@virginmedia Well this is a cracking start. A call back tomorrow rescues the situation. Been a virgin customer since broadband came along. Fingers crossed.

@virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.

@virginmedia I spoke to an advisor called Gillian from Sheffield and she escalated my numerous complaints on Saturday. Promised a manager call crack but I got nothing . It’s getting to the stage that the best course of action would be to cancel the lot but that won’t get my landline back

@virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

@virginmedia whenever I’m on zoom upstairs and away from my route my wifi always seems to drop out. It’s always says my internet connection is unstable. I’ve restarted router etc is there anything else I can do to boost it

@virginmedia I finally got through to a real person via text today and booked a landline appointment, although It’s not the anytime plan that I wanted . Never had so much trouble switching provider. Almost not worth it.

@virginmedia after five years of custom you would rather me terminate my contract that provide me with the new router that you promised me as part of my new deal! Diabolical service!

And the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....

@virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband

@virginmedia I have been trying to get through to yourselves for weeks constantly put on hold !! I have intermittent WiFi for months now I was told by yourselves that a WiFi booster might help but I have to ring to organise this but yet I can’t get through

(@EllieMursParish) reported
@virginmedia No I haven't been able to speak to someone regarding the actual complaint, no one on the customer service team is able to resolve or put me through to someone senior. I am waiting for a call back from someone which definitely won't happen as I've been told this 3 times before.

@virginmedia I’ve been with VM for years, but the customer service is horrendous. No empathy, no using one’s initiative, passing the customer onto another team. You need to do better than this for long-standing customers.

@MyFirstTrainers @virginmedia Good luck with Wi-Fi booster... didn’t help me at all .. virgin engineer said their equipment wasn’t very good and told me the only solution was to buy a Wi-Fi mesh system.. £200 later problem solved .. unfortunately virgin couldn’t sort my Wi-Fi hell out

@virginmedia My daughter had to make 2 phone calls to your customer service department to resolve a problem with her new TV box in November last year. She was almost 2 hours on the phone & then an engineer visit solved the problem. Engineer admitted the setup instructions were at fault.

@virginmedia I tried that on Tuesday, waste of my time trying to ring you as you never answer, so you have all my details so e mail me the final bill and I’ll happily pay for the last month.

@virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp It’s a residential account! Unfortunately, I feel like I’m paying more for a service, as you know doesn’t work! Now it’s time for those 7 plus calls to get the bill sorted! Or getting through to the right person!

@virginmedia Yes it's the virgin v6 box, both have been rebooted. Automated check on the phone said there were 'no issues detected' but the picture is still distorted massively (unwatchable levels)

@virginmedia Atm it's OK but it is always going off or we can't get WiFi properly. Tried ringing you up but it's impossible to speak to an actual person. Very poor service.
