    @virginmedia @leanne7585 Mines been down for an hour now too (kent). Did this solution work for you?

  • themacraecase themacraecase (@themacraecase) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia Virgin are terrible. Really terrible. Really, really terrible.

  • retlass Daniel Salter (@retlass) reported

    @virginmedia I have a 200mb plan but rarely get more than 50mb. It’s impossible to contact your customer service department and get stuck in the loop of death. I’ve given up

  • nigelstreet Nigel's Tweet (@nigelstreet) reported

    @virginmedia How can even an estimated wait of 45 mins still be 45 mins after an hour? There are lots of answers, none of them good customer service.

  • downhamdn denise downham (@downhamdn) reported

    @virginmedia I have now received a call back from a manager who has now said will pass to the technical resolution team who will get back to me in 3-5 days which is a worse situation than this morning. I hope anyone considering virgin mobile is reading my messages and taking heed 2 🤬

  • scottisafool Scott Lovegrove (@scottisafool) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Over the last couple of weeks I've seen a big increase in Internet cutouts and I'm not sure whether it's the service or my hub. When it does drop, the hub does seem to behave like I've just rebooted it. Is there a way to check if the hub is faulty and needs replacing?

  • Stevemills76 Steve Milligan (@Stevemills76) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia I’ll be leaving on next contract renewal then, virgin media are the worst for customer service! I’d rather pull my face off and wipe my arse on it!

  • johnjpeebles John J Peebles (@johnjpeebles) reported

    @virginmedia Just to be clear - problem solved by going with your competitor. Not by you.

  • downhamdn denise downham (@downhamdn) reported

    @virginmedia Is that it? Should I be satisfied with this level of customer service?

  • acourt64 Adrian Court (@acourt64) reported

    @virginmedia can you please help me? I've had no business broadband for 6 days now due to a 'national outage' and I can't get a response from anyone as to when it is likely to be restored
