    @virginmedia Hello, my broadband was supposed to be installed on 6th Sept but your engineer only did half a job and ****** off. When I call up to find out when you're coming back to finish my installation, I can't get a straight answer and nobody calls me back! Shite service!

    @virginmedia I haven’t seen the credit applied yet, that’s the issue. This will be the 4th time that I’ve been told it’s been corrected and to wait around 24 hours but so far this has never worked

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

    @virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me

    @virginmedia I'm checking online and it's saying there is an issue with the TV, but saying broadband is fine. I've had constant disconnections throughout the day for 2 weeks now. It works for a few minutes then goes off. What is going on?

    Absolute nightmare trying to watch @SkySportsF1 on my phone because of how poor @virginmedia are especially since merging with @o2, used to just put email and password in, now going around in circles with same message asking me to verify email link and switch, very poor practice.

    @virginmedia I’ve just been advised by your customer team in chat there is no larger remote for the 360. For someone who is sight impaired this is unwelcome news.

  • debbym
    Debs 😇 (@debbym) reported

    @virginmedia I have been a customer for over 20 years and been told today that my monthly bill will go from £141 to £213 when my current contract expires in May. I don’t know how you get away with such an increase for loyal customers. I shall NOT be renewing my contract 🤬

  • MsLiberty1776US
    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

    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @Oldbloke74 @virginmedia I have to admit the bloke on the call centre helpline was really nice and helpful but the problem was he seems to just have been making up stuff to make me happy with what I heard as what he said and what has actually happened aren't even close to being in the same postcode 😢

    @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years but the customer service I've received today is extremely worrying. Everyone has been polite and tried to help, but still my package is all wrong. This needs rectifying immediately or your major competitor will be gaining new custom
