@virginmedia why has my mobile signal strength dropped now Virgin Mobile is piggybacking off Vodafone? Used to be full strength when you used EE.

Can anyone tell me how you get @virginmedia to respond to and deal with complaints? I am at the end of my tether with them! I have raised 4 complaints now and they have unsatisfactorily responded to 1 which I called back about to keep the complaint open only for them to close...

@virginmedia It’s the WIFi and what can you do about it? I’ve been a customer for many many years and this issue is causing aggravation. Surely I should expect uninterrupted service all day every day. It’s not cheap either is it??

@virginmedia Absolutely atrocious customer service! Waited for my Hub 4 to arrive as we are now paying for highest broadband, it arrives and has wrong power cable inside, phoned to sort, on hold for 20 mins then speak to someone who has IT issues and has put us on 40 mins hold!

The award for the worst ever customer service goes to @virginmedia over an hours wait to get through.

I think @virginmedia are attempting to outdo @TUIUK for the worst customer services . I’ve spent 45 mins on hold so far waiting to speak to a human . Doesn’t beat 3 and half hours trying Tui but bless Virgin they’re trying. Just appalling 👍

And now you have been offline for over half a day with your website still saying there is no known issue?! I want to make an official complaint to both @virginmedia and @Ofcom , Your service is appalling and your customer service even worse.

@virginmedia What ******** is my bill £3.50 extra a month. I am only meant to pay £52 a month!!! The fact you want me to pay extra is a joke after your service has been **** the past month. I can’t wait for @Hyperoptic to come to my area then I can leave you ******* scammers.

@virginmedia I will be making a complaint but I need to wait and see if they actually turn up on the 23rd and 25th first as this is the third set of dates given for installation that I have had to ring to get ... no one contacts me to say they are cancelled just wait in for nothing

@virginmedia @Mohamme28143483 I’m the same but you are selling the package as the best internet. It’s unreliable and basically an overcharge for a diabolical service. M500 is the same **** service as before. I’ll be gone when contracts up 🖕🏻

@virginmedia On phone for an hour with customer service then cut off. Bill raised by £20 per month with no warning. Called this morning and spent 5 minutes on option choice then message says you are now closed. Joke service, absolute joke.

@virginmedia Hi, I can never get to speak to anyone. It really is a circle of press 2, press 1 and so on then cut off. Is there anyone I can speak to?
