@virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

@virginmedia you are an absolute shambles and that’s me being polite .... countless amounts of calls, hours on end of holding on the line and trying to resolve a very simple issue and it is STILL not resolved ..I am beyond frustrated now and will never ever use you again

So @virginmedia lie to you and then don't respond to you or follow up your phone request to make a complaint. Why did i ever leave Sky! The service has been shocking, wouldn't recommend Virgin to anyone

@virginmedia I cannot express just how disappointed I am with your service. My broadband has been dire for over a week now. Constantly dropping out, slow speeds and just not fit for purpose. First thing I’m doing is switching providers when this is all over. Never again virgin..

@virginmedia A thousand times. On a chat all day yesterday and was promised someone would call me, no one did. To say this is the worst customer experience I have ever had would be an understatement.

@virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

@bt_uk wow yesterday I rang BT to complain about overcharges and was told the systems were down and they would ring me back, well nearly 24hours later am still waiting. Worse customer service ever, how do they stay-in business, virgin media here I come!!

@SamFitzAuthor @virginmedia Mine is £15 more. Who gets the money? 3.2 million customers. Customer service is abroad. They barely have any technicians. You have to install and troubleshoot by yourself. If it is a minimum a tenner per person that is at least 32 million quid.

@virginmedia @LouiW You keep saying someone is working on it, but I waited over an hour on webchat, was promised you'd contact me and gave me a ticket number but nobody contacted me. Can't connect to email for 5 days. Need emails urgently. Appalling service

@virginmedia I wish to cancel the bundle I agreed on Monday and am well within the 14 day cooling off period but was told on the phone that I can’t even though my new bundle service isn’t even live?!

@virginmedia so not only the virgin wifi has been out for almost 24 hours but @Virgin mobile 4g is not working. I did a speed test and I got 10 mbps download speed, 0.8 mbps upload speed and apparently they have good coverage in my area. WHAT A JOKE Time to switch #virginmobile

@Aklamio @virginmedia I contacted customer support. There was no support forthcoming and a very dismissive response. I suspect incognito mode prevents cookies working but I’m not aware there were stipulations on this when applying the code.

@shrlgrl @virginmedia Yep! And it’s all the ‘we’ll do ALL we can to help if you’re struggling!’ Please don’t patronise us with your bs! I’ve asked for help and got zero! That’s what 10 years of loyalty gets you! Worst of the worst!
