    Michael Edwards (@MENorthAffinity) reported from Leeds, England

    It feels like @virginmedia and @VodafoneUK are having some weird competition to decide who has the most inept and frustrating customer experience competition. No one is perfect but to be this consistently terrible is almost admirable.

    @virginmedia It’s been on and off for weeks. Nothing is being done quickly enough. Hope you will be compensating customers for the loss of service !

    @virginmedia Are you serious, 24 hrs on chat being sent from pillar to post, to every area of virgin, repeatedly asked for account number when I don't have not will ever want to be a customer

  • Gav_Leaf
    Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported from Castleford, England

    Thanks @virginmedia Glad to know your levels of service are still going to be this utterly dire to justify pumping my price up an extra £15 a month!

    @virginmedia what an absolute **** show of a company. My wife renewed her sim only contract last month & was offered an iPad as a free gift as a loyal customer. 5 times she was sent new iPhone 14,s by mistake. She went out of her way to return them all with the incentive of 1/2

    @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

    Porrohman (@AndyHiggs1) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @sky_support We have the full Sky Sports package on our Virgin Media box. How much would the cost come down by us getting rid of the F1 channel as I prefer watching paint dry. If it's worth it the golf one could go the same way as I only watch the football and cricket ? Ta

    @vmbusiness Have we got any updates on this outage please? #Timeismoney #business

  • badlydrawnroy
    Roy (@badlydrawnroy) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia There were no outages in the area, every time I tried to use the system to fix the problem an error or maintenence page came up. Tried logging into the router to fix and the tools were all broken. Finally an hour later it just came back on by itself.

    Christine Pilkington (@Pilki) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia Nothing! I'd be a very rich lady with all the apologies I've had in the last few 7 days, apologies doesn't get my service back does it?!

    @RestartCarl @virginmedia BT are just as bad.

  • Gav_Leaf
    Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported from Castleford, England

    @virginmedia £55 a month JUST for Internet from April? Been a customer for over 20 years when it was £20 a month. Loyalty just gets you taken advantage of I guess.

  • Mcollinson72
    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

    The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia do you care to give an update regarding services being down in the WF1 area of Wakefield? You estimate keeps changing which is becoming really annoying!! Literally 1000s of households without an Internet connection. #wakefield #poorservice

    @SGiangregorio @virginmedia Terrible for the money they charge people. No doubt they’ll be happy enough increase your bill though at the end of the year

    @virginmedia @GlitteringAngel Katie shouldn't have to send you a DM, just treat loyalty with some respect and give people discounts the longer they stay with you instead of giving newbies better deals than long standing customers

  • donna2904
    Donna Tudor (@donna2904) reported

    @FuzziePieRat @virginmedia I’ve had the same issues. Given 30 days notice after 19 years as a customer. They kept offering me things I didn’t want. Three hours on chat to give my notice as they were ignoring me.

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    Day 4 of poor followed by NO broadband service from good old @virginmedia. Fix now predicted to be by 29/4/26😡 Worryingly, none of their previous predictions have proved accurate Shocking and unacceptable performance #GetItSorted

    @virginmedia your agents are rude calling me to try and retain me as a customer but speaking to me in a patronising manner!

    @virginmedia VM r an absolute joke I am trying 2 switch back 2 sky & there is delay with the new broadband but VM won’t allow me 2 cancel the TV part & just keep broadband till sorted (end of my contract) & going 2 charge me ridiculous amount of £ - WONT EVER B HVING VM AGAIN

  • graham69717
    Bill Graham (@graham69717) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia Only way to get good service is to use BT/Open Reach as provider; but you will pay! I have had Shell, TalkTalk and now Utility Warehouse as my contract changed hands. All equally poor in their own way. At last house, in the middle of nowhere, had BT, and never had a problem.

    @justarieldotcom @virginmedia AI happened. Then no one cared about the service as long as DD was paid on time.
