@virginmedia have got to be the worst network providers ever. 10 times worse than @Sky10mbps which is saying something - 2 months in and haven’t got a clue what they are doing 🤬😡

@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.

@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 having issues with connectivity & slow speed. I'm working from home & this is causing me a LOT of stress. I still have targets. Hard to do when the internet is crawling & up & down like a yoyo. Been like this for 2 weeks. Diagnostics say no problem 😥😭

@virginmedia I have been unable to access my Blueyonder e mail for 2 weeks now. I have tried the recommended fixes to no Avila and am told I might wait for an hour to have someone answer my call. £80 a month for a broken service is a bit on the steep side

@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.

@JacobAlderHam @virginmedia Shocking isn’t it mate, I’ve not been able to use streaming devices or gaming devices for a few weeks without constant spikes and buffering. I pay for 200 down and receive about 40... so much packet loss. Shambles.

Luke
(@LukeusJ) reported
@virginmedia I had no issue waiting for a permit. It takes as long as it takes. But why did it take so long to apply for it and why did it take several phone calls and contact with the area manager in order to get it applied for. That’s my issue really bad communication and customer service.
-
Luke
(@LukeusJ) reported
@virginmedia And then why cancel appointments with no explanation? It has happened time and time again. As I said most recent being 1st April. After the permit was obtained and the groundwork on the road was done. Resulting in an even longer wait.

@virginmedia I can't sit looking at my phone all day. I've tried ringing you and passed around in circles. I got the text service when I rang. I can't hear my text message tone. I CAN hear my phone ring and I CAN talk on the phone.

@coopukinsurance For the record, both the initial person I spoke to and their manager seemed like nice people but they have been in no way empowered to give useful customer service. You actually look bad next to @virginmedia which is honestly bizarre.

Amy Holland
(@_amylholland) reported
@virginmedia But there household had an account? My grandma can’t help the sudden passing of my grandad you’d think you’d just transfer it and not apply a double bill in the first place! Won’t they have paid this when they set their account up? Now your enforcing she has to set up a new one?

@Luciachi91 @virginmedia Request to raise a formal complaint through the complaints department don't go through customer service as they would lie and say a complaint was raised. Had this issue many years ago.
