    @virginmedia take a look at the replies to your Facebook ads. Virtually every comment the same patchy broadband connection and absolute dog **** customer service

  • Dom_Priest94 DOM PRIEST (@Dom_Priest94) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia chronic customer service !

  • lestatsmum rayofsunshine 💙 (@lestatsmum) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia do you have a number or email so I cancel mobile insurance?

  • henry_1664 Andrew Grove (@henry_1664) reported from Birmingham, England

    Can anyone tell me how you get @virginmedia to respond to and deal with complaints? I am at the end of my tether with them! I have raised 4 complaints now and they have unsatisfactorily responded to 1 which I called back about to keep the complaint open only for them to close...

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It was a five minute fix, but she lost one month of TV access as a result. She’s a nurse so arranging a daytime appointment took a while because of her work patterns. It’s her first home of her own and I felt she had been treated in a less than respectable manner.

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why has my mobile signal strength dropped now Virgin Mobile is piggybacking off Vodafone? Used to be full strength when you used EE.

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @davesumnersmith @virginmedia I have realised that talking to Twitter teams is of limited value. The responses are scripted and when they’re painted into a corner, they just stop responding. Customer Service has become a contradiction in terms. My daughter has had similar experiences with Virgin Media.

  • DorisLee1966 Judy Lee (@DorisLee1966) reported from Dudley, England

    @theMrsH89 @virginmedia l upgraded my internet with Virgin and it’s dreadful. The process still isn’t sorted out lm being charged incorrectly and it won’t be put right until complaints sort it out. I’m still waiting for complaints the service for broadband and the customer is poor and very stressful

  • DorisLee1966 Judy Lee (@DorisLee1966) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia The first agent was so rude the second very helpful said she hoped she had sorted the dates of my contract and the bill. But as yet the bill for March hasn’t changed l have no idea what is happening with the complaints. I’m so worn down by it all.

  • MartinClarke165 Martin Clarke (@MartinClarke165) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No service still. Outrageous. No customer support. Online mths all day. Great advert for Virgin. The most reliable broadband provider #poorservice

  • leeharris85 lee harris (@leeharris85) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried calling got through being on hold for 30 minutes waiting to speak to a manager as I’ve been told I need to pay for something others have free and been cut out again!!!

  • DorisLee1966 Judy Lee (@DorisLee1966) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called and called l’ve used the chat line numerous times. A agent opened a complaint in early feb l received a letter saying all sorted when it wasn’t there are 2 complaints outstanding and my accounts are still wrong.

  • ChloeHolland_ox Chloe (@ChloeHolland_ox) reported from Aldridge, England

    Sick of having issues with my Wi-Fi!! At least a couple times a day the router starts flashing and won’t connect anyone in my house to it! Internet speeds are slow all the time 😡 @virginmedia sort it out

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia My daughter had to make 2 phone calls to your customer service department to resolve a problem with her new TV box in November last year. She was almost 2 hours on the phone & then an engineer visit solved the problem. Engineer admitted the setup instructions were at fault.

  • psicorps2000 David H-T 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇳🇴🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@psicorps2000) reported from Solihull, England

    Anybody in B37 with a @virginmedia box having problems with their boxes rebooting? Ours has done it twice without warning this evening.

  • DagnallChris chris dagnall (@DagnallChris) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia my wifi is constantly going down, it's happened 4 times today, so frustration. Why do I pay £74 pound a month for this service!? Really thinking of switching to @SkyUK

  • alex_bann Alex Bann (@alex_bann) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Can anyone help please? New V6 box has been broken for about a month and have tried to call to get fixed/replaced but to no avail.

  • ThatNeilFleming neil fleming (@ThatNeilFleming) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia That might require quite an extensive overall of your infrastructure and servers however you could maybe start by answering the telephone - you are a telecoms company. Or does customer service fly out the window once the direct debits are set up?

  • leeharris85 lee harris (@leeharris85) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia customer service as good as ever told I’m being put through to another team.... then cut off

  • NannieHelen Helen Croft (@NannieHelen) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia It’s the WIFi and what can you do about it? I’ve been a customer for many many years and this issue is causing aggravation. Surely I should expect uninterrupted service all day every day. It’s not cheap either is it??

  • Justcallmelewis Lewis (@Justcallmelewis) reported

    @virginmedia All my connections are wired, i have tried rebooting the hub but makes no difference. According to status check it says there is no issue in my area but clearly there is seeing as there is reports else where.

  • raining_bows Flint Fredstone🏳️‍🌈🇿🇦 (@raining_bows) reported

    @msootycat @virginmedia I too am having this issue the last while, just now I was getting between 40-120, I cant seem to get @virginmedia to believe me, just keep getting told to check the status page, I have, and also reset everything, even back to factory settings, 😫

  • ibi2001uk Ibi (@ibi2001uk) reported

    @virginmedia It is with my broadband and I have provided my complaints reference number. The only thing you guys are good at is responding to tweet and doing absolute nothing for the customer after that. Check my previous messages and do the needful.

  • Merse1987 Ricky Sharp (@Merse1987) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam your Internet has been down all day,I've had to buy extra data for my daughters phone as we can't use the WiFi. I've contacted you but had no response. And to think we left @virginmedia for you as you was ment to be better.

  • MrGrowSome1 MrGrowSome (@MrGrowSome1) reported

    @virginmedia the first time they told me they fixed the issue, which they didnt. the second time they filed a complaint. wasnt resolved. and the other times i got hit with the "there is congestion in your area" which is really great but im paying stupid money for a service which isnt working.

  • catndog2012 catherine (@catndog2012) reported

    @virginmedia It came from the same number as your usual messages about my mobile phone account. It stated that there was a problem with my billing details and that I needed to update them via the link included in the message.

  • winnybago Lee Winn (@winnybago) reported

    @virginmedia Yet again another night with only 3mb download speed when paying for 100+ in Al2 postcode. What exactly is the problem and when is it going to be sorted! Happens every night between 8pm and 12am
