After 20 years of being with @virginmedia and Telewest before that, I’ve finally decided to jump ship. Broadband has been horrendous for a couple of weeks and constant issues. 😔. #TimeforaChange

@virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

@virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

@virginmedia Actually that’s wrong, I received an email to advise that the complaint had been resolved and had to respond saying it hasn’t. What hope is there when you can’t even get a complaint right?

@jamesdgreen02 @virginmedia I've got the same problem. Was told by the faults team that if it wasn't fixed by 11pm last night that it should be fixed by 8pm tonight. Still not fixed at the moment

@virginmedia I’ve already raised a complaint. I spoke to someone in the Stage 2 complaints team who told me it’s being dealt with and, as already mentioned, a manager would call me back at 4.30 which didn’t happen. Can someone please sort this out?

@virginmedia I am trying to access live chat as I have blackspots in house and would like WiFi boosters from Virgin. I have 200 Mbps but am getting only 20mbps in bedroom. Cannot find live chat on sites other than loads of help pages. Really frustrating

@virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

@Mattallwright 2 years on since I have been having trouble with Virgin Media (fingers crossed) they may have now get an uninterrupted supply after charging me late payments more than double my Media prices whilst as a Vulnerable Person they were awful

@virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!

@virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service

@virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12. That’s just today and this has gone on for weeks. Pretty sure you would’ve lost me as a very longstanding customer by the time 28 days is up.

@virginmedia My understanding is that it is affecting a lot of people. I have now worked out how to access my email another way but do strongly feel that virgin media should be looking to resolve this issue ASAP.

@virginmedia so after weeks of unbelievably poor broadband and customer service there was an offer from you to resolve the situation with a web chat at 11am, with a link being provided here. No link. I’m lost for words

@virginmedia Mailbox unavailable.I have spoken to many agents who change my password thinking that will fix it. It hasn't. Have been told I need the fms dept but after holding 3 times for just under 3 hours then to be cut off after 16 days nothing has been resolved. And worse...no one cares

@vmbusiness how do you escalate a complaint in virgin?Neither my order manager nor customer reps can seem to arrange a simple number forward so my business phone lines connect. Neither can they get my broadband working 7 days after the original installation daye

@virginmedia Still nothing from the complaint. Still no one can sort it out. I was given the direct number for the field support centre. Guess what. I can’t get through

@virginmedia I know you can't help me with it because I'm not the account holder. More of a general whinge about not following up on promised actions which, has caused unnecessary worry to an elderly couple.

@virginmedia That your service is **** - I want to change my DD date and tried for two days to speak to someone. Someone needs to ring me to sort out and then I will quite happily pay my bill. But I am NOT wasting anymore time trying to speak to you.

@virginmedia 2/2 I then got email saying we had agreed the complaint was resolved. I’d specifically said it wasn’t resolved. I phoned back. Was told I’d get a phone call within 24 hours. That was three days ago.

@virginmedia Yes, there is an issue and there is an estimate that it will be fixed by 23:05. I signed up for text updates at 14:15 but nothing so far.
