  • BobBeveridge1 Bob Beveridge (@BobBeveridge1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia When your expensive fibre broadband crashes in the middle of an online meeting with an MP this is bloody frustrating and unacceptable. Your service is often unreliable in the middle of the day. Can it be fixed or do I need another provider as backup?

  • gregemmerson_ Greg Emmerson (@gregemmerson_) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Completed the tests with the app, one room poor coverage

  • BagshotTwit Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia I had my phone on me all day and didn’t have any missed call message. I have called numerous times and no progress. I understand you also can’t help me.

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I can't sign in as I no longer hold an account, your CS don't care and obviously fobbing me off and not raising complaints as requested, I will just pursue via FCA and/or trading standards.

  • KathyMck1962 Kathy mckenry (@KathyMck1962) reported from Reading, England

  • DoughnutDoney Doughnut Doney (@DoughnutDoney) reported from Benson, England

    @virginmedia plz stop calling me asking if I want an upgrade. Been a loyal customer for over 15 yrs and its getting annoying now. Yes my phone is due for an upgrade but only when I want it. So plz when you say Im on the 'has been contacted list' stick with that 😞

  • BagshotTwit Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia I upgraded to the Ultimate Oomph package in Jan but still waiting for the order to be completed. I’ve contacted customer services on numerous times but no success, I’ve also raised a complaint. How do I actually get some help to complete the order?

  • PhilipFurlong2 Philip Furlong (@PhilipFurlong2) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia They say it's company policy and as it's with IT they can no longer help! 1 week and no further forward.

  • gareth5274 gareth moore (@gareth5274) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia any chance of any help, been phoning since Friday and still getting nowhere. Ta.

  • AlisonJaneWilso Alison Jane Wilson (@AlisonJaneWilso) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia truly awful company stuck in the dark ages why would you trust them with broadband when after 3 months notice to quit they take full payment and then you have to apply for a refund !!! Company run by dinosaurs looking for opportunities to rip you off when leaving !

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Hi see first tweet in chain, I have been waiting on CS whom I called and raised a call back complaint request with before I tweeted my frustration

  • DawnFabbricatti Dawn Fabbricatti🇿🇦🇮🇹 (@DawnFabbricatti) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia You LITERALLY cannot be serious right now? Is this how you believe my issue will be solved? And yes, in the last 19 days I have rebooted twice.

  • vikingmarta89 Marta (@vikingmarta89) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia why since Monday is so bad signal in Reading West ? I’m not able to work !

  • 6thDr 6thdr (@6thDr) reported from Wokingham, England

    Today I finally changed my phone. Goodbye #virginmedia #virginmobile never again shall I have such awful customer service service.

  • gonnella Pete (@gonnella) reported from Woodley, England

    @mattlintott @NetXL_dot_com Nice 👍🏻 got gig1 from @virginmedia but the upload is awful only 50mbit. Hope it gets increased to at least 100mbit soon.

  • flyingjok John Neilson (@flyingjok) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia Worst part of it @virginmedia is the way your customer service team speaks to customers. Quite appalling and in my experience always approached on basis that the customer is wrong. It consistently bad - to be told you don’t send texts when I clearly had two texts quite insulting!

  • ciro_ipswich Ciro De Lellis (@ciro_ipswich) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia had presale tickets this morning ready to purchase, all logged in the app with my VM login details for o2 priority. When I got to the checkout it takes me to the o2 website where I can’t log in using my VM details?!

    @virginmedia what a bunch of kunts you really are tv and broadband on and off for over a week but compensation only applies for full disruption for minimum of two days how you can get away with providing such a **** service is beyond me

  • StevenCWallis Steven Wallis (@StevenCWallis) reported

    @virginmedia No one made you have a Philippines call centre! I have a right to speak to someone who can understand and resolve this issue. It’s been going on for over 2 months and you don’t care!

  • digininja Robin (@digininja) reported

    @virginmedia Talking to the external workers, they said people never know they are coming and often have access problems, so you might want to add that to the list of things customers are told about in the reminder calls

  • Kerrieball81 Kerrie 🇬🇧 (@Kerrieball81) reported

    @virginmedia I've had the same issue crap

  • djrickyk DJ Ricky K (@djrickyk) reported

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler can you please step in and help? These guys are looking for a way out of getting an engineer to visit my property to fix the wifi connection (that a virgin engineer changed without my knowledge or permission).

  • Alex_Scribb Alex (@Alex_Scribb) reported
