Shumailla (@szdar) reported from Harrow Weald, England
@virginmedia sick to death of this absolutely rubbish WiFi. Rebooted several times, phoned your team, even installed a new router. Nothing seems to improve it and you supposedly pride yourself on being the best. Please fix this issue.

Paul (@paulpavli) reported from Slough, England
@virginmedia Been trying to speak to someone the last two day. Was told yesterday (when I did get through) that broadband was ok ( clearly it wasn’t) and that someone would escalate and call back today... No call today and broadband slow and intermittent again, has been for 4 weeks now, help!

Rita capaldo (@rita_capaldo) reported from Camden Town, England
@virginmedia I have been told that the issue will be fixed this morning at 9 but that’s not the case can you please check?

Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Barnet, England
@virginmedia Got through on text: they offered to cancel the increase & restore the £44 price, but refused to match the £40 as it’s “only for new customers”! They referred me to Retentions, but they have now withdrawn even that offer & insist I must pay the full £47.50! Just unbelievable!

@virginmedia I’ve been here 10 days .. I’m paying for a service that you are not providing whilst trying to work from home . Please just provide that rather than promised and vague fix it dates

Hi @virginmedia we rent a property with virgin fibre, download speed is fast but upload very low. I can’t login to account as it’s not mine. Suggestions?

@virginmedia Still not been able to get through to the support team 😢

Elise Tapper (@elisetx) reported from Barnet, England
@virginmedia your service is AWFUL!! Been cut off twice and my problems are still not solved 😡
-
fabiano (@fabparra) reported from Brentford, England
@virginmedia 4 days??!!!! What about 2 people doing home office?! Is Virgin Media pay for it?! I understand technical issues happen, but I don’t understand incompetence to deal with problemas. Virgin Media is a expensive service and it’s unacceptable this lack of good service to its customers
-
Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Barnet, England
@virginmedia Finally got through to Retentions by phone & unlike their text service they were helpful & resolved it with an improved offer - something the text people insisted was impossible & that nobody else would be able to do more. Awful to think others will be ripped off by this attitude

Emma Hoyle (@OohLookItsEmma) reported from London, England
@virginmedia a conundrum. If I call your service centre to cancel my service I get routed to the website that doesn’t allow me to cancel or I get routed through to a team that don’t answer. Do I just cancel my direct debit? Then at least you’ll know I’m not longer your customer.

Gemma Jarrett (@gemmajarrett) reported from London, England
@virginmedia I'm trying to get hold of someone to talk about my account and service but can't get through to anyone - how can I talk to someone?
-
Paul (@paulpavli) reported from Slough, England
@virginmedia All this was done yesterday, no help. Would like to chat to someone to discuss the router. Funny thing is prices have just gone up and we have the worse coverage ever!
-
fabiano (@fabparra) reported from Brentford, England
@virginmedia I’ve tried the basics and First time I called customer services the message was “we are very busy at the moment, please try again later” and later I waited 30min to speak to someone who didn’t sort the problem out. Instead she told me the technician will visit in 4 days!!! What??

Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England
@virginmedia It’s very usual for Virgin in Hampstead but would be nice if you were in a bigger hurry to fix it , especially when we are all working from home
-
Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported from Harrow Weald, England
@virginmedia We're expecting an engineer visit between 4 and 7pm today. It's 5pm now and no sign yet. Getting dark outside. If it's not fixed this time, we will have to think about switching to another service supplier, which we really don't want to do.

@virginmedia you have without doubt the the worst internet service going, your customer service is shocking !!! I spent over 12 hours on the customer service chat going around and around only to have them terminate the conversation. Next day "how can we help"

@virginmedia I have already raised a complain but it doesn’t help that my daughter is at home not able to study.

@virginmedia I didn’t get the adapter, I rang customer services last night to tell them and was told that would be sent out to me. Told I would receive confirmation of that but just received an email today saying my account is ready for a phone upgrade yet.
-
David Fauvrelle (@magicfauvrelle) reported
@virginmedia Waiting all day today for Engineers to turn up. No ones turned up. Calling your customers service number is useless to get an ETA. Are they still coming? Its obviously night time not sure how your engineers going to do exterior work at night. Had organise access for them.

Viv Haig (@vivhaig) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland
@virginmedia Yes I’ve done all of that and my phone is saying ‘Check phone line’. My land line has been off since last Friday. Ever since it was swapped over to your fibre network and the new adapter fitted to the back of the router. I’m paying for a service I’m not receiving.

Jayne (@mejuliemcspirit) reported
@virginmedia This is not good customer service. I asked for a third sim to be sent by a different delivery company or by recorded to reach me on saturday. I do not feel that is impossible. I was told no

Kieron Francis (@FullyScouser) reported
@virginmedia The internet in our house has began to regularly cut out and refuse to reconnect for hours at a time. As someone who works from home but doesn't own the Internet box, what can I do? (We've done all the standard restart, power off for 30 secs stuff)
