    Having real problems with our broadband dropping out regularly @virginmedia. Any known issues in the SS8 area?

  • joniread68 Jon Read (@joniread68) reported from Great Baddow, England

    Any @virginmedia customers out there who’ve been landed a price increase - just ring them on 03454541111 and the automated service immediately offers you a £4.50 pm discount for 6 months = £27 of savings. Bit of a weird way of doing business but obvs hope many just suck it up. 👍

  • owensirons93 Andrew Owen (@owensirons93) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

  • becshawyer Becca (@becshawyer) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia disgusting customer service ... after months of issues still not being resolved our latest phone call after raising a complaint the customer service representative hung up on me! Getting to the point now where we will be leaving 😡

  • MrsDyer25 Laura Dyer (@MrsDyer25) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @virginmedia So what can be done to improve the technical issues we are having? Could it be our equipment?

  • tolu_____ Tolu (@tolu_____) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp @virginmedialife After almost two weeks of no service awaiting a repair it’s not ok to expect a mum and her kids to remain at home awaiting your arrival for you to fail to show up twice in a day #poorcustomerservice #noshow #ShameOnYou

  • sean_m1987 Sean (@sean_m1987) reported

    @virginmedia @bezzyboy88 Pretty sure he’s reporting a known service issue in his tweet, doubt he gives a rats arse about anyone else’s in his area

  • phia32 Soph 🌳 (@phia32) reported

    @virginmedia I have been attempting to cancel my installation for a week now and have got nowhere. Please contact me urgently as it cannot go ahead as the house move has fallen through

  • JuliaHMuir Julia Muir (@JuliaHMuir) reported

    @virginmedia Of course I've tried. Complaint button takes to page not found. The chatbot says its handing me to an agent -that was an hour ago & no agent has appeared. These systems are put in place to foil any attempt to make a complaint in writing. Phone operators just apologise then lie.

  • MarkCBooth Mark Booth (@MarkCBooth) reported

    @virginmedia First one was Sunday 9/10 and second was maybe 10 days later. Complaint ref showed on screen as 4 asterisks so sorry, can’t help with that one.
