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

    @virginmedia care to explain why a member of staff felt that hanging up on a customer complaining about their broadband is acceptable? And now I’m stuck on hold AGAIN to solve my issue.

  • 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

  • BikerSnep BikerSnep (@BikerSnep) reported

    @virginmedia Generically 24 hours, its since been up n down randomly

  • Lee_AntonySmith Lee Antony Smith (@Lee_AntonySmith) reported

    @virginmedia been waiting 24 hours to reach a human, shocking service, how can I reach someone to fix my account?

  • NigelClark78 Nigel Clark (@NigelClark78) reported

    @virginmedia I am not at home at the moment just the family advising it's still not working. This has only happened since first fault from your side happened yesterday. No cause from my side. And it's been off ever since even though it has been updated twice to say no longer fault in area

  • damon_hull Damon Hull (@damon_hull) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down yet again. 3rd day of disruption in my area and when it does work its nowhere near the speed I should be getting. Not great when my contract is due for renewal next month. Might have to shop around

  • jamesthejoiner James Riley (@jamesthejoiner) reported

    @virginmedia 3 Jan. And they shut it down. I literally can't get hold of anyone. Do you have a direct number or email address for complaints or resolution

  • CraigJThomson69 Dr Craig Thomson (@CraigJThomson69) reported

    @virginmedia Seriously the most insanely bad customer service ever. Almost 5 hours to be connected to an agent on chat. Just a bot that keeps sending the same stupid messages. If I was considering leaving before I'm now looking at other options.

  • PPMI_Innocence PPMI (Progressing Prisoners Maintaining Innocence) (@PPMI_Innocence) reported

    @ManInTheMoon_2 @virginmedia That's terrible!

  • JoanneH48007778 Joanne Hunt (@JoanneH48007778) reported

    @virginmedia @doncaster_free What a joke..says quickest way to complain is online!!! Helps if you have Internet!! Weeks now without out oh & the phone and TV. Signing up in Dec was the worse thing I did!! I'll send a carrier pigeon with my complaint, you might receive it quicker than you fixing my issues!
