid as I had no service whatsoever

  • agarnett
    Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia the service with the WiFi or TV services in the BR5 is poor. 3 times in the last week one of them has went down, today it's the WiFi again.

    @virginmedia They aren't recently issues they are current issues is BB being throttled back? All i get from virgin is there's no problems in the network so why is it so slow?

    @RosyPosy_kitteh @IamCarrieagain @virginmedia They were very rude to me this afternoon. Both on chat then phone. Ill be cancelling my services next week once I have the opportunity to ring up. They treat older (I'm 72) people with disrespect.

  • Neale1100
    Neale B (@Neale1100) reported

    @virginmedia Its says the problem will be repaired on the 27th, I assume you will be applying a credit for the lack of tv and wifi provided to those affected ? I work from home, this simply isn't good enough

  • Anumcaras
    Anumcara (@Anumcaras) reported

    @virginmedia I will be in touch by Monday. I’ve just discovered two layers of payments added to my credit file. Although there was no services connected because your call centre signed me up with an engineer. Knowing I was leaving the country and I needed the internet for my cctv. I was reluctant but rejoined sky and your call centre refused to cancel and persuaded me to move the account to a different address. An address that’s under renovation and empty. There’s something afoot about how all this has been handled and I will be requesting my credit file is amended with your support. Going forth I will update publicly on this thread any success or failures I have with these issues.

    @rpd_pacer @claireroberts01 @virginmedia I left Virgin Media a couple of years ago, after being with them for 20 years. Customer service is non existent, I got sick of trying to deal with Indian call centre staff who barely understood English. The equipment was crap and waiting weeks for engineers was a joke.
