@virginmedia I’ve just got home from work, after leaving home at 7.20 this morning so destined never to have the problem solved. Perhaps I should cancel my direct debit, that way I will have contact in no time!

@virginmedia the worse customer service I’ve had in a long time. An absolute racket- tv, internet, billing & customer service: all woeful - they allow themselves 28 days to respond to a query & the phone lines are inaccessible - you couldn’t make it up #avoidvirginmedia #crooks

@virginmedia Any idea when the broadband issue for ox145 will be fixed. When I ring 150 I get no actual update, just that you are working on it. I work from home and rely on this. Ta. :)

@virginmedia No I haven't. Even the service status page is down on the website. :( the phone lines tell me you are working on it, which is fabby but would be good to know what the issue is and how serious I suppose. Thanks for coming back to me so quickly though. :)

So @virginmedia seems to have gone down across the whole country simultaneously. Will be interesting to see what the root cause is.

@virginmedia It was changed by your team trying to compete with sky but could not match the like for like with sky so asked to be left as was till my notice period was up. Virgin have made this a very difficult transition and treated a loyal customer with utter contempt

@virginmedia Says there are no issues on phone line. The TV problem has been like that for months but it's so difficult to contact you, that I let it slide. Today I wanted to use it though.

Hi @virginmedia, our upload speed is terribly slow. I can't ring up currently but would love some help through the online chat facility if that's still an option. I can't see anything on your website unfortunately.

@virginmedia - When you are wrongly blocking a website via websafe - resulting in DNS and SLL errors, with no clean block page, who should this be raised to. Have tried tech support without success, they say you do not support gambling sites, which is obviously not accurate.

@virginmedia This outage has been since 13/12, how can that even be possible for a large national internet provider? I don’t think you’re operators are telling us the truth.

@virginmedia Brilliant, thank you! Seems like nothing can be done for a week, so I will be without any service until then! Marvellous! Not good enough, I'm afraid, such shoddy service.

@virginmedia I am a new customer, have had two instillation days cancelled and have been on the phone for 1 hour and 15 and you have cancelled the call. Is this your customer service levels? My partner is not able to work until you have sorted this problem
