  • natsc0tt N A T A L I E👼🏼 (@natsc0tt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    Call me a Karen but lol imagine paying £80 a month to be getting 1mb of internet and you can barely contact them and when you do they hang up on you🥴 #virginmedia @virginmedia is a piece of utter **** and is a disgrace of a company😤

  • booksbythewoods booksbythewoods (@booksbythewoods) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Morning, it's still not working I'm afraid. Same situation as yesterday

  • liamharries Cllr Liam Harries 🔶 (@liamharries) reported from Quedgeley, England

    @vmbusinesshelp how can you claim to have a 24/7 fault support hotline if every time I call i either get cut off or after 5-10 mins of hold music I get a dial tone then silence? How can it be that @vmbusiness has even worse customer service and reliability than @virginmedia?

  • chunfkong The Mayflower (@chunfkong) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem in GL51 area, our WiFi & landline are totally down!

  • liamharries Cllr Liam Harries 🔶 (@liamharries) reported from Quedgeley, England

    @vmbusinesshelp how can you claim to have a 24/7 fault support hotline if every time I call i either get cut off or after 5-10 mins of hold music I get a dial tone then silence? How can it be that VMBusiness has even worse customer service and reliability than residential?

  • RayWebpro04 Ray (@RayWebpro04) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia awful customer service for Virgin Mobile account holders, only online messaging and no one to talk too. And they don’t read the text, just keep palming you off!

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia I should have recognised that is the number I’ve been calling. Other than an online test it just leads you around in circles. No further forward, no fix, just a little more cheesed off. Really disappointing.

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Still no contact and TV’s still not providing all the services I’m paying for, do you have any customer service? #virgincomplaint

  • jamierudge Jamie (@jamierudge) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia your V6 box is so unreliable! Random picture breakups, loss of signal, audio out of sync... Makes me want move to another provider! 😠

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia You asked me to keep you posted, I’ve had no response. It certainly appears to be a problem with the hub because the WiFi is not really performing well. I’ve got three TiVo boxes and a C6 + broadband and it seems no one cares. Quite poor.

  • joe_joeharper Joe Harper (@joe_joeharper) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @Ofcom you should really investigate how @virginmedia Von people into thinking they’re on a rolling contract and then hit you with a £200 charge when you try to cancel.

  • Chopperb Chris B (@Chopperb) reported from Stroud, England

    Oooo so virgin sport has been acquired Seems to be the strategy of virgin. Virgin media might well be next but the airline will never be sold

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia It’s now Thursday, I’ve waited as you said and no response from the text. No longer any response from you? At a loss, serious money handed over every month and zero service. #virgincomplaint

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia On the basis that I can’t get through to anyone in Virgin and the online help isn’t helping, will anyone respond to my Tweet of 15 hours ago?

  • natsc0tt N A T A L I E👼🏼 (@natsc0tt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia bunch of absolute scammers. Paying £80 a month for nothing. Constantly using 4g on our phones as the internet is getting less than 1mb of internet, our home security is constantly off because of this. Phone gets put down when we call for help. Absolute joke.

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia DC, I texted that message to them on Sunday as you requested, it’s now Wednesday. They have not responded. Do I have to stop paying to get some help? Please tell me what to do. #virgincomplaint

  • booksbythewoods booksbythewoods (@booksbythewoods) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia It says there's an issue with TV but broadband is fine, but our issue is with our broadband. I've rebooted the rooter again and no change

  • joe_joeharper Joe Harper (@joe_joeharper) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia love lying about putting you on a rolling contract and then hitting you with a £200 pound cancellation fee when you try to cancel after you’re forced to move home. Nice work!

  • DrPaulAtkinson Dr Paul Atkinson (@DrPaulAtkinson) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @terrizmo @vmbusiness This was yesterday. Your faults team were unhelpful when I finally got through after nearly an hour on hold. The significant outage seems to be well known but not by the twitter team who still have an outage from June pinned to this account!!

  • CCBUTTERY its#getting#ridiculous (@CCBUTTERY) reported

    @virginmedia I want to know what actually happened to crash the service. Not just engineers have dealt with it......dealt with what....

  • sw61964 Mike Williams (@sw61964) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia your answers are always the same. I suppose the critical question is when is the service going to get to a point when it’s more reliable. I have issues with availability and speed Going forwards is VM a service me and my family can rely on?

  • jammy_slack James (@jammy_slack) reported

    @bostockk97 @virginmedia Mate I’m not surprised at all I’ve read no end of things online where they’ve done same to other folk and kept charging them. How ******** they get away with it I’ll never know😡
