@virginmedia can you tell me f it’s acceptable to be on hold for 48 minutes. After which to finally speak to someone who is unable to resolve your issue and who puts you over to another dept for you to be on on hold for another 30 minutes?

Thanks to @virginmedia they install new broadband which worked for about 5 minutes. Now nothing. Follow all instructions to fix. Waited 5 hours this morning for the privilege and now 1 hour on phone still on hold Should have paid attention to the terrible reviews #wastedmyday 🤬

@virginmedia cut off by Jack. 1 hour spent on hold today, 3 online conversations dropped. Told I am allowed to cancel for free, then I have to pay to cancel. Told my price is going up, told it isn’t. Which is it? Get in touch with me. I don’t want my next call with @Ofcom instead

So the internet provided by @virginmedia won’t connect to either my phone, or the PS4 I’ve had nothing but issues since the family had the internet line installed... and recommendations on who to look at moving to?

@virginmedia I’ve been trying to get hold of a ‘real’person for a week now with no success to cancel my internet! It’s an absolutely shocking service and the wifi is no better ( when it was working) so is there a real person replying on Twitter at all ?

@virginmedia Let’s be honest it always says there’s no issue, but yes we checked it and it says nothing. It went off this morning at about 11 and in the past 15 mins it’s gone off 3 times

@virginmedia Yes we checked. No-one would answer phone as you’re so busy with fault complaints. We paid for your top service, over £90 a month. We are now in the midst of moving to Sky because quite frankly, enough was enough with your dreadful service!

@virginmedia house is 3 storeys, 6 bedrooms. A beast of a house & the router is right at the front & on the ground floor. I need a magician not an App to get the signal from the router to anywhere other than the room alongside it or above it. The only resolution is to move the router + 3pods

@virginmedia It just gets worse. Over 2 hours on the phone, 2 dropped calls and still not anywhere nearer sorting this situation out. Your service is terrible. I think an ofcom complaint is in order here.
