    @virginmedia no broadband since last Thursday, can’t get through to your customer service. Engineer came last week as we’ve struggled with your service for months, he put a new hub in and guess what.... it worked for a day! Now waiting for another engineer to come. Not happy 😡

    @virginmedia Hi - can you help as I'm confused? I'm paying £53.50 for M350 broadband with prices rising in March. Looked on your website today and it says M350 is £38.99.

    @virginmedia 1 hour and 42 minutes queueing for a help desk operator to take a call from an 87 year old “shielding” old lady who can’t set up her self install box. Absolutely shoddy customer service. You should be ashamed.

  • gazsax Gary Saxby (@gazsax) reported

    @virginmedia hi guys can you confirm if you are having any broadband issues in the SM4 postcode. Your email says it’s fine then issues then fine again.

  • MueenPasha5 Mueen Pasha (@MueenPasha5) reported

    @virginmedia I am contacting them through Whatsapp, as my previous experience calling is that I will wait ages to get through, then the advisor will hang up or disconnect the call either by mistake or because they don't want to deal with the matter.

  • lns2022uk LN Complains (@lns2022uk) reported

    @virginmedia Maybe i'm getting old before my time, but when I was younger and infact worked in call centers myself, when someone said "can i speak to a manager" they could speak to one on that call not wait 72 hours to speak to them. In what world is that good customer service?

  • leonspight Leon Spight (@leonspight) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there what’s the issue in TW12 as all services TV, phone and broadband have been down since approx 10am. Also the Virgin Media mobile service appears to be impacted as well as services are running very slow?

  • CreasyEmma Emma Creasy (@CreasyEmma) reported

  • BatgirlRocksxo Gem (@BatgirlRocksxo) reported

    @virginmedia No, didn’t know there were issues in the area. A lot of households in the area lost wifi around 9am this morning, which is when this “work” began, supposed to have finished by 3pm but we still can’t get online. Router is solid green line or flashing green line and green arrows.

  • BarrySalkin Barry Salkin (@BarrySalkin) reported

    @virginmedia Because you’d not want to be sure to give correct info on notice to disconnect in a thread about customer being given incorrect info on notice to disconnect… Folks who didn’t have any other option for TV (if reasons not to have a Sky dish) and/or folks who previously only (1/n)

  • Seb_lr Seb (@Seb_lr) reported

    @virginmedia adopted a new sales technique? Placing orders on my behalf without myself explicitly confirming if I’d like to proceed, then calling to fix the issue and being told I can’t cancel it…

  • TomFoolerySays Tom Parker (@TomFoolerySays) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry but that's unacceptable, I've now got to call you for the 18th time to sort the same issue. I've lost days of work, money and patience down to this. I expect my broadband to be fixed tomorrow and a reimbursement of my funds.
