    @virginmedia TV completely down this morning ,it’s been intermittent since September nobody helps me just fobbed off. Who is the ombudsman over you I can complain to? I’m no longer prepared to keep paying for services I’m not getting.

    @virginmedia Hi there, I have just dialled 150 but it’s constantly engaged. My grandad is having problems with his tv and I need to get it sorted. A technician came 2 weeks ago but it’s gone back to the original problem, how can I contact you regarding this???

    @virginmedia It's not faulty. It's not a wifi or broadband issue. You don't have enough backhaul capacity.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

  • CosmicHustler
    Alien-**** (@CosmicHustler) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia Any chance of some kind gesture of goodwill to a very long-term customer (Telewest days) and long-term isolator due to suppressed immune system, struggling without a working & very necessary distraction...

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Broadband connection and WiFi are stable but connectivity is intermittent-keeps losing connection every few minutes for 30 seconds. This is a network fault but I cannot find an option to report it. B90 1LB

  • lorna_conway
    Doonie (@lorna_conway) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia It's not an issues according to the site. It's working on wired connections. I'll be looking for compensation after this. If the costomer tells you there's a problem then take their word they're the ones paying you, why would they spend money other than to get what they pay for.

    @virginmedia poor doesn’t come anywhere near the description needed for the service you provide for a long term customer who simply needs the OLD Superhub 2ac router replacing. I simply need a replacement sent quickly but must wait for an engineer on Tuesday 4th January.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    3 weeks now with limited TV yet still paying over £100 a month for svcs I’m not getting , I’m fobbed off on the phone that engineers are working on the issues , they’re clearly not can someone reimburse me @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Internet down yet again!!!!! Awful customer service yet again!!!

  • Ade1701
    Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Why is it your call centres and your web chat give no answer for hours on end, and your website constantly falls over returning error messages.... “Whoops! Something went wrong!” Your customer service is a joke!

  • Markycot
    Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    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.

  • villans1982
    Mark Jones (@villans1982) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia yet again broadband down again 2nd time in a week this is getting ridiculous now you charge enough each month and for what crap broadband that always goes off

  • UAVHive
    UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported

    @Edeaulx @virginmedia Having worked in telecoms I can vouch for the fact that Virgin Media's customer service is atrocious and I'd argue is the worst in the industry. I would never be a customer of theirs ever again.

  • 0nlytwogenders
    only2genders (@0nlytwogenders) reported

    @Ofcom can you please investigate @virginmedia I inquired about their service and then declined, since they’ve called me twelve times in two days, I have now had to block their number @richardbranson

  • Fletchmyster85
    Adam Fletcher (@Fletchmyster85) reported

    @virginmedia It's tells me you'll be in touch within 48 hours, it's now over 72 hours and nothing. You didn't send me an email with my ticket details of the complaint, got back to the page to make a note 20mins later and the page had gone. Absolute shambles. Broken service & broken support!

  • wistern1337
    Wistern1337 (@wistern1337) reported

    Sickening it's still hard for customers leave your service despite being fined by the UK government £28m I moved away from your service in March to a new provider. I have been charged over £300 for unused services. Refund refused. Never sign up to ripoff Virgin! @virginmedia

  • mitchhirsty
    Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported

    @Frugal_ways @O2 @virginmedia Frustrating isn’t it? Now imagine that’s the only way you can actually pay the bill and O2 force you onto a promise to pay to restore service, tell you that you must pay, and it’s still not fixed! (Long story. Disabled, only method I can use is via the app or website) thanks O2🙄

  • _J_8_7_
    British and annoyed (@_J_8_7_) reported

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia Definately going to look into them now. Worst part about Virgin is the inconsistent price rises as soon as the contract is up. Had to leave them and join as a new customer pretty much every year just to nearly half the monthly payment. ******* ridiculous.

  • DebbieJRudd
    Debbie Rudd (@DebbieJRudd) reported

    @Jennababes @virginmedia My phone contract was wth 02 then obv merged with Virgin and the customer service is crap! I can’t even get on my account to see usage etc. The man in 02 said we know it’s an issue, I can look and tell you your usage, no, sort your ******* website out so I can see it myself 😡
