Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England@virginmedia Dear ‘RP,’ I find your tone unacceptable. I don’t care how many times you’ve had to repeat the statement; customers are paying for a service they’ve not been getting, so dial down your level of obnoxiousness please.

Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Swindon, England@matt_hanson70 @virginmedia Intermittent for 2.5 days, Sunday always v poor the worst is 0.4mbs with a 250mbs supply. VM's script always saying reboot etc.. Funny though following reporting an issue a week ago I suddenly recorded 256mbs for an hour then it slowly drops to normal! First ever hitting supply.

-
Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, EnglandHad an @virginmedia broadband outage on Sunday for 2 hours. Since then, connection so spotty that I'm getting 10 seconds of completely dropped packets followed by 20 seconds of slow-as-molasses ping times once every 10 minutes.

Adie Hughes (@AdieJAMster) reported from Swindon, England@virginmedia Internet has been down again for the whole night. When I spoke to you about the recent last 6 times it’s been down you said there was no issue! Looks like whole of UK was down now yet our bills go UP & UP & UP! #virginmedia
-
Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM
-
Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported from Swindon, England@virginmedia @ste1984r But YOU say 'intermittent' loss when it isn't. It's FULL loss of service. And to only compensate after 2 days is crazy.
-
Scott badham (@scbadham) reported from West Bromwich, England@virginmedia really disappointed in the service lately all it does is keep dropping. I’ve had no Internet services for the last hour again the fourth time this week and it’s still not working

Howard Martin 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England@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!

Andy Rossiter (@andy_rossiter76) reported@virginmedia Who's bright idea was it to switch landline phones over to digital optic ?? We have the landline in the livingroom, but the internet hub is in the bedroom. Also when the internet goes down, will this mean the phone goes down too ??

YorkshireB'stard (@Phil197881) reported@TheGriftReport I have the same problem with Virgin media, their call centre is in India and more than once I've just rung off after not understanding what the guy said.
-
Charlotte Riggio (@MsLiberty1776US) reported@virginmedia you know what would be great? If your phone system worked so your agents could hear customers and not hang up on them saying there’s no response
