-
Peter Fudge 💙 (@statusquo44) reported from Canvey Island, England@leonagraham @virginmedia Yes, the issue is you’re being denied internet access 👍
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@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?
-
Michael Buckley (@MikeBuckley2) reported from Gillingham, England@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
-
chris cox (@coxychris) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia why are no one answering your lines all I wanna do is cancel my package
-
Penny Rolfe nee Acres (@wonky1961) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@MartinSLewis Virgin Media wifi been unstable since June 2020. Virgin Media never resolved the problem caused me to lose hundreds of £'s. Made me lose my PIP. Virgin made me pay double because they kept charging me twice most months. They've made me lose half my PC Guarantee
-
Colin Nickless (@NicklessColin) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia broadband down again in Southend. Had to pay for a BT WiFi day pass so my wife can continue working from home.
-
Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@virginmedia Sort it out Virgin IT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!!!! Can’t even log on to get service updates 😡😡😡
-
Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia Still @virginmedia can’t get anything right!! Still you screw everything up and provide really bad customer service @BBCWatchdog
-
Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, EnglandAnyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈
-
James Young (@jamesrfyoung) reported from Wickford, England@virginmedia your internet has been rubbish recently with varying speeds as low as 5mb 1 minute then 95mb the next! Now it’s gone down completely! On top of not being able to speak with anyone I don’t feel that your service is worth it! #rubbishservice
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@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
-
Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I raised the complaint on 14/7 and I’ve heard nothing
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@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?
-
Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, EnglandWhy is it every companies customer service line is so crap and does not want to help in any way shape or form #curryspcworld #virginmedia @BBCWatchdog
-
Andrew Owen (@owensirons93) reported from Corringham, England@virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed
-
Sarah Bennett (@sarahhben) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia Our internet is down in ME8 area (Parkwood) status check says ‘no known issues’
-
Kim Baker was Lovett (@Kimlovett) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia what’s happened to your customer services? I have stayed with you for years now need your help, can’t log into my account need your help and holding forever on the phone ....
