Julie McCarthy (@jooz282) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia It was a little more than short lasting pixelation! The channel kept dropping completely and during the main fight it felt like we were watching in slow motion.

There appears to be an issue with my account I have the ultimate ooomph package if that matters.
-
grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia A number of times. But let’s be honest, they’re nothing but messengers. There is no escalation, and they can’t even call the construction company to escalate issues. As someone who has worked within many projects teams, and mapped business processes, yours is simply shocking

Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia This is a long story. But Virgin have changed my IMEI number making a second repair not possible. My account is down and even Virgin can't access it. I've been promised calls back several times but they've not happened. The litany of Virgin failures is impossible to put in a text
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@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.

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
-
ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@bushontheradio Trying to get through to Virgin media to cancel the contract. Bloody chatbot isn't worth a ****

mancs boi (@DjmarkieT) reported@virginmedia your service is a joke, internet down since Friday at 2pm update to say fixed midnight, then 4pm yesterday, then updated to 19th at 0:04 and now 20th at 16:04 that means I cant work tomorrow YOUR A JOKE time to LEAVE!
-
Jack Gilpin (@jackgilpo) reported@virginmedia It does, and it’s usually fixed before then. But if it’s failing at the same time every day clearly the fix isn’t fixing the actual problem as it keeps happening
-
Rorschach Slays🇸🇮🇪🇺🇬🇧 (@RorschachSlays) reported@misselledee @virginmedia This is normal. My friend has been on a broken line for weeks now. Engineers came out 3 times. His internet is still worse than his mobile internet. Virgin is saying everything is ok. Engineers barely know much more than: Let's reboot your router. Get out. Get City Fibre.
-
Owly McHoot (@OwlyMcHoot) reported@mobily_uk @virginmedia Way back 30 years ago I worked for cable and wireless up at Seacroft; the retentions team called themselves The Dream Team; they got a bonus for each customer who threatened to cancel they converted to a retention-when you call, drive that deal down as they have a lot of scope.
-
Jo Broughton (@BroughtonJo) reported@virginmedia No WiFi since Wednesday, apparently Engineers are ‘working hard to resolve the issue’ except having driven the entire area…no Engineers working anywhere? just want an honest answer to what’s going on and when it’s going to be fixed
-
Paul Parkin (@kingoftheshed) reported@virginmedia What? On and off for the past 8 days? It just went down again 5 minutes ago. Fix it and compensate me let me leave.
-
Sean Pearson (@soapyrct) reported@mobily_uk @virginmedia Because they expect lots of folk to either not realise or just pay anyway, its also why they make it so difficult to call. Funny you can join and change everything on line except cancel! Virgin are THE worst company for service.
-
DonegalDúnedain 🇮🇪 (@DonegalDunedain) reported@moefitzpatrick I was expecting less support tbh, but the anomaly that is FFG 90 year old voters whose only source of info is Virgin Media and RTÉ will always upset perceived public opinion.
-
David Whiteside (@yardley_canary) reported@virginmedia Being given 4 different values from different sources about what our monthly bill will be was the worst but there are too many to list...
-
Lee Hustle Malone (ACC INACTIVE/NOT MONITORED) (@MaloneHustle) reported@heavyspoilers I think Virgin Media is down mate don’t sweat it.
