@virginmedia That doesn’t explain why you said you could help. I already knew where to ring and told you that I had done that many times, to no avail! I doubt that the matter is in hand and that I will ever get the promised call back,but I will certainly let you know!

@EmmettGraham @virginmedia I actually took the option of “Are You Thinking Of Leaving Us” earlier. I was answered quite quickly, but nothing was resolved. I was, as usual transferred to somebody else and then on hold for 10mins. Still nothing resolved with my issue, Good Luck to you.

@virginmedia Cancelled yesterday. Was happy at £25 a month. Looks like we're off to Vodafone or Plusnet for £22. Shame really, been a decent service.

@EmmettGraham @virginmedia Well, I’m getting nowhere fast, Twitter reply said they could help, but haven’t. Just gave me a no to text to, which won’t accept texts, and a no to ring that I already had. Rung again to no avail. Can’t answer anything about my overdue refund, disgraceful!!

@virginmedia If your internet service to St. Helens could be anything other than complete dogshit for more than five minutes that’d be swell. Since 7:30 this morning, constant outages of internet service. STILL happening at 16:00. Thanks (for nothing). Again.

@virginmedia customers suffering the usual standard of service from virgin Media again. Denial of service should see customers compensated, customer service appears to be the lowest priority.

Yet again no broadband service from @virginmedia and this time it’s going be for 5 days until they can get a technician to us, 5 days?!!?? Singularly the WORST company I’ve ever dealt with. I know I don’t have a lot of followers, but please, if you do follow me, share.

@virginmedia An alternative way to spend 30 hours. After all if you don't think a system is a useless waste of time, your phone system could be just as bad. It's all about what you consider useless I guess. @ofcom @richardbranson

@virginmedia once again you have proved yourselves to be the WORST company I have EVER dealt with. Without broadband for 5 days until you can get your technician to us on Saturday. Your ‘first’ available appointment? This has been caused by YOUR people working in our area.

@RickSacrop @virginmedia Only good thing about virgin are the speed, when it works OK, service is 💩 they pretend they will let you leave, then pester you with calls until you agree a new contact, been with then 23 years and the only time I feel stressed is the fault of virgin, new customers beware

@virginmedia I work in tech; tried different cables, devices and browsers before calling, as calling your CS is 1hour min and like pulling teeth; really it is the worst in the industry there are no lights on any ethernet ports and no connected device sees any port

@virginmedia It would assist me if you could start making your customer service, at least, 100 times better. Does that answer your question?

@virginmedia @virginhelp It's fine during the day but as soon as it's 6pm it's like you start throttling the bandwidth, I work from 6pm till late so this means I literally cannot work. We're paying £74 a month for this **** and it's been going on for years!
