@GarethAllen3 @virginmedia Awful company to deal with. Customer care practically zero. I’m still waiting for a call from 3 weeks ago. How can a comms company have no facility to email them or live chat? Just about to change my services and save some of the £120 a month these jokers charge

@virginmedia I had an account which I closed a few months ago, I then opened a new account at a different address a few months later. When I try to login however my new account isn’t showing as it says that “I’m not with virgin media anymore”. Can’t follow up billing etc

@virginmedia Exactly the same. No WiFi signal. This is the second day. I'm paying for this and I except to be reimbursed. You wouldn't expect to go to the supermarket and not get the groceries you paid for would you?

@virginmedia @carl_kears Have you ever tried speaking to your offshore team? Ask them a question outside their script and you’ve no chance. The last time I tried, 3 different people cut me off. Useless service.

If you don't mind poor quality, low uptime, unhelpful service, zero compassion, clueless technical support, broken promises and sky high prices then @virginmedia is the broadband company for you. For everyone else, go with any other company.

@liambalaggan @virginmedia I've had the router for 2 days with no connection. I think I'll go back to SKY. Their broadband was also poor but at least there was SOME connection!

@virginmedia , is it common to not provide customers with the service they have paid for so early into the 18 month contract? Currently on the “Superfast” 200MB plan and receiving 30MB. Rang your call centre and gave up after an hour on hold.

@virginmedia truly are the shittest most unreliable broadband service, I swear. Oh and great, they're expecting their shitty service to be particularly shitty until 2pm tomorrow. It's not like people need to work from home or anything.

@virginmedia any danger of you providing decent speeds or anybody answering your at your customer service centres? Only been with you 2 weeks and already wanting to leave.

@DementiaUK hi, I'm hoping you can help. I am having problems with @virginmedia. My dad has vascular dementia and has been ripped off tremendously by them. They also won't help him sort his account as he's forgotten his password. They have reduced him into a complete wreck...

@virginmedia why did you promise us broadband by today yet still an engineer has not been out to do the work then to install. This is shocking service.

@Ofcom why are you still allowing virgin media to provide intermittent tv, broadband and phone packages without punishment. In our area over the last two year they have provided an awful service. Constantly going down or intermittent. Horrible customer service.

Nor do @virginmedia give a toss about their customers, so care and compassion also not their thing. Struggling during Covid? @virginmedia will happily do nothing to help you out, it might affect profits if they did anything even remotely kind.

@virginmedia are in my top 5 list for worst companies in Britain. Poor quality, socially and culturally reprehensible. I will give them one positive, social media peeps are nice, ineffectual but nice

(@crazydiscostu) reported
@virginmedia They advised phoning a number and explaining it all over again. To be honest 9 hours on webchat and I'm done. You have my contact details and the details of the problem. If its not amended it'll be a case for trading standards and a new provider. I'm very disappointed
-
FAY
(@cafayracer) reported
@virginmedia That link is the step up from the previous link provided and offers no new information. The mobile number you’ve provided me with is also an automated service for existing customers and does not understand it’s a complaint. Something tells me Virgin avoids receiving complaints…

(@SetSytes) reported
@virginmedia We have been having really inconsistent internet for weeks now. Checking speed gives good results, but my phone and laptop both lose wifi connection often, and my housemate can't play online games half the time. It's all over the place. Never used to be like this.

@virginmedia - no broadband service for over 2 weeks in central London. Zero costumer service, not one email, nor text, nor call to inform us of the general outage/keep us updated.

@virginmedia sick of the service you offer, every time I need it there’s issues, your Wi-Fi has gone downhill and to say the issues will be fixed at around midnight is useless to anyone

(@drewwalker760) reported
@virginmedia It's rendered my Netflix, Amazon prime and entire home music center completely useless. I'm more upset that whatever the issue is still isn't fixed and when trying to book an engineer it gave me 1 date this month which is of no use

@virginmedia Look. We are now a month on and installation pushed back to 29/10 Surely someone can do something? Your customer service is rubbish
