  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia An engineer will be sent on Saturday. Second one in a week. Trying to use the chat function to load get a complaint and it disconnects. The agents do not seem keen on taking a complaint. I have been happish with tservice for few years now but it has deteriorated in last 6 weeks

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Well surprise surprise. The WiFi is down again. 6 weeks in a row. Call Centre hing yo when passing my call to a manager. Poor service. This is now unacceptable. How do I complain (other than @Ofcom) about this poor service. Why is the service so awful now.

  • lovetosleepy Maria Marchant, MBACP (@lovetosleepy) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia No. Nothing. There never is. It’s become part of life but it’s really not good enough. I can see from other customer complaints that I am not alone.

  • bazzau73 🍩🍩🍩Barrie⚽⚽⚽ (@bazzau73) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Not sure what this will do. There has been regular outages in the area for over a week. Your call centre told me today that this should now be fixed and will not reoccur. We will see if this is the case when the service eventually returns.

  • _Jaimin_ Jaimin (@_Jaimin_) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Pretty certain #virginmedia is the worst ISP there is around! Absolutely awful and disgraceful service.Shocking speeds wireless and wired.Never used to be as bad as this. Will be asking for an early ter- mination to my contract as I am not even getting the promised minimum speed.

  • CraigyBEsq Craigy B (@CraigyBEsq) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s kinda Improved. But when paying for M350 fibre broadband plus 2 boosters...I don’t expect this to happen. I just came from BT & not once in 3 years with them did I have any system issues nor need boosters

  • keith319 Keith (@keith319) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Would have been useful a week ago, but as of now, service is as it should be. Been very patchy over the last week though, so don’t know what’s causing this.

  • Ashirane Ayako (@Ashirane) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia it’s been three days we’re experiencing broadband and TV service. People are working remotely and heavily rely on the virtual communications!!!

  • bazzau73 🍩🍩🍩Barrie⚽⚽⚽ (@bazzau73) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia And its gone again. Really is an awful service. Your status page is not in real time as i speak to your operators who confirm an outage but your status page says everything is fine

  • brazenprods 🏍 brazen productions- jules hussey 🏍 (@brazenprods) reported from Camberwell, England

    Hello @virginmedia you had engineers in the street this am and not my connection gone and I am guest speaker on a one hour webinar with @DANC_MANC in two hours. This happens way too often and you never get it sorted.

  • dadzoola dadzoola (@dadzoola) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia @AnitaaAnderson Have to say, our experience of Virgin Media was of extraordinarily poor customer service. I generally have sympathy for staff working in contact centres, but with Virgin, it seemed as though a culture of contempt and arrogance was hopelessly embedded in it's corporate DNA.

  • Janine_Moulton Janine Moulton (@Janine_Moulton) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia absolutely the worst and most unprofessional unhelpful and disgusting company when it comes to customer care and service

  • boilourdenim 𝖘𝖍𝖔𝖗𝖙 𝖐𝖎𝖓𝖌 🦖 (@boilourdenim) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia haven't had internet for a couple of hours and your website sends me round in circles, please help.

  • Janine_Moulton Janine Moulton (@Janine_Moulton) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Their customer advisors give the wrong information and there is no accountability. The absolute worst disgusting unprofessional and unhelpful customer care and service.

  • CraigyBEsq Craigy B (@CraigyBEsq) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @spenge74 @virginmedia Cheers. Downloading tgAt now. At my last place I had BT and no issues but when I moved no phone line so went str8 to virgin but somedays it’s real slow. Driving me to drink 🤣🤣🤣

  • gavJball Gavin Ball (@gavJball) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia any issues in Bexleyheath, DA7. No internet. Disappeared at 12:30 today

  • luke_strollo black lives matter (@luke_strollo) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia hey I've tried calling to cancel my 12 month contract as it's finished soon but I have to wait on hold for ages (I understand there are less call centres open), is there any other way I can close my contract without being stuck on hold for ages

  • AmbroseBarnaby 🏳️‍🌈 Barnaby and Chris🌍 (@AmbroseBarnaby) reported from Richmond, England

    Typical No Virgin Media again but I know it’s not just me as thousands of people on here seem to have same issues typical.

  • _Jaimin_ Jaimin (@_Jaimin_) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Pretty certain #virginmedia is the worst ISP there is around! Absolutely awful and disgraceful server. Shocking speeds wireless and wired. Never used to be as bad as this. Will be asking for an early termination to my contract as I am not even getting the promised minimum speed.

  • phoeberodwell Phoebe (@phoeberodwell) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia once again having issues with the WiFi - apparently no problem in the area but it's continually dropping out, had a 30min outage this morning. Flatmate *trying* to work from home!

  • KAH___94 KH. (@KAH___94) reported

    @01_rehan @virginmedia I left them yesterday. Shocking customer service and extortionate prices - not worth the service whatsoever

  • KWeebz Kate Wheable (@KWeebz) reported

    @virginmedia Any chance you can up your customer service skills? Can't get through by phone, you say you'll reply in 28 days. Not good for someone who has to reset their tivo and router everyday. We want to leave!

  • latnl8rzdude1 John (@latnl8rzdude1) reported

    @virginmedia Ive just spent 40mins in a queue. Your service doesn't service.

  • accountantsitc Accountantsitc (@accountantsitc) reported

    @virginmedia John , it’s not just virgin that’s busier. I’m an accountant , I have to do furlough claims, learn tonnes of new legislation for Covid .I don’t have a call centre or staff members to help and take my calls . I can’t sit on phone for hours with no response to leave !

  • billatnapier Prof B Buchanan OBE (@billatnapier) reported

    Beware of the Premier Sports add-on in Virgin Media ... you think you are just adding a subscription and can cancel at any time ... but it gets added to your package ... and bundle up as "a discount" ... and when you try to cancel it on it own ... it costs you more.

  • Ash_Harveyradio Ashley Harvey (@Ash_Harveyradio) reported

    My #Tivobox keeps resetting itself and freezes- why - help @virginmedia -the engineer came out before Xmas to fix it. I am recovering from #COVID and this is not helping in my recovery. On the phone along time #CustomerService

  • scottbrowne1981 Scott Browne (@scottbrowne1981) reported

    @virginmedia 48hrs later nah am good ta your response time is almost as slow as your broadband speeds

  • mikop90 Michael (@mikop90) reported

    @virginmedia I waited two hours on the phone last week to cancel the account. Is there no way someone can schedule a time to contact me?

  • ConcreteJoe1 Concretejoe1 (@ConcreteJoe1) reported

    @virginmedia Interesting that after cancelling my contract, your retention team added ‘change of circumstances’ as the reason rather than your failure to provide a consistent WiFi. Does this help your statistics??

  • melmel978 mel (@melmel978) reported

    @virginmedia I've hardly had any internet through the whole of lockdown. Not been able to speak to a human even one time. Send me a link but when I wait 24 hours the link expires. Your service is shocking. These times are hard enough without your company making my life harder!!!
