I an@self-employed and the one thing I rely on is my internet connection.

Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia Nope. There’s “nothing wrong” with the broadband according to the status page. Never is. It’s always the hub supposedly downloading updates. 10 weeks of this now, getting a bit bored of the lack of service TBH. This needs to be escalated.
-
Natasha Gorrie (@tashaj1984) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia I have posted but not sure how a forum post will help. Can you advise of your official escalation complaint process

Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England@denman79 @virginmedia The irony is that @virginmedia are more like the Pistols -‘No point in asking you’ll get no reply’ and they seem ‘Pretty Vacant’ but ‘Never mind all that…..’ can someone please take some responsibility and ownership that seems to be sadly lacking atm

Deborah Jessup (@Debbiejojessup) reported from Woodley, EnglandTrying to cancel our Virgin Broadband what a nightmare. On hold for 90 mins still no one answers from the cancellation department. #virginmedia @virginmedia

Yes, tried rebooting, off/on etc, status says everything OK, Called yesterday and there IS an issue. When are you going to fix it?
-
gonzo (@pears0) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia We are sorry you are still waiting to be connected to one of the team. Our wait times are very high at the moment due to an unprecedented demand to speak to the team & we are experiencing some issues with our internal systems. This may mean a delay in being transferred to one of

Sharon Leaver (@leaver_sharon) reported from Bracknell, England@virginmedia Sorted now. Received an envelope last week with an adaptor. A leaflet inside stated we would receive an email when to change it. No such email received. Communication very poor
-
Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia *sigh*. Been directed to this many times. Had engineers referred many times. This is a persistent issue that raises its ugly head far too frequently
-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, EnglandReally hard to support brand @virginmedia and recommend them to anyone for Broadband. They may be the only competitor to BT but do you have to compete for last place?
-
6thdr (@6thDr) reported from Wokingham, EnglandToday I finally changed my phone. Goodbye #virginmedia #virginmobile never again shall I have such awful customer service service.
-
Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, EnglandHi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?

gareth moore (@gareth5274) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia any chance of any help, been phoning since Friday and still getting nowhere. Ta.

ShovelTrigger (@ShovelTrigger) reported@whisperwoIf @virginmedia was screwing me over too, was trying to play Fortnite with my Scottish friend and I lagged when in game and then when we reached lobby? My damn PlayStation overheated because of the heatwave
-
Tigrus (@87BabaTigrus87) reported@virginmedia Booooooo you’re ****
-
Addy (@iadnan9) reported@virginmedia @DisneyPlusUK Virgin Media fined £28m over 'deliberately dropping calls' and putting people on hold 'for no reason' Customers trying to cancel or switch were routinely put through the wringer by Virgin's customer service agents, an investigation by the regulator has found.

Alison Metcalfe (@cocowills) reported@virginmedia broadband down again!!PR2 area!!

No Class🇪🇺 🏴🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ (@Veganforever67) reported@BBCNews Another time phoned up virgin media said my internet was running slow. They said no problems. We can give you a discount for the time it's been running slow. They didn't contact me in any way, shape or form and signed me up to a New year's contract.
-
Opeyemi Daniel (@DinaGlyphs) reported@Stsantek @virginmedia Newsflash, @EE is also ridiculous with shady contracts. I hope you never get to cross hairs with them.
-
Septimus McClonk (@clm2071) reportedAbsolutely appalling service from @virginmedia - haven't sent me the equipment you promised, the equipment you have sent is broken on arrival. And over half an hour waiting on chat and call to speak to someone. Absolute joke
-
Dan Worley (@worleyyy) reported@virginmedia You clearly don't take it seriously enough. I've complained multiple times over the last year and because I haven't made a complaint twice in one month you won't do anything and force me to pay a £400 fee to exit my contract. Utter horrendous service!! Worst internet company ever
-
Deano... (@Frugal_ways) reported@benjaminlfc @O2 @virginmedia It's always the private browser software they fail on. Always states, "Access denied to this page" yet the options button asks me if, "I want to log out?" Funny that...
