  • Rainbowztwit Sarah (@Rainbowztwit) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    .@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?

    @virginmedia hi trying to contact someone to request a new remote for our TiVo box but wait times on phone are long can someone help me please - as remote has died thanks

  • CipherGuitars Cipher Guitars (@CipherGuitars) reported

    @virginmedia Had no internet in SS16 since 1am your website now says the issue is fixed but this isn't true, what's going on?

  • Arehdaw Bhavna Wadhera (@Arehdaw) reported

    @virginmedia desperately tying to get my fathers landline fixed. It’s been an issue since last Monday. Cannot get through to you ! Please contact me.

  • rugbyharrison80 Nicholas Harrison (@rugbyharrison80) reported

    @virginmedia I work from home and still manage to respond to customer complaints within the required time frame. Clearly your managers are that busy due to the dreadful service you offer. I’m not worried ...your the ones which have lost a customer because of this.

  • Kiermul Anne Mullen (@Kiermul) reported

    @virginmedia For the present but am seriously rethinking Virgin Media as our TV provider and will be looking at other options. You definitely need to have more staff working. I appreciate these are difficult times but you can’t continue to advertise a service you are not providing.

  • mwangiK Mike (@mwangiK) reported

    Trying on contact @virginmedia all morning to fix a broadband problem. Waiting 30 mins each time and during the call we get cut off. Happened twice now. Can you help and ring us back? #virginmedia

  • PetermcRed Peter mcgoldrick (@PetermcRed) reported

    @virginmedia They have all my previous complaints and all my details. Any reasonable company who cared about their reputation would make an effort and contact me. Disgraceful shambolic attitude to customer care.

  • rugbyharrison80 Nicholas Harrison (@rugbyharrison80) reported

    @virginmedia Not acceptable. Why promise a call back within 48 hours if it won’t be achieved. Clearly a very lax attitude to dealing with customer complaints which explains everything about the company.

  • MattGange Matthew Gange (@MattGange) reported

    @hypomouth @virginmedia I have also been cut off on calls to @virginmedia, no acknowledgement to my complaint letter either

  • LADryanLAD2 Frog 🐸 (@LADryanLAD2) reported

    @virginmedia why is your internet connection so bad today? :/
