    @virginmedia After being on hold for over 50 minutes I had to end the call. I’m literally back to square one. That’s the problem.

    Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Again, I appreciate what you're saying, but similarly I've had an engineer to my house and he said that within the parameters of his test, that my connection should be better than average. This is an issue with how my connection is being routed.

  • eightieschick72
    Charmaine Rome (@eightieschick72) reported

    @virginmedia Sorted out. But it would have been nice if your customer service had checked outages first before spending an hour taking me through things that clearly wouldn’t have worked because an engineer had chopped through a live “in the area” and the whole area was down!

  • Naish2Martin
    Martinius (@Naish2Martin) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia I hope for your sake that you don’t get technical issues with Virgin. I changed to them twice from Sky, they were awful !

  • fredbeare
    Davie G 🇬🇧 (@fredbeare) reported

    Why is such a pain to contact @virginmedia to become a new customer, and even when you do the sales team don’t listen. Will just stick with BT not because they’re good, just because Virgin don’t listen

  • AvaniEbony666
    Rebecca Réva (@AvaniEbony666) reported

    @virginmedia sort out your services! Your boss is a lazy lying twonk that doesn't give a crap for poor quality!!! I hope other wifi providers have got better offers for me!!!!

  • freeITstafford
    Free I.T. Stafford (@freeITstafford) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia All well and good until you get actual problems and need customer service (and you will).

  • Keith_Bredrin
    Keith (@Keith_Bredrin) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sky don't answer the phone when you want to cancel. Their sales team claim they can't put you through either. Cretins.

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Let’s hope you never have to call customer services 🥴

  • Will_Willsher
    Wil Wilser (@Will_Willsher) reported

    @virginmedia I've had this message when trying to watch recordings for weeks, I finally tried calling today (after trying power on/off) only to hear the message 'you haven't been given access to this service' then cut off. Such poor service, especially considering what I'm £££

  • Vicky51308928
    Vicky 💖 (@Vicky51308928) reported

    @virginmedia have some cheek charging what they do for a very unreliable service! No offer of paying you back for the time you are unable to use your devices in the house. Thankfully I have mobile data. Yet again my child who has no understanding is distressed.
