    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I have. They were not great. I did explain that the voice options stated there was an issue. However, your email said it would have been sorted last week. You breached the 6 hour window and the 5 people I spoke to in Timbuktu didn't understand me all that well 🤦#poorservice

    @virginmedia took out new contract. Been waiting 2 days for the service to be activated and have been promised 2 call backs to help resolve the issue which has I have not had. Very poor service indeed.

    @virginmedia still trying to sort broadband.Was promised a booster, no show.Calling to report a fault.Disconnected calls Again. Taking up hours of my time. customer service appalling. raising own complaint with offcom as you couldn’t be bothered to give me results of last one

  • Hywel79
    Hywel (@Hywel79) reported from Swansea, Wales

    You'd think when @virginmedia sent out a new router it'd be one that works better than the old one, apparently not though, this ones shite as well. 3 days in a row, three seemingly random bouts of just not working

  • KevDocChild
    Kevin Child (@KevDocChild) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia you really are impossible!20+ years as a customer, you invite me to get in touch to discuss my end of contract choices, then provide the lamest excuses when I try but fail! Mmm #timeforachangeofprovider

  • SimonLew87

    @virginmedia An engineer came out but still not working properly.

  • Jackson_SCFC
    Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.

  • MrandMrs50Plus
    MrandMrs50Plus (@MrandMrs50Plus) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia So you can't supply daughter's new house with broadband and so insist on a termination fee?!? They don't want to terminate. You're the ones who can't honour the contract! Can you please help here?

  • SimonLew87
    S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hey I’ve done everything on your website and still the same issues.

    @MrsSusanAlder @virginmedia They're a nightmare but won't do anything to fix it now during the pandemic, but expect full payment it's a joke x

    @mb1984 @virginmedia glad it's not only me with this issue mate 😂. very poor

  • Adamcroft1996
    Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia He apparently told my neighbour that it will just come on at some point tonight? I don’t really hold a lot of faith with that as he had no idea what the issue was?

  • Vanilla__Slice
    Sarah (@Vanilla__Slice) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I'm moving home at the weekend so engineer's came out to the new property today to connect the outside cables to the house. They were unable to as the neighbours are using that cable. Hope you can help.

    Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported

    10 years. 50M+ users. £11M+ revenue impact. Citibank. Mercedes. Sky. Virgin Media. NatWest. I spent a decade fixing conversion problems at companies most startups would kill to work with. what I learned: the same broken patterns show up everywhere - onboarding that loses people in the first 60 seconds, pricing pages that confuse instead of convert, signup flows with friction nobody ever fixed. now I build the same systems for funded startups.

  • fergal_hickey
    Fergal Hickey (@fergal_hickey) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Shocking Virgin Media Mobile. Can’t receive calls from Vodafone numbers for 6wks now. Now told it’s a widespread problem after being fobbed off for a month. Not good enough - VM should have been honest with subscribers and advised them but chose deceit instead

  • truthtellerGB
    TheseColorsDontRun (@truthtellerGB) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia What’s more insane is that you are using Virgin Media. One of the worst service provider in the UK alongside O2.

  • Gbarch1
    megb (@Gbarch1) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia virgin media has been totally down since 28th May at 10pm. Many people in my area are affected. The potential fix date has been moved forward several times. The latest is 1st June at 12. They haven't given any explanation and their Whatsapp is suspended. Help!

  • garyb007
    Gary Broadbent (@garyb007) reported

    @TezzaBelle88 @virginmedia Yep, pretty standard. By miles, the worst customer service I've ever experienced. What's more, nobody seems to want to improve it.

  • pwmcomms
    Paul W Mitchell (@pwmcomms) reported

    Upgraded to new @virginmedia box. Wish I hadn't. Streaming requires more logins than before, main box has to be on elsewhere in the house to delete recordings and pushed all manner of crap shows. Off to look at alternatives

  • AftergloSurrey
    Afterglo-Surrey (@AftergloSurrey) reported

    @virginmedia as normal another **** up from Virgin media how are they still doing business? Oh is it because they just take your money and don’t give a **** about service? Probably

  • Urban__Groove
    Urban Groove (@Urban__Groove) reported

    @virginmedia I'll ring tomorrow instead as im really F***** pissed off right now with you and your dog **** o2 partner 😡

  • LaraMitchard
    Lara Mitchard (@LaraMitchard) reported

    @virginmedia There seems to be a broadband issue in HP1 as I have no services and your outage page has identified an issue. Any idea how long this will be down?

  • cschmeer
    Christian Schmeer (@cschmeer) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you, but unfortunately there’s no alternative placement as the next power socket would be through a wall and 10 meters down the hallway, which might help with the overheating, but it all my network connections run to the cupboard by the entrance.
