@virginmedia TV completely down this morning ,it’s been intermittent since September nobody helps me just fobbed off. Who is the ombudsman over you I can complain to? I’m no longer prepared to keep paying for services I’m not getting.

@virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

@virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

@virginmedia You have just repeated, word for word, the last tweet you sent me, to which I replied! Pointless trying to have any conversation with @virginmedia because it just goes round in circles! The most appalling customer services in UK in my experience! No more tweets from you, please!

Hi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.

@virginmedia “intermittent signal issues in the area” - LS26 Hi team, can you advise on the above status? Internet started misbehaving around 8.30pm last night and still no better. I rebooted the Hub last night and again this morning. No better.

@virginmedia Shouldn’t have to keep checking a link. This is a constant problem virgin media should sort. Loads are paying for a service where they have to use their mobile data. Can’t wait til my contract is up. Shane it’s in 17 months 🥴

@virginmedia That link accepts complaints up to 30/12/22. Then they have to go through the ombudsman, so I'll place my complaint with the 'grown ups' instead of wasting any more time with @virginmedia. Obvs you are closing your compl dept because you are so bad!

@virginmedia Another wonderful response… this has been going on since mid November. My neighbour has Virgin, so I doubt there is any issue. Being patient gets rather tedious!

@virginmedia Intermittent signal, we have had new cabling, two new hubs and it is still not working properly. I think you are over selling your service. We pay for the top package and are not getting this service.

@virginmedia Yes I've done this been told it's your systems not mine but no guarantee lwhen it will be up and running, may or may not come back at random times... call handler was condescending, very disappointed atm with your usual ok customer service.

(@GillianBower) reported
@virginmedia @Virgin On the phone, your Cust Sv get so far with their tickboxes and scripts then pass me onto someone else. No-one has still told me how to raise my official complaint so I guess I just go to the ombudsman.
