    @virginmedia your sales team are the biggest bunch of #fraudsters I’ve ever dealt with! Phone us to offer a better package and you have taken our package and completely messed it all up! #CustomerService at it’s worst! If this is how you treat a loyal customer of 14year, I’m off!

  • hungoverdrawn Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

  • JamieMeecham Jamie Meecham🏳️‍🌈♥️ (@JamieMeecham) reported from Canvey Island, England

  • robbiekhan Robbie Khan (@robbiekhan) reported

    @virginmedia Also I would like to add that live chat does not work, no agent ever comes on line, the phone service just endlessly keeps you on hold. Twitter is the only way to get any form of response, yet nobody can confirm what's what and service status does not reflect actual conditions..

  • LiamPlays_ Liam 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇸 (@LiamPlays_) reported

    @virginmedia No mention of construction work or anything like that only said they was busy then we mentioned leaving as they wanted us to pay still and suddenly November was available but it’s still a long time for an existing customer

  • robbiekhan Robbie Khan (@robbiekhan) reported

    @virginmedia Calling this number the automated voice says there is an issue being worked on with my postcode - No ETA because it's "complex". Will I get reimbursed for this loss of service? I cannot connect to work properly due to the connection not being stable as a result of this.

  • cathyablett CathyLouiseWriter (@cathyablett) reported

    @virginmedia The attitude of your customer service and insistence that I pay an early termination fee even though I've moved into temporary accommodation where I cannot take my services even if I wanted to.

  • jemward Jem Ward 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@jemward) reported

    @virginmedia I wish you were as attentive when I still used your services. 6 phone calls from unintelligible individuals on 6 different numbers since Friday, all claiming to be @virginmedia and all hang up when I say they’re annoying me. Make it stop.

  • MartinDriver007 Martin Driver (@MartinDriver007) reported

    @virginmedia Amazon Alexa not connecting either. Definitely have an issue. How do I resolve please

  • MartinDriver007 Martin Driver (@MartinDriver007) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been slow for a few days. Ng10 5eh

  • ian_spoon_ Ian Spoon (@ian_spoon_) reported

    @virginmedia We have two rooms with zero signal

  • paulozzy82 Paul Johnson (@paulozzy82) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, we cant do anything the line is dead with no dialing tone have had a look in the area on your service page and its saying no issues

  • novahob 🔵⚪🔴novahob🏒🎮 (@novahob) reported

    @virginmedia So i raised a complaint and it's fair to say the customer service is awful. It was a stock answer based on the selections i picked. To not even read my text i put and answer those queries is pretty worrying. My guess is that a human didn't even look at this.
