    @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?

    @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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • EmsAlice Ems ☾ (@EmsAlice) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia It’s now been more than 48 hours and once again our catch up services and virgin media store is down and unavailable ... this time with no known local issue. What am I meant to do?

  • 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 !

  • EmsAlice Ems ☾ (@EmsAlice) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia We managed to get through to your team on the phone yesterday and they said they will call us back. It started working again yesterday evening but it’s an on and off problem we have had for weeks so needs looking into properly which I hope will happen soon.

  • TheonlyJonesy Martyn Jones (@TheonlyJonesy) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia don’t worry about supplying a service that I can use to work from home, I’d much rather leave the house in a pandemic to access stable broadband...!!!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • McFadden1985 James McFadden 🎮 (@McFadden1985) reported from Camberley, England

    My @virginmedia has completely gone down. On a Friday night & good Friday of all days. TV is completely blank 😣

  • 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!

  • 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

  • JulianHull Julian Hull (@JulianHull) reported from Farnborough, England

  • andycoldicott Andy Coldicott (@andycoldicott) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia, thanks for rolling my unused mobile data over for the next month. Now if you could just sort your rubbish service out so I can actually use it that would be great. Thanks. Bye. x

  • Amandaajxx Amanda (@Amandaajxx) reported from Westhoughton, England

    Everyone in westhoughton hasn’t had any service for a week now! @virginmedia I want compensation 😤😤😤😤

  • Amandaajxx Amanda (@Amandaajxx) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @emmerrr_triciaa @virginmedia Everyone in my area has the same problem 😠

  • djleumas Jon Samuel (@djleumas) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia shockingly bad customer service for the last 3 days trying to sort an issue with 2 different orders and being told for 2 of those days that we don’t exist. Now means we have missed out on the deal we really wanted. Please can our issue be sorted.

  • drummerJ83 Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Hi thanks already tried lots of this and we've only had the problem for past couple of days so I can't see why it would be an issue with the Ethernet cable or positioning.

  • Gordon_Keenan Gordon Keenan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Gordon_Keenan) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @ramfrancisuk @robmckenzieuk @virginmedia Well this is a new business install... The lack of why there is a problem is the infuriating part. More so, I've taken two days out of my holiday to be there for their install engineers.

  • debswild DEBS WILD (@debswild) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia You are way too late! You ignored a bunch of us yesterday when we had outage for over 24 hours. Suddenly the mention of @BBCWatchdog & you're interested. Nah. Forget it. After chasing for hours, the eventual information was - as usual - vague & inaccurate.

  • CoventryDean Dean Coventry (@CoventryDean) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @virginmedia That’s fine and that’s what I been trying to do since Saturday but been cut off about three time ms after a long wait on hold and other times just been on hold for ages I’ve heard a lot about the virgin after sales and customer services lately which now I can see y

  • SamuelHill98 Sámuel Hill (@SamuelHill98) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia the Sky Sports red button service is a shambles

  • Gordon_Keenan Gordon Keenan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Gordon_Keenan) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @robmckenzieuk @ramfrancisuk Well…. I’m finding out the hard way that @virginmedia are extremely slow in getting me up and running with a new business installation. On to day three after install, with it not working…
