    Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia are up there with the worst companies for customer service. Their IVR is infuriating, they hang up on you when you do manage to get through and then tell you there is no way to make a complaint ! @Ofcom do you regulate these clowns 🤡

    @Riz1Rehman @shuhel_miah86 @virginmedia They charge enough through the nose for a rubbish service. Might as well use pigeon post. It would be faster

    @virginmedia. It's getting ridiculous that my Internet has been jumping up and down like a skipping rope. LS8. I can't get anything done due to no connection. I do not want to use my mobile data anymore. Please sort this.

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  • rywilnot
    Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported from Darton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

    @virginmedia I was moving house they said the bill would be different for the first three months, then back to normal, however apparently I agreed to a new contract @ £14 extra per month, I’d only had my previous contract for 6 months so why would I do this, oh and the house move was cancel

  • SaffsAI
    Bam Bam (@SaffsAI) reported from Bradford, England

    Why companies like @virginmedia use WhatsApp support I do not know. The system makes you wait an hour, if you don't respond in 10 minutes, it kicks you off the chat just to make you wait again

    @306notout @virginmedia @VodafoneUK Shame you've not got Connect Fibre Matt (UK call centre), just moved to them with 1Gb up and down, and going over to Sky Ultra for TV in a couple of weeks - I know its not always about money, but £50 less per month is worth it.

  • CorkinDawn
    dawnieC (@CorkinDawn) reported

    @virginmedia I already said i did status check which is estimating 5.08pm fix. My point was text says should be fixed shortly. I dont consider 9hours being shortly. Why does this happen more often now? You are no longer reliable any more 🙁

  • ScouseBouncy
    Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reported

    So fed with @virginmedia. The sky sports plus system has not been working for over a week and they have done nothing to fix it! Starts playing and then crashes, works on the crappy stream box but the quality is poor, works via the apps and website but not on the normal box!

    VB (@Vincent2455) reported

    Received a text from @virginmedia asking me to return an unused device or they will charge me for something I did not request. Made the mistake of calling for address stickers for the return item. Big mistake!! No support! No idea. No stickers. How will this play out in court!!

    Love tech like this WAS-110 XGS-PON SFP is a a module that allows you to bypass most USA/CA routers (AT&T's BGW320, Virgin Media's Hub 5X, or Bell's Giga Hub) by copying info from your router to this module and insert into a third party router or media convert from SFP to Ethernet to a router Get better stability, performance, and stronger QoS settings / firewall etc compared to the default setup I hope 1 day i find someone that needs this done
