  • Rochdale_Cowboy Rochdale Cowboy (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Perhaps try kerpying your internet service 'up' for 26mins. Currently you're up to 17mins past the hour before it fails. Keep practicing.

    @Bluebird_7777 @virginmedia Cancel your direct debit. And when they call you - ask them to fix your box

    @GBRChris_A @virginmedia Not good! Unfortunately my experience of their Customer Service/Technical support when required a couple of years ago was frankly lamentable. Lots of promises absolutely zero action/solutions

  • terrygparrott TGP (@terrygparrott) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia Broadband in GU14 is up and down like a "****** draws". I pay for 350 Mbps but am getting much less than that. I've rebooted and reset my Hub 3, please sort it out!

    @virginmedia And do I need to call again, explain to one agent who then doesn’t get it & I get transferred elsewhere. Happy for UK customer services representative to call anytime. I draw the line on being passed from one person to another and starting all over again. You guys are exhausting

    @virginmedia @vmbusiness just phoned VM customer support & guys in the background shouted “hey it’s God’s brother calling up in Hindi” that customer was of 90 years of age; I found that remarks so appalling. They must treat their customer with respect as they would expect to be
