  • chrispsaras
    Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!

  • Andraay
    Andraay Leung (@Andraay) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia having issues with Wi-Fi at home and your websites including the one on service status checks are not loading? As a result I can’t even report the problem.

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I understand that your systems were down last night, which happens, but I’ve been on hold for 30 mins this morning. We have a text to say it’s resolved but it isn’t. I just need to speak to someone please.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @Ofcom can I complain about @virginmedia to yourselves? Had no TV service for nearly a month with no help.

  • SusieWJr
    Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported from Himley, England

    @virginmedia The status checker says intermittent signal in your area. It's disgusting with how much I pay for broadband.

  • Phil_Bonna
    Bonna (@Phil_Bonna) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • CaseyRain
    Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Causing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?

  • k1El_w
    Kiel (@k1El_w) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @YodelOnline your ability to deliver equipment is shocking!!! The customer service you provide is even worse!!!

    @MykeJD1 @virginmedia Gone down for a lot of people apparently

  • laticwolf
    Alex (@laticwolf) reported from Bradmore, England

    @virginmedia good work 👏🏼 issues with WiFi being down constantly as soon as £7.50 monthly bill increases comes in! Currently on hour 5 of no internet and not due to be fixed before 1am 🙃

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • charlwalden
    𝕔𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕠𝕥𝕥𝕖🧸 (@charlwalden) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Sheldon, England

    @virginmedia I don’t think so I’m still getting distorted TV on a few channels it’s frustrating as my complaint never gets recified I’ve spent hours on end trying to get it sorted

    @virginmedia guess what ********* your system is down again. Useless pricks.

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Think we need to call an engineer out anyways, before the outage I was only getting 600mbps max when my package is the 1Gig.

  • petelongrs
    Pete Long (@petelongrs) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I can sympathise with you. 'EDF'? Early disconnection fee. How the actual fuff did that ever get allowed? If people don't pay, turn off their service; no need for an additional made-up fee. When I moved providers, one of these jerks in the call centre claimed he'd get sacked if I didn't tell him which alternative provider I'd chosen. I mean, it's not like I'd been with them for over 25 years or something.

  • Kathlee38871288

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia I have been with Virgin for nearly 2 years not one single problem

  • ACforReformUK
    AndyC (@ACforReformUK) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia This "quality" service is endemic in the UK these days, there's no accountability, if you got £50 for every aborted attempt, you can bet they'd get it done 1st time every time. OFCOM should punish these firms with huge fines and bring in accountability, otherwise this will just go on.

  • DaveWW1877
    Dave (@DaveWW1877) reported

    Has anyone else received horrendous Customer Service from @virginmedia regarding the handling of complaints. ?

  • ScottishAshley
    Ashley (@ScottishAshley) reported

    @virginmedia An engineer was booked and then the visit was cancelled by yourselves as it’s a wider issue apparently. So it’s an issue you should already be aware of as it’s widespread according to media

  • JoannaR47564283
    Joanna Ross (@JoannaR47564283) reported

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia I tried to transfer from Talktalk to Virgin but on the handover day Virgin never turned up after waiting for them all day. Then they told me the service wasn’t available in my area. Went crawling back to Talk talk.

  • IanGee19
    Ian Gee (@IanGee19) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Gutter levels of service are the across the board these days, Ben. Even the Royal College of Surgeons are guilty of second class (or lower), third world standards of service, unless it’s just contemptible, haughty arrogance. @RCSnews #RCSEngland

  • Drscooto
    Scott Osborn (@Drscooto) reported

    @virginmedia Is this still a problem? I just rebooted my STB and now it useless with a CS1010 error.
