    @virginmedia My wifi is continually really poor. Been reporting it for ages. Nothing gets done. Called and the 5th person, said I had low connectivity to all my devices and put me onto someone else who said he’d completed some upgrades and it would improve. Said he’d call to check, still not

    Wow @virginmedia your services have gone off thu no fault of mine yet I have to wait 6 days for you to fix your faulty equipment!! Cancellation pending due to total lack of customer service! I have been a customer since day one and never have I exp such a lack of cust care

  • AckersStorm

    @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

    @LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.

    Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀

    @LeedsViking @virginmedia Ignore it mate, like their customer services will your question.

  • birdflu_7

    @virginmedia I have numerous emails of my complaint , all of them paying lip service so to speak .

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to your customer service team on 2nd January who advised all issues had been resolved and my sim card was being sent out by royal mail delivery. Even with any postal delays out of your control it seems odd that it hasn't arrived.

  • JoshuaBurns
    Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes, tried last night and your service status page was actually down. Today I checked and it showed no issues, I run the diagnostic and no issues either. Came back up late this afternoon.

  • nathangreen101
    Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  • JoshuaBurns
    Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia on my second week of being a first time customer with you and my connection has been down for nearly 10 hours now. What’s going on?

  • thechilledpanda
    Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported from Bramhall, England

    @virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.

  • JoshuaBurns
    Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I will. 2nd week in and these kind of issues is worrying considering my partner needs a connection to work from home. How long do I have to switch providers is it 30 days?

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  • MCR_ADM
    Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia No they’re helping. But it’s VERYYYY slow. But almost there.

  • Karamonkey1
    Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

    @Morris_Monye And virgin media would even want to compensate you when they have network issues, Infact you will be informed ahead

  • biggle1908
    Oracle (@biggle1908) reported

    Looking for some advice lovely people. For twenty something years I have had broadband from BT and TV from Sky. Sky’s renewal is coming in at over £100 per month and am currently paying £62 for BT which is now painfully slow. I have been looking at Virgin Media for both and this gives me a saving of around £70 per month for much faster broadband. What are people’s experiences with Virgin Media. Thanks in advance.
