@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?

@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 😞

@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 !

@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!

@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?

@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.

@virginmedia It seems like an isolated incident with our household and nothing we can do here on our end, as I say weve recently just signed up for this package and I desperately need Wi-Fi for my work. (2/2)

(@GabeFearon1) reported
@virginmedia Yes I followed the numpad prompts that take me to data faults where an automated messages says that they are experiencing power outages, however every time I have checked to see if there are any issues with broadband in my area it's all green and no issues reported (1/2)

Peter Meritt-Hall
(@PeterAdamHall) reported
@virginmedia Call back was to explain what happened and what would happen next with regards to getting my connection activated. As I said, your consultant said I would have service from the 7th so for that to change without correspondence to the 22nd isn’t acceptable. How can I WFH full time?

@shebressie @virginmedia Thanks for the link. It is making working from home near impossible. I broadcast for 2 hours, once a week, and every time the connection drops, mid presentation. Eish. Come on Virgin, help us oot!

@virginmedia there is a WiFi outage in my road not showing on your service status. Can’t get help online as telling me to reboot but I don’t think that will fix an area outage in Kt12, please advise?

@virginmedia I've been told this is a 5G ready SIM that's been sent, my phone isn't 5G, will this be another issue I have to deal with when it arrives or is it compatible?
