  • TylerTowers Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) reported from Gillingham, England

    40 minutes on hold (so far)for @virginmedia’ customer service. Whilst loads of online options to “solve your problem” when you get through on the phone and told they need to transfer my call, you do hope they are on the case! Why did I ever leave Sky - a false economy

  • l_stallworthy Laura S 🦢🦄 (@l_stallworthy) reported from Gillingham, England

    Virgin Media are terrible 🤣 if it’s not the WiFi playing up, it’s the TV lol

  • thebooooooth Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    So @virginmedia lie to you and then don't respond to you or follow up your phone request to make a complaint. Why did i ever leave Sky! The service has been shocking, wouldn't recommend Virgin to anyone

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    This is unacceptable @virginmedia your services especially the customer services despite endless promises still not done #ShabbyServices

  • thebooooooth Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    Problems with @virginmedia continue. Now the wifi is down and no streaming tonight! #shouldnothaveleftsky #FirstWorldProblems

  • LiisaJane LiisaJane'x (@LiisaJane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.

  • M_Morgan94 Mark Morgan (@M_Morgan94) reported from Rochester, England

    Virgin Media estimated fix being 10am tomorrow, well looks like no TV for me 🤡

  • kelly_bingham2 Kelly Bingham (@kelly_bingham2) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia you are an absolute shambles and that’s me being polite .... countless amounts of calls, hours on end of holding on the line and trying to resolve a very simple issue and it is STILL not resolved ..I am beyond frustrated now and will never ever use you again

  • BrazilArteUK BrazilArte (@BrazilArteUK) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I’ve been waiting in all day for a package. For them not to deliver as they couldn’t ring the door bell. @virginmedia please don’t use @YodelOnline anymore they are the worst company ever.

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    @1KolaAdebisi @virginmedia @Ofcom @Ofcom Your intervention is really needed here because @virginmedia has really failed in their dispensing of service #ShabbyServices

  • paulparker81 Paul Parker (@paulparker81) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia experiencing the worst customer service I have ever had. Been a customer for 10+ years but not after today @SkyUK will be gaining another customer instead

  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

  • _SamButler Sam (@_SamButler) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia don’t want to sound like a Karen but your internet has been ******* appalling this week, down yet again what a joke

  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    @1KolaAdebisi Endless calls eating into family time & still no end in sight just being fobbed off @virginmedia this is awful services @Ofcom please help

  • Coxy009 Ben Cox (@Coxy009) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia my internet connection is still being affected by the issue you had a few days ago! This is not good enough and I expect better.

  • ChrisyL1 Chris L (@ChrisyL1) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia Ty for getting back to me, look we have been together for too long to just throw it all away bc of one incident so I will take a look once I’m home from work ... I miss you lots x

  • Hydra_Saiko Hydra ヒドラ (@Hydra_Saiko) reported

    @virginmedia Prices Hikes Connection to Internet down... FOR 9 HOURS COMEON GUYS SOME OF US NEED TO GET WORK DONE TOO!

  • gracecurrie Grace Currie (@gracecurrie) reported

    @virginmedia Yes the area is having issues. But it’s been 24 hours and we need more of an updated than ‘was meant to be fixed yesterday.’ Shocking service

  • AngelaMcGranag3 Angela McGranaghan (@AngelaMcGranag3) reported

    @virginmedia This is awful. My e mails have been down since Friday. Cant get to speak to anyone, letter in to say that prices going up. Been trying to contact Virgin from Friday had enough time to go.

  • BIG_McQuill BIG_McQuill (@BIG_McQuill) reported

    @virginmedia It doesn't matter what I do, it's not going to solve anything due to the problem being out of my control. It doesn't make sense why my Internet would suddenly go down in the middle of the night, for it to currently not come back on + others have said they're having the same issue

  • Adz2891 Adz2891 (@Adz2891) reported

    @virginmedia what a shambles you have become!! Been on hold three times for over an hour to talk about my Broadband Options and have been hung up on everytime. VERY VERY POOR SERVICE LEVELS!!! Now moving to a competitor but still cant get hold of anyone to cancel! #virginmedia

  • FormbyBubble Formby Bubble (@FormbyBubble) reported

    Dear #Formby Bubble: My #VirginMedia went down on Monday. They say the outage may last A WEEK! Anyone else experiencing the same?

  • Aviationlfc jft97 (@Aviationlfc) reported

    @virginmedia Received a text as I say and it stated issue fixed with the outage and the app said fixed now but isn’t for me, guess I need an engineer out to me

  • john_nyack #Idontwantmynameon (@john_nyack) reported

    @virginmedia Your customer service is a joke. I was told I had 2 options which both resulted in the cancellation of your service however at a cost to me of over 500. What a absolute joke. Ombudsman time I think!

  • WydnAA Andy Wright (@WydnAA) reported

    @virginmedia you keep advertising gigabit broadband, but as an existing customer, I can’t see any way to upgrade to this, or to see how much it might cost. Is it only available to new customers?

  • lazzer69 Lazzarus (@lazzer69) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting for the letter to close my account...a week later!!! Customer service an absolute joke!!!
