@BankerJase @virginmedia I’ve yet to deal with a Virgin Media team that provide decent customer service. Which is why I’ve given up on TV/Telephone. Broadband will only last if they maintain a service.

@virginmedia It’s only been in the past few weeks that it’s gotten so bad. I was getting updates 2 weeks ago from @EE saying they were doing work in my area, but have heard nothing since. Shame you don’t have wi-fi calling

@virginmedia I’m sure you’re really sorry...sorted now without any help from yourselves. I do hope your CEO is aware of how shockingly abysmal your customer service is and I speak from experience.

@gaz112 @virginmedia That'll be the same @virginmedia that sends passwords out by post, complete with other sign in information. They're pretty much a joke at this point.

@virginmedia Your an absolute joke of a company, you charge me £50 a month for broadband and it hasn’t worked for the last 2 months, 4 people in our street have the same problem but yet when an engineer comes out they claim they’ve fixed it when they havent,sort it out,disgrace.

@virginmedia As you can imagine, this has been discussed with many of your team, at length, with no resolution. The response is shambolic. Virgin is seemingly incapable of providing any service whatsoever in our case. Disappointing doesn't cover it, shockingly inept is a start.

@Firesnapper999 @virginmedia Tbh, I've been with them for 12 years and apart from slower speeds in the evenings when gamer neighbours get home from work, I've had few problems. I had my router replaced last year after multiple signal dropouts and it's been pretty good since. 🤞🏻

@virginmedia The hub is NOT 'fine', John! The reception around the house is ****! You practically need to be sitting on the hub to get anything from it. We want a new hub. You need to arrange an engineer out here and provide the service we pay for.
