@nickkzie @scazz786 @virginmedia I have their business broadband, it's been awful. I then pulled the Internet cable out of the modem and fell back on the 4G backup on my plan. Fixed. I'll plug the cable back in tomorrow and get my speed back.

@PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

@virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

@virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

@virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

@virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

@virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

@virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

@virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

@emilyk1992 @virginmedia This is the virgin media way. I have a repair date for 7th august which is 3 weeks from them being told and it took 3 appointments and 5 hours of dealing with their lying, inept customer support staff. RUN AS FAR AND AS FAST TO ANOTHER PROVIDER.

Virgin Media have emailed to say our current contract is coming to an end and we will be charged another £50 a month in future. Wtf? Now I'll have to phone to challenge it. Fed up of all this @virginmedia

(@CleanzineEditor) reported
@mickharkin68531 @virginmedia Whenever folk post on social media that they're looking to change their provider, locals response with recommendations/steer clears & often include prices they pay. It certainly doesn't look as if I've been saving 40%! I'd happily pay more for a good service though

@virginmedia I've been told by your tech support that I won't be able to access my emails for 48 hours because of issues your end with the Virgin Media O2 ID process. I think you ought to be upfront about telling customers that there's a major issue.

@WhichUK have you heard about the latest epic email fail from @virginmedia and @O2? Something to follow up next time you survey the best and worst broadband & email providers...
