@lxwissssss @MartinEdition @virginmedia Mine is excellent once they replaced the wiring because it was old and now mine never goes off and it’s super fast! The English call centres are great but the Indian and Philippines ones are really bad I avoid them because they just read off scripts!

@virginmedia hi a few folks on our street keep experiencing drop outs of WiFi signal in the middle of the working week, a few of them have made contact with you but no issues are being found, and you don’t seem to be able to help? but there is clearly an issue?

What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

@virginmedia And it has just cut out again and your bot via the number above just said restart the router and put the phone down on me. Slightly concerned that it lasted 5 days again and decided to come back to disconnecting?

@virginmedia I called the help line and a bot told me to restart my router twice and then proceeded to end the call. Little fed up

@virginmedia Then when transferred to ‘customer care’ so that I could complain and seek compensation, I waited another 20mins and was eventually cut off without speaking to anyone.

. @virginmedia rang virgin last week to move house. You've done the external install yesterday but haven't turned up for internal install today. Tried to log into my account and it says my package is cancelled no options for support at all. Called and hung up on before answer.

@virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

@virginmedia @virginmedia service from you has been poor for months - missing the footie is just the last straw. Kindly send an engineer to fix our broadband - the wires at the wall outside are exposed and when we test each day our speeds are below 20MB/s when we are paying for 100+ Thank you

@BBCRedButton I don't think your red button service is working on @virginmedia. It's brings up the iPlayer but no live stuff like the springwatch webcams

@KGthaComedian Virgin media are possibly the most hideous company you will ever have to deal with. Robbing, rude liars. Until you come on Twitter and they want to be your best friend.

@virginmedia I have issues at least once a week and I’m always told about work in my area, this is not an issue on my end as I have run through the procedures you send over about 6 times, unfortunately in the area I live there are little in way of alternatives otherwise I’d already have left

Dennis Baldwin
(@DennyBaldwin) reported
@virginmedia Not from what they have been told but we were told by yourselves to give them a date which you provided to cancel and it would be switched over and then it was installed last Friday and still haven’t had anything about the old number being transferred

@MikeEllis65 @virginmedia Virgin customer service is appalling, thankfully they closed the shop in my town, the staff there were downright insulting, literally. I use Virgin for broadband and have no problem service since I use ethernet, their wifi is completely useless and they don't care!

@virginmedia how do I complain? I’ve had terrible customer service when I first tried to open up a phone contract on the 21st March Only to be lied to, hung up on and spoken to like I’m a child and when I asked to speak to someone senior was told I wouldn’t be able to? Ridiculous
